The Martin Short Show(1994)

The Martin Short Show is a short-lived variety series starring the former Saturday Night Live regular as an ambitious talk-show host. The program struggled to find its footing, lasting only three episodes before cancellation. The show's brief run became something of a cultural footnote, even inspiring a self-aware SNL parody titled "The Show Formerly Known as the Martin Short Show." Despite Short's proven comedic talents from his years on the sketch comedy stage, the variety format failed to connect with audiences during its original run.
