Robin Williams Monologue: Safe Sex - Saturday Night Live 

“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!

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 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

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.

Compare SNL monologues nowadays to the one Robin did on this occasion! It’s like 10 openings for SNL in one! Genius at his best

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?!?!?!? 😁😁😁😁

A visually great bit.

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...

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.

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.

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?

I love what David Letterman said about him when he first saw Robin perform, he said it was like Hurricane Williams!

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 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.

I'm in stitches from this, alone.

Even more

The thing about Robin Williams is the audience had to work to keep up.

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.

He won a Golden Globe on the same night.

SO WAIT A SEC.. HERE I'm all SORTSA HELLA CONFUSED THIS WASN'T SOME LATE NIGHT TALK SHOW HOST JUST ASKING HIM TO COME OUT WITH A HUMDRUM TALKING ABOUT THE AWARDS HE'S RECIEVED AND BEING BORING AS ALL GET OUT EHH.. N/M THIS WAS THE SNL SKIT WITH ROBIN IN/ON IT

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.

But he's here in spirit, helping us thru this trying time!

Same! His comedic timing is so sharp and his humor is so goofy. There will never be another one like him.

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...

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

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 RU-vid, 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!

We do?

That's funny 😂

Indeed!

That and climate change

@@kitcoffey7194 lol 👍🏿

So true and the Angels as well.🤣🤣🤣🤣

In all SNL history, hands down!

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.

+Philipp Kay just GENIUM/

+Philipp Kay wow erection at 0^30/He is beautiful totally!!!

cocaine energy

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.

Agree. The 80's were golden with great music to dance through to the 90's and then BLEAH.

He had training

You must have been so lucky.

You were so lucky.... Sorry you passed out, though

Kushaagra Jain *puts hand on screen, shuts eyes and sheds tears*

True that.

He was very 24 hour non stop

A Brilliant Entrance!

What? It was ok

I just spit my Diet Dr Pepper!
