What If Breaking Bad Was A Sitcom?

I probably talk about Breaking Bad and how good it is on Sick Chirpse at least once a month, and I already mentioned it this week when I talked about the Malcolm In The Middle Reunion that is going to happen in the last few episodes of Breaking Bad. It’s gonna be kind of a long wait until the final 8 episodes finally start up again in the summer – I think it’s around July 11th or something? – and we can finally find out what happens to Walt and Jesse. Someone was telling me the other day that they’ve just wrapped the series and they’ve actually filmed five different endings to it, so not even the actors present know what’s going to happen at the end. My money is on Jesse getting the better of Walk and killing him, but I really don’t think there’s going to be an ending where everyone gets out alive.

But let’s look on the bright side for a minute. The same dude also told me that I reminded him of Jesse Pinkman, which I took as a compliment. Yeah bitch! But seriously, there are a bunch of different Breaking Bad parody videos on the internet and this might just be the best one yet as it reimagines Breaking Bad as a sitcom. At first I thought it was just going to be an extended title sequence because it goes on for ages (and is actually pretty funny) but then it goes into an episode and adds some canned laughter and applause and it actually works remarkably well.

I’m not normally a fan of these kind of mash ups (or whatever you want to call them) but it works perfectly and is actually really funny. My favourite part is probably when there’s a knock at the door and Walt Jr. shows up on his crutches and there’s a huge round of applause from the audience, kinda like when Kramer would enter Jerry’s apartment in Seinfeld. The first canned laughing track is really good too but I don’t want to spoil it for you. But it just works almost seamlessly aside from the fact that maybe the acting is a bit too serious, but that just kinda gives it like a Curb Your Enthusiasm kinda vibe or something.

It’s real funny/dumb how easy it seems to be to change Breaking Bad into a sitcom just by adding a laughing track, considering how serious it is normally so this video is a pretty decent stopgap until the final series finally comes out this summer. Hope you like it:
