Breaking Bad is widely renowned as one of the greatest television dramas of all time, yet the sudden influx of memes sourced from this series may be cause for some confusion. In this video essay, I give my take on how this series became a meme and why I think this was always inevitable.

Thank you everyone who watched and enjoyed the video! I really appreciate all of the feedback and it’s kinda wild to see how many people ended up watching the show BECAUSE of the memes. I never expected that. 🚨 Also, for those of you who have NOT finished the show yet, there are SPOILERS in this comment section. Proceed at your own discretion 🚨 Thanks again 🙏🏻

I will not lie that when I saw the scene with walt looking horrified and falling down to cry I laughed so much due to having seen so many memes about it that it became unserious to me. However that doesn't make the moment any less impactful to me, I still felt distraught after Hank's death.

I was a senior in HS when the finale came out. I remember the Friday before it came out everybody was dressing up as breaking bad characters and wearing merchandise from the show. The best part was how we didn’t discuss it as a school, everybody just did it like we telepathically agreed to do it. This wasn’t just a show for us, this was an event and one of my favorite memories from HS

Dont forget that Breaking Bad isn't just a straight drama. At its core it's a dark comedy, even the darkest episodes you'll be laughing a few times. That only enhances the drama though because it opens up a larger range of emotions to work from. This is something a lot of shows don't seem to understand.

Honestly these memes made me dicover breaking bad, so for people like me its done a benefit of telling a still amazing story. Edit: Figured I’d put my reply here to those confused by my wording. Being born in the early 2000s it’s not like we were able to watch it when it aired on television, as most parents wouldn’t let 6-10 year olds watch it. I think all of us knew about breaking bad, but watching it and getting interested in the show took initiative. I see a few people apparently peeved in the comments by it and it’s pretty funny how gatekeepey others can be.

Ι have notice we create memes out of appreciation for something. Remember when Infinity War/End Game was on theaters? Every meme was using scenes from these movies as templates. Nowadays, when something is outstanding, like breaking bad or the Avengers Movies (not good movie-wise but made ppl go beserk over them), or they realised The Incredibles movie exists, they make memes. And I am on-board with that.

Even in Ozymandias (at the you know what) scene, i didn't even think of the meme until after I had finished it.

The way you analyzed the difference between the way Breaking Bad was meme'd in 2013 vs now really made me think about how, if memes can be considered art, the people alive during certain art periods might have understood and or were entertained by the art without really being able to explain it. The explaining and analyzing being left to art professors of the time or art historians. The way we look at art periods like Impressionism for example might capture what made the art period special to the people of the time but maybe those people wouldn't have been able to examine their current art in the same way...

You just made a history of memes presentation with just breaking bad, love it.

Dude absolutely incredible video. Get ready for your life to change! Remember, they don't all have to be amazing. Post a great video for every three mediocre ones. Can't wait!

Good video! As someone who watched Breaking Bad last year for the first time, I was mostly unfamiliar with the memes. I love the show and have watched it through twice. The second time around, memes did not ruin it for me. If anything, they enhanced the experience. I think you’re on to something. I think that the memes are part of the experience. BB is such a dark show, that when you hit the generally lighthearted first season of BCS, it’s a welcome contrast. Then, as the story progresses and the show takes on a similar vibe to BB, you experience more memes, which only adds to the experience.

Breaking bad and better call saul are my two favorite tv shows and the memes are just funny supplementary material that doesn't take away any of the shows dramatic impact

That meme you shared at the end was pretty funny ( I had a belly chuckle )

the memes never really bothered me, they just gave me a new way to enjoy the same scenes i've watched so many times. when i'm actually watching the show, i'm able to ignore them, but when i'm on the internet, i can enjoy them without reducing my enjoyment of the show

@netflaming Год назад

it was also because a lot of elements of breaking bad at service level do look like goofy memes

I've never seen anyone break down memes before, but this was brilliant.

The handshake meme when mentioning I should subscribe makes it seem like a solid agreement. You make vids I press button. 🤝😎

I've just finished 5th season like one day before this video came out and the primary reason for me to watch the series was all the memes in the Internet. And I can definitely say that memes DO NOT ruin the drama one bit. The show is a masterpiece

I just binged BrBa and Saul over the winter and I can say the memes have not hurt the show. The tense moments they pull from. Are still tense because so much has built up to it that you really dont even think about the meme reference you've seen 200 times.
