Eden Sher: I Was On a Sitcom
I Was On A Sitcom is a show about finding out who you are when your TV show ends and your “real life” begins. Because when you’ve played a character on TV for a decade, what exactly does it mean to “be yourself?” This show offers a rare intimate glimpse inside a popular sitcom actor’s real, raw life. You will walk away feeling like you’ve made a new friend — and learned more about birthing twins than you ever did before. It’s funny, it’s dark, vulnerable, and disarmingly casual — it’s like having a night out with Eden herself, telling you a story over drinks.

Eden Sher starred on ABC’s The Middle for 9 years as the beloved character Sue Heck. Eden was hailed by Vulture as “the breakout star of the series” and Emily Nussbaum of The New Yorker wrote “[Sher] gives a fearless performance as Sue.” Sher was nominated for a Critic’s Choice Award 5 times for the role, winning in 2013. After The Middle ended, she shot a pretty sick spinoff pilot for her character, which ABC “regretfully passed on.” She also voiced the character Star on Disney Channel’s Star Vs. The Forces of Evil, which ran for 5 seasons. In 2020, she gave birth to two people in the span of 20 minutes, and has succeeded in keeping those two people alive for over two years now.
