I love how everyone looks prepared and professional with a good camera and dedicated spot and Jake looks like he is on his phone waiting in line at a KFC or something.

classic old grandpa Nick Miller being so behind with technology

[@lucaftf]

bold of you to assume he would ever own a Phone

[@tinaa5331]

@@lucaftf Real apps, the only thing you can trust so they're not beamed right into Snowden's pocket (to Wikileaks) because you never know what's gonna happen with a phone's hinges after they get wet and loosened over time and it's easier for people to see your passwords and once it breaks, your info is just out there in the twitterverse for all the little monkey elves to see because bottom line is you can't control your technology like in Japan with all those robots. Not for Nick Miller, that's why he prefers a good ol' fashioned hard copy.

[@nekenah]

but Jake asking the question and then blaming Max is such a Nick move tho lmaooo

“Please don’t interrupt” typically Schmidt 🤣

[@maddiecohen7338]

HAHA YES

[@safia3578]

I think he was interviewed about his role and he did say that the role was basically made for him in the sense that it’s so much like him and no one else could have played it and he will be forever grateful for it.

[@evanholly3649]

Yes, he sounds a bit upset with Jake but in a Schmidt way

[@saintvvv97]

I love the fact “Winston” put up the picture of “Nick’s dad” on his phone, because I only know them by their characters lmao

[@alexcarey5974]

that’s the actor they were talking about

[@abzd6535]

And then Damon/Coach was like “oh” as if he just realized who it was 😂

[@anitapatel3591]

Yeah, that was nice to do for the audience 🙂😎

[@sw9618]

I actually think it was to pay tribute to Dennis, who passed away in 2013

[@Hi-ee8ln]

At what time

[@DarkComatose15]

“Well him and I had a great relationship” Ahh winston still trying to be closer to pop pop than everyone else

[@troubleshooter1900]

That’s EXACTLY what I thought!! He took it worse than Nick!

[@mkm282]

I bet there was one of those classic Winston Farina mess-arounds

[@minervag6777]

crying at this comment hahhahahah

[@joelnjabo5820]

Everything about that story seems like a typical Nick and Schmidt story.

[@maddiecohen7338]

YES

[@audreygabbard432]

Jake genuinely crying so hard at this story is warms my heart

His face, so red. Lol

Jake and Max are the disaster duo that I miss every day

[@maddiecohen7338]

SAME

[@giselle5738]

Someone from the cast should make a podcast talking about all the behind the scene stuff that happened on set.... like the girls from the office... that would be lovely!!

[@MiceAl487]

Yo I'd listen tf outta that podcast

[@grete6299]

I’m sure they all have other projects going on. Seems like a lot of the office cast never moved on from the show and I tried listening to the podcast but it kinda killed the show for me. Seemed like overdoing it.

[@BriDarling43]

I would love it! There's gotta be so many wild stories from that set! 😂😂

[@srustimangaraj5617]

They just announced it. Zooey, Hannah and Lamorne are doing it. It's called "Welcome to our show"🌻😭

[@jahnavibangara8827]

Here over a year later, and zooey, Hannah and lamorne actually DID make a podcast!! Wow you really predicted it ahahaha

[@alyssaocampo13]

I was crying laughing before Max even told the story because of how hard Jake, Lamorne, and Damon were laughing 😭

[@sarahruth8685]

How are they just like their characters!!?!??

[@Prince_the_One]

I miss Jesse ❣️

[@jasonalangriffin]

That’s the way acting works. Your personality fills in the character. They don’t literally pretend to be someone else. They just say the lines as themselves and it becomes the character.

[@petehanna3250]

In one interview Jake said that he and Max play their characters during interviews because they know the audience/fans love that

[@sw9618]

@@jasonalangriffin I disagree entirely. In this video they're just joking around. Max isn't talking like Schmidt at all. Is there some kind of an overlap? Sure. But saying they don't pretend to be someone else goes against the art of acting, it's insulting to every single actor who works hard to make a character authentic and real.

[@hurain6597]

@@sw9618 that’s so true

[@kazm.3932]

THIS SOUNDS LIKE AN ACTUAL NEW GIRL EPISODE SFHSJSSH

The way max says "I think that'll be a really bad idea" is so schmidt

Oh man max is such a great storyteller, his delivery is hilarious. and it definitely helps that jake is cry-laughing through it all

[@ajsuflena156]

jake looked like he was dying of laughter before max even started telling the story

[@ijeoma7963]

so what i'm hearing is jake and max really weren't doing all that much acting in new girl

[@SydneyKong]

i thought dennis farina was the landlord but then lamorne showed a picture of dennis farina and then i realized that it was nick's dead dad. LMAOOOOOO

[@karolineja]

he is dead in real life too
