What are some other good shows that remind you of Breaking Bad?
It's often compared to The Sopranos, but when I tried it like 3 years ago, it didn't feel for me. I couldn't understand it AT ALL.
I'm looking for some shows that refuse to follow overused mainstream formula while still being universally watchable and made by a creative and diligent showrunner. Should be highly character-driven (based on drastic character development) and ideally a crime show or something adjacent. Something with quality based on incredible writing and that likes to artistically play on the audience's attention, which Breaking Bad turned into a meme.
Ozark is also often common comparison, but I couldn't identify with it either. Although I only saw 2 episodes and I consider trying it again.
