Reporter Has No Idea He Is Interviewing Bob Odenkirk

A reporter in Calgary was sent out to do man in the street interviews about Fargo being filmed in Calgary. He stops a man and asks him questions about the show and never realizes that Bob Odenkirk, the man he is interviewing actually stars on the show.

    1. Wigs, I'm guessing the reporter is interviewing someone he thinks is a random dude off the street, but is actually the star of the show he is asking about

  7. I think a Canadian needs to take this on and translate for the rest of us. I only speak American.

  9. Well he's pretty dull. And all i got from that really is that it looks the f**k cold so I won't be moving to Calgary any time soon.

  10. I love the news!fail with best the Vancouver reporter who interviewed Kevin Bieksa thinking he was Ryan Kesler - both are players on the Canucks.

    (See: Kes is American but Bieks is Canadian. Bieks spent the interview trolling America and the reporter never caught on).

  11. I didn't watch it but how can anyone not know Saul Goodman?!

  12. My speakers shut down almost every time I try to watch an entyvid. Must be my speakers trying to look out for my best interest. Thanks speakers!

    I love Bob Odenkirk though. Any Mr. Show lovers out in the audience today?

  17. Fargo is a great TV show.
    Bob Odenkirk is way underused.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. @Seinfeld I don't think he's underused, I'm pretty sure he's more of a writer than an actor

  18. Okok ill do it...

    Better Call Saul!

    This interview was adorable!

    ReplyDelete
  19. @hammer. Exactly! Right? If you watched and claim to be a Breaking Bad fan, you should recognize his jaw and voice as Saul.

  21. Fargo finale tomorrow! Can't wait. It is funny that the reporter had no idea he was talking to a main character in the show!

  22. I haven't watched Fargo, the movie or show. Now that I know Bob O. is on it I guess I know how I'll be filling my nights now. Do I have to watch the movie first?

    1. The movie is AMAZING, Hammer! Go Bears

    2. Movie and show are different, when the Coens said it was a true story, they were joking. So watch in any order you please, the show is much darker though.

      Delete
    3. The movie is covered in awesome sauce! Favorite parts include "he's kinda funny lookin'"

  23. Fargo the movie was great Hammer watch it you'll enjoy

    ReplyDelete
  24. It would have been awesome if Bob told that reporter to shut his stinking trap.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I would definitely suggest watching the movie before the show as there are quite a few references. Also the movie is genius, so it needs to be watched regardless.

    LOVE Mr. Show, I am obsessed. Had a huge crush on Bob Odenkirk (eh let's be honest, I still do).

  26. Derek and TTM - you are cracking me up!

    Derek - winter bonnets? hahaha - that was funny (and let's face it, we are total fashion whores here in Toronto).

    TTM - omg - he is so cute! I guess it was inevitable that Robert Ford would become a verb as well.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Glad he didn't go all "Don't you know who I am?" on the reporter.

  28. Does it sound staged to someone else than me? Former adopted CAlgarian here. It took me a while to recognize Inglewood.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I'm a Calgarian! Trust me... it's hard to recognize people when all dressed out in touques, winter gear etc.
    Sophie - Inglewood has gone through a big revitalization the past few years. It got hit really hard by the flood last year. Hard to believe that was a year ago on Friday.

  30. November cannot get here soon enough for me. Bob Odenkirk is genius as Saul.

  31. The reporter should be grateful we didn't ship his ass off to Belize!!!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I can't wait for Better Call Saul (but I hope it's better than some of AMC's recent offerings, like Low Winter Sun, Turn, and Halt and Catch Fire).

    ReplyDelete
  33. He should know better... The first question is always "Give me your name and spell it please."

    MOS can be tough. If you need three sots, ask 20 people. I try to get at least five or six if I'm using MOS in a pack, and it can take an hour or two finding people willing to talk on camera.

  34. Have known Bob since before he hit it big. A great guy and like most comedians, very shy.

  35. No doot aboot it, baumyak!

  36. Huge Mr. Show (and Ben Stiller Show) fan here. Odenkirk was a hugely talented writer/comedian who switched to character actor at the right time. I don't think much of his latest comedy efforts (the films he directed or his work with The Birthday Boys), but the the guy was in Titannica, Three Times One Minus One, Wycked Scepter, Indomitable Spirit, and his shoe hurts.
