Show Notes
Clifford tells the story of a 10-year-old boy (played by a 40-year-old Martin Short) who stays with his uncle Martin (Charles Grodin) while his parents are on a business trip in Honolulu. It was a critical and commercial flop - Roger Ebert reported "in a screening of some 150 people, two people laughed, once apiece."
We dedicate this episode the memory of the late great Charles Grodin.
