“Evil” is not a medical diagnosis but the classical understanding of evil does overlap quite strongly with the so-called “dark triad” of personality disorders of antisocial personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder and machiavellianism.

It’s quite startling how often characters in sitcoms tend to demonstrate traits of these three disorders and for a long while I wondered why.

Then I realized the answer is very simple: it’s really funny (when it’s not happening to you).
