Jiminy Glick Interviews Bill Hader

As grateful as Martin Short is to be hosting the show, he has a dermatologist appointment he just can’t move this week so he asked his best friend/Hollywood's top entertainment reporter, Jiminy Glick, to be HIS guest host on Thursday night. Jiminy’s been doing some warm-up interviews to get ready, including this one with Emmy-winner Bill Hader.

That was an underrated joke, I be Bill talks about this later when asked about this skit!

I busted out laughing w that line! & many others!😂😂😂😂

[@alim.587]

My mind has been blown since that moment. Lol. So random, yet so thought provoking!

[@antilocust]

Raanan Hershberg put out a comedy special called Brave just last week with this joke in it… makes you wonder if some staff writers got sticky fingers. Either way, Short is a genius.

[@Over.It.999]

A true pro.
