This is one of the funniest stand-ups i've seen!!! Seriously, I couldn't stop laughing at all!! "I didn't have a needle, needle, sorry i got possesed there for a sec, needle"!! LMFAO!!! "Did you bring any explosives? UHHH!!!
I have to disagree, bra... Coke, amps, Ritalin... your funny for like, the first twenty min... then you start speaking like a fucking robot, loss of comedic timing & the personality of a wet carrot... you know what?.... fuck it, you are right!.. hes on booger sugar! yup... Xanax to ride smooth , land easy & feel like it never happened... BENZOS... ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTE... - Don't cope with dope!... I advocate not, any mind altering substances/drugs whatsoever... I'd support prohibition of alcohol also, first foremost... God Willing... "I just want to make an impression"... " I actually said, "I want to make an impression", which was dumb thing to say"... I LOL'd hard when he said that shit... - end of rant... good day to all.
@Crimsonphilosophy It's called the nervous self-deprecating Jew routine, Allen wasn't the first, the difference is there if you're familiar with a number of comedy routines. It's almost like Jewish people have a reason to feel so nervous and paranoid, if only I could recall an event that would cause this...
this is great... but can somebody explain to me, the "needle" joke, why he repeated it like that? ... was that an OCD attack or some shit?... hilarious
Dude, I wish I could explain it to you. I specifically watched that part 3 times because of your question... I can't figure out what the fuck is going on there. It made me laugh a bit, but I don't understand.
yeah bro... I have fucking ocd.. pretty bad too... I really think he broke into a Howard Hughes fuckin, repeating word/'s, sentences .. u know like "the way of the future, the way of the future" lol... it was him not being to get off the word "needle" & if any mother fucker out there, with ocd, knows what's up... shit was hilarious though. .. guy is funny, early days till now... people laugh at my ocd bullshit, but it ain't funny, & I'm not complaining lol... but I think that is what's going on here... ... something that people with ocd will never understand... until he is satisfied/content with saying/repeating/quantifying, that fucking "needle", the word... then he cannot move on... cannot shake it, till he's content.. it will be all he can think about, & he's got a set to do... if ocd sufferers get INTERRUPTED OR DERAILED during/from completing a ritual, then either of two things transpire.. for me it became 50/50... if my ritual performance was abruptly halted, I could either shake the thought of it not being completed, and work it off until the next trigger for corresponding fucking ritual... or... this is what is not comprehended. .. an ocd sufferer will be consumed by the thought, compulsion... no matter how embarrassing, irrational, nor distance from the trigger, that the sufferer cannot withstand the idea of his/her ritual performance remain uncompleted... and it is ALL THAT IS ON THEIR MINDS, UNTIL THAT RITUAL IS SATISFACTORILY CARRIED OUT... ... FUCK OCD... ... HOPE U ALL GET THE GIST OF HOW THIS BULLSHIT DISORDER WORKS.. IT'S UNNECESSARY, NOT REAL, AND CAN BE OVERCOME.. BECAUSE IT REALLY DOES FUCK PEOPLE UP.. I DON'T KNOW WHY I'M STILL WRITING IN CAPS.. YO TAKE CARE.. THX FOR TRYING TO FIELD MY QUESTION ABOUT THE "NEEDLE" RICHARD LEWIS THING... ... "YOUR MOTHER SUCKS COCK IN HELL!!" OK... TAKE CARE MAN.. LOL
NickKennyPwrz That does make the most sense. I used to have the OCD-significant but nothing that bad, and I've kept it totally manageable to the point that it's just a slight inconvenience now but others with it will sport it - the same way I always spot it in people that are servers for some reason. I still contend that my disdain for having different foods on the same plate touching is just common sense and not O.C.D. but others disagree. Which means they're wrong.
Im reading the book 'Comic Insights' with interviewsof standups, hes one of them and he said he only even went to the Improv after getting good. Yet here hes on TV and making less jokes than I did on my first ever 7-minute set.
Norm MacDonald, Tommy Smothers(shown here), Fred Willard, Gilbert Gottfried, Bob Saget and now Richard Lewis. We're losing all of the greatest ones faster and faster now, folks.
ok, yeah... that end rant about passing fucking gas, how it's genetic, running around stage like a jerk off face... I'm sure he changed that outro soon after... other than that, this shit was funny as hell... "Sharon fuckin ate too" lol... "mother sucks cock in hell", "needle", "we have coal mines in Montana, I didn't mean to tell u that" ha... early Lewis I presume, right?.. Hilarious Hebe ova here! his drug use, ocd, womanizing, free basing, Christie Meth, Depression, DARKNESS!. Laugh out loud, okayyy!...
Rest in peace funny man. Thanks for the laughs.
RIP Richard, great delivery of comedy
I love Richard Lewis so much, he's amazing.
He was just a dream. ❤
best hair ever
Sharon always ate too!! LMFAO!!!
This guy has had the same hairstyle for 30 years
Rick Springfield hair.
more like 70 years
He has a great head of hair. Jealous?
Lol that mock Danish was priceless!
He's like, a young Woody Allen...on Speed!
from Brooklyn, New York, Richard lewis
I was crushin' on Lewis when I was growing up. I saw him the other day for 60-he could still be crushed on. Cute.
PS I like his hair.
He was a good looking man. ❤
the audience must be comatose
This was before he settled into the “black suit” uniform...
"I went on machete night"........too funny
This is one of the funniest stand-ups i've seen!!! Seriously, I couldn't stop laughing at all!! "I didn't have a needle, needle, sorry i got possesed there for a sec, needle"!! LMFAO!!! "Did you bring any explosives? UHHH!!!
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
first time seeing this guy. he seems very strung out.
That's kind of why we loved him so. He stayed wicked funny in sobriety too.
Would you happen to have the 5th Annual Young Comedians show? I'm looking for the Mike Binder performance. Thanks!
delivery is on message. needs more jokes. rip, richard
he is in his classic coked up form.lol

This is how I will remember him, and not the frail old man on Curb.
SNIFF
This is hilarious. I hadn't heard this particular routine. He's a combination of Robin Williams and Woody Allen. Genius.
He’s just Lenny Bruce, all the way down the snapping
Is this the first time you've watched stand-up comedy?
What's that word??....Danish for splitting the atom???.....The first time I heard that....I almost died laughing.....

4:09 who is that? completely forgot
I love him on Curb, but this is almost woody Allen verbatim
He sounds like woody allen
host reminds me of anchorman
That’s Dick Smothers, he’s famous, a legend. The Smothers Brothers was a big act in the 60s.
Woody on coke! Love them both!
0:00 Ron Burgandy?!
He's going to be on The Daily Show today. He's not that popular on internet or is he.
@sirchubs1 thatscomedy
why wasn't he bigger?
NEEDLES
The Danish word for atom splitting is actually atomspaltning.

"Fewer".
Norm MacDonald, Tommy Smothers(shown here), Fred Willard, Gilbert Gottfried, Bob Saget and now Richard Lewis. We're losing all of the greatest ones faster and faster now, folks.
You realize that Tom Smothers (Not shown here) was the one who died?
@@bartstarr100 Fixed it and added Saget who I couldn't think of. Thanks for your dogged attention to detail.
they should write the fact he was never in seinfeld into curb, him and larry's confrontations are always fuckin hilarious
Has he ever actually uttered a complete thought without jumping to something else halfway through?
Is this guy telling his life story or doing a comedy routine? I can't tell...
I think he's hilarious! They have said this is his real self and real life: He's really like THIS!
So Woody-ish :)
Bad performance by Richard Lewis he's breaking out in a sweat. Its sad to see
i like him on Curb but wow this is not funny at all
Totally agree.
Ahh shut the fuck up and don't watch it then... Everyone's a critic lol
@@vinnygalbo883 Richard, that you?
RIP MAN
Should have stayed away from that dam Jab 😒
why did I ever think he was funny?
Follicles, yes ... Funny, no.
Too PC, he can be blue but I think the show here wouldn't allow it so there you have it, unfunny comedy.
ok, yeah... that end rant about passing fucking gas, how it's genetic, running around stage like a jerk off face... I'm sure he changed that outro soon after... other than that, this shit was funny as hell... "Sharon fuckin ate too" lol... "mother sucks cock in hell", "needle", "we have coal mines in Montana, I didn't mean to tell u that" ha... early Lewis I presume, right?..

Where are the punchlines? This shit is NOT funny.
