This is a v. funny webisode of Breaking Bad, written by Kate Powers. You will greatly enjoy it, but bear in mind it is NSFW.

Posted at February 19, 2009 10:38 PMHi Jon S.,
who were those guys who did that "24" video parody, with the guy with all those daughters? I've been looking for it, to no avail.
Alas, Mr. Nagle, it is not Jon but I who enters the Hall of Shame. In my defense, I have an MFA in screenwriting and on my diploma, it says, "This document shall grant the bearer the use, as needed, of gratuitous vomiting, sexual acts, profanity and punching of heavy bags to indicate a character is preparing for a serious conflict."
Thanks for posting this, Jon! I hope it will cheer your readers to learn that, thanks to last year's writers' strike, this short film has gained me one tiny fraction of the credits needed to join the WGA. Prior to the strike, this short film would have earned me a pat on the head and a bag of unshelled pistachios. Go unions!
