Steve Martin and Martin Short: An Evening You Will Forget for the Rest of Your Life

Such a lovable and joyous set. There is an abundance of hilarious skits and jokes (admittedly Martin Short kinda steals the show), but unfortunately there are plenty of jokes that miss the mark as well. All in all it's not the funniest comedy set I've seen, but it's probably the most wholesome (it sorta reminded me of Jerry Before Seinfeld in this regard). It's not for everybody, but if you think the title is funny, then I'd say you'll probably enjoy the show.

I grew up watching these two in the movies and on TV and to see them again on stage it made my day!! Very funny stuff!! If your a fan like me you will definitely enjoy this!!! I have NO idea why some people rate this bad but Fake news is everywhere these days!

U follow?

I wasn't sure what to expect, and quickly realized how baseless was my hesitation. These are two veteran titans of stage entertainment, who showed how it's really done. That is, not to knock other comedians, but these guys effortlessly generated laughs without rrsorting to cussing, pornographic or otherwise highly lewd commentary. It was very refreshing in that sense, and yet still had edge and challenge. IMO they really lived up to their legendary status.

This special was great! It was exactly what I'd hoped for and more. The fact that Martin and Short were at the height of their careers in the 1970s and '80s doesn't mean that they've suddenly become unfunny. My only critique is that it wasn't a bit longer.

Every bad review here is ridiculous. People upset over jokes are people that should skip comedy shows. Others who thought this was somehow self-congratulatory of the team is taking everything literally. What you saw is called satire; look into it. And finally my very favorite reviewer who felt "insulted" because there may have been jokes or lines that weren't politically correct. And then, to take time out of his precious little free time, (wait, I'm weeping!) to write a review because he was just so angry, as if Martin and Short had personally insulted him.

Again, the special is great! And boy, do I miss the IMDb message boards sometimes....

Steve Martin and Martin Short have been two of the most notable comedians of the past few decades, so it only makes sense that they would perform together. "Steve Martin and Martin Short: An Evening You Will Forget for the Rest of Your Life" features their concert in Greenville, South Carolina. One fine performance. My favorite parts were the photos from their younger days, Martin playing the banjo, and Short in the costume (whether you use their first names or last names, it still sounds like one of their names).

I liked the movie, and I hope that these guys continue performing for as long as they can.
