Say, have you guys checked out this new show called Cracked? It started just yesterday.

It's interesting to see a squad of police and psychologists/psychiatrists working together to intervene with cases involving people with mental illness. For example, the first episode reveals that the killer they're looking for is a young man with schizophrenia who is killing people and sticking a light bulb into them, because he thinks that he'll absorb enough power and light to save his grandmother, who is dying of terminal lung cancer.

The main character himself is a police detective going through post-traumatic stress disorder, which seems to give him the empathy he needs to handle these cases.

I have not seen the show, but I originally thought it was a TV version of the website.

I thought it was a typo for Cracker.

Am I a good man or a bad man?
