There are three things Aaron Paul could do to make me like him more:
1) Cure cancer
2) Adopt every corgi puppy in the world, dress said puppies up as bunnies
3) Appear on The Price Is Right in the late 1990s
One out of three ain’t bad.
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. (Possibly for Corn Pops?)
Rumor has it that Bryan Cranston appeared in an episode, too, but was so terrifying that Bob Barker sh*t himself and the tape was burned.

I hope the game he got to play was RAGE.
So many Price Is Right games sound like Breaking Bad episode titles. “Danger Price,” “Double Cross,” “One Away,” “PLINKO.”
Rage Finder!
“The price is wrong, bitch.”
Now I’m convinced that Aaron Paul based his character on the fight scene from Happy Gilmore.
YEAH, BITCH! PLINKO!
ONE DOLLAR, BITCH!
He makes me insanely happy
Yeah Mr. Barker!! Yeah prices!!
the full clip is way better. he makes it to the showcase showdown, bitch!
Do we have it?
yes, “we” do.

ONE DOLLAR, BITCH
One out of three ain’t bad.
One out of three so far
So awesome. Look at that energy. Also, he looks very good in those glasses. Then again, he also looks great in that suit. Must be because he’s good-looking in general. I’m going to go now.
In the Letterman pic dude looks like Lars Ulrich. If Lars Ulrich was human and hadn’t been coked out of his gourd since 1984.
The title of this post should be “Yo, Aaron Paul Was On ‘The Price Is Right’ In 1998, Bitch!”
That was amazing
So yes, indeed, young Aaron makes it up there and all the way to the Showcase Showdown. Throughout the show Mr. Barker repeatedly manipulates Aaron to do Bob’s bidding by assuming a pseudo-father-figure role and repeatedly demeaning Aaron, but offering just enough support to keep Aaron from turning on Mr. Barker.
I’m passing on this Showcase, bitch!
