The Egyptian serial “Wald Ghalaba” serial is being accused of copying the US “Breaking Bad”, according to The Independent.
Numerous viewers pointed out the direct similarities between new series Wald El Ghalaba and the popular AMC drama, which ended in 2013.
The show’s plot is instantly recognisable to anyone who has seen an episode of the Vince Gilligan series: strapped for cash and faced with unfortunate news, a man is forced to deal drugs to keep his family afloat.
One viewer in Egypt tweeted: “They didn’t even bother working on a new script. Some of the quotes are translated verbatim.”
