Interview: Alex Edelman on Audience Reactions, Universal Humor, and Crafting ‘Alex Edelman: Just for Us’

Awards Buzz spoke with Edelman about how he feels his show goes over with non-Jewish and Jewish crowds, and other memorable responses to his comedy. Watch the video above to hear about his small role in the Emmy-nominated TV movie Unfrosted and his work in the writers’ room of the short-lived sitcom The Great Indoors.
