Robin’s death hit me super mega hard. It’s one of those “I remember where I was when” moments. I was in my room & it came on my phone that he died & I ran outside to my parents, on the pool deck and said “you won’t believe it, Robin Williams died”. Very sad because he was my #1 bonified favourite comedian, actor & entertainer. I CAN NOT watch Patch Adams or Mrs. Doubtfire without learning something new every time.

I have followed most of the comics on this list from the time that I was in kindergarden during the early 80s and they were all super awesome for sure. I remember John Ritter in the IT mini series and how well he was in that along with being a sadistic uncle who was a police cheif in the 4th Chucky film, The Bride of Chucky and seeing both John Ritter and Gilbert Gottfried in the 2nd Problem Child film in 1992. However, Robin Williams will always be my favorite for both drama and comedy and it is too bad that no one knew what he truly had until after his death 8yrs ago. And, Robin Harris and George Carlin should both be on this list for sure.

[@christhornycroft3686]

I’d put George Carlin on the list. The guy was 72, but he could have lived to 100 and it wouldn’t have been long enough. Like Bill Hicks and Lenny Bruce, he just told the truth. He didn’t BS his audience just to get a laugh. And half of their material would be banned today.

Not only was he a great comedian, but he called out people that needed to be made fun of. If you listen to him now days, his comedy still seems relevant and modern.

God knew when enough had happened to Robin Williams, and I’d have many memories of Robin. It’s too bad you didn’t enjoy enough of what he did to entertain anybody before he died. It’s not that I don’t care what people say when they say they want a dead person back. I understand why those people say that, but it wouldn’t be any use bringing anyone back from the dead because what more would be worth happening to them regarding safety?

Danitra Vance, also an SNL member. So little of her work is on KZbin, but if you ever get to see her explanation of Shakespeare, it is genius.

Bernie Mac was my favorite comedian. His stand up special was hilarious!
