‘Breaking Bad’ gets animated with ‘Mr Men’

The popular TV series – ‘Breaking Bad’ – has been toonized by two indie animators, Jonny Lang and Jason Burke, who uploaded the four-minute spoof, ‘Mr White’, to their YouTube channel earlier this week.

The animation short attempts to mash the illustration style of ‘Mr Men’ creator Roger Hargreaves with the crystal meth-drenched world of the AMC crime drama to comic effect.

“Mr White lived in a place called Drugland,” begins the clip’s voiceover, before hysterically retelling the events of the hit show’s first season.

The spoof largely follows the same plot as the original drama, but tweaking the adaptations that reflect the quirky nature of the 1970s children’s cartoon.

The Breaking Bad spinoff series Better Call Saul, starring Bob Odenkirk as White’s wily lawyer has been pushed back to 2015 and the follow-up season planned for 2016.
