"Breaking Bad: Original Minisodes" is a web series based on the television series "Breaking Bad". On February 17, 2009, five "mini-episodes," which were more comedy-oriented than most full episodes, were made available online before the premiere of the show's second season. Additional minisodes were to be produced before the premiere of the fourth season, but these did not come to fruition. The first five were included with "Breaking Bad: The Complete Second Season".

As the series progressed, Gilligan and the writing staff of "Breaking Bad" made Walter increasingly unsympathetic. Gilligan said during the run of the series, "He's going from being a protagonist to an antagonist. We want to make people question who they're pulling for, and why." Cranston said by the fourth season, "I think Walt's figured out it's better to be a pursuer than the pursued. He's well on his way to badass."
