5. Loving The Hilarious Uranium Interviews
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bfsmbf33h0s In 2002 Serj and Daron were interviewed for the American television show Uranium which aired on Fuse TV. Throughout the interview Serj and Daron are playful and humorous (though admittedly pretty difficult) often answering the hosts questions completely sarcastically. Unfortunately for Uranium, the interviewer is unable to keep up with the guys' act, repeatedly uttering the phrase no, but seriously in a vain attempt to steer the show back on course. The result is a rather awkward series of questions from an interviewer clearly out of her depth. The scene was somewhat repeated in 2005 when the whole band appeared on the same show and were interviewed by the same person. Though its hard to imagine the mild-mannered Serj of today playing with an interviewer so harshly, its clearly meant in good humour, and may even have been salvageable if the interviewer had come across as slightly more knowledgeable and genuine.
