One of the great comic minds ever. He could do what Winters did. I saw Winters work items in a staged attic and improvise for 30 minutes. Williams did the same. He would grab a scarf, hat, item from a table and do a 5 minute riff.

His last TV series bombed and his stand up was not up to date. Probably just gave up and didn’t hope any more.
