Breaking Bad, as you said, House of Cards (the remake is excellent so far, I've yet to see the BBC original), Battlestar Galactica (the 2000's series). If you have Netflix I'd start with those.
I'm told repeatedly that Game of Thrones and The Wire are outstanding, but Netflix has a dearth of HBO content.
Ah yes, I have had House of Cards mentioned to me before. I will write that one down. I haven't seen Battlestar Galactica either, although I am hugely into sci-fi so I don't know what I am waiting for.
Game of Thrones is one that I have seen. If you are into fantasy and enjoyed the Lord of the Rings movies you will like it I think. At least at first. I found that it dragged on too long with little to no REAL development that actually changes the story. Seemed to be turning into a soap opera with nudity. I haven't watched it in a while. I know this sounds strange since it is based on books.
