Breaking Bad star was on 'The Price Is Right' in 1998

From UPROXX: The Breaking Bad star was on The Tonight Show yesterday, and Jay Leno, in a rare moment of me not hating him, revealed that his production team had dug up 14-year-old footage of Paul, wearing a Texas t-shirt and glasses, freaking out, Pinkman-style, after he was told to “COME ON DOWN…BITCH.” Best of all, as Paul mentioned to Leno, a commercial of his ran during a Price Is Right ad break.

Watch the clip here.

Mr. Wizard being a dick

Mr. Wizard being a dick

Video clips of Mr. Wizard being a dick to kids. I think the millennial generation could use a dosage of this guy to take them down a notch. No participation ribbon for you!

Brought to you by @DianeBullock and @mcs212.

For those of you who don’t know, this was a program on the Nickelodeon children’s television called Mr. Wizard’s World. The on-air host was Don Herbert demonstrated the science behind ordinary things with kids and pretty much shattered their dreams on a regular basis. It was wonderful.

Monday Music Rewind: Batdance

Prince released the "Batdance" single in 1989 and it anchored the Batman movie soundtrack.

Prince released the “Batdance” single in 1989 and it anchored the Batman movie soundtrack. The Purple One would don a different guise — as a Joker/Batman/Two Face tribute named Gemini — for the “Batdance” video (Also, Vicki Vale) which you can’t view on YouTube cause Prince prohibits it (sigh). You can see it here though. You can also buy the single here.
