Fred Armisen Jams With Conan’s Band in This Week’s Funniest Videos
This week we're laughing at Fred on the drums and Aubrey Plaza on Comedy Bang! Bang!.
Posted by Mike Schuster on
It’s Father’s Day weekend, which can mean anything from bear hugs to awkward silence over TV dinners. But whatever your plans are for Sunday (a Stephen King movie marathon with dear ol’ dad, perhaps?), gear up for the weekend with a fleet of funny videos. (Dad can’t ground you for that, right?)
From Fred Armisen sitting in with the Basic Cable Band to Aubrey Plaza staring down death on Comedy Bang! Bang!, here are five funny things from this week you need to watch.
1. Amy Schumer and Anna Wintour Swap Lives
To celebrate her appearance on the cover of Vogue, comedian Amy Schumer spent a day in editor/fashion maven Anna Wintour’s stylish (and no doubt uncomfortable) shoes. Meanwhile, Anna hits the comedy club and tries out her new catchphrase, “Wintour is coming.”
2. Aubrey Plaza Goes Medieval, Almost Dies
Queen of shade Aubrey Plaza swings by Comedy Bang! Bang! tonight as a fair maiden of snark and sass. But due to an overzealous lunch, Aubrey finds herself flirting with mortality. (Catch back-to-back CB!B! episodes Fridays starting at 11P.)
3. Fred Armisen’s Jazz Drumming Tutorial
Fred stopped by Conan this week to show off a clip from Documentary Now! season two and talk about hosting the SNL season finale. And since he can never resist the opportunity for a drum sesh, Fred jumped behind the skins with the band and showed how easy jazz drummers have it.
4. They Might Be Giants/Star Wars Mashup
They Might Be Giants traffics in a special brand of musical pep. And as this mashup of Star Wars: The Force Awakens and TMBG’s fragmented track “Fingertips” off their 1992 album Apollo 18 proves, there might be a TMBG song for every occasion.
5. Honest Trailers: Finding Nemo
Looking back at a pre-Cars 2 Pixar is to witness a movie studio that can seemingly do no wrong. However, as the latest edition of “Honest Trailers” shows us, even Pixar in its prime isn’t immune to plot holes or logical incongruities. With Finding Dory hitting theaters, check out this lovingly nitpicky takedown of 2003’s Finding Nemo.
