I love the look of sheer disgust after he makes that metaphor about "baby chicks". Jeff and Kumail are my favorite guest stars. Always the same character yet always working a different job.
i agree, i LOVE Goldblum just the way he says "doily there" in the beginning...just so feken awesome..you're absolutely right a scene stealer like Jolie or DiCaprio Cumberbatch Cilian Murphy Tom Hardey or Denzel or Johansen Tatum Ryan Reynolds Chevy Chase Streepe Deniro Pacino Pitt Edward Nortan and Colin Farrell
And Fred set it up when he said, "We could have something...We could" Jeff immediately picked it up when he interrupted "Yeah! Right?" while he mirrored the gesture again
swish007 I feel like i could accidentally fart in front of him and he'd just do his classic jurassic park laugh and proceed to tell me a story about somethin related to farts ♡
fhhh that was nice of you to go all the way through and explain it for those that didn't understand the humor behind all of it. you have to be able to appreciate and understand this type of comedy, which is why I have a lot of friends/people i know that say its a boring show and/or not fuuny
1:23 I love how he rolls his own eyes at himself here like he's sick of these kinds of people but knows they're the easiest sale if he makes them feel good 😂
Every thing Jeff does, his voice, his face, his movements... everything is so perfect. Every moment he's on camera is packed full of these little surprises! He's magic. Must be.
TheRubberStudiosASMR He's always like, suppressing yawns or burps or something. It's absolutely hysterical. Makes him so human. He does that on Conan too. Conan calls him out on it. It's on youtube somewhere if you want to check it out.
1:04 dive down seems like he had to burp after swallowing back some quick "reallys" just before. I get the idea someone on set had some marvelous macaroons that he munched on before he caught wind that filming has begun
Goldblum is a literal comedic genius - his noises, the way he intentionally stutters to build anticipation, the way he says half his lines as if he thinks he might burp mid sentence…I could watch this man for hours on end. Hilarious! Oh and Fred and his wife are great too (The last sentence is a joke I know they’re not married. They are also hilarious though)
I love that I typed "It's the classic scale" in the search area and TH-cam knew exactly what scene I wanted to see. I'm happy to see so many others that appreciate the classic scale in the comments.
I still love how genuine this whole sketch felt. Also its so obvious when the guys start taking off and putting their glasses back on how they are close to laughing. I lvoe everything about this sketch.
+lindsey paulson i gotta imagine quite a bit. ive seen quite a few interviews with goldblum where he says "theres nothing wrong with that" like he does in this sketch
Most comedy is, surprisingly. Even movies. When you watch all the outtakes it's mostly just people riffing off one another. Like they have a rough outline of a certain scene or sketch and then just wing it from there and use the funniest take.
I used to go to the doily store with my grandmother. They were always busiest at holiday season. Of course that was before Walmart and Amazon cornered the doily market...
I just f**king love this entire series. The skits for stores, entities and events for very specific tastes and minutiae (Doily Shoppe, Women and Women First, Allergy Pride, etc) are rife with comedic genius, as is the entire show.
“Ok one please “ “It’s the classic scale, there’s nothing wrong with that “ “Boy he’s got a great set of pipes” “Really? Reaaaallly?” This skit is packed with the funniest one liners 😂😂😂😂
The whole glasses skit got me rolling. The fact that Jeff (or Cheff for all you Tim and Eric fans..) Tosses the glasses down too was exceptionally priceless. As one gets older or care free? That's one of the many thing - as important and dear those glasses Are - you get careless with lol. Plus! I have a doily curtain that Constantly gets snagged on it's curtain rod. Extremely infuriating! :)
Holy larwdy. I have watched this so many times and laughed my ass off every time. I don't want to sound like one of those pretentious art critics picking apart and "interpreting"but the subtext is just masterful. It all culminates at 1:23 and the expression he lets slip, showing he knows his own BS. That's how I see it anyhow.

The disgust in himself for the bird analogy is so great
Goldblum is the perfect Portlandia guest star.
Agreed! Love him!
He should be a regular tbh.
See this knot ? Whaaaaaaaat happened ? Mind = blown
It just works.
I know right!
Goldblum isn't even acting here. He's literally just being himself.
honestly
That's why I love him.
Does Goldblum ever "act" any differently? lol
😆
He only shows his true form when he's watching you poop.
its the classic scale nothing wrong with that
It was like "I'm a musician too you mf, I see what you did there" Lmao
I love this. Wish that was a real store. I could always use some decent doilies for setting things on top of wood surfaces
Well there isnt🙃
That side eye he gives him as he says it lol.
It got me. It really did.
I love the look of sheer disgust after he makes that metaphor about "baby chicks". Jeff and Kumail are my favorite guest stars. Always the same character yet always working a different job.
I'm trying to understand that part. Did he regret using that metaphor or what was wrong?
Yeah, I think it was a look of "Oh god, what the hell did I just say?" as if he's incredulous towards his own pun. So yeah, regret.
this is really funny
Jeff owns every scene he's in. I bet most of this was improvised.
i agree, i LOVE Goldblum just the way he says "doily there" in the beginning...just so feken awesome..you're absolutely right a scene stealer like Jolie or DiCaprio Cumberbatch Cilian Murphy Tom Hardey or Denzel or Johansen Tatum Ryan Reynolds Chevy Chase Streepe Deniro Pacino Pitt Edward Nortan and Colin Farrell
1:30 That hilarious bit looks improvised to me. It seems like Jeff scratched his eye for real, and Fred went for it haha brilliant
You're right, they're both obviously trying hard not to crack up afterwards
Yes. You can tell they are starting to crack during this part.
Crack
And Fred set it up when he said, "We could have something...We could" Jeff immediately picked it up when he interrupted "Yeah! Right?" while he mirrored the gesture again
I took my glasses off and rubbed my eye during that part involuntarily
Fred singing the major scale with no technique or articulation, softly, bashfully, and apologetic is so funny
Nothing wrong with the classic scale
it gets me every time
Fred is a genius
And from middle c which everyone in the world can do.
Bashful secret karaoke man
"Beautiful. It's the classic scale. There's nothing wrong with that." I freaking love Jeff Goldblum.
And delivering that line with his kind smile and casual charm.
Yeah, that line, delivered as it is here. is the top of the comic arch for this sketch.
@@stevenslaughter8473 Yes very well put! Jeff G always seems to pull through with the biggest laugh in whatever sketch he's in.
I love how affirming Jeff goldblum is lol. I get the feeling that he would never make you feel weird or stupid if you hung out with him
+swish007 He will always be the weirdest guy of you two ;D
swish007 I feel like i could accidentally fart in front of him and he'd just do his classic jurassic park laugh and proceed to tell me a story about somethin related to farts ♡
I get the complete opposite. I think he'd talk shit about you being your back
You clearly never saw him in Jurassic Park.
Really? Really?
beautiful, it's the classic scale. theres nothing wrong with that
Sally Morn what does what mean
Sally Morn
really nigga.
Sally Morn
really nigga.
people are funny. life is funny.

It's genius. Perfect self-contempt in 2 seconds.
Every thing Jeff does, his voice, his face, his movements... everything is so perfect. Every moment he's on camera is packed full of these little surprises! He's magic. Must be.
"Really?... Really?"
The way Fred stumbles over his words is an art form in itself.
Nothing, absolutely nothing, could give me more joy than to find out that Jeff Goldblum actually ran a doily shop.
This is a fairly bland comment, but I feel bad that no one has left a reply, so here I am.

This is a fairly bland comment, but I feel bad that no one has left a reply, so here I am.

I love how Jeff's voice dives down.

Goldblum's high pitched "really?"... Lost it 🤣
Jeff Goldblum is a national treasure
+Brandon Bader National Treasure is a national treasure!
+351cleavland No it's not.
John G. Schmidt Yeah, it is. it says so in the title!!! : D
+Brandon Bader Jeff Goldblum is my co-pilot.

Never paid this show any attention until it started popping up in my TH-cam homepage. These skits are fantastic.
My adult kids show me Portlandia few years ago! I can say I am almost addicted now! Pure brilliance.
Goldblum is a literal comedic genius - his noises, the way he intentionally stutters to build anticipation, the way he says half his lines as if he thinks he might burp mid sentence…I could watch this man for hours on end. Hilarious! Oh and Fred and his wife are great too
(The last sentence is a joke I know they’re not married. They are also hilarious though)
Looks like they were cracking up during the whole glasses off/glasses on thing and could barely hold it together for one take.
I love that I typed "It's the classic scale" in the search area and TH-cam knew exactly what scene I wanted to see. I'm happy to see so many others that appreciate the classic scale in the comments.

its sickening how good goldblums delivery is..a true master
Sometimes I wonder how much of this is improvised
+lindsey paulson i gotta imagine quite a bit. ive seen quite a few interviews with goldblum where he says "theres nothing wrong with that" like he does in this sketch

I always thought the part wear fred and goldblum are removing and replacing their glasses was improv. You can see goldblum crack the faintest smile😂
The glasses thing def was...goldblum was gonna laugh for a second there...
The whole thing
The improvisation is AWESOME 💯💯💯
I love Fred's face during the whole "We'll take one" part and that little smile. It's so freaking funny to me.
I have watched this episode more times than any other. It shows the full range of Peter and Nance. Jeff just blends in perfectly like always.
haha Jeff's face when Fred starts singing is funny he's so fascinated
Mad respect to the set designer that currated that massive amount of classic crochet doilies for the show!
"It's the classic scale, there's nothing wrong with that"
Jeff is so great. His look of annoyance at his own sales pitch is brilliant.
I used to go to the doily store with my grandmother. They were always busiest at holiday season. Of course that was before Walmart and Amazon cornered the doily market...
Don´t know why but I absolutely love this sketch!😂 How can I have missed this show!?
They're holding back so much laughter while rubbing their eyes.. I hope Goldblum is in this new season.
He should really be in every season from here on out, each time running a different shop. It's perfection!
the look of disgust at 1:24 is perfect
W-w-what what WWWhat-...............what're your summer hours?
/(o).(o)/

It's jimmy glick
Gotta say, I don't usually find portlandia skits too funny, but this is just the right kind of bizzare
Beautiful. That’s the classic scale. Nothing wrong with that.
This is one of my favorite Portlandia bits of all time
I love the doily on the shirt pocket and the bit with the glasses was hilarious! The whole thing is great! 😄❤️
The glasses scene made them almost break character, you can see them both hiding a smirk, I love It!
That was great ,they could barely hold it in😂
Imagine leaving with two big bags of nothing but doilies and he asks about summer hours as if they will need to run in to buy more.
Portlandia is an onslaught of first-rate throwaway lines.
I really want to know how much they cost!!!! 🤪
Jeff Goldblum's reactions and looks are fucking gold lmaoo
Really? Really?
that exasperated expression at 1:23 haha
There's just so much to love about this skit
To me this is the funniest 3 minutes of television ive ever seen
I love how Jeff Goldblum’s character has a doily as a pocket square.
omg, when she's rubbing his shoulder during the "classic scales" . pure genius 2:23
There's something about Peter and Nance clearly just living by themselves in that huge-ass house that's fucking hilarious
I just f**king love this entire series. The skits for stores, entities and events for very specific tastes and minutiae (Doily Shoppe, Women and Women First, Allergy Pride, etc) are rife with comedic genius, as is the entire show.
wow that eye rubbing is contagious
the glasses bit gets me every time 😂😂😂
"You were so loud, boy he's got a great set of pipes. What did you say?" ... "Do you sing?"
Bloody hell that was funny. The glasses bit, the scale - gold
I'm pretty sure Jeff Goldblum's career was always just leading up to this point
Every Jeff Golblum facial expression in this is perfect.
I have no idea how many times I’ve watched this.
This show is so perfect
Im ashamed to say I've seen this sketch 100 times and I just noticed the half doily below the pocket on his shirt. Brilliant.
Carrie's always on the verge of losing it when Jeff Goldblum is in the scene.
1:04 fred trying not to laugh at goldblum's yawn-talking?
Good eye, yep! 😅
It's amazing that's a real thing, what I'm yawning in mid-sentence here?!?
I thought it was talking through a belch like older men are want to do.
"Grape Fruit Juice!" "Oh you were so loud..." ROTFL
"Do you sing ?" 😂
Love this show !
“Ok one please “
“It’s the classic scale, there’s nothing wrong with that “
“Boy he’s got a great set of pipes”
“Really? Reaaaallly?”
This skit is packed with the funniest one liners 😂😂😂😂
Love the doily pocket square. 😂
I'm wearing my glasses. When they kept taking theirs off I did to without thinking about it lol.
Jeff and Fred cracking each other up with the glasses thing makes my heart glow.
The classic scale. Nothing wrong with that. Hilarious, even more so that old Jeff is a hell of a piano player.
Singing the scale always gets me
Jeff's face at 1:24 gets me every time
LOL, the classic scale!
The improvisation is fantastic.
Jeff Goldblum is hilarious! Search for 'Portlandia pull out king'. Classic!
The whole glasses skit got me rolling. The fact that Jeff (or Cheff for all you Tim and Eric fans..) Tosses the glasses down too was exceptionally priceless. As one gets older or care free? That's one of the many thing - as important and dear those glasses Are - you get careless with lol. Plus! I have a doily curtain that Constantly gets snagged on it's curtain rod. Extremely infuriating! :)
1:03 “how many you need, and what you needs”
I can't with the voice inflections at 1:03, every fucking time lol.........and then the Really?...Really? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s so freakin funny , I quote it all the time whenever I say “really?” to someone 😂😂
Jeff Goldblum + Portlandia = genius
The coolest guy in Hollywood. I love how he and Fred riff off each other with the glasses bit and ample use of Hanna-Barbera sound effects.
Wouldn't it be funnier without the sound effects?
1:24 He's so unimpressed with himself.
Too funny! "It's the classic scale" :)
The fluted edges on the 32' Westerford are what gives it its character.
Perfect choice for a doily salesman! I feel he was born to play that part..
the look at 1:20 is my favorite thing in the whole series
Zooop! Vwheeew! Zoooop! Zaerrrr! Zoooop! *Pluck*
ahhh the glasses shit gets me every time!

It all culminates at 1:23 and the expression he lets slip, showing he knows his own BS. That's how I see it anyhow.
If you told me this entire sketch was unscripted I would believe it
what the heck did I stumble upon?!?! This is great....what IS this show? I mean I'll watch anything Jeff Goldblum's in
Kristi B he's only in it about three times in different episodes. The show is called Portlandia
Fred locks up at 2:43!
1:16-1:27 has always been one of my favorite bits in all TV & Film
hit 4 for "really?" :)
"it's the classic scale" 😆👌
I love how goldblum gets sick of his own bullshit at 1:25 hahaha
My goal for 2020 is to bring out my inner Goldblum and be this charming and warm to everyone - including my enemies.
Jeff Goldblum burping mid sentence might be one of the funniest things I have ever witnessed
Put goldblum on the goddamned dollar bill. In every country.
