I am not judging your motives or your level of responsibility. I would say that if you watch this show with children or even teens present you might want to rethink that.
What I am saying about societial norms is that our views have been changed and not for the good.
I work with openly gay doctors who bring their partners to our company Christmas party and not one person would dare object.
People openly discuss taking psychotropic drugs in the work place as if it a normal part of life and even joke about it... 'Today is an 80 mg day for sure'.
'Who I screwed on Satruday night after we all left the bar' is now appropriate lunch conversation.
And these are average employed women, not some gutter trash whores.
So one has to ask how we got there from here... and raunchy television leads the race as culpable in my opinion.
And also in my opinion there is no denying that Breaking Bad is a raunchy show, no matter how well written or acted or how interesting the subject matter.
