Fresno got a shout out on last night's episode of the AMC meth-cooking drama "Breaking Bad."

Unfortunately, I'm a few episodes behind, so I can't tell you what exactly was said. Luckily, other people sent me info on such things.

From Famous alum Bryan Zera:

breaking bad mentioned Fresno. That's where Badger, the drug dealer, is laying low

Adds Bee copy editor Marty:

A drug dealer got killed, and one of the main characters couldn't bring himself to go to the funeral - a buddy called to ask where he was, and said, "So-and-so even came from Fresno!"

Another cool "Breaking Bad" meets Fresno link (that I just discovered this morning): Fresno woman Jane Parsons is one of the finalists in a make-your-own-video contest put on by AMC. The winner gets a part in the show. Voting, however, ends this afternoon.
