    • Seems manic folks have that ability. Odd thing about Robin was his mania moments were dominate. I can't imagine his lows. Back in the late 70's, during his Mork and Mindy run, he released some stand up LP's, as he began to loath his Mork character. I was a boy but remember there was a darkness of subject of New York and now see it for what it was. RIP RW

The last one to do this was Conan. And both of them had the greatest sidekicks. Ed & Andy knew how to help out when help is needed and do it without making the host look bad.

I loved his projects & always looked forward to finding our what he would choose next. When he died, I just couldn't believe there would be no more. Theae people are human after all, aren't they? And we miss them, perhaps far more than they could understand.

What a unique talent. And Robin Williams- the hero of my life. I wrote Mr. Williams a fan letter when I was in second grade, and got a signed Mork poster in return which I cherished for years.

I was in a restaurant and they had tv's around the place and there was what appeared to be a news program on and his picture came up and they were obviously talking about his death. The whole place got quiet and everyone was watching and listening to it. He was/ is loved in Vietnam because of how he helped portray the vietnamese way of life in Good Morning. They all told me they appreciated the accuracy in how the movie portrayed their culture. They really see him as a hero. I was very surprised by this.

Any other Hollywood celebrity would require you talk to their agent or lawyer and spend weeks negotiating over it. But Robin was the kind of guy that didn't think that way. 20 minutes later he was onstage giving the demo simply because I asked him to. kzhead.info/sun/iZmNiKmNoIRni6M/bejne.html

He didn't have his people go out to look for new talent, he actually went out himself and invited comedians to be on his show. I've never heard of anyone else ever doing that. You ask any comedian of the 70s or 80s where their career really took off and the will say it was after a Tonight Show appearance.There will never been another Johnny Carson.

There’s another movie I can’t remember right now that also impressed me to tears. I have migraine hangover so can’t think right now. Oh, Mrs Doubtfire was so hilarious but also he played the parts where he wasn’t allowed to see his children so poignantly. His heart always came through his comedy. Just never was nor will be another like Robin Williams. RIP dear man.

    • I'm glad you said, "It's not always funny." I thought I was the only one who thought that. I didn't realise how close the line between ad hoc comic genius and madness was until I saw Williams here. Having not seen the 'interview' (if it could be called that) before, I at once felt great jealousy but also, great pity. I was immediately reminded of a description David Cassidy in his book gave of his father right before madness overtook him towards the end of his life and just before a suicide attempt: "And now my father got into the role of being our host. He'd stand up, he'd sit down - the nonstop talker, the entertainer, going, 'And if you think that's fun, wait till you hear this.' I mean, he was really ON. He usually seemed sort of over the top anyway, but this was different. He was way over. There was some little glint in his eyes that seemed to say, not 'I'm having fun tonight' but something more like 'I'm just a little bit twisted'. Like something was frying in him." I have little doubt Williams was assisted by a substance because the amount of energy to drive him like that could not be supplied by a normal psyche. Too much light, not enough shade, ie. him sitting down and talking about his life - the routine is physically wearing to watch. Nowadays, of course, he could not get away with half the stuff he spoke about because of the PC brigade, so every second word would be f*ck instead. At least we were spared that.
