 * "Who's the GOAT, Michael or LeBron?"

 * Breaking Bad : TV's Best Thriller
 * This article begins by synapsing the entire series of Breaking Bad before diving into the psychology of Walter White. A shorter article, the author does not do the best job of really explaining how the show is different from other dramas on TV. A short mention of shows like the sopranos, boardwalk empire, and ozark, sooark an interest in the reader that is never satisfied because of the absence of comparison and analysis in the article.

 * "Why 'Breaking Bad' Is The Best Show Ever and Why That Matters"
 * This is a basic article that explains its reasoning for why Breaking Bad is above the rest. It is a good article for me because it goes along the lines of some of my ideas for the Wikipedia article assignment, where I am considering doing mine on the greatness of Breaking Bad.

 * "Psychopathy and violence: increasing specificity"
 * Another topic I'm interested in, the psychology of psychopaths. This article takes a deep dive into the link of psychopathy and violence found in recent years from when the article is written. The author establishes credibility and uses words and phrases. It explains the science of psychopathy, the traits and symptoms. Only then does the article go into the links between that of a psychopath and the violent acts they may commit.
