Starved
Starved is an FX Network television situation comedy that aired for one season of seven episodes in 2005. The series was about four friends who each suffer from eating disorders, who met at a “shame-based” support group called Belt Tighteners. Its characters included those with bulimia, anorexia, and binge eating disorder. Eric Schaeffer created the show as well as writing, starring in and directing it, based upon his own struggle with eating disorders. In addition to his own life experiences, Schaeffer also drew upon the experiences of the other members of the principal cast, each of whom coincidentally had struggled with food issues of their own.
Starved was the lead-in of FX’s hour-long “Other Side of Comedy” block with It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. FX executives wanted to use the two series to begin building comedy programming and broaden the network’s demographic. The series debuted on August 4, 2005 to poor critical reviews and was cancelled in October 2005, when FX picked Sunny over Starved for renewal.

Takin’ Over the Asylum
Takin’ Over the Asylum is a six-part BBC Scotland television drama about a hospital radio station in a Glasgow psychiatric hospital. It was written by Donna Franceschild, produced by Chris Parr and directed by David Blair.
The station is developed by alcoholic double glazing salesperson Eddie McKenna, who is an aspiring disc jockey at St. Jude’s Hospital, named after the patron saint of lost causes. He meets a range of people with various mental illnesses:
⁕Campbell – a young, enthusiastic contributor to the station, who is a manic depressive.
⁕Francine – a long-term depressive patient who self harms and to whom McKenna is strongly attracted.
⁕Fergus – an electrical engineer, who has schizophrenia and a habit of escaping from the hospital then returning.
⁕Rosalie – a middle-aged housewife who has OCD regarding cleanliness and is separating from her husband.
The show uses many Beatles songs both in its soundtrack and episode titles. The name of the hospital, for example, is echoed by the Beatles’ “Hey Jude”. The show is also notable for its sound editing with popular music tracks seamlessly blended between soundtrack theme and live foreground action.
