It's not about the content of the show its about the cultural I pact of the popularity of the show itself.

No actually I fully understand the cultural implications of how popularizing drug culture in rap music has had a negative impact on young minds for decades.
Obviously your not paying attention because this has been talked about by industry insiders for years.
It's not about the content of the show its about its popularization. You don't u deist and advertising.

I didn't notice any Breaking Bad sets in the physical store when we went in for a pre-Christmas list info gathering session with the kids a few weeks ago. I also didn't notice the sets on the site, but then again, I didn't notice any Call of Duty stuff at either one. Color me unfazed.
Kids are impressionable, yes. But when mom & dad say "No, you may not get that", we mean it. How about some parental responsibility here with the griping? It might be as inappropriate as a Hooker Barbie would be, but for cripes' sake, it's mom & dad's job to do the toy vetting, not just blindly buy whatever Jr. points at.

Funniest thing I have read in awhile, Breaking Bad glorifying drug culture. Which part glorified it the most? The OD where someone died on their own vomit? The multiple drug dealers that got killed? Maybe it was the other person that got half their face blown off. The LEO's that got killed? Oh wait I know, it was the family that was destroyed..
Yup, glorified.
A consumer has a choice, they don't have to buy any item a company is selling or they can go to another store.

You geniuses denouncing the show should learn a little more about it before you share your opinion.
Getting involved with manufacturing and selling meth COMPLETELY DESTROYED the lives of all involved. There is no glorification... there's a lot of loss, despair, sadness, and violence brought on by trying to make a quick buck.
If you watch part of one episode of a show and claim to know what you're talking about, you'll go through life looking pretty stupid to everyone else.
