"What's great about Steve is he never lets a script get in the way of the performance he's decided on in advance" is such a devastatingly amazing burn. Marty rocks!

[jamescollinson]

"The Governor's Awards are considered the highest honor an actor can receive in mid-November."
Best line of the night, such a subtle yet devastating put-down.

I’m also speaking from the teleprompter.”

Martin Short managed to make me laugh and cry in the same speech. His comments at the end were as sweet as it gets

Martin Short teaching a Master Class on Comedy Timing, this man is incredible !!! And then in the last minute of his disertation he acknowledges how Steve was there for Martin and his children when he lost his wife Nancy to cancer in 2010.

Martin understood all of the jokes...he was the only one who mattered

This is a textbook example of how to do a roast! Brilliant.

[freddiemercury]

"when i think of Steve, and it's not often" lmao. he is soooo funny

[AllenMQuinn]

The rest of the audience were super lame, but Steve Martin was laughing and enjoying every second and that's what matters most.

My two comedic heroes. I adore both of these amazing men.

Martin Short made me laugh hard and made me cry all within 8 minutes.

Ever since I saw The Three Amigos, I have loved Martin Short- he is as quick and smart as a whip. Possibly the best blend of Hollywood insider, positivity, sarcasm, and dry wit. A real professional- his preparation and presentation is faultless. He makes it look easy but smoothness and lines like that are genius.

We Canadians love Martin Short. Wonderful and genuine comic❤❤

[kdub]

Steve Martin was loving every minute of this. What a great sport.

[joyleenpoortier]

Every now an then we get a comedy duo that creates a bond that last through time.

Clearly the audience takes itself too seriously... Martin Short is a legend.
