Jackie Rogers Jr.
February 7, 2008
When I first saw Martin Short play Jackie Rogers Jr, I was taken back. The guy was so weird. But his weirdness grew on me and he became one of my favorite of Short’s characters. I remember being at a girlfriends house watching the Showtime special Martin put on (1985 or 86). At any rate, her father walked passed and saw the Jackie Rogers Jr. character and instructed us to turn off the tv!
Yes, he’s strange. But Jackie, we hardly knew ye!
got here looking for a video of this after i coudn’t find it on youtube.. just a vague memory now (and was wondering if I was imagining it or something!) but the picture confirms I wasn’t crazy! Thanks for the saving my sanity with this blog!
ok now with more extensive searching.. found it.. here’s a great one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFoDCmQpSJg&feature=related
