Martin Short brought back beloved character Jiminy Glick for the premiere of NBC’s “Maya and Marty” on Tuesday,in which the notoriously bad interviewer sat down with Larry David.
Glick asked David approximately his time on the short-lived comedy series “Fridays,” and then asked the comedian whether he played a curmudgeon (ill-tempered (and often old) person) on that show like he does on every other show. David responded by telling Glick that he is much thinner in genuine life than he looks on TV.
After a few more terrible questions, or David started to win visibly indignant. Glick asked him whether his anger is based on the fact that he is a Jew. “Because Jews have rage,” Glick said. “I read that somewhere.

Short first debuted the Glick character on “The Martin Short Show” back in 1999. While the show only lasted one season,Glick was spunoff into his own Comedy Central series called “Primetime Glick.” That show went on for three seasons and spawned a film, “Jiminy Glick in LalaWood.”“Maya and Marty” airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET on NBC.
