Brian Linehan, of whom this was a parody, was also from Hamilton, as was Martin, and asked Short to stop doing these bits. I think Short agreed. These are some of the funniest SCTV bits of many great bits.
LANAHAN: Melonville, 1982, Winter. And one recalls a Guy Caballero (RIP Joe Flaherty), signing a Steve Roman to a $5.2 MILLION, three-year contract, making Steve Roman the highest-paid performer, in the history of SCTV. At that time, you, Steve Roman, are 6'2" tall and weigh 185 lbs. And now, less than 13 months later, you are 6'1/2" tall, and have ballooned to over 365 lbs. How does this Steve Roman handle such a drastic, physical transformation? ROMAN: I'm very sorry, I-I wasn't paying attention, there. Can you repeat that question, Brock? LANAHAN: (looks to camera, unsure of what to think) That's just too funny, at the top of this little interviewing sketch.

Really? Where did you hear about that?
Growing up in Toronto, and watching his interviews, I can testify that Martin Short's impersonation of Brian Linehan is absolute perfection.

That look at the camera at 2:02 is sublime.
I wish that John Candy had done more with the Steve Roman character. I thought that all of the Steve Roman skits were really funny.

Steve Roman The Judge Magnum PI
Don't forget FBI Jockey! One of the best SCTV promos ever!
"I remember that she smelled well...."
A real classy broad 😂
Part 7?? 😅
Every year this day
Who was the announcer in this skit? He was also ITV's main announcer, as well, at the time. I've never been able to find out his name.
Was Candy's Steve Roman based upon anyone?
brock wasnt impressed for a change
But he said Katharine Hepburn told him that Brock would make a great Charles Boyer!
He played for Man U goddamn it!😂
@@joedodic549they could do with him now 😂
Is this a take off on Roy Firestone? Reminds me of him.
it's Martin Short's impression of Brian Linehan, he had a show in Toronto interviewing celebrities back in the 80's.
