"So you lie on top of her with that body." - Jerry The crew member exploding in the background right as he gets to the end of that sentence is priceless. Those who missed out on this show missed out on possibly the funniest show ever. Glick was such a genius character and it took the consummate skills of Martin Short to pull it off. Literally everything about this show was absolute genius.
The fact that he managed to not break character after Jerry said that is incredible. It almost seems like he covers his face as he scractches his nose to compose himself, it's a split second. You can tell the joke caught Martin off guard but he handled it like the legend he is.
@@DerlisAGonzalez Martin ascended to the stratosphere with Jiminy Glick. Zack Gallifinakis did well with Between Two Ferns but it's just a direct lift of Glick which is fine because we need comedy but if you think you can out-Glick Martin Short you are terribly mistaken. Yeah, I was glued to the TV every time Primetime Glick came on.
Martin Short is one of the greatest all time comedians. He hit it out of the park when he came up with Jiminy Click. Funniest alter ego character in comedy.
I heard Jon Stewart say that George Carlin and Jerry Seinfeld were by far the best prepared comedians he'd ever seen. You can see that JS prepared for this and was ready to give as good as he got, or better.
Seinfeld couldn't stand for Short to get in zingers at his expense, and chose to go onto the offensive. He was funny - but it was über snarky Jerry. The interviews I enjoy the most are those who allow Short some room to maneuver on his own and then let him lead (Dreyfus, Mullally, Lovitz, Levy, O'Hara, etc.). Seinfeld is nobody's second fiddle. Ever.
Seinfeld just did what he said in the Seinfeld episode when he had a personal revelation, "make fairly obvious" observations. None of his attempted insults were clever, just seemed like he wanted to be noticed by speaking. His interview with Julia Louis-Dreyfus was much better as she plays along.
Glick: “and how have you kept the weight down?” Jerry: “I keep it down because I’ve been successful at what I wanted to do…” Glick: “Oh and what was that?” Absolutely genius improv burn
Jerry Seinfeld speaking extemporaneously is not an interesting person, he's not funny, he's arrogant and thinks he embodies the funniness that is actually Larry David's writing. In J-dominated Hollywood they are kings and it shows in their self absorption. Larry David, in a world that is right, would never have been put in front of a camera. He's awful.
I wonder if Seinfeld was totally adlibbing. I get the sense he had some lines ready. Short, on the other hand, was totally on the spot. Nevertheless, a sharp duel of wits.
Omg!! Me too! When these were a thing, I didn’t get it, never got into it. Now at 43, I can’t breathe from laughing. And I only looked them up because I subscribe to Al Franken’s podcast and he interviewed Martin Short one day, and they talked about Jimjny interviewing Mel Brooks and asking him what’s his problem with Nazis and I just had to see it 🤣🤣🤣. Now I am addicted!
Usually it doesn't work when the guest tries to upstage or even keep pace with Martin Short, but I think Seinfeld played it very well - better than anyone I've seen trying to keep up with this genius character.
This is definitely Glick's funniest episode. The wit from both is so fast and cutting. I imagine Jerry's insecurities for being made fun of made sure he prepared.
@@organboi Oh yes, you’re spot on, this was SO unnecessary. How much better would it have been if one of the funniest and most successful comedians of all time had just sat there and let Jiminy insult him over and over, without firing back, instead replying “That’s right Jiminy” over and over. I would so much rather watch THAT, than ad-libbed, so-called comedic insults, from a man known for them. Gee @organboi, you really know a lot about comedy, thanks so much for your insight. I’m sure the thousands who found this segment funny will be re-thinking their opinion, as have I.
Seinfeld has the ability to be brutally condescending with just a humorous look. Still, Martin will always have the edge, because he is more dynamic. Jerry will always be Jerry, and he is absolutely superb at it. One ruled TV, the other ruled the Movies. They totally respect each other. Pure entertainment. Side note: I bet both always had the brutal upper hand in controlling unruly audiences during their standup days.
There's a moment right at the 3:25 mark, when you can see that Martin Short wants to laugh. It's right after Jerry tells him "so you lye on top of her with this body." And Short has to regroup himself. It's very subtle, but man is it funny! This is great comedy.
Out of all the guests… Seinfeld has been the only one to really give it to Jiminy and actually upstage him in an intelligent and funny way. Love both comedians tremendously.
jerry hammered him to start, gave him the middle, killed him on the back end. very funny because most people just laugh and get mad. Martin Short has to do all the heavy lifting, in this one Seinfeld and him were playing a game of word insult catch, back and forth.
He has always had a sensitive ego. That's part of the reason he attempts to present as "having it together" and even acting superior with some interviewers (e.g., Larry King). I've always sensed that Jerry secretly feels inadequate.
Two true comedic legends at work..Nobody will ever know how their minds work..I hope that there are more young comedians like them in the works that think outside the box & Jackie Gleason The Great ONE! 20 YEARS ahead of his time....Jiminy in fat suit for Oscar host 2017....I watched 3 times and will watch again ...Funnier Every time
@@BeeRich33 Agreed. Over 80% of Jerry's entire repertoire, punch lines included are thoughts that whizzed through my own head but didn't share because I deemed them unfunny. Like his Library Friend/Police or feeling sorry for the Olympian who just finished second by a fraction of a second. These are only funny to people who have no inner dialogue inside their own heads. Which is scary to wonder wtf _does_ go on inside there...?
1:11 In college and you so you did finish, see so I lost that bet, one night we got together and watched your special, you kept on "why do people", ahhh, I can't remember anything else, but it was, the phrasing was very unique, and some people say "boy, he;s so bland and there;s a nothingness there", but I don't feel that, I feel that there is a wisdom to you, just because the eyes are so dull doesn't mean there isn't a machinery of wheels clicking away.... Pure genius.
Martin's intention is to get his guest to react or snap.. like Jimmy Fallon did.. yet Jerry turned it around on him and got him to react, and nearly break character! Love how Jerry cut him back soo good..!!
Jerry fared a lot better than the other guests. Usually when they come out swinging they fall twice as hard, but Jerry prepared more material for this interview then he did for most of his comedy sets.
Jerry try his best to get some low blows in early, knowing deep down that he's surely inviting the pain. Short dismembers him with back to back to back blows.
the confidence and the easiness of his impro his jaw dropping ! I think that i've never seen a makeup hide a face that much, even knowing who he his i still can't recognize hm !
Folks: It's a put-on interview, if you've never seen one before. Jerry and Martin are doing what they agreed on in advance in this satire of talk shows. Neither one is an asshole and both are very funny.
It's great that these two comedy masters can do this in character ... Although we don't know how many retakes it took if one of them burst out laughing. The crew obviously has a difficult time not busting up. The edge definitely goes to Martin, but then he's perfected this act and Jerry is a guest so it makes sense he's funnier.
I think you have to give it to Seinfeld on points. After all, Jimney knew where he wanted to go with the interview, had planned his questions. JS was doing all his stuff off the cuff. But it was a great balance between the two. One of the better Glick interviews. Whatever happened to him?

Seinfeld is known to prepare meticulously and this was no different. He knew what was coming and was ready for it. That's why he's so successful.
I wouldn't call Jerry's insults "intelligent" - not by a long shot. More like lowbrow, prosaic and whiny - exactly like his shit show.
I suspect Short was letting him go on, because the real long con in this game is letting Seinfeld show what a douche Seinfeld really is...
I wish Jiminy would come back.
Celebrities these days have never been thru a ringer like an interview by Jiminy.
He did a Bill Hader interview recently.
Zak Galifianakis does a similar shtick.
Thing about Jerry I've noticed: he can dish it out, but he can't take it.
Fragile ego. He comes across like a pompous jerk who can't take some jokes at his enormous success.
He has always had a sensitive ego. That's part of the reason he attempts to present as "having it together" and even acting superior with some interviewers (e.g., Larry King).
I've always sensed that Jerry secretly feels inadequate.
U can really tell Jerry was having fun ...love martin short
When he names his kids it cracks me up
This was potted shtick of the Jiminy character. The fact Seinfeld knew of that and passed the ball to him is the Hallmark of good improv.
There was mention of Cesar Romero, and two of Jiminy's sons are named after the best guy to play Joker.
