30 Rock star is gearing up for Cats’ challenge

Judah Friedlander has twice been a guest on the Late Show With David Letterman. Still the host can’t figure him out. “He’s just full-blown goofy,” reckons Letterman.

Tina Fey, Friedlander’s co-star on the Emmy Award-winning show 30 Rock concurs. “He’s one of the all-time weirdoes,” she told Letterman, but stressed he’s “such a lovely guy” he gets away with it.

Friedlander’s one-liners tend to be sharp. “I saw a one-handed man in a second-hand shop,” he says, deadpan on stage, “and I told him, ‘I don’t think you’re going to find what you’re looking for’.”
