Reviews:
“Many would argue that you shouldn’t make jokes out of death and suicide but he does it very well and the end result is a very funny, but also very moving hour with Michael with a particularly touching, wonderful final moment.” – David Lupin
“It’s wonderfully honest and funny.” – Brad Garrett
“In a special that was already very personal, it slowly moves past comedy itself and for a moment we share just a little bit of his pain. Laugh After Death is a great example of how compelling an artist can make their voice by simply being themselves.” – Mike Gates
