Georgia and Amanda dive into fictional representations of mental illness, from Jane Eyre to Maid to Silver Linings Playbook.
We take on Kanye and ask the question – is being mentally ill an excuse to act like a jackass?
Georgia wonders why fictional representations of bipolar nearly always look exactly the same?
Amanda ponders whether it’s possible to make great television without resorting to stereotypes.
Georgia gets fired up and Amanda is: The Problem.
Bradley Cooper is appropriately appreciated.
And, Jack Nicholson – the lobotomy is on you buddy.
