AMC And Sony Launching Breaking Bad Minisodes

AMC and Sony have launched online minisodes for Breaking Bad to promote the show’s upcoming second-season premiere. The companies are set to unveil five stand-alone shorts 3-5 minutes apiece. The minisodes will debut beginning Tuesday on AMC’s site and Crackle.com.

The minisodes are one of three digital extensions for the drama, which returns March 8. Walt’s Warning, a first-person customized viral video featuring series star Bryan Cranston hosted at Waltswarning.com, will have viewers choose their own adventure as they interact with Cranston’s desperate science teacher-turned-meth peddler.

Also, seven episodes from the series’ first season have been crunched into five- to seven-minute summary videos available on Sony’s minisode network of online portals including AOL and Hulu.

The original minisodes feature the regular cast and include a flashback to Hank’s pre-wedding jitters; Walt panicking when he realizes his wife has sold their vacuum cleaner, which houses his drug earnings; and a behind-the-scenes look at Jesse’s music video with his band.
