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

Ignore the haters! People today don't understand tasteful, articulate, and classic humor. Martin and Short are hilarious, delivering their lines with ease and yet with a dab of spontaneity. Their comedy isn't too off color but has a bit of an edge surrounded with a family vibe. The music was great too! Watch and appreciate these legends.

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 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....

35 years on stage. I am 40 years old. These guys are my whole life. forget the 2000 births learned on the comedy disney channel. this show is gorgeous. It's like it's been around for 35 years.
