30 Rock star admits housing situation is ‘difficult,’ has slept on an air mattress for months
Judah Friedlander, who played writer Frank Rossitano on Emmy Award-winning 30 Rock, revealed this week he’s resorted to sleeping on an air mattress since the show wrapped last January.
“I’ve been [looking for an apartment] and sleeping on an air mattress for eight months,” the comedian told Page Six on Wednesday. “I find the entire process… difficult.”
Although Judah continues to work as a stand-up comic, he implied his broker was less than trustworthy when it came to money management.
“I figured out his lying skills,” he said of the broker. “Now I can read when he lies, and when he doesn’t. That took a few months.”
Judah is also at a disadvantage because of the competitive New York City rental market — and even hinted this week that he’s grown desperate for a new home.
If u have an apartment, building or entire block for rent or sublet in NYC let me know.

He elaborated to Page Six that he does have an apartment, but it has “mold and musty problems” and he doesn’t want to contaminate a real mattress.
“I don’t want all that bad air seeping into [a] mattress I buy… Then taking it to new apartment that’s not polluted.”
Fortunately for Judah’s health, he is on the road a lot with his “World Champion” tour.
