Jim Carrey gave us one of his best performances in recent years in the critically acclaimed comedy Kidding, but Showtime decided to cancel this show after two seasons.
The network released an official statement announcing that Kidding concluded its run on Showtime, thanking the creative masterminds responsible for bringing this show to life. “We are very proud to have aired this imaginative, critically acclaimed, and rewarding series, and we would like to thank Jim Carrey, Dave Holstein, Michael Aguilar, Michel Gondry, and the entire cast and crew for their brilliant and tireless work,” reads Showtime’s statement.
Kidding centered on the beloved children’s television presenter Mr. Pickles, who tries to keep his show running as his family falls apart. It was directed and executive produced by Michel Gondry, who previously worked with Carrey on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
The cast of this Golden Globe-nominated show also included Frank Langella, Judy Greer, and Catherine Keener.
