Cracked.com Waxes Pop-Philosophical With ‘After Hours’

Cracked.com, the producers behind Streamy Award winning web series Agents of Cracked, just announced its newest original series, After Hours. Set in a late-nite diner, After Hours features four friends who come together each week to address a new pop culture-related question that is dissected and answered by the team through humor, quick-hitting dialogue and clever animations.

The pilot episode “Why ‘Back to the Future’ is Secretly Horrifying” broke over 900,000 views—the most viewed episode of any Cracked original series. Episode 2, “5 Classic Movie High Schools That Would Suck to Attend,” launches today.

• Soren Bowie can identify every 80’s movie bully in a line up
• Katie Willert can list every episode of Friends in order
• Michael Swaim can give you the detailed background check of every student from Saved By the Bell
• Daniel O’Brien can tell you the title and plot of whatever Simpsons episode you’re watching based on the first three seconds
