I loved Martin Short in "Clifford," and even admit to enjoying his antics on SNL as Ed Grimley and Jackie Roberts, Jr. This effort, however, was absolutely atrocious! I've never seen Short struggle so hard to force laughs out of as patently unfunny a character as this one. Glick is a self-deprecating obese talk show hosts who loves to gobble down doughnuts and knows nothing about the guests on his show. That's pretty much it, and Short is just not right for this role. He is very talented, but the Glick character is just too bland and one-note to be interesting. He's clumsy and gluttonous, and nothing more. Short certainly lacks the energy or colorful idiosyncrasies he gave his other characters. This is another prime example of a terrible Comedy Central show.The only short I ever found funny was "Tom Green in Afghanistan," and I probably only like that because I love Tom Green and always enjoy when other comedians try to impersonate him. That skit was shown about five minutes into the premiere episode. It all went downhill from there. Thank God Comedy Central canceled this god-awful show.

i mean i read some of your comments u think prime time glick is the funniest show on tv well what about insomniac with dave attell,the daily show,south park just to name a few i mean is martin short that funny??i remember ed grimley was funny but that was the only character that was funny to me he was funny in some movies to but this show is not funny its down right stupid who writes this crap why dont u ever see the real audience??? maybe they dont have one if martin short whats to make a series why doesnt he make one about a real funny character ed grimley i must say now thats funny

Primetime Glick is one of those shows that you look forward to all week. From Adrian's opening line "Am I the only one who needs a Glick fix?" the show never ceases to keep me in stitches.Martin Short is excellent at keeping the laughs coming a mile-a-minute. The wacky character of Jiminy never allows for the celebrity interviews to slow down or get dull, and the celebrities "play along" very well, although they often have to hold back from breaking into hysterics.One of my favorite parts of the show, which no one has mentioned so far is "Jiminy's home movies" where we see "home movies" from Jiminy's personal life, usually involving his relationship with Dixie, his alcoholic and clinically depressed wife.It's a brilliant show, from beginning to end, and I hope it lasts for many seasons.

Primetime Glick happens to be one of the funniest shows out there. It can't get funnier, than Martin Short dressed in a fat suit.Primetime Glick is a show where Jiminy Glick (short) interviews current celebrities.Definitely a show for anyone. One of comedy centrals funny shows.
