There is a great deal of critical scholarship about Breaking Bad (2008-13), some of which has appeared in the pages of this journal (see Chisum, 2019: 415-428). It might seem that everything that needs to be said about the series has already been said, but this issue starts with an essay which reaches into television studies from outside to mount a different kind of argument. Ewan Bowlby is a doctoral researcher based at the Institute for Theology, Imagination and the Arts at the University of St Andrews in Scotland, who is using popular artworks (novels, films and television series) to design new forms of art therapy which provide emotional, psychological and spiritual care for cancer patients. Bowlby has used Breaking Bad therapeutically with people living with cancer and argues that the series can encourage patients to recognise and reconsider damaging reactions to their condition. This involves patients seeing Walter White (Bryan Cranston) who is, of course, living with cancer, as a 'silhouette' of a path not taken, a lesson in how not to respond to the disease, which can encourage those living with cancer to adopt more open, honest and constructive attitudes. Bowlby draws on the theological concept of a 'silhouette of goodness' and Jungian theory to argue that White's increasingly chaotic descent into criminality could help caregivers to meet the need for symbols in cancer care. The next contribution, by Max Romanowski and Zachary Sheldon, examines the ethics of satire in the Internet age. The article explores some of the ways in which YouTube, and Internet culture more generally, has affected and generically shaped forms of contemporary US television comedy. The focus is on satire, especially in the form that engages with the public as unwitting participants in the television event for the entertainment of the viewer. This form of television is not new in itself-as the authors note, it has been a thread in television comedy since the 1940s, when Candid Camera (1948-2014) first appeared. What is distinctive about contemporary examples, however, is the way they use the aesthetics and ethics of Internet video culture to reshape the genre, revelling in 'bad taste' and 'shock' for satirical purposes. The main examples the authors explore are two US series, The Eric Andre Show (2012-) and Nathan for You
