I watched an HBO standup of Robin one time, looking forward to many laughs. But he over loaded his shtick with F-this and F-that so much, I switched channels.

I never understood why such a naturally funny man had to resort to the kind of vulgarity he used I his stand up. I think I saw three minutes of his stand up once and never saw another. I did adore Mork though and really enjoyed his dramatic films. Groucho Marx, of all people, once said that a ‘real’ comedian didn’t have to resort to blue humor to make people laugh. Robin was a real comedian...I’m sorry he resorted to that kind of stuff.
