Saget also spoofed his experience as host of “America’s Funniest Home Videos” in a presentation of “Harvard’s Funniest Home Videos,” a collection of shots showing various people getting hit in the groin with a white volleyball...

...only three of them are significantly present in One Night at McCool's. If she had had any more boys to toy with, this movie might have turned into a sobering study in multiple-personality disorder.

...Martin did not bomb, as, I must admit, I was hoping he would. Because that would have meant pulling off a surreal, star-befuddling, one-time-only performance. Instead, he gave a safe, caretaker performance that was hardly a performance at all. True, his funniest jokes were laced with a measure of contempt for the industry (on the awards' use of the phrase, "The Oscar goes to..." rather than "The winner is...": "God forbid anybody should think of this as a competition. It might make the trade ads seem crass"). But Martin is thoroughly L.A. at heart, and he kept...
