icelandknight As a Biker, I really wanted to give this show a chance, since there are so few good cop shows around. Watched the pilot of season 01 and pilot of season 02... to make up my mind, and it SEEMED interesting enough to give it a chance... So I settled in for what I thought would be an enjoyable season 2. Some of the plots seemed very childish, but what can one expect with "crazy people", so you'd think they could get away with ANY plot. Is what I thought... but it wasn't the crazy plot that was its downfall, its an arrogant cop blatantly harassing a suspect. This is grounds for suspension on a normal police force.(S02E05) Obviously the arrogant cop is envious of a rich developer, so, when he suspects the rich guy is making life hell for an old fart who won't sell his house to the rich developer, the cop goes out of his way (as I am sure many corrupt cops do) to self righteously harass him, in any way he can. Even after they find out who poisoned the guy's dog, they still demand the rich guy fork out for repairs to a house the guy's brother blew up. ?!? Wouldn't now be when the cop (and his inspector) make life easier for the developer, since he was not responsible for the greed of the culprit. This casts an unforgettable dark shadow on the character of this arrogant cop.It is clearly stated by them, that this harassment "would halt all progress on the building site." Causing delays and wasted money of the developer, who is trying to make the city a better place. At this point the rich guy should have sued the police, and used his powerful connections, to get the crooked inspector, and his self righteous "officer", fired. (This plot twist opportunity was totally missed by the writers.)Add to this, pointlessly, the lawyer (white female) of the rich guy is made a lesbian, who goes for the (black female) inspector (nothing wrong with that, one never knows who is horny, and acting on it (Harvey Weinstein, anyone?)), and she dumps the rich guy as a client, so there's no conflict of interest, getting it on with the inspector. Yet, no other lawyer is brought in, by the rich guy. So why bring a lawyer, the first time? That seems to have been JUST to bring in some lesbian action, that is then totally scrapped. The plot is so superficial, shallow and pointless, that it starts to be tedious, and more random events, to show a horny lesbian, which nothing more is then done with. So what was the point? Is it just so the black female inspector can then show up at the cop's house, drunk, (from shame? Remorse? Acting on her impulse?) Then kiss him? A guy?! Purpose? She's not really gay after all? or is she "bi"? None of these things are made clear, or their purpose, and there is no plot connection. There's no lesbian angle development. There's no point to her going to his place, drunk, except to try and show how "lucky" this cracked, self righteous cop is, but still unrealistically wading through more women, than you.Then the next episode (S02E06) WTF! A Native American screaming, as he carries the bloody body of a woman, and the cop does NOT call an ambulance? or backup? (because he's probably "cracked", so no need to do anything for him, "not my job"). Then the Native American starts shooting into the woods, but the cop does NOT get out of the car, to warn him, and shoot him dead? Instead the cop, unrealistically, just stays in his car, and doesn't try to help in any way. Then the Native American, who conveniently doesn't speak any English (possibly the comment here is: he's speaking original American, that others think must be 'cracked'). When they get him into custody, and hear he speaks only his tribal language, no interpreter is called in, until much later. Its like these imbeciles don't think. When the audience is more intelligent that the idiots on the screen, who are supposed to be some sort of "specialist squad"... That kills all interest in the Crap you are watching.On the other hand, I may watch a few more episodes. Maybe they improve? I sincerely doubt it. Once you KNOW the cop is a corrupt, self righteous a$$hole, he loses all likability and credibility. One always remembers him that way. Same as how Moulder lost all sympathy in Season 5 (or 7, been a while) of "X-Files".So ridiculous also, in the pilot of season 2, when they tell him the woman from the first season, will not be in this season, he just takes up with some other one, who just happens to have been assaulted in the first episode. How unrealistic is that? She just stays on, for the rest of the season. If this was the case, wouldn't he now have a line of Psychiatrist women he's saved, and who join him on cases he's tackling. It makes no sense. Any way you look at it. Who pays her wages? Can she now just go off and leave her ward unattended? Its not "Cracked" its "Craped".Also Trivia: The sound engineers constantly use Harley type motorcycle sounds, whenever they are outside. Also the cop is on a bike (looks like a Triumph), but it seems an attempt at a symbol rather then he be a Biker type. That side of him is left unknown. The bike is just a flashy montage, when he's getting between places. He's never shown with shopping bags dangling off his handlebars, from lack of saddlebags. Someone wanted motorcycle involvement, in the show, without thinking it through. Cool black police car, though, with "police" black on black.... or was this milking the word "Psych", which was much better show.

cyntaxera To be honest, I didn't think much of the pilot, but I wanted to give it a chance because of the topic matter. With there still being such a negative stigma attached to mental illness sufferers, it's good to see relatable, realistic characters that are either displaying signs of a mental illness or be seen to be compassionate and understanding towards those going through the symptoms.If I were to nitpick at it, I guess some of the writing seemed a bit lazy in parts, but I find the characters likable despite (or maybe because of?) their flaws. I find myself being easily drawn into the plot and I guess this helps me overlook what I see as failures in the story line where luck seems to have them in the right place at the right time saying just the right things... not as realistic as I'd like, but I guess I'm watching this more for the entertainment factor.It also helps having actors who double as eye candy ;)

Adam I watched an episode of this show based on the name, assuming it would be a TV series spin off of the Cracked website. Instead, I was treated to an hour long near-parody of evening police dramas. The acting is laughably bad. The episode hinged around a series of high school bullying-related deaths. The weak acting takes second fiddle to the truly ridiculous cut-and-paste characters. Every single character we come across in the high school is some goofy stereotype, from the mean girl to the nerd to the car-culture burnout. But the main cast is even worse, with no personality whatsoever. This main cop, he's supposed to be all edgy, but the edgiest thing he says or does in the entire episode is take a teenage girl's phone away (this has nothing to do with the plot, just ham-fisted writing). This show had me laughing the whole time. It's unintentional camp.

Elle Johnston There is only one word to describe this t.v. series and that word is "horrible". Where to start on what made for such a disappointing and horrible first episode? The actors? The script? The unrealistic role of the unit? The audio mixing? The fact that the writer and director wants us to believe that a cop that had a break down and saw three psychiatrists who is now fit for duty can "connect" with a delusional schizophrenic murderer? I was really hoping that Cracked would be good in the same way that The Bridge was good. But five minutes into the show and seeing a doctor ordering a cop to handcuff the victim being detained by a delusional man who has a history of mental illness my hopes were dashed. Because no where in Canada or the U.S. would a police officer ever handcuff a victim. It's called unlawful detainment and in Canada it's a Charter violation and considering that the show takes place in Toronto the Charter would apply. The other issue is the handling of a person holding someone against their will would not be dealt with in such a "gentle manner". On a scale of 1 - 10 with 1 being the lowest, I give this show a 0 because it was just that bad.
