A delicious black comedy, “Dead To Me” centers on two grieving women who meet in therapy. It’s a series about a powerful friendship that blossoms between these two: a tightly wound widow and a free spirit with a shocking secret.

Season 1 of Netflix’s “Dead to Me” twisted and turned like the path that brought Judy (Linda Cardellini) and Jen (Christina Applegate) together. With one rousing final reveal to end the season, viewers have been left waiting for the answers to what comes next.

Can “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel’s” Rachel Brosnahan make an Emmys comeback? After winning in 2018, she saw Phoebe Waller-Bridge win it for “Fleabag” last year. Now, “Schitt’s Creek’s” Catherine O’Hara appears to be in the driver’s seat for her iconic performance as Moira Rose. But, 2019’s surprise nominee Christina Applegate is waiting in the wings to surprise both frontrunners. We’re going with O’Hara for now, but Brosnahan and Applegate have a better shot than most people think.

Frankly, there was a lot we predicted and, shocker, a lot we didn’t.  The 2019 Emmy Award nominations displayed a wealth of love for shows saying goodbye such as “Game of Thrones” and “Veep.” They also reiterated their affection for “Barry,” “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver” and anything James Corden seems to touch.  But, as always, there were just as many snubs as there were surprises.

Laughter isn’t included in the five stages of grief of the Kübler-Ross model, but perhaps it should be given its own special role in the process. The argument for this can be found in the dark comedy “Dead to Me,” which mines profound loss for laughs, marrying humor and heartache often in a single moment. Created by Liz Feldman, this 10-episode Netflix series deals with the aftermath of the sudden death of a husband and father.

Though it doesn’t quite do for mothers what “Bridesmaids” did for single women, “Bad Moms” is a riotous comedy that left my theater echoing with shrieks, snorts and cackles. These aren’t the type of wry jokes that leave audiences nodding, smiling or chuckling politely; instead, they’re the ones that leave you wondering the next day if it was your Pilates class that made your abs so sore (nope).

Moms deserve a bit better than this spring’s trainwreck “Mother’s Day,” and they’re gonna get something that hopefully honors them a bit more with the upcoming raunchy comedy “Bad Moms.” Because title aside, the comedy starring Kristen Bell, Mila Kunis, Christina Applegate and Kathryn Hahn has a message to share — that no matter what shape motherhood takes, there are no bad choices when trying to do the best for your child.

Ever since the smash success of “Bridesmaids,” more ensemble female-driven comedies have been greenlit in an effort to duplicate that hit. This year we’ve already had “How To Be Single,” and this summer comes “Bad Moms.”

Starring Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, Kathryn Hahn, Christina Applegate, Jada Pinkett Smith and Annie Mumolo, and written and directed by Jon Lucas & Scott Moore (“The Hangover,” “21 and Over“), the story revolves around some alpha Moms who push some regular Moms to the brink, and war ensues.
