Sick Note creators James Serafinowicz and Nat Saunders have become a Netflix sensation for their black comedy about faking cancer - and revealed their thoughts on the show after James was diagnosed with the disease a couple of years later
James Serafinowicz, co-creator of Netflix's "Sick Note," a black comedy about faking cancer, was diagnosed with kidney cancer a few years after the show's release. The series, which revolves around a man and his doctor maintaining a cancer ruse, resonated deeply with James as he found parallels between the fictional plot and his real-life diagnosis. Despite the serious nature of his illness, James used humor to cope, as he and co-creator Nat Saunders did not alter the show. "Sick Note" gained popularity on Netflix, with James noting that the show's humor helped him navigate his diagnosis. The series remains unchanged, reflecting their approach to handling tragedy with comedy.
