Director: Natasha Rothwell
How to Die Alone is a 2024 American comedy series created by and starring Natasha Rothwell, now available with Persian dubbing and subtitles on K-Time. The half-hour series follows an airport worker named Melissa as she rethinks what she wants from her own life.
What is How to Die Alone about?
Melissa works at a New York airport, ferrying other people's luggage while quietly avoiding her own. A sudden brush with death forces her to take stock: she has never let herself want anything fully, whether in love, in her career, or in how she treats her own body and confidence. Rather than play it safe, she starts pushing back against the smaller life she has settled into, testing new relationships, new risks, and a version of herself she has kept hidden for years. The series treats her awakening with warmth and sharp humor rather than easy sentimentality, following the messy, funny fallout as Melissa learns to ask for more.
Cast & crew
Natasha Rothwell, known for her work on other ensemble comedies, both created the series and plays Melissa, giving the character a lived-in mix of self-deprecation and steel. She is joined by Conrad Ricamora, Jocko Sims, and KeiLyn Durrel Jones, whose characters orbit Melissa's world at work and at home, each pulling her in a different direction as she tries to figure out who she wants to become.
Context & significance
For Persian-speaking viewers abroad, workplace comedies like this one travel well: the humor sits in universal frustrations, dead-end jobs, family pressure, the fear of wanting too much, rather than references that need footnotes. K-Time's Persian dub and subtitle options make the show's rapid, character-driven dialogue easy to follow without losing its rhythm or its punchlines.
Where & how to watch
How to Die Alone streams on K-Time with a Farsi-language interface, available with both Persian dubbing and subtitles. Watching requires a free K-Time account login; there is no VPN or region-locking to work around, and the show can be watched on phones, tablets, computers, and TVs.
