Watch Fred Armisen Perfectly Improvise Various New York Accents For Almost 5 Minutes

Saturday Night Live alumni and Portlandia star Fred Armisen recently performed a benefit for Doctors Without Borders at Irving Plaza. During his time on stage, the set took an improvisational tone as the comedian took audience suggestions and improvised different New York City accents for nearly five minutes. Given that I’ve never been to New York, this performance will really assist in my eventual navigation of the five boroughs. And according to the audience’s reaction, Armisen hits every accent he’s given on the proverbial head.
