    I honestly think Steve Martin is one of the greatest comedians of all time. His minimal stand up career (time wise) and his body of acting work are absolutely incredible. Even if you factor in some of the stinkers like The Pink Panther, it’s just astounding. I mean, his performances in The Jerk and Little Shop of Horrors are pure gold. And on top of that he wrote for one of the most influential TV shows of all time, The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.

    All that is to say that while I’d be sad we weren’t getting more in the future, he has left such an incredible trail of work over the last 50 years that I won’t be too upset if he rides off into the sunset at the top of his game.
