@cbcgem: Kumail Nanjiani did a ton of research to prep for this 2014 improv sketch. Emily V. Gordon recently mentioned there was no script, only the note: “Carrie and Fred want to buy a cell phone in a hurry. You won’t let them do it in a hurry.” Kumail learned all about different phone plans so no matter what they said, he’d have something to combat it. 📺: Portlandia #KumailNanjiani #FredArmisen #CarrieBrownstein

I need Gen Z to understand that this really WAS the experience of buying a cell phone between 2004 and 2010

Kumail must’ve worked at a Roger’s call centre at some point for that level of upselling. Takes one to know one
