This Breaking Bad Mashup Merges the AMC Hit with HBO's the Wire
Jonathon Brown — December 19, 2012 — Pop Culture
This Breaking Bad mashup is just as much about Breaking Bad as it is about HBO's The Wire.
This mash-up video merges the introduction music and production style of The Wire with footage from Breaking Bad. The Wire was an HBO show that ran for five seasons and centered around the heroin trade in Baltimore (as well as the municipal institutions). For each of its five seasons, the introduction music was slightly altered so that different versions of the same song appeared each season.
Breaking Bad is an AMC show (currently going into its 9th season) about a former high school chemistry teacher who becomes a crystal meth cook and dealer to support his family when he gets terminal cancer. This Breaking Bad mash-up merges the worlds of two of the best narcotic trafficking shows ever on television.
