Today's 911 Call Of The Day is about... a cable outage.
I am told there's some show called "Breaking Bad" that is extremely popular. I guess it must be, at least in Fairfield, Conn. (sorry, Florida):

Look, we know that the final season of “Breaking Bad” is a big deal and everything, but people in Connecticut were calling 911 to report that their cable was out shortly before the airing of hit AMC show Sunday.
The Fairfield Police Department took to Facebook to call out these idiots. Well, hang on now, this isn’t exactly true, an intrepid local reporter contacted the cops who said that, actually, only one guy called 911 because of the outage and the posting was removed. But still.
