Good show, content review is a bit misleading (Spoiler Alert).
Unfortunately, the review on Common Sense Media only covers the first couple of episodes of the first season. It also does cover the DVD version (as stated by another reviewer) which does not blank out any curse word, nor does it blur nudity and sexual content. Throughout the seasons, there is more grotesque violence (including a man having his head chopped off with a machete) and sexual content/nudity (including an uncensored scene in the VIP room of a strip club). Language is extreme, using most swearwords under the sun. This show is definitely not for kids, and I would have a hard time recommending it for the violence, language, and sexual content.

Breaking Best
Parents need to know that this AMC program does, in fact, contain uncut material on the DVD and Blu-Ray releases, meaning any strong language ("f--k," "s--t") and occurrences of nudity and strong sexuality are completely uncensored. Therefore, I do believe that it should only be viewed by mature audiences. With that said, Breaking Bad is, in fact, a terrific show with a riveting story and spectacular actors. I do rate this for 17 and up, but even if your child is an upright and mature 15-year-old who can handle violence, strong language, and mature subject matter, I think he or she'd be able to handle this. Fans of action and complex story need look no further than this.

Moms must speak up!
In the pilot the main character is depicted as transforming himself into a better , bolder, "awake" (his words) person when he decides to make illegal drugs. It is clearly suggested that his decision will improve him and his quality of life. Sexual advanced. Drug use depicted as common and very profitable. This may be an amusing concept for a TV show but teens are attracted to this. Fathers, get some backbone and say no to this! For at least 15 and over with parent watching for discussion purposes.
