Judd Apatow's Cosby Impression Is Horrifyingly Accurate. Emphasis On Horrifying.

Whoa. Judd Apatow is not fucking around.

I mean, clearly he is because he did two minutes and forty seconds of a pretty terrible set about how unattractive he is compared to his beautiful wife and daughters, some standard lines about how Jewish looking he is, and about wanting his beautiful daughter to date the nerdy guys. It’s not good. (He’s also later sandwiched between Fallon and Adam Sandler leading to what can only be described as a sliding scale of how far charm can get you with relatively little talent. Sorry, Fallon.)

But his Cosby joke, man. That is for real. (Just skip straight to 2:43.)

Really, Judd Apatow? How exactly did you clear that with The Tonight Show’s producers? “Oh, sure, two minutes about how I look like a troll, a Cosby impression, an incredibly accurate yet depressing take-down of rape culture and how women become entrenched in the lives of their abusive husbands, and then we play a quick game of Uno Ovum? Is that it?”

None of which I hope dissuades you from your continued crusade against Cosby. I don’t care what others might say about it, Judd. Never, ever stop calling Cosby a monster. As long as he’s not in jail, as long as some people are defending him, as long as he’s still selling tickets to his shows, and as long as you stay funny, it is an absolute delight to hear you destroy what little is left of his reputation.
