The Comedy World of Judd Apatow & Friends
![]() Monday, March 17 |
Watch a video highlight clip from this event!
Before Judd Apatow’s stunning string of critically acclaimed cinematic blockbusters (The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Superbad) confirmed his status as Hollywood’s king of comedy, he quietly built a reputation among the cognoscenti as one of the small screen’s brightest (if underappreciated) talents with his work on fiercely intelligent, original, and sorely missed television series, including The Ben Stiller Show, The Larry Sanders Show, Freaks and Geeks, and Undeclared. Apatow’s phenomenal popular success in recent years has been immensely gratifying for we fans of his thoughtful, character-based brand of television comedy. Apatow and a selection of his frequent collaborators will discuss the method and madness behind his remarkable body of work.

Question is for Jason Segal.
Jason I heard you are writing the script for the next Muppets movie. Can you tell us anything about it? How you got involved or what the script may be about?

Mr.Hill, you are hilarious! You’re great at what you do. Which actors do you look up to? Also, have you looked into any serious roles recently?
