Emmy nominee Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini are friendship goals. 👯♀️
The show is a comedy, a serious drama and a mystery, and achieves each of those things with aplomb. It confronts grief, betrayal and guilt, while enjoying the easy humor of a great friendship and the edgier laughs that come from extreme behavior.
Applegate has called “Dead to Me” a “traumedy,” elaborating in an Emmy Contenders chat at the Los Angeles Times video studio: “If you say it’s like a dramedy, it’s not — it’s trauma. These people are going through trauma.”“Dead to Me” follows acerbic Jen , a successful real estate agent coping with the recent unexpected death of her husband. In a grief group, she meets Judy , a positive-thinking artist who, despite being so different in temperament from Jen, becomes her closest friend.
Applegate brought her own experience as a breast-cancer survivor into the show, suggesting Jen go through a similar situation — with devastating impact. Show creator Liz Feldman once told her “Jen is basically you.” “We love doing those scenes [together] because … we also didn’t have to cry and we could talk about nonsense and be funny and also … at the end of the scene, improv, because they were very loose about what we did,” says Applegate. “There’s probably about 10 minutes of [unused] footage of the scene of us smoking pot on the beach, of us just improvving two stoned people.
