Selena has moved into a new phase working with these brilliant guys.
She really does hold her own against these comedy legends. I was pleasantly surprised.
@@DANTE83100I didn't notice it was her til I read it in the intro
@@DANTE83100she absolutely doesn’t
I am HOOKED on the show! The show is so good and different. It’s so refreshing how a crime drama can turn into something so fun and deep at the same time. Also, never thought that Selena Gomez would fit so well in the cast.
“It’s perfect for him. It’s the EGO”
God bless Marty
He's so quick with his wit!
Steve martin never ages lol hes looked 60 all his life. But he looks great for almost 80 years old. Nonetheless i love these two together, they’re so funny. Wish i had a best friend in General lol
It can be hard to make friends, and keep in touch, especially as an adult. My best friend is notoriously awful at communicating because she’s got children now.
@@mmc8539 aww im sorry :/ at least u had a bestie. I never have.
He's barely got a wrinkle!
@@betterthanyourname2391 It’s okay to not have a bestie. Honestly, sometimes it’s not all it’s cracked up to be. It can be stressful and you can overthink things. It’s easy for me to get hurt and take things personally. All I want is for things to be back to “normal” which is never going to happen again. It’s a period of adjustment, and I miss my old friend. Sometimes she feels like an absolute stranger and I feel left out. I don’t think she means it, but some of the things she says are extremely hurtful m, and I don’t know if I can trust her even after almost 30 years of friendship. It takes a lot of work to navigate a relationship with kids and a busy life. I am thankful for her, but my mental health status can take a toll on me physically and emotionally sometimes, and it’s hard to put on a “positive face” all the time. I wish you the best. There are people that care, you just have to let them in. You can do that, I’m working on it slowly but surely, so if I can do it then you can do it too. I hope this helped a little bit internet stranger. If you ever want some other advice, or if you want to talk I am always walking to share my experiences if you’re interested and how I’ve overcome them.
@@mmc8539 wow im speechless. Made me cry🥺😭
This show feels like if I solved a mystery with my parents and I’m here for it
ill admit. Although I love Steve Martin and Martin Short but I definitely started watching because of Selena. So great casting as far as trying to get a large age range of viewers. Selena is why I came, Steve and Martin are why I stay lol
That’s how it went for me, too.
I'm the opposite. These two drew me in.
Came for Steve Martin and stayed for Steve Martin but that makes sense cause I love him and he co created it lol - I love Martin Short and Selena Gomez too!
The relationship between the three main characters is one of the reasons why this is a great show.
Selena made a great great decision working with these guys!! Her future career in the movie industry will rise and rise and rise!!
It’s doubtful she will do much in movies but I think she’ll be very successful in TV
This series deserves nominations and winnings next year emmys
Good news… there’s 17 nominations
I grew up with “Father of the Bride” being a family favorite. I’ve loved Steve Martin and Martin Short since. I watched Selena when she was on “Wizards of Waverly Place.” The three of them together are perfect for this show.
The two Martin’s are pure comedic gold! I have been watching them since the 80’s and I’m still laughing. I love their friendship!
The legends are funny so effortlessly
Hello Aishwarya
I didn’t think I’d like this show but I really do 😃 The subtle humour that Martin Short throws into the scenes is so funny! If you don’t know their humour then you won’t get it. Selena must be in stitches working with these two 🤣 Can you imagine getting the chance to work with these legends? Awesome!
This show is a definite hit!!! Loving the new season with Meryl and Paul Rudd!
Steve looks CRAZY good for his age, they both do. Good in & out.
a GREAT show!!! hilarious, witty, that "general eye roll" and the way they all crack jokes with one another is just hilarious in a witty intriguing, actually genuinely funny way. I mean, these 2 have always been funny. When I see them together I think of a father of the bride and "Fraonk" the wedding planner from Father of Bride. They just work so well together and with Selena Gomez in Only Murders in the Building, I am literally laughing out loud or "rewinding" 30 to 45 seconds at a time to laugh again at the hilarity and their facial expressions that feel like that kind of genuine funny that isn't really around all that much. worth every second of your time to watch!
Martin Short has the best facial expressions. 😂
OMG, these two are brilliant and quick. The "EGO" comment was so good.
My two favourite celebrities of all time. Pure gentlemen and hilarious to boot!
when the ex name came out of their mouths i was just like NOOO 😱🤦♀️
I’m a millennial and I love Martin/Martin
I have actual tears in my eyes, laughing and smiling, wow, love these two! Both handsome as ever too! :)
The show is brilliant. I love how my teenage niece can crack up watching it and so can I. Great show. I hope it continues for a long time.
Martin Short always looks at him like a puppy cause Steve Martin gave him his first break essentially. Martin Short was 36 when the three amigos came out. Goes to show you anything can happen with the right opportunities and connections. Also Martin short grew up 45 minutes from my house!
Is that true? I feel like Martin short was in movies befor then.
Short was in SCTV before he did three amigos.
It wasn't his first break. It was his first film. He'd been on television for over 10 years at that point, most notably on SCTV and SNL.
Love these 3 together ! This is the best TV in a very very long time ! Thank you Steve , Martin and of course beautiful 🤩 Selena 💕💕
I love this show! It’s the only show I cannot wait to watch every week.
Best show on Hulu hands down.
They mentioned Bieber, makes me wonder if they even know he was Selena's ex? Lol
hahaha I missed that. Don't think they know Selena and Justine had a thing.
I mean they didn't really know of Selena so probably not but since they know of him pretty well it seems maybe lol
He said it so innocently, I don’t think he did! Lol. It just goes to show she’s onto bigger and better things 😂
Martin Short's smile is like a super power.
I really like their show. It’s actually pretty fun to watch. Good characters
I lost count how many times I watched The Three Amigo's as a kid. Love that film and these legends.
I never get sick of their banter.
I haven’t laughed as hard watching shows as I did watching this interview.
I love hove Steve and Martin being old actors just act so well in this modern show with Selena Gomez who is very much younger than the both of them by age and the chemistry the 3 of them till today is unimaginable and precious 💕 They really have become besties.
Big love to all 3 of them and this brilliant show
S. Martin and Martin S. It's like they were MADE to be together!
With all the rebooting going on I'm astounded that they haven't done a sequel to "The Three Amigos", an underrated classic.
Martin Short should be in more movies. I watched the Santa Claus 3 just to see him- and he was the best part of the movie. 😊
His wife passed away, and he took a decade out of work to look after his children
This show is just brilliant, fantastic dynamic fantastic writing fantastic acting! Obsessed!
They also did the Prince of Egypt together!
Thank you guys for this amazing show❤ it is a delightful to watch and im sure this is going to give Sel a golden globe 🥹🩷🤌🏼✨best show ever!!!!
I LOVE their show and I LOVE the chemistry amongst the cast! What a unique cultivation of characters!
OMITB is SUCH a good show, and these two gentlemen crack me up - in the show and in this interview.
These guys came to Interlochen Center for the Arts a few summers back, and the hotel where I worked was right next to the amphitheater so I got to listen to them while I worked. I kind of wish they could have been there every night; it made at least part of my shift much better!
I love these two! Also love that Martin Short always wears his Order of Canada pin on his lapel for interviews and events!
What's that?
Wait, did they actually cut out what Steve was going to say?
the volume part that steve Martin mentioned, I totally relate to that and I am 33 years old... in fact, the last time I went to the cinema was in 2013 while visiting relatives in England and they really wanted to take me to a movie. the whole time I found myself covering my ears...and this has been my memory of going tge the movies ecer since I was a kid.
I love this show! The intro music and graphics draw you in like The Soprano’s used to. Keep the episodes coming!
This guy is a great interviewer!
This is my favourite show. The series was great, the second one had me laughing out loud, I can’t wait for series three
Have you finished season 3 yet?
Love,love,love the show. These three are perfect together ❤️
Steve Martin Short is my favorite.
I saw them perform on the 4th of July. I just love them so much!!!
They look great! Laughter keeps one young in so many ways. 💕
Seriously, the soundtrack is perfection.
LOVE THE COLLAB!!! LOVE THE NEW PHASE OF SELENA, POSITIVE MOVE AND SHE IS AMAZING .... POSITIVITY SCREAMS IN THE CHOICE THAT SHE HAS MADE!! I BOW DOWN ON YOUR CHOICE WITH STEVE MARTIN AND MARTIN SHORTS WITH SELENA GOMEZ!!! IS THERE A SEASON 2.... PLEASE!!!
It is so funny how many people love these true crime stories. I am not the only weirdo then listening to these stories with headphones while doing the housework!!!!
this is one of the best interview ive seen on them regarding the only murders in the building. even in the late night shows that i usually enjoys they just do not pull out their charms
Steve's totally right about movie volume in theatres - offensively loud sometimes.
Especially imax lol. Unless I’m seeing a film that puts an emphasis on its sound design I don’t want to leave with my ears ringing
For real
Love these men!!!! ICONIC & make the show AMAZING
I’m so happy that I’m not the only one who doesn’t like going to the movies because the volume is just way to loud for my liking, thank you Steve Martin now I don’t feel like I’m the weird one who had such problems and for that reason didn’t like going to the movies at all anymore after the one time I went and didn’t like it and this is me being a young adult.
Love this show! The three of them work so well together.
This show is great. Me and my sister recap the episodes together and go over all the new and old clues to see if we can figure out the murderer before the show tells us.
It was revealed this week. Had you figured it out already?
Isn't that crazy, grew up loving movies like the 3 amigos but didn't recognize Martin Short was in Only Murders, how amazing that stuff I loved as a kid now the same people years on are entertaining me as an adult and I didn't even connect the dots. Amazing! Stumbled across the show on Disney Plus and reluctantly played it as murder isn't my thing and so glad I did because it's fabulous! ♥
I ❤️these guys!! (The two “Martins”.) 😍
Only Murders is my new favourite thing, and I've got a lot of favourite things. Even the theme tune is like a warm blanket.
absolutely loved the show
“Perfect for him it’s the EGO” 😂😂
On paper Selena Gomez doesn’t make sense but she’s great in it and it totally works. Great show.
I guys crack me up!! Love you 😍
I am such a big fan of both Steve M and Martin S. I had heard the name Selena Gomez before but had no idea why she was famous...that just goes to show that the stars of the show are different for everyone.
Love these two.
Love the show
This is an amazing show, but without the talent that is boasts, it would not work! Love it.
I can't believe they are in their 70s. They are brilliant human beings!
I love the multi-generations!
Love love love OMITB!!!!!
They are Our generations Martin and Lewis except they cover five generations of great comedy. That's a pretty amazing feat to have give laughter to five generations 💕. They say laughter is the best medicine imagine the patients these two doctors have treated, 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌. They made my grandparents laugh, my mother laugh, myself laugh, my children laugh and now my grandchildren, ty guys for all the great laughs.
Real Kings of comedy for sure!
SELGO - the queen of the queens. This work is like a volume picture - ingenious
I love love this show
Hi Jessica! New job so I never catch you! Good to see you! Hi Amanda!❤❤❤
Love them all.
Who doesnt love selena gomez
"you can cut this" - "no we won't".... AAAAND they cut it -_- the show is perfect btw !!!
Classic Martin and Martin humor.
I love them.
I adore thos show!
Loved three amigos
I'm incredibly concerned about my genetics when Steve and martin ESPECIALLY steve, still look EXACTLY like they did in the 80s.
Martin short’s character steals the show for me.
There is no thing GENERATION GAP in Film Industry .
These are Legends💎 .
😢 Selena is in that Movie .
💏💘 .... I💘U.
Why is this pair not called Martin & Martin? Or even Steve Martin Short?
I thought he was talking about Leave it to Beaver as well.
MARTIN DID NOT JUST MENTION JUSTIN LMAOOOO
Martin Short is so funny!!!
Only murders in the building Is a little jewel
