Summary: His Best Since SCTV
Review: Martin Short in a disgusting fat suit as a talk show host with no clue who his celebrity guests are let alone what he's talking about.

Could it get any better?

yes, it could, and therefore 4 stars. Why a Best Of? Why not the whole Comedy Central first season? And second season? The show is in it's third season, and I'd buy all three.

The show is incredible funny. Glick is a ..., and Short plays several hilarious characters that reoccur. As Glick, he carries on conversations that go off into tangents, as well as insulting REAL celebrity guests (Levy, Conan O'Brian, Steve Martin etc...) VERY reminiscent of SCTV.

And you HAVE to see Glick dry ... Kathy Lee Gifford! HILARIOUS!

The series is THAT good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Review Haiku by Todd Marrone
Review: Martin Short matches
wits with comedy legends
with a fat suite on.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Comedy Fun
Review: Martin Short's character Jiminy Glick of Primetime Glick can become rather addicting. Martin Short's spoof of talk show hosts is genuinely unique. This DVD will give any one needing a "Glick fix" the full treatment. I look forward to an all new seaon of Primetime Glick on Comedy Central.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pleaase, please, please: More Glick!
Review: This is a great release but we really deserve to have the whole series on DVD! I would have chosen a few different interviews but I'm not complaining very loudly.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I want MORE!!!!
Review: This is fine as an introduction but I want all the other shows as well. I've never been a real Martin Short "fan" but with Glick I got religion.

If you don't "Get" it, try it when you're in a different mood. I didn't think it was so much funny as much as I found it silly. But you need to give it your full attention and be in a fine mood and you realize the genius behind Glick.

Two small complaints: 1. More Jan Hooks as Dixie 2. We need scene selection on the DVD. Each show is an entire track.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Great Great Martin Short !
Review: Those SCTV fanatics finally got something to cheer about when Martin Short was given this incredible show. He brought back the tradition of that crazy show. Moreover, he brought back the members of it. Levy, Thomas and Flaherty all appeared on season one of Glick. This show is just so intelligent, so many little subplots with Adrian VanVoorhees, Dixie, Mason, Morgan, Matthew and Modine. I have never laughed harder at a show. I cannot get enough of Jiminy and his pathetic nature. Sadly, this DVD is rather brief. It is a best of and not a collection of the whole season. However, the deleted scene with Julia Louise Dryfuss is INCREDIBLE! Here is hoping that Comedy Central will bring this show back and release an entire first season DVD. Great great stuff.
