If you haven’t seen Nathan Fielder’s The Rehearsal on HBO, do yourself a favor and get caught up. The second season just ended. (Also, if you haven’t seen Fielder’s even better series, The Curse, on Showtime, definitely watch that ASAP.) Here was Fielder in a brilliantly cringe CNN interview today with anchors Wolf Blitzer and Pamela Brown, in which Fielder tells Brown that she “has to say that” when she praises Blitzer:

I can’t believe this went on for 17 minutes. Here’s the full interview:

“We don’t want you to die either.”
