Jim Carrey Is Basically a Tortured Soul Mr. Rogers in Showtime's 'Kidding' Trailer
Jim Carrey is Mr. Pickles. And Mr. Pickles is in his feelings right now.
The new Showtime series "Kidding" marks a reunion for Jim Carrey with his brilliant "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" director Michel Gondry.
The drama costars Catherine Keener, Frank Langella, and Judy Greer, and premieres this September.
Here's the synopsis for "Kidding":
"In his first series regular role in over two decades, Jim Carrey stars as Jeff, aka Mr. Pickles, an icon of children's television, a beacon of kindness and wisdom to America's impressionable young minds, who also anchors a multimillion-dollar branding empire. But when Jeff's family begins to implode, he finds no fairy tale or fable or puppet will guide him through the crisis, which advances faster than his means to cope. The result: a kind man in a cruel world faces a slow leak of sanity as hilarious as it is heartbreaking."
And here's the awkward and heartbreaking trailer (featuring Conan O'Brien):Watch the "In Living Color" alum in his small screen return when "Kidding" premieres Sunday, September 9 at 10 p.m. ET on Showtime.
