I’m Dying Up Here: Season Two Renewal for Showtime TV Series

Published: September 8, 2017

I'm Dying Up Here TV show on Showtime renewed for season two

Showtime is ready for another set. Deadline reports the network has renewed the TV show I’m Dying Up Here for a second season.

From executive producer Jim Carrey, the gritty drama chronicles the comedy scene in 1970s Los Angeles. The cast includes Melissa Leo, Ari Graynor, Michael Angarano, Clark Duke, Andrew Santino, Erik Griffin, RJ Cyler, Al Madrigal, Stephen Guarino, Jon Daly, and Ginger Gonzaga.

The renewal comes as a bit of a surprise since I’m Dying Up Here earned pretty low ratings. Over the course of its first season, the Showtime drama averaged a .04 rating int he 18-49 demo and only 143,000 viewers, making it one of the network’s lowest-rated series for the 2016-2017 season.

However, it seems like Showtime sees some promise for I’m Dying Up Here. They’ve ordered 10 episodes for season two, which is slated to debut in 2018.

From Showtime’s president of programming Gary Levine:

It is gratifying that so many comedians tell us this series really nailed the comedy club experience. The talented ensemble of I’m Dying Up Here, led by the brilliant Melissa Leo, and an equally skilled creative team behind the scenes, tell stories that scale the heights of comedy and the depths of drama, often at the same time. Having heard their plans for season two, I’m excited about the journeys these characters will take and the new ground the show will break.”

What do you think? Have you seen I’m Dying Up Here? Will you watch season two?

1/6/18 update: Showtime has announced that season two of I’m Dying Up Here will debut May 6, 2018. Details here.

This is really great that this show will go on. This series is very human: about humans and for humans. About their real lives and real feelings and their own ways, shelled from other alien opinions, based on general consensus. Thank you all the team of creators and the channel for letting this show to be born and be watched. This is awesome!

Is it too wild that this news brings me tears of joy!?!? Am rejoicing today. IDUH, Shameless and Happyish are some of my all time favorite television content. It seems Showtime has blitzed the ball from HBO for intelligent and dimensional scripted shows (except for Insecure, which is gold for so many reasons). I’m Dying Up Here is easily one of the best shows I have ever given an hour of my time to. Thank goodness comedians spoke up, because if this didn’t get renewed, it would have been the equivalent to a life cut short = tragic. This is… Read more »
