Apple TV+ has officially ordered a new dramedy series titled “I’m Glad My Mom Died”, based on Jennette McCurdy’s bestselling memoir. Jennifer Aniston is attached to star in the show and will also serve as an executive producer.

In many ways, McCurdy’s story is not so different from the classic tale of almost every other Hollywood child star with a stage mother who indulges in her dose of fame by living vicariously through her children. But what makes this particular narrative stand out among the rest is McCurdy’s unwavering devotion to honesty even in moments that are difficult to read, let alone write.
