The actor planned to focus on his family, especially his wife Anne Stringfield

The 77-year-old said he would not be looking out for movies and series once “Only Murders in the Building” wrapped up.

He was content doing his comedy tours with his best bud.

He is also not interested in doing stand-up comedy again.

Martin and Short said they were disappointed that Selena Gomez— another “OMITB” costar— did not get an Emmy nomination for her role on the show.

Luckily, she earned her recognition in the producers category.
