This awards ceremony will get to air on TBS so we can only hope that there’s an elaborate bit being planned between Brooks and Martin.

For the almost mythologically large career that Steve Martin has had, The American Film Institute is honoring him with a Life Achievement Award. Previous AFI Life Achievement Award winner and fellow comedy legend Mel Brooks will be presenting Martin with the award, which we’ll all get to see on Jun. 13th on TBS.

As of now, Steve has ¾ of an EGOT as well as a Mark Twain Prize and will now be receiving this award. So, he has an EGOMTAFI?

Comedy legend and award winning bluegrass recording artist Steve Martin is getting honored by the American Film Institute, which will be aired on TV on TNT.

Not only is this a great honor that’s well deserved for Martin, but it’s probably a great chance for us all to see a great, funny speech from Steve once more.
