In this video, we’re going over the ups and downs of Brett Butler’s life and career. We talk about her early days, and how she managed to turn years of abuse and alcoholism into hilarious stand up comedy. And how her brand of Southern charm and down-to-earth comedy were a perfect match, making both audiences and critics love her. We talk about the rise of her career to the point where she was one of the biggest stars on TV, and Grace Under Fire was a top hit. And that’s when things took a turn for the worst. We go over how an addiction to pain pills turned Brett from a happy and easygoing comic, to a truly difficult person to work with. And how, because of her, the show got canceled way earlier than it likely would have.
We go over her fall from grace, and how she had to move back to Georgia and live on a farm. That is until she couldn’t afford the farm anymore. We chronicle her journey back to Hollywood, and her slow and steady comeback through small roles, and potentially some new stand-up comedy.
