So sad. A permanent solution to a temporary problem. May he rest in peace.

Holy crap!!!!

RIP.

63, apparent suicide. Awww. He was very talented. He amazed many with his antics for decades. I wasn’t a huge fan but I recognized his talents. I’m sorry his demons caught up with him.

I didn’t like him but I did like his movie Quick photo I think was the name. He played a creepy crazy photo mart clerk.

So sad for his family & friends. Wish The Crazy Ones had gotten better ratings. Co Star Sarah Michelle Gellar husband lost his dad to suicide. Pam Dawber lost co star in My Sister Sam to murder.

I’m not going to pretend I liked him, or his awful acting, but I’m glad that in his passing, it brings attention to the very real problem of depression.

Thank you, Robin, for all the entertainment, including your serious stuff (e.g.Awakenings). May you Rest In Peace and our prayers are with your loved ones.

This is sad news. I don’t know his politics, and can only guess, but he is one of the Hollywoodies I liked. Funny beyond compare! RIP...

Just unbelievable.

A small talk and word of encouragement could have helped. ..maybe.

Some people are so manic that eventually the voices and stories conjured up in their head take over and it autopilot from there.

Have a friend who invents crap out of whole cloth, swearing no one is helping him. This, as I stand before him doing him the Yugest of favors.

Weird psyche.
