The Other Clifford
Clifford the Big Red Dog wasn’t the only famous Clifford of the 90s. Today we’re unearthing your childhood memories of the Martin Short and Charles Grodin comedy about a deranged 10-year old and his tumultuous relationship with his short-tempered uncle. The fact that a man in his 40’s was playing a ten-year-old boy wasn’t the only weird thing going on here.
Clifford himself was a complete nightmare of a child, and Uncle Martin was the kind of guy you didn’t want to get in trouble with because if you were as naughty as Clifford, there was a chance you’d be shot through an amusement park ride at hyperdrive speed and nearly gobbled up by Larry the Scary Rex.
