Tensions with Martin Short and Steve Martin

[@MsKakaface]

I love the way he says "baby." Gets me every time.

[@daniellew3260]

Lol or "sangwich"

Ew

S R he’s doing a great Liz Taylor impersonation

[@SabrinaMartinez]

I'll be saying that for the rest of this year.

[@marthahanley6650]

*Martin Short* is hands-down one of the most *under-rated* comedians of all time! His Jiminy Glick interviews are *classic*. Plus, poor Jimmy! Part of his youthful endearment on SNL was trying not to "break character". Peace.

[@85nikki96]

+Martha Hanley Harvey Korman on carol Burnett always broke down and they loved it.

[@paulaford3303]

+Martha Hanley Yes Martin Short is a comical genius!!!!! I just love him so much.

[@paulaford3303]

+85nikki96 Love Harvey Korman. One of the funniest guys ever.

[@TheStockwell]

+Martha Hanley Martin Short is underrated? Since when? It's not like he's an unknown, broke, or washed-up performer, desperately trying to fight off dying in obscurity. You might as well call Springsteen an underrated musician more people should know about. I think you have him confused with Tom Green or Andrew Dice Clay - and maybe Carrot Top. :)

[@cherylynl.tompkins7049]

+TheStockwell Thank you for that comment!! So many of us know Martin Short as the comical genius that he is and fully appreciate him. He's done so much for decades and is someone who always adds so much more to any scene or comic bit he's involved in.

[@farhanj123]

when Steve Martin and Martin short throw water in your face....you should be honored

[@LevitatorMusic]

I read the word "honored" in steve martin's voice from the pink panther...which includes the "H" sound lol

I swear to God, Martin Short is playing Liz Taylor in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf. The way he says, "Baby!"

[@mizzchuz.6413]

Yes!!

[@ninotchka13]

Also a touch of Katherine Hepburn 😊

[@inarimpau-tw1yh]

It’s like I was watching Elizabeth herself

I thought Liz Taylor also.😊😊

Martin Short is imitating Elizabeth Taylor in Virginia Woolf. His tone of voice and delivery including baby is Elizabeth Taylor as Martha. I love it baby!

[@wickedfirefly13]

Can't get enough Martin Short... LOVE HIM! This is such a great skit. Jimmy is a riot too, they're awesome in this. Do more!

[@randomyoutubeperson6954]

Yes! Please do more!

[@irvingklaw57]

I love Martin's backless gown, its so sexy.

[@jenniferirwin82]

Martin, got his Elizabeth Taylor on point. Lol 😂 And how he emphasized the whole scene. Comedy Gold!!! Lol 😂

[@matthewbissell7887]

Disappointed they didn't title this a "Steve Martin Martin Short Short"

[@amylynnhunt55]

I like that! A short from Short! :0) That reminds me of his "better to have loved a Short than never to have loved a'tall"

[@annebradley6086]

Brilliant! 😂✌

[@marinakaye8284]

Martin really does a great Liz Taylor!!!!

[@jeffeastwood15]

Liz Taylor by way of Bette Davis.

[@gordonsmom3861]

I think he sounded more like Katherine Hepburn. He tells a funny story about meeting her. Regardless, Martin Short is brilliant!

[@keithshaw219]

I just said this without seeing your comment. Dead on. Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf

[@edwardvogel9094]

It's the hair.

[@keithshaw219]

You have to watch Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf to appreciate how close this is to Taylor as Martha. Hepburn has a deeper vibrato. The voice he is doing is high pitched... hilarious. Plus the use of the word Baby! Right baby!!

[@PeaceFan1]

" You're a LIAR ..ehehhehhhhmmmm ".... LMAO

[@MaximumDiver]

Steve Martin & Martin Short the greatest comedians of all time :)

[@skywriter9532]

I think Steve Martin stopped aging at like 62.

[@BayviewFinch]

+Crimson Gamer More like he started aging at like 22.

[@TheMoonchild1969]

Sure he did he looks just the same from Three Amigo, Martin Short in the other hand has aged terribly and I think he's younger than Steve, nevertheless Martin surely retained his comic edge.

[@BayviewFinch]

TheMoonchild1969 But Steve Martin started out looking old, whereas Martin Short actually aged somewhat normally. Steve Martin had old-man white hair like decades ago.

[@steveconn]

+Crimson Gamer And he stopped being funny around 1990.

[@jeremypodolske475]

You do realize it's faked right?

[@ipad.unknown]

YES! I was thinking the same damn thing! I know she burnt her fingers. See how wide the flame was.

+Jostrich It was one of their fake arms.

[@gigirauchut1882]

I thought so too

[@mudkittens]

+85nikki96 Lol you made me look twice, but I don't think so. You can kind of see her tendons move, so pretty sure it's not fake

[@tydish]

I thought this also. You can see her move her hand up lightning quick after she finishes. Probably rushed over to sink to soak in cold water.

[@ryancapper455]

The 90s wasn’t ready for TV shows with the cinematic edge and nuanced adult themes found in a show like Tensions. Qualities like these were usually reserved for big budget movies of the time.

[@TheMuppetKid]
