Between Two Ferns is awesome, and I admit that was pretty funny.

Buuuuttt...I've always felt that standing presidents should stay away from comedy shows. Just seems unprofessional.

It was basically a clever ad for Obamacare. His "aim" is to get as many young people as possible to sign up for Obamacare to make it viable, so in that essence, this hits directly at that target.

Older folks won't get it or understand it; obviously.

Just watched the Bruce Willis one. Greatness. How many of these has he done?

Not sure. I've seen about 7 or 8 of them. I'll have to seek out the rest of them though; I thought he'd stopped doing it.

The Natalie Portman one was awesome too. "You shaved your head for V for Vandetta. Did you also shave your V for Vagina?"

These have to be fake and scripted. If they are they lose lots of funny points.

Just 6.

If its obviously known its fake, then its not funny. It it were actually real, it would be pretty funny.


Why can't it just be funny? When you watched the video, did you laugh? If so, you think it's funny. If not, you don't, and that's okay too. Why does it matter if there's a script or not? Did you know that TV shows and movies are also scripted? They can still be funny... I've seen it.
