[@bobsacamano1274]

The sweetest guy by all accounts. RIP Gary. You are missed.

[@arthadude]

"My brother had asthma." This is a rare reference to his brother, Barry, who died of cystic fibrosis when Garry was 10.

[@byronm1919]

She's a flight attendant for FedEx killed me.

[@Airestotle09]

Underrated. He should be mentioned with the Robin Williams, George Carlins, Richard Pryors etc.

[@jfweimar]

George Carlin is responsible for Gary's start. He gave advice reading his 1st script.

[@ant1slam]

You're insane, he's nowhere near their league

[@KRFauster]

"...maybe take a few fast ones, maybe hit a couple back..." Brilliant.

[@charlesdidonato5478]

He is just so funny no matter what the subject matter! 😂

[@moss8448]

took the keyboard right outta my mouth

[@judz8535]

I see Garry, I click.

[@js2010ish]

Amen

[@shitheadbabygirl]

It's hard to think of who would be able to replicate such a performance, best delivery of those jokes. Such a loss to the comedic world

[@johnwpmusic]

The Daylight Savings joke has been ripped off by somebody else

[@LlyleHunter]

He probably wrote it for them. He was a professional comedy writer. He started out as Joan Rivers’ Chief writer

[@scottnowell4975]

Great stuff. Some the audience don't quite get

[@ant1slam]

He's a loser, Yo

[@steveconn]

A bit of that meta he did on The Gary Shandling Show.

[@bainsey89]

"I'm sure!!!" There's a lost phrase.

[@janrogerhenden8264]

Right. I'll bet. :D

[@ralfjones6135]

Doing a monologue about what monologue to do

[@DenkyManner]

Yeah, but he did just reframe his normal stand up routine.

[@ant1slam]

Yeah it's too meta for words and even rips off his old it's Gary Shandlings show

[@stevebaker4891]

It was on the day you push the clocks ahead ; )

[@tomitstube]

during the 2nd season of "it's garry shandling show", where he breaks the 4th wall constantly.

[@WTFG78]

Would love to see the sketch that follows this- it’s the continuation of his breaking of the 4th wall, and features the brilliant Jan Hooks and Phil Hartman.

[@js2010ish]

Sounds hilarious!

[@UT1338]

Yes, the sketch is hilarious. Not only does he break the 4th wall, but the other actors in the skit don't know that he is about to break the 4th wall, they don't understand it, and they are very upset with him. Truly breaking the 4th wall, and truly hilarious.

[@Obiter3]

Never seen a monologue quite like that since.

[@MattySadler]

Hey now!

[@ae5596]

BRILLIANT!

[@vitalikshu]

RIP

[@tomwood4068]

When Gary said he was making love, I had to think a moment about what that means.

[@mmc5916]

I cant remember.

[@countrydj2]

Thinking of Garry on the 5th anniversary of his death. Wish I could have met him.

[@charliebruns2687]

He was so funny

[@DavidLLambertmobile]

We were both born on 11/29. Lol!

[@dixonpinfold2582]

"Just look at the dogs in the front yard." Ok mom, thanks.

[@jamesc907]

I only just found out who he was tonight I wish I knew him before he died. RIP Garry

[@eraldylli]

So, watched The Larry Sanders show yet? I love Garry, but I had to stop around season 6 or so. Probably will get back to it, eventually.

[@CarmineMarie]

where did you watch it? i really wanna watch can you please tell

[@VyasPsathyan]

Erald Ylli there are only 6 seasons of that show. But really good 6 seasons

[@spunz83ify]

I know how you feel. I knew about george carlin from the news of his demise.

[@jimmyferris]

I loved the Garry Shandling show

[@jaykapolka6111]

That suit is so timeless I can't even tell what decade this is 😆

[@jaykapolka6111]

@BC BC that wasn't exactly the time of Clapton but I can see some Devo in that suit LOL

[@malosb7887]

The 80’s and its shoulders! Kkkkkk Evem T-shirts had shoulders like that.

[@tomitstube]

i think he got this fashion tip from arsenio, who probably should have told him to not wear it all day before doing the monologue.

[@sstills951]

Jay Leno used to wear suits like that on Carson or Letterman in the 80s

[@ant1slam]

Shandlings is pretty lame, Yo

[@becausewemust]

Thank you Garry

[@happybirthday146]

:) Whoa, he was saying "It's a whole thing" back then.

[@DenkyManner]

"Do I really want to do a monologue?" "I really don't care, son." It's mostly in the delivery. The jokes are good but they must be sold in a certain way.

[@NxDoyle]

Garry could and did do either. He wrote plenty of jokes that are great on paper.

[@gilbertfensler6944]

Yes most definitely the joke sound better on paper

[@peterbland7227]

I love the way he likes to break the fourth wall.

[@thegiftedone]

An absolute legend! By the way, the crowd sucked! …….

[@brunocastro9577]

I miss him, no question was a people with the capacity of change us. I stay in here, Brazil, and don't have humorist so good. I know an arabic humorist, i laugh and I had so much fun, he talked about how Bush was responsible for the American tragedy.

[@christopherallen9580]

Shandling is Duchovny's brother

[@GaryPhelpsII]

Didn’t know he did SNL.

[@debv1578]

Ha Ha! 350k for a house was like a million dollar house today.

[@Obiter3]

Good lord look at those shoulder pads. The 80s were ridiculous.

[@christopherallen9580]

i miss the 80s

[@dc1397]

Hail Hydra.

[@matteop3870]

Only 23K views, just shameful.

[@Dee-ue1rq]

if he was funny it might be different

[@commonwunder]

Garry Shandling and John de Lancie... were brothers separated at birth.

[@frankbutler9512]

For $350K, that "view". lol Awesome.

[@jatigre1]

It's just another "It's the Garry Shandling Show sketch".

[@jshepard152]

2:17 New girl

[@brunocastro9577]

Brazilian is funny but North American is good too. I like Buddhist culture, I believe in behavior change especially in Mayana Buddhism

[@TNT-km2eg]

This guy is all about me , me , me ... but what about me ? And fa , so , la , ti , do ...

[@DavidLLambertmobile]

GS's 1980s comedy 🎙 & delivery is a lot like Ellen Degeneres.

[@davidmende4438]

All my friends are dead.

[@MTKarthik]

The first unmonologue

[@juansintierra6415]

Got Milk

[@user-co8uy5rb2s]

Hail Hydra!

[@MapleSyrupPoet]

SNL mainstage ...make any performer nervous ...deep breaths ...I remember the play, I was in ...deep breaths, before curtain time ...very exciting ...easy to get addicted to ...the, "Fix" of the stage :)))

[@johnwpmusic]

Lorne Michaels wanted to make Gary host of the Tonight Show originally.

[@adimikulic]

Dead crowd

[@ania5038]

So basically Jerry Seinfeld is a copy of him and Larry David

[@sclogse1]

No. Jerry has different and different style material. And you seem to forget a few years of show scripts.

[@ania5038]

@@sclogse1 Larry David's scripts you mean?

[@js2010ish]

Garry maybe tried to bunch a bit too much routine into the monologue, but a few of jokes started to land in the middle. I wish he had made a stronger narrative (about whether to monologue) and less neurotic rambling, but we would have none of GS's work without that neuroses.

[@johnwpmusic]

I mean at least he is a professional with content. How many times has SNL had a host on that is a one hit wonder or known for 1 single thing they did on television and has to run the whole 5 minutes just talking about Hamilton?

[@janrogerhenden8264]

The Apatow book is great, a great insight into Shandling. You'll see all the neurosis and whatnot.

[@moebetta4224]

Not his best work.

[@ExquisiteIdea]

Since when a SNL monologue has to be the best work of a comedian? That would actually be a red flag for any performer ...

[@moebetta4224]

Man, I don't miss that goofy clothing style.

[@zebontheweb]

$350,000 for a house? He’s complaining??? Not to mention, wages have barely increased since this.
