Do me! Show me!


Do me! Show me!

Martin Short is a genius. Let's make sure that's well understood. If you've never seen SCTV then shame on you. Being "too young" is no excuse either in this age of Youtube. And to prove my point here are two examples of Short at his best, doing a killer Jerry Lewis impression. The clip above is a commercial for Martin Scorcese's Jerry Lewis on the Champs Elysees. It's funny even if you don't know who Jerry Lewis is.

The clip below is a riff on Ingmar Bergman, again starring Short as Lewis. This stuff is gold. You're welcome.
