The only worse than BB is the judgmental, self-righteous lunacy of denouncing BB as a “cultural influence”.

It’s a TV show.

TV is not a cultural influence - you heard it from Salamander.

Thank God, I thought TV might be a cultural influence.

I wish there were some Hollywood execs here on FR that I could ping.

Now we finally know: Breaking Bad is not a cultural influence.

[Salamander]

So you’ve pinged a huge “hit squad” against me?

How gutless and cowardly.

I sincerely hope you’re not male.

I would say MTV is a cultural influence. It has lowered the bar successfully for a generation and a half.

Breaking Bad? Not so much.

I doubt as many high school science teachers have been inspired to start their own meth empire as sixteen year olds persuaded that getting knocked up by their baby daddy or being queer is OK. (not to mention the inspired swarms of aspiring rappers.)

Thanks for the ping... I suspect the show’s a cultural influence or reflecting one - or both...

TV (and movies) is a HUGE cultural influence.

I would argue that it is larger and more damaging than anything that public edication does to a person's mind.

Well, let me say it this way. Public education primes the person for conformity and group think.

Popular culture institutes the the cultural Marxist direction our country is moving towards at warp speed.

Where else do you think all these kids and 20 somethings got the idea that being a single mom is cool, being gay is wonderful and rampant, that having a "blended family" with kids sired by 8 different parents is a sought after living arrangement, that being a white, older guy is synonymous with being a hateful bigot...it's all come from popular culture.

Media outlets are very much given agendas and marching orders from NWO. This did not happen by accident. You are very correct.
