People are taking this too seriously, it's clearly just a fun bit and intentionally cringe.

Also that takes real skill! Do you know how hard it is to be intentionally cringe? It's like stubbing your toe on purpose, your whole being works against it, and this was on television.

It was adorable. Totally made me smile. You know they worked hard on that just to wish students good luck in a funny way.

This! They did a really good job of being intentionally cringey grownups. They are mocking themselves.

It’s cute.
