What would a prison be like without keys and guards? That's the radical idea Arkansas Sheriff Eric Higgins tried for six weeks at the Pulaski County Detention Facility. Higgins believed the program would improve living conditions in the jail and reduce incarceration rates. During the experiment, inmates were given greater autonomy. They could move around the facility as they pleased and decide how certain things should be run. Doing good deeds gave them more freedom. Some inmates took advantage of this opportunity to build their own lives, while others continued to challenge authority and each other. By the end of the six weeks, Higgins will find out if his idea is sustainable.

Honestly, this is a completely selfish choice. Because I watched a frankly unhealthy amount of Adult Swim in high school and college. Metal Caliphs was one of my favorite shows of all of them.

Deathrock, the world's biggest band, is on an extended hiatus that is wreaking havoc on the world's political and economic systems. Naturally, only a face-melting new metal album can stimulate the planet out of financial depression, but when the band finally decides to go on tour again, everything quickly goes to hell. The legendary Metal Caliphate has arrived, and Deathrock must craft a "salvation song" that rocks hard enough to ward off the evil forces that seek to destroy the planet. That is, if the band members can keep their egos, insecurities, and stupidity in check enough to keep from ruining the world. It would be asking too much of these idiots.
