I remember Martin Short, on an appearance with Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb, they asked him (without knowing) how his wife was, what a lovely lady she was, etc etc, the normal platitudes, etc etc. What they didn't know, was that she had passed away, more than a little while ago. Martin, in a true gesture of absolute class and dignity, took it all in stride, he never got offended, he didn't even correct them on their social blunder. It was quickly brought forward, and they were naturally horrified and embarrassed, and rightly wanted to apologize to Martin, but, again, he handled it all so well. He exemplified how a true gentleman conducts himself. I will never forget that lesson. Thank you, Martin Short!

He loved his wife so much. RIP Nancy 💞

A little history for people watching this now, this episode of Conan aired in 2005 and Martin's wife sadly passed away in however is still a living legend in

Martin Short and Conan literally help curb my depression for a bit....a bit....thank you

[fdrstan]

Martin is one of the funniest people to ever live. ALWAYS on point, ALWAYS delivers.

[guntertorfs]

He steals the show with his talent, but always leaves place for others to have their moment too. A class act.

[CatskillsGrrl]

Hearing him talk about Nancy is breaking my heart, but hey … he was lucky to have found the love of his life.

[jasonsgroovemachine]

Martin is one of the most joyous by default people I've ever seen.

I saw Martin Short and Steve Martin in show together. Absolutely fabulous. It was called An Evening you will forget. I didn't understand why they didn't call it Martin and Martin. The best bit was Steve using Martin as a dummy in a ventriloquist act.

[connormasterson]

My favourite part of the interview is how visibly upset Marty gets when applause for his 25 yr marriage steps on the rhythm of his next line

[skiLLphrAIM]

[tarnopol]

“I can do an ironic crow.” Funny fucking guy.

[adamdesanti]

When Marty goes "mmmmyy he does it in the same spirit as Jiminy Glick when he goes from high squeeky to super low gravelly and sensual "25 years of LOVING ahhhh".

[goober]

This is the nicest Marty has treated Conan publicly; they must of just become friends lol
