Showtime announces premiere dates for I’m Dying Up Here and Guerrilla
Earlier today, Showtime president and CEO David Nevins appeared before the Television Critics Association winter press tour for the second executive session of the week. Part of the discussion revolved around the imminent arrival of two new series that were announced last spring: Guerrilla, the limited series starring Idris Elba and Freida Pinto; and I’m Dying Up Here, a one-hour drama from executive producer Jimi Carrey about the 1970s stand-up comedy scene in Los Angeles. Both shows will premiere this spring, with John Ridley’s six-part event series bowing on April 16 at 9 p.m. ET, while I’m Dying Up Here will kick off on Sunday, June 4 at 10 p.m. ET.
