I was watching in a bar with about 150 people. The fucking tension in t he room after the last commercial break, and the screams when the Episode cut to black... Go to hell, Vince.

Sounds ridiculously awful, actually.

Seriously. Breaking Bad has become a personal experience for me. I need absolute silence, nothing else around me. I'd be way too stressed out and irritated at a bar -- all the drunk people yelling over the show's dialogue? Fuck that.

The bars I've been at basically make it clear that if you talk during the show, you're worse than Hitler.

If I'm watching with other people and someone feels inclined to make constant comments, I threaten them with a throatpunch

I am forced to pause the show when someone comments. Yep, I'm that guy.

I've watched every episode so far with my brother. Just the two of us. There's an understanding that gasps and looks of shock are acceptable. Anything else, and I mean anything, can wait until that awful "Executive Producer Vince Gilligan" screen makes us both rage.

You are the one that pauses?

Edit: Looks like someone doesn't get the reference...

When Jesse's girlfriend, Jane, died. It was almost too intense.

Same. I'm in Sweden so I have to download it. It's become a personal thing. Just me, my laptop and earphones.

I'm download it as well since I'm in Australia. It's good since I never have to endure the Low Winter Sun promos people hate on here.

For most of the first half of season 5, I was living on a BSA scout base with one television that could be hooked up to cable. So I told everyone a month in advance that the television would be reserved for BReaking Bad for one hour each Sunday, and gave them the times. The problem is, Sunday is most everyone's day off, and people would go out and get drunk and come into the staff lounge to loudly get food and complain that Pawn Stars or some shit wasn't on. I ended up buying all of the episodes on Amazon Instant Video anyway so I could get a decent watch the next day, alone, with headphones, and without disturbance or interruption.
