Best of 2018: I'm Dying Up Here
15 Dec 2018 By Eva Ara�jo (Web correspondent)
Have you ever heard an artist say that the old stand-up comedy days were a golden time? Have you ever heard comedians talk about how the comedy clubs changed their lives and how amazing it was?
That's what "I'm Dying Up Here" was about. The Showtime series transported you back to the 1970's and the comedy clubs of that time for two seasons with 20 episodes. It showed you the good and bad of how it was to become a comedian and especially a successful one.
Jim Carrey was one of the executive producer of the series and he helped the writers with ideas by telling his own experiences back in his early career.
"I'm Dying Up Here" gave a glimpse of many comedians life with all the up's and downs, with all the laughs and cries and we are thankful for it. And that's why it is, for us, one of the best things of 2018.
The series was cancelled but for those who loved to watch it, it is an amazing series to treasure and to review.
