Okay...I'm Hooked...
FORGET THE REVEIWER! This is an amazing show! I love it so much! Bryan Cranston is amazing in this show! He is a phenominal perfomance! The show has some swearing and sh*t (I can't belive I had to cencore that) is not bleedped out. But the violence is pretty gross but nothing to wory about, the worst part is when a body is disolved in a bath tub and the floor breaks sending the spongey chunks of the gun to the ground. The drugs are used alot (as of episode 3 they have used: Meth, Pot, Crack, and I think Coke) The sexual content is nothing. So overall a 13 or 14+ on it.

Breaking Bad breaks new ground.
This great series from Writer/Creator Vince Gilligan makes me wonder how Actor Bryan Cranston went from low-brow humor on Malcolm in the middle to great dramatic actor in Breaking Bad, but it's not only him that carries the show it's the very talented support Aaron Paul that brings Cranston in the drug business. I recommend this clever fast paced show to anyone who likes good drama.

Great Show, not for younger audiences
This show is AH-MAZING. There are a lot of drugs, and some sexual content, and a lot of violence. The story and acting is superb. I'm pretty mature for my age so I was able to handle the show just fine, but generally it is really only for older teens +. Sex isn't as bad as people are saying it is, (although i didn't see the first season) It shows sex between a married couple, I think once or twice between two others, and it's not very explicit. There is a graphic strip clubs scene with nudity but I just skipped over it. There is a lot of violence and blood, so if you don't like that than this isn't your show. And of course the whole story is about drugs, so, lots of drugs. But really, great show.

Parents, pause before you let kids watch!
It is about making and selling illegal drugs, so there is quite a bit of them. One of the main characters is an addict. There is quite a bit of sex, including a relationship with a prostitute. There's also a lot of swearing, and especially violence. There are some particularly gory and disgusting scenes. I would not reccomend it to anyone under 16, and, parents of 16 and 17 year olds need to pause, and watch it before they let their kids. There is a positive message- It shows that life as a drug addict is not fun, and you can get in quite a bit of trouble. Overall, it's a good show, but not for children.

This is no doubt an anti drug show. most drugs are bad like meth crack and heroine. it sheds light on why you shouldent contribute to meth creation or usage.
good anti drug show
