I’m Dying Up Here is stuck on a dead stage, trying out any material it can and failing to pursue the few parts that deserve further exploration. Between a few moving dramatic moments (Ralph, played by Erik Griffin, is underutilized), a few too many crass jokes about women (Clark Duke’s Ron, who performs on “Soul Train,” is really out of place this year), and a few too many familiar story beats, it’s time to pull the cord on this cold mic.

Just watched season 2, episode 6. Fantastic.

Many story arcs reached their zenith and were all handled with a deft hand. Biting bravados displayed on stage and in group post game debriefs were lowered in natural one-to-ones, just enough to let a few trickles of honesty and emotion flowJust watched season 2, episode 6. Fantastic.

Many story arcs reached their zenith and were all handled with a deft hand. Biting bravados displayed on stage and in group post game debriefs were lowered in natural one-to-ones, just enough to let a few trickles of honesty and emotion flow over. Then raised again just as quickly to stem the bleeding and return to the wit-sparring comics no doubt lean on to stay in shape.

For mine, there’s been a _little_ padding in the lead up episodes, but overall the payoffs have been well worth the investment. A lot to like… very much looking forward to the remaining episodes. Season 3 please!… Expand
