Alex Edelman: Just For Us (2024)
Winner of the 2024 Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special, the Alex Edelman: Just For Us is taken from the comedian’s Tony Award-winning solo Broadway show.
The HBO comedy special centres on a bizarre experience: in the wake of anti-Semitic threats online, Edelman covertly attends a meeting of white nationalists and comes face-to-face with the people behind the keyboards. What happens next forms the backbone of the shockingly relevant and utterly hilarious stories that comprise Just for Us.
The Washington Post calls Just for Us “a joyous 90-minute excursion through Edelman’s insights and autobiography … diamond-cut perfection” from “one of the funniest minds of his generation. Or maybe any generation.”
