If one light bulb in a series circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will go out, until the failed bulb is replaced and the series circuit is completed again.
If one light bulb in a parallel circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will still work.

What is the effect if a bulb is broken in a parallel or series circuit?

parallel circuit: Providing that the breakage does not result in a short circuit the other bulbs will still light. series circuit: If the breakage results in a short circuit through the bulb the other bulbs will light more brightly. If the breakage results in a breakage of the connection through the bulb then the other bulbs will not light.

What happens if one bulb in a series circuit burned out?

In a series circuit, all bulbs are necessary to complete the circuit. If one bulb goes out, the circuit is broken, so none of the bulbs would light up.
