Got them all except the car -- I could picture it, but didn't know the make or model

Level 82

Apr 8, 2014

I missed the car (can't believe 45% got it right. What the heck is an Aztek?) and also Gray Matter Technologies.

Level 58

Aug 3, 2014

It's unique looking. It's widely considered one of the ugliest cars ever and even one of the worst business decisions in recent history. In retrospect however it may have simply been ahead of its time, predicting and preceding the crossover class by several years. It's even beginning to enjoy very modest popularity among collectors. I want one.

Level 81

Jan 30, 2018

It's still ugly. So are many of the crossovers. You are right that is was ugly ahead of its time.

Level 61

Sep 27, 2022

managed to get the car from watching top gear

Level 20

Great quiz!! <3

Level 70

Sep 5, 2012

100% with 2:29 left. My favorite show of all time.

Level 77

Sep 5, 2012

I know I'm being picky but AMC isn't really a TV network, it's a cable channel.

Level 44

Nov 16, 2023

lol

Level 55

Mar 13, 2024

It's actually a pretty reasonable point. there's a pretty big difference between the two

Level 58

Sep 9, 2012

Only 66% know Bryan Cranston's name?! So much for all those Emmys.

Level 82

Apr 8, 2014

Just finished season 4 of this show. Still don't understand how anyone liked it better than Dexter, but okay.

Level 82

Apr 8, 2014

Also just found out that there is a 5th season, which makes no sense. Though I assumed in season 4 that they were going to try to somehow turn Walt into the kingpin... they way that season just ended there is no logical justification for it.

Level 82

Apr 25, 2014

finished season 5. Still don't get it. Good show, just, not as great as everyone makes it out to be. and the last two seasons were getting a bit silly.

Thanks for your input kalbahamut! Everyone was dying to know!

Level 82

Feb 7, 2022

yw, whoever you are. And thanks very much for your input, as well. We were all on the edge of our seats.

Level 36

Jul 14, 2022

I like how you actually respond to someone who responded 6 years later like that's honestly impressive.

If you see this again tho, do you still have the same opinion on brba as in 2014?

I personally just finished watching it a few weeks ago, and I honestly think the last two seasons were brilliant! Especially the second part of season 5 was just filled with action and plot twists.

Level 82

Nov 23, 2022

On repeat viewings I decided that BB holds up significantly better than Dexter and might actually deserve the title of best serial drama of all time.

Level 70

Apr 25, 2014

The first 5 seasons of Dexter were great. Six was utter and complete garbage and the rest weren't that great. Breaking Bad has superior writing and acting, IMO.

Level 82

Apr 25, 2014

I disagree about the writing and acting. I also think Dexter Season 6 > Dexter Season 8 and actually I thought season 7 was one of their best at least up until the part when the Ukrainian guy got shot. But I don't begrudge anyone else their enjoyment of a show/movie/artist/whatever. Even if I don't see what they see in it.

Level 82

Apr 7, 2016

Not that anyone cares... but have rewatched both Breaking Bad and Dexter start to finish... on repeat viewings I find Dexter a bit more silly and soap operaish. Breaking Bad holds up better overall. It has silly and boring moments but the strong ones stand out more.

Level 89

Mar 11, 2020

Initially Walt's wife almost killed the show.

Level 57

Mar 30, 2020

(Replying to the reply) Hating Skyler seems to be about as popular (and misguided) as blaming Yoko for breaking up the Beatles. Not sure what people are hating on- Walt spends the first two seasons lying to her and the rest of the show driven by pride and arrogance far exceeding the reason he broke bad in the first place. I'm not sure which of her actions in particular "almost killed the show" (genuinely interested I'm not just trying to beat up on this comment).

Level 82

Jul 25, 2020

She's just obnoxious. As a character, though, given the situation she is in, I think she behaves more believably than most people sympathizing with her drug kingpin husband give her credit for.

Level 51

Nov 10, 2023

Wtf is dexter

Level 21

Apr 25, 2014

Best. Show. Ever. 100% because YES.

Level 52

Apr 25, 2014

Best show ever

Level 67

Apr 25, 2014

This show's fan base is too devoted for all the questions to be so basic. Anyone who watched this show all the way through would get all of these with no problem. How about asking what object fell from the plane into Walt's pool? Where does Walt stash the ricin cigarette in Jesse's house? What insulting term does Jesse call Todd in the last episode? What's the particular name of Walt's meth? There are so many good trivia questions beyond the names of Skylar and Saul.

Level 82

Apr 25, 2014

This quiz and others like it on the site appear to be aimed more at casual fans than the die hard fan base. You could put all of those questions on your own quiz if you liked. The quiz editor is not difficult to use.

Level 25

May 9, 2014

Not true, I loved loved loved the show, watched it all, but I have a bad memory for details (names like the chicken place for example). Wish I could have remembered everything.

Level 64

Sep 14, 2016

The name of the car is pretty hard and Gale's name is forgettable, non US fans probably struggled with the TV channel as well.

Level 46

Apr 25, 2014

If I recall, the ricin wasn't put in cigarette, but rather into a batch of meth that Walt and Jesse tried to give Tuco. Unless they tried to kill someone with ricin on two separate occasions, which I don't remember happening.

Level 82

Apr 25, 2014

They did try to use ricin on separate occassions. The ricin hidden in the cigarette was a pretty important plot point of seasons 4/5.

Level 58

Dec 17, 2016

Used twice more by Walt in seasons 4/5.

Level 44

May 8, 2014

Ricin is the only spelling I didn't try. Oy. Also blanked on what came after "Los" for the restaurant.

Level 62

Apr 7, 2016

Yeah, it took me ages while watching the show to remember the name of the chicken place. It's probably easier for people in America who live in a place with lots of Latino immigrants. I don't know jack about Spanish.

100% with 2:56 remaining. Too easy!

Here's some more Breaking Bad trivia! http://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/103225/breaking-bad-z

Level 76

Oct 11, 2016

I got them all except Gale. I tried Gail, assumed it was wrong and then couldn't work out who else it could be!

Level 82

Nov 21, 2016

Gail, Skylar, Ricen, should all probably work.

Level 82

Mar 14, 2017

maybe Gayle, as well. Rycen. Heisenburg. Faring/Fering. a lot of tricky spellings

Level 81

Nov 28, 2016

I put Pollo Brothers. {Face Palm}

Level 82

Nov 6, 2017

I tried chicken hermanos

Level 67

Jun 30, 2020

Just finished it the other day, time to watch El Camino and Better Call Saul

Level 32

Jun 14, 2021

Got everything right except for the car, how am I supposed to know what type of car it is?

Level 82

Nov 23, 2022

I'm pretty sure that this is the only question that would be impossible to get if you read a full transcript of the show. You'd have to watch the show, know what an Aztek was, and recognize it on sight.

Level 53

Mar 30, 2023

and only once do i remember it did a close-up on the name of the car...it's a pretty irrelevant part of the show

Level 52

Aug 28, 2023

I knew the aztek through the ERB

"run you over with my Aztek (GTA)"

Level 69

Sep 17, 2023

I always wondered why so many characters have German last names.

New Mexico doesn't particularly have a lot of German ancestry.

Anybody knows what's up with that?

Level 49

Jan 3, 2024

New Mexico actually does have a lot of German ancestry, at 7,9% it's almost tied with English Ancestry. In Albuquerque itself, German Ancestry is even higher at 8,4%

17/19. Not bad considering I’ve watched about 7 episode across the entirety of the show
