The crime drama is available to stream in the UK and viewers have already been hooked
The popular crime drama is now available to stream in the UK.
A forgotten crime drama with a Gilmore Girls icon has landed on UK streaming, with the series gripping fans from start to finish.
Having first been released back in 2013 on CBC, Cracked follows one former SWAT officer, Detective Aidan Black, who was reassigned following a public incident. He was transferred to a newly created psych crimes and crisis unit as the series became a huge hit with viewers.
Starring Gilmore Girls icon David Sutcliffe (who is known for his role as Christopher Hayden), as Detective Black, the show spanned across two seasons before it was cancelled from television screens.
Now, season one is available to stream on Prime Video and is currently trending on the streaming platform. However, the second season has not yet been made available.
Prime Video teases: “Former SWAT officer Detective Aidan Black is taken aback when he learns that his new partner isn’t a cop.
“He’s been assigned to work with forensic psychiatrist Dr. Daniella Ridley in a newly established unit tasked with solving the city’s most horrific crimes. Their contrasting perspectives and methods are meant to help crack even the toughest cases.”
With 13 episodes in season one, Cracked has been dubbed a must watch by viewers.
One IMDB reviewer wrote: “The First season of CRACKED had the promise of being something TRULY GREAT and the first of its kind on Canadian TV.” They later added: “Its rare that ANY television show has made me care so much for ALL of its characters. Even the weekly antagonist.”

Another said: “I love the crime show genre, and this one is different enough to stand out from the crowd and entice me to watch every episode. Too many crime shows are built from the same mould.
“This show contains plenty of storyline and plot development, but still has a certain amount of thrill to it…so its not just mindless guts and gore, its not just another Drama, not just another who-dun-it show. I think it dips its toes just enough into each.”
A third said it was “excellent… excellent… excellent”, adding: ” The show has the suspense and also the drama. I was literally holding on to my pillow as I watched this show, trying not to miss even the tinniest details.”
Viewers may also recognise Stefanie von Pfetten as Dr. Daniella Ridley , Dayo Ade as Leo Beckett and Luisa D’Oliveira as Detective Poppy Wisnefski. Other familiar faces include Karen LeBlanc, Paul Popowich and Brooke Nevin.
Cracked season one can be streamed on Prime Video.
