{"product_id":"book-1f4w","title":"Sitcom","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA memoir from Chuck Lorre-one of the most prolific television writers and showrunners in TV history (\u003ci\u003eThe Big Bang Theory\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTwo and a Half Men\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMom, The Kominsky Method, Young Sheldon\u003c\/i\u003e), on his life, career, and the deal with all those vanity cards.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEver wonder what it’s like to spend decades making millions of strangers laugh — while trying not to lose your mind in the process?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs the creator of \u003ci\u003eThe Big Bang Theory, Two and a Half Men, Young Sheldon, Bookie, Dharma \u0026amp; Greg, Mom\u003c\/i\u003e, and more, Lorre has racked up almost two thousand half-hours of comedy. But his own story is just as outrageous, awkward, and surprisingly touching as the shows he built.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this memoir on his life and career in comedy, Lorre trades punchlines for real talk: the messy, very human truth behind Hollywood’s glossy façade, addiction, his own and that of his famous colleagues, his failed marriages, disastrous life choices, and chronic illness-all of which somehow became the ingredients for comedy. One chapter may leave you doubled over, the next might sneak in a lump in your throat — but that’s Chuck. That’s sitcoms. That’s also real life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you’ve ever binged \u003ci\u003eThe Big Bang Theory\u003c\/i\u003e, argued over your favorite \u003ci\u003eTwo and a Half Men \u003c\/i\u003echaracter, or wondered how TV comedy gets made, this is your all-access pass.
