Vanessa Bayer Makes Surprise Appearance on ‘Everybody’s Live with John Mulaney’ as Netflix’s AI Assistant

by

Actress Vanessa Bayer, formerly known from “Saturday Night Live,” unexpectedly joined the latest installment of “Everybody’s Live with John Mulaney.” She portrayed a novel AI assistant, introduced by Netflix.

During a brief pause in an interview that included Ben Stiller, Quinta Brunson, and Nick Kroll, it was humorously announced that Bayer had been secretly hired as Netflix’s latest artificial intelligence assistant.

Hello there! I’m Jerica, your Netflix AI assistant, and here I am with some insights about your recent viewing history. Over the past ten days, it seems you’ve watched: a less-than-impressive stand-up special, a good one, another that didn’t quite hit the mark, and one that was, well, not so great. Additionally, you’ve been engrossed in various series featuring characters such as a melancholic woman, a petite lady, a woman who loves horses, and a woman centered around dining experiences. We’re delighted to see you appreciating the wide range of content we offer!”

(This version aims to maintain the original’s informal tone while providing a more polite and less harsh delivery.)

Afterward, Jerica offered a few recommendations for their next show selection, taking into account the intricate patterns of their viewing history.

Bayer playfully suggested that you might find an eight-part documentary intriguing, featuring a person who collects Furbies and has a hidden sexual orientation. Alternatively, you might be drawn to a food show, or a real estate show featuring small-statured, bald twins. If these appeal, you’re likely to enjoy movies with big names in less-than-stellar roles, or smaller stars in Christmas productions. And if you appreciate these, you’ll surely adore an expensive show that Barack Obama is executive producing, as well as a Joe Torre event at the Kennedy Center.

As a film enthusiast, I’d casually ask, “Hey Jerica, is there any movie or series that’s got a Southern backdrop yet carries an undercurrent of Korean culture?” That’s about as simple as it gets!

During the event, I didn’t shy away from taking a playful jab at Netflix, the streaming giant. Earlier in the evening, as my show graced their coveted top 10 rankings, I seized the moment and delivered a well-timed jest, poking fun at this entertainment titan.

Our program is on par with shows like ‘Welcome to the Family,’ a Latino culture-clash sitcom, a true crime documentary about Gabby Petito, a Tyler Perry soap opera, and ‘Temptation Island.’ According to Netflix viewers, they’ll watch anything we put out.
