Hosted by Mandel from The JFL Festival in Montréal, featuring one-of-a-kind performances from some of the best stand-up comedians today.
Filmed at the Comedy Cellar's iconic Village Underground in New York, "Senior Class of Earth” is Ted Alexandro's third hour-long comedy special (and/or comedy album), following “As Much As You Want” and “I Did It.” "Senior Class of Earth" effortlessly blends equal parts social commentary - surveying a world increasingly on the brink - with a healthy dose of personal reflections on subjects like being engaged to be married and the particular duties of a man in today’s world - for example, making sure all electronic devices remain charged. It's often said that "the personal is political," and Ted's new special exemplifies that ideal while keeping us all laughing.
Called "one of the funniest comedians working today" by Time Out New York magazine, Ted Alexandro has a unique style that is wickedly funny, brutally honest and hypnotically zen-like. Ted talks about being in his 40s and single, speaking fake Chinese, and racial tensions in America.
The director takes us on a hilarious tour from Dubai to Beirut, Riyadh to New York with a gaggle of other stand-up talent. Along the way, taboos of culture and geopolitics are exploded, and a younger generation of both comedy talents and audiences is born.
On November 15, 2003, Ted recorded a special one hour performance in front of a sold-out crowd at Flushing Town Hall in Queens, New York. Taking on everything from fitness ("I belong to a gym now... well, I don't belong there--but I go") to relationships ("Being single is a struggle between loneliness and euphoria... loneliness before you go to bed at night, and euphoria the whole rest of the day.") Ted's unique blend of observational humor and physical comedy offers something for everyone.
Ted has made multiple appearances on David Letterman, Conan O’Brien, Jimmy Kimmel, Craig Ferguson and The View. He’s had two half-hour specials on Comedy Central.
