In Rachel Bloom: Death, Let Me Do My Special, comedian Rachel Bloom starts out singing R-rated songs about trees but is quickly interrupted by Death, seen in human form in the audience pushing her to stop making jokes and get serious. From there, everything comes back to the crushing fear of death, whether it’s a pet, a child, or a good friend.
