May I just congratulate you on the Carol Burnett award--
You can.
--that you are receiving?
Thank you.
[CROWD CHEERING]
Last year was the first award.
And I was able to present it to Carol Burnett.
And it was just a high point of my life.
So congratulations.
Thank you.
That's a great honor.
I know, I remember you giving it to her.
I thought being named "The Carol Burnett Award"
she would win every year.
But she's apparently lost this year to me.
I know.
And she is pissed.
Yeah, I bet she is.
No, she called me.
She was so happy that I was getting it.
It's really cool.
It's super cool.
Yeah, I'm honored.
Hey, I was Cardi B for--
I was "Cardi E" for Halloween.
And you know Cardi B, because you did the Super Bowl
commercials with her.
Kind of.
So did you enjoy being around her?
Never met her.
No?
Yes.
The day that we shot, they were separate days.
So they had a double, and they shot over the double, to me.
And they shot over my double to her.
And I've never met her.
And it's-- it's--
it's a tragedy, really.
It is.
Well, now that we all know it, it is a tragedy.
We all just assumed that was--
Nope.
--the two of you together.
See, that's not her, right there.
No.
Well, that was excellent acting on both of your parts,
because you fooled us.
We thought that she was there and you were there.
It's kind of magic.
Yeah.
And you learned the okuur (IMITATING CARDI B SAYING
"OKuur").
Oh, yeah.
My kids love when I do that.
Do it.
Okuur. (IMITATING CARDI B SAYING "OKuur")
[LAUGHTER]
You did it.
They think I am so lame when I do that.
It's the worst.
But you have to do it to embarrass your children.
Do you do that around them a lot?
Oh, yeah.
I mean, it's pretty cool that you were
in a commercial with Cardi B.
Oh, yeah, for sure.
Did you send me the picture of you waving goodbye
to your kids, or did Vance send it to me?
I think that was Vance.
OK.
So you sent it to Vance, and then he--
so my brother and Steve have known
each other for a long time, from "The Daily Show."
Can I say what you do?
Yeah.
It's hilarious.
So just to embarrass his kids, he-- what was the-- what
were you wearing?
A head of some kind?
It's a dog mask.
OK.
A huge dog head.
And when his kids are going off to school, he stands out
and waves goodbye wearing a dog head on his body.
And I usually am holding some sort of household appliance.
My wife will get in the car, and she'll drive out to the street.
So I'll run out to the street, just as the car's passing
by in front of our house, and I'll have the dog mask
on-- and usually, like, pajamas or a robe--
holding a blender.
And just going like this.
And it's always something different.
Oh, my God.
And do your neighbors ever see that?
There have been some odd looks, yeah.
There have been some stares.
I would love to be your neighbor, just to enjoy things
like that.
I think that's hilarious.
But I mean it's pretty cool that you are doing
all the things you're doing.
You're in the Billie Eilish video.
I mean, there's some cool things.
She references you in--
Yeah, there was some definite credibility
I gained with my children, with the Billie Eilish thing.
Have you ever met her?
I never had.
And I still haven't.
But she called to ask whether she could use some Michael
Scott stuff for her album.
And I was not familiar with her music.
And I asked my daughter, Annie, I said--
Billie Eilish-- would this be cool?
And instantly-- oh, Dad, yeah.
Yeah, you have to do that.
That's totally cool.
So, yeah, I got a lot of cred, especially with my daughter.
It seems like cool people want to be
associated with you, but not in the same room with you.
[LAUGHTER]
Right.
That's exactly right.
That's what it seems like to me.
Yes.
A distant association.
Right.
Because, right up close, not so cool anymore.
No, no.
I can feel that now.
I know.
You mentioned "The Office."
Now, is there a chance-- they're doing all these reboots.
Would you want to do a reboot of "The Office?"
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
I want to announce--
[CROWD CHEERING]
I heard Jennifer Aniston was on, and you guys
were talking about a reboot of "Friends."
Yes.
I would like to announce, there will be a reboot of "Friends."
Right.
You know what I thought would be a great idea for "The Office?"
Not reboot "The Office," but take "The Office"
cast and reboot "Cheers."
So, like, I would be Sam.
And Jenna would be-- you know?
Like, just take different characters.
That's a great idea.
It's a terrible idea.
No, no.
I actually do like it.
I like the idea of switching casts with different shows.
Or even "Gilligan's Island."
Like, if you all--
you just recreated-- or "Beverly Hillbillies,"
like, all of our favorite old shows.
That would be great.
Sure.
I could be Jethro.
Oh, he was great.
And he always ate cereal out of a salad bowl.
Yes.
Remember that?
A huge, huge amount of cereal.
Nobody knows what we're talking about.
And every time, there would be a doorbell.
And then finally people got sick of hearing the doorbell
and they would knock.
And he goes, after that music, there's
always somebody at the door.
He never put it together that it was--
anyway.
We have to take a break.
We'll take a break, and we'll talk
about things you care about.
We'll be back.
