Throughout the entirety of The Walking Dead, many viewers expressed their desire for at least a few F-bombs. However, because AMC is a basic cable channel, executives are pretty strict when it comes to profanity. However, Season 11, Episode 15, "Trust," finally made an aggressive F-bomb loud and clear.
Breaking Bad
Uses the censored version for Season Three. As a result sexuality is toned down. (This censorship was originally done by AMC in order to get the TV-14 rating.)
Breaking Bad's Themes, Stories & Characters Are Timeless
One of the main reasons for the proven timeless quality of Breaking Bad is simply how well-written the show is. From its wider themes, characters, and the stories intertwining the two, Breaking Bad remains the gold standard on how to write TV.
AMC's “Breaking Bad” has taken the nation by storm. The show has offers a glimpse into the dark and gritty world of crystal meth. Creator Vince Gilligan created a story and characters that are complex and frightening and crystal meth is at the center of it all.
In the original story Walt injects Jane with another hit of heroin while she's unconscious, murdering her. This was toned down to a version where he intentionally turns her on her back so she chokes to death on vomit.
Walter White's Drug Empire, also known simply as Walt's Drug Empire, was a massive meth manufacturing and distribution operation which started in 2008 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It was founded by former chemistry teacher Walter White, and catalyzed by his former student Jesse Pinkman.
Generally considered the weakest season of Breaking Bad, Season Two deals with Walt and Jesse continuing to cook meth and make money from it while handling the fallout of their feud with Tuco Salamanca and meeting Saul Goodman for the first time.
For season 1 and 2, I too found the show quite slow for my liking, but soon i realized what show was aiming at which is subtitling emotions and human dilemmas, deterioration of morality & significance of family. Most of the important aspects of shows are dealt in silence and left at the intelligence of viewer.
The shows portal of drugs and violence doesn't necessarily hold back. The violence can be strong at times, but isn't on the level of brutality such as other shows like Game of Thrones and The Wire. The drug content is pervasive, though the use of drugs isn't as frequent as you'd think.
Depends how matured your child is
If your kid knows that doing drugs is not the way to go and to never ever do them then this show is fine for people 12+. There are some gory parts but you legit can close your eyes if you can't watch.
The most gruesome and gory scene in the series occurs in episode two when Walt and Jesse have to disolve a dead body. A man walks out of a room with half his face blown off. A severed leg is seen in the background during this briefly.
Be warned, though, that Breaking Bad is not intended for kids in any way, shape, or form. Violence is graphic and sometimes gory (there is a particularly gross sequence early in the series which involves a corpse that has been dissolved in acid; it turns into a bloody mess).
Reserved only for impact in the PG-13 universe, R-rated films have a green light to use the F-word unregulated. You only get one, and you better make it count.
Some seasons have a lot of F-bombs. 500+ uses of "fuck" in the entire series, many of them being sexual.
1965: First use of the f– word on TV is on 13 November 1965 by literary agent Kenneth Tynan (UK) during a satirical discussion show entitled BBC3.
Such was the popularity of Peaky Blinders across its six-season run, with many people finding its British take on the world of crime a nice alternative to the likes of Breaking Bad.
Sex, Romance & Nudity. In one scene, a bare-breasted woman leans out a window. Walt and his wife have some intense sexual encounters, but nothing graphic is shown.
Breaking Bad delivered more standout episodes of television, but Better Call Saul turned out to be the more consistent show, episode to episode. Then, at the end of Better Call Saul season 6, episode 9, "Fun and Games," the show overtook Breaking Bad.
Funnily enough, Rian Johnson has the distinction of directing Breaking Bad's highest-rated episode (season 5's "Ozymandias") and its lowest-rated, season 3's "Fly." The former sees Walter White's life crumble around him in a devastating and visceral fashion, while the latter sees him hunting a fly in his meth lab, as ...
Sexuality. Much of Gus's motives are driven by revenge for the death of his partner Maximino "Max" Arciniega by the Mexican cartel. Gus and Max's relationship was long implied to be more than business before their confirmation as lovers by showrunner Peter Gould in 2022.
