“I don’t have a crisis anymore. I know I don’t exist.” That’s how beloved funnyman Jim Carrey responded when our reporter Dave Itzkoff asked him if he thought he was experiencing an existential crisis. The actor’s new @showtime series, “Kidding,” debuts on Sunday. It’s his first ongoing TV role since “In Living Color.” But he’s not in a laughing mood. #JimCarrey said he regards it as “the first thing I’ve done since I quit the business.” Not that he ever officially submitted a resignation letter to Hollywood. “I mean, in my head,” he said. “I struggled for a few years with the idea of, OK, what now? You get to it sooner or later, if you accomplish a lot of stuff.” His past accomplishments are staggering: “Ace Ventura: Pet Detective,” “Dumb and Dumber,” “The Mask,” “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.” He made a credible crossover into serious fare like “Man on the Moon” and reached a kind of creative zenith in “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.” But lately his creative output has slowed to a trickle. Today, the actor — photographed here by @ryanpfluger — is 56. He can still twist his face into the contorted countenance of the Grinch when he wants to elicit a laugh. But, to pose a question that @shokidding asks repeatedly: How much can art really do to assuage the suffering of the people who make it?
