“..Now there’s some sad things known to man
But ain’t too much sadder than
the tears of a clown
When there’s no one around..”
Depression is a horrible thing.
Feel pretty low about this. Always liked his work. I was a kid when “Mork and Mindy”, and I laughed my ass off at that show.
And who could have played Peter Pan better? No one. Jumanji was another madcap movie with Williams, and one of my favorites.
I don’t know his political leanings, and don’t want to. I just remember him as a very funny comic actor, who also had a damned fine dramatic side.
I’ll miss him.
RIP.
Ping to post 486, broken clock and all that.
I never found him that funny, definitely not “Mork and Mindy”, not that one where he dressed up as a woman.
I am DVRing reruns of South Park and Married with Children and watching them, I find those funnier maybe because its satire of real life versus a Jerry Lewis type making strange voices stomping around in a clown outfit.
