This chart is for my friend Bonnie's video.  She made an amazing tribute to Breaking Bad and posted it.  It got 43 views the first two days.  I saw it and put it on Reddit and four other places, and Reddit really liked it.  Vimeo's stats show (though not in this screenshot) that Reddit is where most of the views are coming from. 

In the short time it took me to post all this, the view count went up to 3,508.  That pace will likely slow in the next day unless the video gets picked up somewhere else.  But it's been pretty exciting to watch.  Yes, this is nerdy math stuff but most of us rarely get to see something go even mildly viral, so I thought you'd like a glimpse of that in real time.  You can see Bonnie's video below.  Please leave her a comment!  

WARNING: video contains VIOLENCE and has SPOILERS for the ENTIRE SERIES of Breaking Bad.   
It is to the song "El Paso" from a scene in the finale.  Show creator Vince Gilligan said in an interview with Colbert that Felina, mentioned in the song, would refer to Walt's Precious, his blue meth.  Bonnie ran with that idea and made this haunting video that I can't quit watching.  It's excellent, but it's only for fans who have seen the entire show. 

SPOILERS! The entire story of Breaking Bad set to "El Paso," a song from the finale. From Bonnie Rose on Vimeo.
