Robin Williams was a genius from the start. In this performance he reminds me of the international versatility and impeccable comic timing of Danny Kaye. This was about the time of his appearances on the '70s remake of "Laugh-In," and I'm sure he always stole that otherwise bad show. Wish he were still with us. Thanks for posting. Rest in peace, Robin.
@@TimandLauren fair enough. I met him in the early 80's, between summer of '81 and '83 and his mind still moved a mile a minute as he took it upon himself to entertain me and my co-workers. Dr Temple Grandin thinks he was on the autism spectrum, which can happen along with anxiety, ADD, ADHD, and other conditions
@@hishamlabban6308 Never thought of it. I did never get that joke anyway. Maybe it means that his mother rather would have had a girl as her child, but she loved robin also. Because her mother said: I love you in red, I love you in blue, but first of all I love you in blue. You know this interview where he mentioned this? But I agree: You can never know with robin wether the story is true or a joke. Should you not know this interview and should it be that you're happen to be a fan of robin also, here is a link of this interview for you. v-s.mobi/inside-the-actors-studio-june-10-2001-guest-robin-williams-1:34:09 I searched a long time for it until I found it on a russian internet page. The other one that was on the internet they did propably remove because of copyright reasons. I guess to make money with selling this on DVD. This to me personally is the best interview that I know of robin. You will hardly find another video where you feel closer to this genius and generous man that made the whole world laugh and cry at the same time whilst reminding us that we're all just humans. This is my favourite interview with him.
Wow! Thank you for posting this! He was so cute and handsome and funny - the perfect guy! He brought so much to this world thru acting, comedy and being the kind of guy who would do anything for a charity. I will miss him every day. Please try to put on some of his Laugh-In skeches Mr. Schlatter.
@@mbr7156 Right. Despite the boisterous mayhem of his stage act he was, apparently, a very sensitive caring sort of guy. As you may know, he raised tens of millions for homeless people with Billy Crystal and Whoopsie Goldberg. Most truly brilliant, creative comedians think very deeply about life, people and the world in general. That's what they do.Like great writers, they hold up a mirror and make us aware of things that we,'ve never considered....or they get us to look at things that we are aware of in a different way. Unfortunately, severe depression is very common amongst creative people. Robin had a fairly rare eye colour. Only about 8 percent of people worldwide have it. Alot of us, like Robin and yours truly have Scottish and / or Irish parentage or family origins. His dad certainly had Irish family connections. His mother, Laurie McLaurin would have to be of Scottish ancestry.The further north you go in Scotland and Scandinavia, the paler the eyes get due to the amount of darkness that prevails for much of the year. You can find photos of his parents via Google...Robert Fitzgerald Williams and Laurie McLaurin
I always thought Robin was so handsome, especially this specific time of his life. His hair, face, magnificent chest and bubbly personality made him my perfect dream boyfriend. Incidentally, I never once missed an episode of Mork and Mindy. 🖖🏼 ✨ ☄️🚀👨🏼🚀
Probably is too taken back by Robin and is literally crushing on him. He seems to have that *glazed* look in his eyes.... Or is it just a blank stare? Who knows....
@@patrice4194 hmm, resorting to insults right off the bat, that's so "grown-up" of you! Just because YOU don't "find" something whatever others do find it, doesn't mean that it is not.
Robin looked 40 in 1977 but still looked 40 in the late 90s but a more handsome one. He's a great example of looking better when he was older. (Love him but he looked goofy when he was young lol)
AHe was so quick mentally i used to wonder if he just ad libbed his act as he went a long lol. I can imagine he added or took bits away as he was performing .
Just Where is that theatre? I guess it must be Vegas. But the theatre is well decorated. As you see at the end of the video there are balconies surrounding the "place" and they are finely plastered if that is the right word.
I recognized the venue right away because I've been there many times. It is the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco. I saw Robin perform there (not this particular show).
This routine didn’t make me laugh. Is that bad no. If this was any other comedian I would have stopped watching within a minute. Robin has that special kind of charisma that makes you want to watch. He could take a shit onstage and still be mesmerizing

Laugh-In was so bad it really was funny IMHO.
Good point - thanks in large part to Robin.
Sheer comedic greatness at its very beginning’s. I miss you Robin! 💕
Brilliant comedic genius!
Sadly missed!. RIP Robin

I wonder if any of those people realized how great he would become? RIP Robin.
He got a standing ovation from the crowd so I think they had an idea
"I love you in blue..." was a poem Robin's mother used to say to him as a child. He mentioned it on one of his late night talk show appearances.
He mentioned it in inside the actors studio with James lipton.
What if that story was a joke?

God I wish I’d been alive when robin was doing these shows . He was my idol growing up in the 90s. We all miss you robin
Rest in powerful peace my favorite celebrity (and homie) of all time Robin Williams
🙏🌟❣🌟⚘🌟⚘🌟🎶🌟✊
RIP Robin Williams (July 21, 1951 - August 11, 2014), aged 63
You will always be remembered as a legend.
Watching Robin is an experience you never wish to end.
Breathtaking from start to demise . Special in so many ways
God how I wish I could back to the 70's... Robin was brilliant and so handsome!!
I remember watching this with my family when it aired then 😁
It's crazy to think he was 26 when he did this
Yeah he looked 45, honestly he looked so much better older too (90s and up)
oh man he is adorable here I was barely 18. I met him around '82, he was still cute. And he started performing but I didn't ask him for anything.

Kathy Crowe find yourself lmao
Absolutely marvelous!
I love that i get to see this in real life, especially after reading this part in Robin. This video just makes me miss his spark more by the day.
My mom would tell me "I love you little, I love you big, I love you like a little pig". RIP Robin, the world lost a great funny man!
He looks like Michael Landon ( Little house on the Prairie) here
Robin Williams you were the greatest! It's too bad you're gone.
R.I.P. Robin. 🌟
Robin brought me here.
Oh Robin, I miss you.
My hero. I love this man
It looks like this was taped at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco.
Thank you good book to read 2018 Robin all about this man
and thats why they used him for MORK FROM ORK,,,,,i was hooked
Im NOT a TUNA...Im NOT a TUNA ! LOL 3:34
good lord he was gorgeous
Yes, he was.....😔
He was when he was young...sadly his looks collapsed due to drugs and booze later....looked a bit like Rod Taylor the Australian actor

@@retrothingz "Whoopsie Goldberg"
I do agree with your comment though
Robin Williams was one of those guys who was born 39 years old. But looked 44
Yeah he's only 26 but looked at least 40, although in the 90s he still only looked 40, so he actually looked better when older.
I can’t stop watching this
RIP Robin Williams you'll miss all the time 😞
"This is Soviet tie" bahahahahaha
T-shirt foreshadows "Moscow on the Hudson."
People that are saying he wasn’t funny aren’t from the 1970’s and actually there watching him with the humor you had back then
I always thought Robin was so handsome, especially this specific time of his life. His hair, face, magnificent chest and bubbly personality made him my perfect dream boyfriend. Incidentally, I never once missed an episode of Mork and Mindy. 🖖🏼 ✨ ☄️🚀👨🏼🚀
Humour is the greatest aphrodisiac of all.
With cocaine or without?
that bearded guy is sitting there the whole time without a smile. makes you wonder who pissed in his corn flakes that morning :)

Ok, hear we gough.. read or blew?
Love you and miss your humor, you nut.
He dress like Mork from Ork :D I love this sitcom :D
Fun times, way back when.

Very hilarious

I think he was hot when younger, nice muscle tone, great hair. He filled out as he got older as all men tend to do
Beautiful old theatre hall,where is that?
I believe it's the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco
Yes it is.No other place on Earth like it.
good boys
I like how he was just playing and trying his material out takes so much courage
AHe was so quick mentally i used to wonder if he just ad libbed his act as he went a long lol. I can imagine he added or took bits away as he was performing .
2:56 is that a young jeff ross in the crowd?
I can't say for certain, but it definitely looks like him
Pretty sure that's Geoffrey Rush
it looks a LOT like him, but...he was 12 when this filmed so i think probably not
SaltPyramids oh haha my bad
So he was kind of doing Kaufman?
I thought the same thing at first.
3:03 was that Darth Vader from Union Oil?

That's actually really on point. I don't necessarily like this over the top flamboyant style of humour but I always watched for the performance.
let me in
How old is he here?
26. Born 1951 - Show was 1977
Carter West you’re smart
@@carterwest7807 looks older than 30
@@Paghmani1sher Most people did back then.
26 but looks at least late 30s. He looked better older tbh, he looked dorky when young, but like a handsome dad in the 90s/2000s.
he used his mom's joke on stage a lot. 1:45
Coked out of his mind
he has an accent
Honest Man he made an accent
He has a great many accents
😂
Would have been better without the terrible censoring noises. A standard beep is better or no censoring is best.
"Thank you for the *censored*" thumbs down
Just say no to drugs
Haha back when he was studdly hahaha

Adam Sandler for one , two - Adam Sandler is still alive, and three - this is Robin Williams.
Never found him funny.
Not funny at all
Wow. Even in his prime he wasn't funny.
Oooh! Maybe a fan will react, and you'll get some validation!
@@jackal59 He was great in Good Will Hunting and Alladin and some Mork episodes - and Pop-Eye. His stand up is just a train wreck.
Sorry, I've got to go with Ryan on this one. I love Robin Williams but his stand up is way overrated. Comic Genius? sorry... nope.
you can get on stage and do better ? he did get funny in his later years
His 2000's stand-up is pure genius, fuck outta here. This one might be dated and you can tell how he evolved FROM this.
such a treasure, he is missed
was it even funny?
