Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul team up with Veep’s Julia Louis-Dreyfus for parody of Pawn Stars for Emmys sponsor Audi

Barely Legal Pawn? Right, now we have your attention ... for Breaking Bad fans suffering from withdrawal from the adventures of Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, relief is at hand in this online promo for Monday’s primetime Emmys from sponsor Audi. Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul have teamed up as shady second-hand goods dealers, in a spoof of US reality show Pawn Stars featuring Veep’s Julia Louis-Dreyfus trying to sell the Emmy she won in 1996 for playing Elaine on Seinfeld. Ramping up the meta, the promo switches between reality show spoof – with a healthy dollop of the Seinfeld-esque comedy of awkward social encounters – and a nod to the darker drama of Breaking Bad.
