Martin Short

You know what Vees and I watched the other night? Although, s- speaking of Genevieve, it was not on any of our streaming services, and Genevieve really made a big deal about making me download it, and then I fell asleep halfway through it, but, uh, Innerspace with, um-

Oh my God, Martin Short and, and Dennis Quaid

...

Quaid, thank you for bailing me out there.

... of some sort, a pilot

...

he is shrunken down and then accidentally injected into the butt/body of Martin Short, who I believe is a grocery bagger, and is li- in every way that Dennis Quaid is like a cool alpha, uh, Martin Short's character is not.

And so, m- uh, Dennis Quaid, who's now in like a kind of a space capsule inside of Martin Short's body, has to figure out how to actually connect with the physical body that he is inhabiting as a tiny, teeny, tiny little speck.

...

Martin Short comes in and, and all of these things that the bride wants to add to-

Yeah

...

Because it's like that movie Inner Space.

You remember that movie Inner Space with Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan where Dennis Quaid was implanted in a body? So the only person who could hear Dennis Quaid was Martin Short.

That's what it would be.

It was this one-sided conversation we're having the whole time.

Martin.

And I was Martin Short.

Yeah, you're

Martin Short.

I had the biggest crush on Chevy Chase growing up.

Give me a handsome tan man who could make you laugh.

Oh, truth teller and soothsayer of the world.

Go tell me average comedian that was in a sitcom with Martin Short and Nathan Lane.

No, Nathan Lane was in the one with the guy from Saturday Night Live.

No, Martin Short and Bill Maher in the early 80s, late 70s were in a sitcom together.

Ooh.

Yes, and it did not do well.

But they take chances, they swing hard, and your jaw drops when you realize what that cast was.

And at one point starting out when Harold Ramis was in the cast and the head writer, and you're talking about John Candy and Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas and Andrea Martin and Catherine O'Hara and Martin Short and Joe Flaherty and anybody else that came through there that I missed or I failed to mention.

You're brilliant, brilliant, brilliant people.

Number eight, Monty Python's Flying Circus.

They're all on my list.

John Candy, Martin Short.

Yeah, they're great.

There's another

And there are some things that you will only see at a big film festival like this.

Last year, I saw, uh, a documentary about the famous production of Godspell that happened in Toronto that featured Martin Short, Eugene Levy, Victor Garber, Jane Eastwood, Gilda Radner, uh, and I know I'm-

Wow

... forgetting, uh, half the s- but e- everyone that was in this went on to become quite famous.

Okay, let's move on to lead actor for comedy series.

The nominees are Yaha Abdul-Mateen II for Wonder Man, Steve Carell for Rooster, Matthew Rhys for Widow's Bay, Jason Segel for Shrinking, and Martin Short for Only Murders in the Building.

So Karen...

What say you?
