Only Murders in the Building, thanks to Selena Gomez’s global fanbase as the array of A-listers that hop in for a cameo in every season has become all the rage in pop culture. Despite the glitz and glamor, it is the organic comedic duo of Steve Martin and Martin Short that has earned the show its most devoted audience. But before becoming the comic relief for Hulu’s top mystery drama, Steve Martin and Martin Short gave Netflix an unforgettable evening through An Evening You Will Forget For The Rest of Your Life.

Always protected by the blanket of a good script, Hollywood’s favorite comedic duo, Steve Martin and Martin Short, tested their luck as standup comics in 2018 with Netflix.

Back when Only Murders in the Building stars turned Netflix special hosts

Popular for their comedic performances throughout the 90s, both individual and collaborative, Steve Martin and Martin Short get the biggest slice from the impeccable comic timing pie chart. Through a dance to ‘My Little Buttercup’ in Three Amigos and an unparalleled run on SNL, the duo has their laughter recipe perfected. But despite their years in comedy, Steve Martin and Martin Short only hosted their own comedy special in 2018 with Netflix ironically titled, An Evening You Will Forget For The Rest of Your Life.

The more than an hour-long special is a breath of fresh air from the monotonous array of comedians who almost narrate their specials. Martin Short and Steve Martin brought the magic of Hollywood’s timeless slapstick comedies on stage as they added impromptu musicals and roast sessions in between.

What the youth is only now recognizing as the comedic duo from Only Murders in the Building massaged their best funny bones for Netflix.

An Evening You Will Forget for the Rest of Your Life was not forgotten by award shows

With the number of times, the duo has worked together and given blockbuster hits; they are very close to becoming the official definition of magic makers. This is why, even without the protection of a script, Steve Martin and Martin Short did a spectacular job of bringing out a roar of laughter from everyone in the room.

In fact, it was loud enough for the Emmy Awards and the Directors Guild of America awards to jump into action and nominate the Netflix special. Maybe Netflix can bring the duo back for another special after they wrap up Only Murders in the Building Season 3.
