  • Network theory has been used to analyse literary works by means of representing fictional characters and their relations as nodes connected by edges in a graph. In this report we analyse a social network representing the plot of “Breaking Bad”, the famous tv-show, by looking at its features and how they evolve with time. What we aim to illustrate is a new way of looking at narrative structures with a reproducible case-study on how to apply network measurements on literary plots to analyse their features.
