Key & Peele's "Telemarketer" sketch sees the title character employ some devious reverse psychology to make a sale. After both comedians shared a stint on Mad TV, they broke through in a major way thanks to their self-titled sketch series Key & Peele. Many of the skits on the show went viral and a typical episode featured at least one fantastic sketch. They had a talent for taking a concept with a solid comic hook and escalating them to insane levels.

Key & Peele came to an end in 2015 after five seasons, with Keegan-Michael Key moving on to movies like The Predator or Playing With Fire. Jordan Peele left acting behind to focus on directing, with his 2017 Blumhouse horror Get Out becoming a huge, groundbreaking success. He soon followed up with doppelganger chiller Us which also scored big at the box-office in 2019. It appears Peele will be sticking with the genre for the foreseeable future, as he's producing Nia DaCosta's upcoming Candyman legacy sequel and hosting and producing The Twilight Zone reboot.

Key & Peele's "Telemarketer" sketch again displays how the show can take a simple idea and twist it in a fresh way. This skit opens with Key's character making dinner when he's interrupted by a call from Peele's telemarketer from "Master Travel," offering a generous Las Vegas package. Key politely states he's not interested when the telemarketer abruptly hangs up on him.

A bit irked by this response, Key's customer calls back to ask the telemarketer why it was cut off, only for it to happen again. Key & Peele's "Telemarketer" sketch gradually ramps up the pressure, with Peele's offscreen telemarketer relentlessly squeezing a stress toy as Key's character gets angrier and angrier at being so dismissed. He then demands the Vegas package, cursing furiously down the phone as he reveals his credit card details.

When their business is concluded, Peele's telemarketer thanks Key's customer for his business - and hangs up again. The end of Key & Peele's "Telemarketer" finally shows Peele's face as he turns to a co-worker and praises their new sales scripts; his colleague is then seen insulting a caller while he nods in agreement. With telemarketers no doubt being used to people hanging up on them in the bluntest way imaginable, this sketch is a witty inversion that's anchored by Key's ever-increasing fury with the telemarketer's rudeness. The final twist is just a delicious capper.
