Dating Advice of the Day: Bryan Cranston, Eddie Redmayne, and Benedict Cumberbatch Make the Perfect Dating Videos

Are you lonely? Do you feel like everyone's always swiping left? Why not take some dating advice from the one who knocks?

Appearing on The Graham Norton Show, Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston revealed his secret past as the director of dating profile videos. Before Tinder, OkCupid, and Match.com, single people would record a short video of themselves as an introduction. Prospective daters would then watch and effectively swipe right or left on the person. Cranston's job, as he tells Norton, was to get these daters to loosen up a bit.

In this clip, Cranston gives the tricks of the trade and even takes a stab at a video intro of his own with a little help from Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them's Eddie Redmayne and Dr. Strange's Benedict Cumberbatch.

Try to contain yourselves.
