Comparative Literature: Breaking Bad and 19 Kids and Counting

I like having two shows going at the same time on Netflix. Right now, it's Breaking Bad and 19 Kids and Counting. I've been struck by the commonalities of both shows:

• Both portray American families and their struggles and how they problem solve, e.g. both the Whites and the Duggars hold family meetings to address issues
• Michelle Duggar teaches a class of around 20 students and so does Mr. White
• Both sets of parents try to protect their respective families from harm and influence from the outside world
• They are all nerdy
• The health of one parent is the focus of the show and the family (pregnancy for Michelle and lung cancer for Walt Sr)
• Both families drive used cars
• Both families leverage what they have for the most possible gain

I could probably go on. I love both of the shows equally, after being equally squicked out by both at first. And I love the idea of one of those worlds bleeding together in my imagination (literally).
