What’s on TV Sunday: ‘Kidding’ and ‘The Deuce’


Jim Carrey returns to television in his first continuing TV role since the ‘90s. And “The Deuce” moves to the disco age. What’s on TVKIDDING 10 p.m. on Showtime. “There’s no one I can’t sit with now, after what I’ve been through, and say, ‘What’s your thing — what’s your pain?’ And what an incredible place to be as an artist.” That’s what Jim Carrey, who has been mostly on hiatus since the 2015 death of his former girlfriend, recently told The New York Times. He returns in this new series under the direction of Michel Gondry, with whom he collaborated on “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.” Mr. Carrey plays Jeff Pickles, a Fred Rogers-like children’s-TV host who, at the start of the show’s premiere episode, sings the question, “Isn’t growing up funny and sweet?” Not really, it turns out; the image that follows is Mr. Carrey’s character watching footage of an armed conflict.
