The premise
Here’s the bit.
A solemn advertisement promotes a special anniversary DVD of Roots, complete with cast interviews, commentary and supposedly unseen outtakes. A baby-naming ceremony goes wrong, and a whipping scene turns into a dispute between performers. Historical drama gives way to prop mishaps, a padded back and an unexpectedly cheerful chase.

I told y'all not to give me a real baby.
