The thing that always amazes me about Robin Williams is how he performs stand up with the zeal and conviction of a baptist preacher, stage presence of a rock star, and improvs like a great jazz artist. You can tell part of it is planned but he is going off in the moment, working the audience like two instrumentalists playing off of each other.
“Not even a German Geneticist could have thought that one up!”
Cocaine
Right on ✌️
His timing was better than the actual jokes. His voices and the way he played up a joke was so much skill that most comedians would deliver it flat
That’s the best description of Robin Williams I’ve ever read!
There will never be another Robin Williams. One of a kind actor, comedian, and performer. RIP.
Forever and ever, amen.
Indeed
Btw...Gerardo Herrera...
Best name ever!
Amen to that!
There probably would be but people are not allowed to express themselves anymore because humor is forbidden.
You're only given one little spark of madness... you mustn't lose it. - Robin Williams
Great quote..!
Thank you…
Full-tilt-bozo was great.
Don't worry, I havent
Well he did a LOT of cocaine too, that helped his madness and energy quite a bit.
@@denisrivarola2387 That's the worst part about that sht...you feel brilliant, because you ARE being brilliant. Until it stops doing that, and you just become an insane babbler.
Not too many performers have had me in tears when they passed away. Losing Robin still gets to me.
You're definitely not alone in that feeling. The day he passed there were multiple people who text me asking if I was ok. They knew how much I liked his work & still do! Ha he would've had a TON of fun with everything going on these days.
I know, it was like everybody lost a “Funny Uncle”.
Not a day goes by when I dont think about him in some capacity he was so good my all time favorite.
Me too
When Stevie Ray Vaughan passed away... I cried.... Robin Williams made me laugh till I cried when I heard of his passing my eyes watered up thank God we still have his work that he left behind probably the greatest comedian ever
His dancing at the beginning was great.
"I will part you like the red sea" Bahahaha!! Oh Robin Williams, you are sorely missed x
A visually great bit.
Robin Williams isn't gone, he's in jumanji wait for someone to roll a 5 or 8..
There is almost nothing on this planet I wish to be true more than this. I don't think we've ever needed him more.
Regurgitated comment but yeah
I thought he went back to Ork.
@@DavidLS1 Jumanji is a jungle on Ork.
An 8!!!! Who rolled an 8?!?!?!? 😁😁😁😁
Lightning in a bottle. Absolutely incredible man.
I love what David Letterman said about him when he first saw Robin perform, he said it was like Hurricane Williams!
The energy, THE ENERGGGYYYYYY!
The cocaïne, the cocaaaaaaaaïne!
It was a joke. And apparently he was indeed
Cocaine is a hell of a drug ha
He did massive amounts of Cocaine in the 80's. He often did so much at times in his stand up you can just see the sweat pouring off of him. I loved him so much, We all miss him. Such a wonderful human too.
Cocaiina...
It was so brilliant and bold for Robin to speak about HIV/AIDS on live tv in the 80s. Im sure there are many people here that werent born yet, too young or grew up in small towns where no one spoke about it. So many dont know how many were sick...and how most treated them all like filth.
It was scary and awful. So many people died far too young. So many died waiting for help. ❤
Totally agree 💯%
Horrible memories - and all true
Reagan like Trump.... fools who couldn't lead our country, when leadership was so badly needed.... AIDS & COVID. it only affects a few people and it will be over by Easter.
Indeed. If only they could have just.. stopped having promiscuous sex.
Look how people reacted with covid !
I wish you had known how many people would have dropped what there were doing to tell you how important you were to them. I still can't believe you're gone.
Billie Fingers it broke my heart when I heard, it's so sad because everyone loved him. The only problem is, no amount of love and support can make you happy if you can't find that in yourself.
lani mag He didn't die from depression but a rare brain disease called lewy body dementia.
💔💔💔
@@chrichtonsworld1 not rare. 2nd leading cause of dementia after Alzheimers.
Its not that he didn't know. Its what he knew. He was so self aware. He knew he couldn't live without pleasing people. What is it to lose the body but not the soul? He could have lived with depression, he had for 60 years. He couldn't live without performing.
33 years on, and it's still as funny and relevant. Robin was a true legend
35 years as of 2023
Comedic genius -
except when stealing jokes
@nfltrrrqwsa7512 good comedians borrow elements of a joke, great comedians steal them!
The relevancy kills me. It still feels current. Or perhaps it’s that he was in a league of his own cause nobody around has that certain element Robin had.
His 9 minutes monologue was a 50 minutes - any other comedian - special. Greatest entertainer ever.
The modern monologues are boring compared to his 😅😅
@@pricey0986ify Dave Chappell has been very poignant and funny!
Really? Was there any funny joke after the 6th minute? That is when I stopped wasting my time watching it.
@@jankrekan2632 yap. Really.
@@jankrekan2632 Geeez much of a personality there Jan?
WOW 8 minutes of comedic genius talking about sex and diseases without a curse word! I miss Robin for sure. His own daughter Zelda quoted from the The Little Prince-"In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing,when you look at the sky at night". Then she said. you- you alone will have the stars as no one else has them, I'll try to keep looking up😢. Memory Eternal ~Robin Williams.
What a monologue. He was ahead of his time. Such energy and for 9 mins. He was truly a performer.
The man was a volcano of humor. So hip, so cool, so smart, so right.
I remember watching this episode when I was in high school. Can't believe he got away with that monologue back in 1988. When he hosted snl it was always the funniest ever
I was just thinking that! I don't think anyone could get away with that in SNL today!
I don’t think he would have gotten away with it in 2024 either.
The energy + brilliance = Genius!!! AMAZING! So grateful for Robin Williams! RIP!!!
He won a Golden Globe on the same night.
It must have been agony for him to know he was losing all that talent, that speed lightning mind little by little. To know that your brain is withering away must be the saddest way to go. The body is strong but the lights are dimming. I understand why he took his life. You will always be a legend. Thanks for the laughter Robin.
Yeah, when I found out the whys.....combined with the fact that he'd faced down addiction and severe mental health struggles his whole life, all I could think was "What possible other choice could he have had?" Especially because the exact combination of diagnosis is.....next level hell. And I imagine he was already deteriorating pretty badly and wanted to go out while he was still him. And that will never stop breaking my heart. My favorite actor, comedian, hell, favorite human being I don't know personally. It's very rare a day goes by I don't think of him.
I think you've hit it. Must have been terrible realising what you had and slowly feeling it slip away. Reminiscent of the Hal 9000 in 2001 space odyssey. When Dave the astronaut slowly closed down Hals higher brain functions. Jonathon swift the great essayist was out walking and came across a tree where all the leaves at the top had died and changed colour. All the rest were still green. And he realised that it would happen to him. 'I shall die at the top first....'
What was he diagnosed with before he committed suicide? I just thought he was suffering with depression & addiction as he always had? X
@@chanellevenes1150Robin was suffering from Lewy body dementia, misdiagnosed as Parkinson's. He was experiencing severe changes in cognition, memory loss, sleep impairment, and loss of motor control. A devastating condition for a comedic and kinetic genius.
A partially dimmed Robin Williams would still have been 1,000x funnier than any other living being.
Robin Williams was too good for this world.
Robin Williams. Known world wide, very famous even here in Italy... and yet it annoys me that nobody here knows why he was so great. Most italian people have never heard his million voices, have never seen a single piece of his stand-up and have never heard him improvise, spawning a millions jokes in a minute from a single word. So sad, what a beautiful talent, as a comedian, as an actor, unique, creative, heartfelt. An old italian movie says "What is genius? It is imagination, intuition, decision and fast execution.", if that is true, Robin Williams was a true genius.
Who else feels like they got a whole special out of that little time?
I'm in stitches from this, alone.
Even more
The thing about Robin Williams is the audience had to work to keep up.
Now that IS an entrance!!! Love and miss you Robin
I maybe 5 years late on this, but I still miss Robin Williams.
But he's here in spirit, helping us thru this trying time!
‘Tap dancing in diving boots’ 😂😂😂😂😂
They could have just had the whole show being his monologue.
That’s called stand up... 😂
If you have never seen it, find Robin's episode on a show called Inside the actors studio. A truly great performance. From what I understand they had
cut down Robin's 5 hours of basically doing improv to 2 hours to make the show. RIP Robin Williams. One of the truly great comedians who was taken
from us too soon.
Robin Williams is awesome! I love his quick wit! There will never be anyone like him. RIP Robin Williams
I find it hard to watch Robin Williams anymore. He brought joy to so many people and we never guessed the pain he was in. RIP Robin ❤
Fuck, they should have given him an standing ovation every time he performed.. He was too good..
The only comedian that can still make me laugh out loud.
Same! His comedic timing is so sharp and his humor is so goofy. There will never be another one like him.
He was a man who could make you feel so many emotions in just seconds & behind it all he struggling silently while giving a lot of a reason to live on.
He will forever be a gift to humanity who brought us side splitting laughter and joy. We miss you Robin, now and forever.
What it must have been like to be inside his brain...The buzzing, whirring,.the clanging, the colours the roller coasters, the merry go rounds, the screaming and the crying and the laughing...but now all still.....and like the empty fair ground.....just some paper blowing and the ferris wheel stopped. A lonely clown crying by the mirror maze......
Lovely poetry, Elfa.
You capture him so well. He was a genuine comedic genius. A much missed voice to parody and tear apart pretenders and fools alike. I'm glad we had him for as long as we did but I think he left a hole in the hearts of many of us.
Nicely said. You seem to have a TALENT for prose. Thank you for this. 🤓.
@@walterspaceman5592 this did NOT make any sense, nor did it have ANY connection at all to the comments. Wtf?!
Don't do this to me...
During this pandemic, we’ve been watching everything with Robin Williams. We just found this today. There will never be a comedian or versatile actor like Robin Williams, again. RIP, Robin!
It just now popped into my suggested list. I never even knew he hosted.
@@christianschoff2490 Enjoy!
@@christianschoff2490 Neither did we! It popped up on my suggestion list, too! We thought we’d watched everything with Robin Williams that existed on RUclips, but nooo. We’re happy for another!
Have ya'll watched him with Jonathan Winters on Johnny Carson? Priceless.
@@lorinapetranova2607 We’ve seen him on with both and you’re right, it was priceless!
The Goat of stand -up in my opinion. Rip Robin Williams🙏
Robin Williams will always be in my heart. He can always make me laugh.
robin you inspired me and made me laugh in hard times R.I.P you will be missed, now you are with the stars YOU ARE AND WILL ALWAYS BE A LEGEND
Duuuude. He can't hear you man!
And how would u know that bud
Vivek Rao I don't think they have internet at where he is ;)
its OK. Wherever he is, RW is the Internet
We gonna miss you, Robin. Rest in Peace!
We love your humor, here in Chile.
We do?
Robin was found by a TV producer as he was doing his act on a street corner in LA. True!
They were looking for a fill in actor for a TV show - and the producer grabs Robin and takes him to the studio and of course he was spectacular in the role. After that one show - they began work on a show just for Robin and two weeks later the first episode of Mork & Mindy was on the air.
2 weeks from street corner act to Number 1 TV show inception. An incredible talent! (I think the producer was the late Garry Marshall)
We are all geniuses when we are in the right environment.
Toy skipped over the part where he debuted as Mork in _Happy Days_ in order to spin off into _Mork and Mindy._
He was discovered at the Comedy Store doing stand up (not on a street corner) by a producer for Laugh-In. He also appeared on the Richard Pryor Show. A few months later he appeared as Mork on Happy Days after they needed a replacement for a recently departed actor and then a few months after that, Mork and Mindy premiered. It wasn't 2 weeks and Mork and Mindy was never a #1 show and they didn't work on a show just for him right after the Laugh-In appearance. Once they saw him as Mork, the show was written to incorporate his zany nature but adjusting a show to suit an actor isn't uncommon.
None of that takes anything away from Robin and his phenomenal talent and it was still a quick rise to stardom, but that's what really happened according to multiple sources. Regardless of how his rise happened, he was one of the greatest entertainers to ever live.
First thing I've seen of Robin since he passed. I was surprised at how much it still hurts. RIP
best monologue in SNL
In all SNL history, hands down!
The way to a lady’s heart,
“I WILL PART YOU LIKE THE RED SEA!!!”
God what a wonderful talent
What an ENERGY!
I saw that and thought: Give him a chair...... or a Valium.
+Philipp Kay just GENIUM/
+Philipp Kay wow erection at 0^30/He is beautiful totally!!!
cocaine energy
now i know why it rains so much. Robin is making God pee from the laughter.
That's funny 😂
Indeed!
That and climate change
@@kitcoffey7194 lol 👍🏿
So true and the Angels as well.🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rest in Peace, Robin. You are greatly Loved.
His dancing at the beginning is one of the most funniest and adorobale perfomance ever!
He was the GOAT, RIP. He's in another realm doing his standup comedy, and entertaining the audiences there.
Hard to believe the worst thing we worried about was safe sex.
didn't know he had great footwork
lol u from addu?
yeah. the toga pic gave it away? haha
He actually trained in dance
He was an amazing dancer, singer, actor, comedian but, most importantly, A great humanitarian. He came from a wealthy and privileged family and had been raised in the realm of "classic" graces. He learned to let loose in his late teens, early twenties.
Absolutely Brilliant
Never Ever will there be another to come close to the genius of Robin Williams
Unreal. Great routine (no one else could do this) and I had no idea he had dance moves like that. R.I.P. Robin Williams.
Pity & shame that he never truly appreciated how deeply loved he was, how outrageously talented he was, and that none of us knew or understood how deeply troubled he was. So many choose to leave us every day. All those voices silent, all those smiles and faces forever lost.
I saw his photo on the front of the Chronicle newspaper and thought it was about an upcoming show. Looked closer and pointed the paper to everyone l passed on the street that fateful, hole in my heart morning. Such disbelief, lost, unending tears. Missed and loved are understated words. Still so very missed. Still so very loved.
I miss him so much. I'm gen x, remember looking forward each week , for new "Mork and Mindy" . Then, as I got older, I realized, Robin was truly a genius comic mind. His passing messed me up for a little while, I was already dealing with some "issues " , I find out that day , one of my very favorites passed, the way he did...my own headspace...was in the same neighborhood....at that time. I'm ok now....then. that was rough.
how interesting to note years in the future his words are still very true and his jokes still hit the punchlines and are relevant.
"I shall make you more moist than Manila in the monsoon season!" Jesus 😂🤣🤦🏻♂️
I just spit my Diet Dr Pepper!
So sad that a talent as huge as his..that had the entire world in the palm of his hand, had problems just like many people today..he left a huge hole in the entertainment industry..definatly a legend
RIP Robin, we all miss you.
Still missed dearly, still timeless, still one of the best EVER
He did that monologue without a net. That was all ad-libbed. Genius!!!
wow, what a presence, monologue, performance and authenticity, like you feel it's coming from his own imagination unlike these days they tell jokes like robots, lifeless. Robin is a legend. RIP.
had no idea he could dance like that!
He had training
This is better than every single other monologue from SNL that I have ever seen.
strange watching this, knowing that he is not here any more
He was such a legend and he will never be forgotten and he will never be gone from us as long as we all keep our memories of him in our hearts forever
Such genius. I miss the 80's. I miss robin Williams. Both his comedy and his acting. He was amazing in so many ways.
Agree. The 80's were golden with great music to dance through to the 90's and then BLEAH.
Robin was brilliant, imagine the guts it took to do that routine and pull it off ! You only have to look at the band members cracking up in the background...
Robin Williams dancing like Michael Jackson in the beginning almost got me rolling on the floor 😂
Robin once made fun od me on "The Tonight Show" in 2003 when I accidentally passed out on camera. Knowing Robion, its amazing to see that this whole monolog was improvised!
You were so lucky.... Sorry you passed out, though
that man was a gift for us from America of the 70s, you cannot understand him without getting what that decade was all about.
He was very 24 hour non stop
This man is truly my hero. Not once have I seen him and not instantaneously been overwhelmed with joy.
Funniest man to live, miss his comedy genius especially these days
Absolutely the funniest person I have ever seen!!
..."more moist than Manila in monsoon season"😂🤣😅
We will never see another Robin Williams again - the energy, transitions - one of a kind.
Now that's a monologue!!! RIP Robin Williams!!!
I miss him so much..
Kushaagra Jain *puts hand on screen, shuts eyes and sheds tears*
True that.
I remember seeing this live while living in NY, thought I would swallow my tongue, the entire show was just as outrageous !
You must have been so lucky.
"Amazing Wonder Weasel!"! Ah, the comedic GENIUS that was Robin Williams!
I swear, the man had no "OFF" position on his switch...
The guy was PHENOMENAL! He was like a whole sky full of colorful fireworks with all the shapes, and sounds, and displays of a 4th of July on coke!
Well that was the best SNL entrance by far
robin is not gone. i saw him the other day in golden gate park just walking around as mrs doubt fire.
The entrance.
A Brilliant Entrance!
I can only HOPE to have the enthusiastic energy this man had. We miss you Robin.
MY GOD!!!!! what an incredible talent. Gone too soon but never forgotten. I miss him.
It was wonderful to watch him in The Actors Studio. He knows he has to answer questions. He was just too much like always. Yes I agree there will never anyone like Robin. I think God is having a good time with this wonderful soul.
What a man, a true legend🔥
I wished Robin was at Studio 8H every Saturday night
An outstanding comedian that never failed to empress and make you laugh. When I first seen him on Happy Days in 1975, you knew there was going to be someone special that would make the world laugh, right up there with Richard Pryor and today with Dave Chappell...God's gift to us to help take the edge off life's crappy days...🙃
Robin Williams and James Taylor? This had to be a great show. Wish I could see the whole thing.
Amazing Robin Williams 30 years on, no one like him then or now.
The best comedian there will ever be you are missed!
They need to do a movie marathon in memory on Robin William aswell as the now deceased Sir Sean Connery
Best monologue in SNL history
What? It was ok
So lucky to have grown up with your humor and entertainment, so sad to not be able to grow old with you too. You are sorely still missed!
he was a great dancer. rest in peace
This routine now more than ever feels like he's talking to us now. God bless you Robin Williams😢😢
The band members in the background reacting,,,, priceless.
He has so much energy and thinks so fast that you can hardly follow him. RIP and keep making them laugh in Heaven!❤
