A Darkly Funny Take on Love, Loss, and Letting Go
My Dead Mom is a darkly funny and heartfelt series created by Wendy Litner and executive produced by Lauren Corber. It follows Emmy, a young woman trying to move on after her mother’s death—except her mom, Fern, is still very much present, offering opinions on everything from lipstick to life choices.
Blending humor with emotional depth, the series explores grief, identity, and the lasting bond between mothers and daughters. With sharp wit and honest storytelling, My Dead Mom shows how love, even after loss, continues to shape who we become.

Personal stuff for me. My mother came out of an old picture behind my computer a few years ago and typed ‘Mom’ on an outgoing message on my cell phone. I got a haircut the next day. For real. Wendy and Lauren use their character, Emmy, to explore her struggle to make peace with her dead mother, who keeps hanging around. Hugely funny premise. This is the second collaboration with Wendy and Lauren. Their first, How to Buy a Baby.’ I relate to that too. Exceptional bonding with my guests. They are pure energy, comedic brilliance, honest, and poised. Beyond the comedy, heavy elements here. They stressed that relationships don’t end. Loved their mentioning Erma Bombeck’s quote about wishing she had let the kids sit on the good couch. Absurdity is funny. I agree. I watched the trailer twice. Preciously funny as Wendy and Lauren are. And serious too. And brave. Dealing with confronting grief right on. Madelyn Albright came up in the chat. More bravery on their part. They bring on death directly. Our culture avoids it. I know. What a special interview. Hours later, there is still tinnitus in my ears, thinking about Wendy and Lauren.” Calvin ?️ 700+ Interviews & Videos ? 9,400+ Subscribers — and growing ?
