For Judd Apatow, it’s probably easier to work on TV shows and movies where the feedback isn’t quite so immediate and in his face.
Not that Apatow’s feedback was anything but joy-filled during the special or anything, since the filthy-minded writer/director definitely has a ton of fans out there, and plenty of them were in audience for Judd Apatow: The Return.
After all, quite a few stand-up stars have suffered from inferiority complexes that make it harder for them to mentally understand rabid fans’ attention.
Strangely, that’s a feeling that strikes a lot of comedians and others who would seemingly be quite sure of themselves when it comes to performing in front of others.
