[@nicholasnaseef1395]

The thing I like about this scene, and other scenes like it from Louie, is that it isn't trying to be deep or grandiose. It's just flatly exploring a concept. "Wow, it's sad that someone's funeral might be sparsely attended. Even if I didn't like the person". Nobody gives a monologue about the importance of human connection, or laments about the horrors of loneliness, or any of that shit. It's just two guys sitting at a diner talking about it. It's very slice of life. It feels real. And as a result it resonates with you in a very deep way. I miss this show.

[@dr.mark.b.hubble]

Well said, and totally agree. This was a great show not just for the laughs, but for scenes like this one. You almost forget it’s two actors in front of a camera, because of the realness they bring to it.

[@Temulon]

"it's sad that someone's funeral might be sparsely attended. Even if I didn't like the person" I don't believe it's sad. I believe that you reap what you sow. Do you want to be well thought of and have a funeral with a high attendance? Stop being a prick.

[@russelesmail]

I’m not sure that Louie wasn’t trying to be deep. Good writing is showing and not telling (no overt themes of loneliness)

[@neXib]

This is why the show was so great, but also why most people don't get it. Same with It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Amazing pilot, and then for many seasons I was puzzled and didn't quite get it, watched it on autopilot, until BAM. Best running comedy on TV for me, and so friggin original.

Yeah, same.

Idk, I might be babbling nonsense here, but the fact remains that his death feels like someone really close to me has passed and I'm still not completely over it.

Depression makes the best comedians

[@jshepard152]

K Parker LaMont-Diumenti - Yup. Crying on the inside.

[@RandomCarrot2806]

I do wonder why. My personal theory is that being depressed makes you an outsider and so you see the world in a different light and that's key for a comedian. The struggle is then to make it humorous of course and have the energy and charisma to perform either on a stage or on film. Finding humor in sadness and tragedy is at the core of great comedy.

[@sofiipote7]

Anders Hansen I think sometimes when you are so depressed you feel you have nothing left, you turn to comedy. Maybe the only thing you can do about how shitty everything is, is laugh at it, make fun of your tragedy, your shitty life and yourself. Of course is not like that for many people, but for some turning depression into comedy might be the only way they can keep living (until, maybe, they feel that they can't continue...)

[@kuroru69]

When nothings more, laugh.

[@spookhyskeleton]

To me, it was shyness that started it. During my whole childhood I was either ignored, set aside, feared, or bullied. In that situation, you keep asking yourself why, why is it that your mere presence brings so much negativity towards the people around you. Then, at my teenage years, I found out about the power of laughter, or, to be more clear, how to make someone *else* laugh. When you tell a joke, or a funny story, or make a pun and you make someone laugh, it's like you're giving them and yourself a single moment of happiness and positivity. Something that makes you forget about the demons that haunt your mind at night. Better yet, it isn't just random, it's something that you can control, something that you can *do.* Something that can bring you closer to the ones you look up to and therefore make you less lonely, less hurt. For once, not only are you liked and popular, but you actually feel happy. That seems all too happy at first, but then, when you go home, all alone, away from your loving crowd, and you realize that the laughter stops, all the demons come back. You never overcame then, you just pushed them away. I saw an quote on that once that really made me think, and I want to share it with you guys too: "If you have a 'funny friend', or a 'class clown', chances are, they had a shitty childhood."

They’re so sincere and contemplative. Once they realize it’s *determinism* that’s troubling them, they might actually smile. _If you blame others You have a long journey to go. If you blame yourself You're halfway there. If you blame nobody You have arrived._ ~ Chinese Proverb

[@SarahC-by4cs]

Where is determinism in the contemplation of loneliness? Even if the actions leading here aren't voluntary that doesn't render the emotion illusory.

[@jenevagreen6874]

its crazy but i can legit see the sadness in Robin's eyes. you can see the depression. so sad

[@d_no_allyn_86]

Wow. That whole episode with them together was genius. So good.

[@michaelfowler3187]

Crying at the sheer sight of robins eyes. He has that way of closing them just enough to know there is pain but gratitude trying to prevail. What a lovey spirit. Missed

[@ssppeellll]

"My ex-wife's brother-in-law." Well, that could potentially be your brother.

[@The13point1]

Steamed Artist some people sometimes refer it the other way.

[@ripdajacker23]

I think he said it that way to disassociate himself a bit due to him knowing how much his brother was disliked but also not sure of how others would perceive him personally because of it.

[@thomasgreen1557]

It could also he his ex wife's sisters husband

[@OurFantasyLife]

Such a subtle detail and I’m glad I wasn’t the only one that caught it.

[@shivasrinivasan80]

@Steamed Artist Sure. But it 'potentially' can be your brother.

[@robertosmith1]

I’ve never seen a single episode of Louie. I suspect I might have missed out and something great.

[@peepysheepy]

Well u can still watch it, it’s not like it’s gone in the ether! It’s such an amazing show I recommend u pay for it it’s so worth ur money

[@mrsoul680]

One of the reasons this is such a great show. Louie is full of scenes like this.

[@Platinum_Tugboat]

I love this. I've always said to my family "When I die, dont go around kissing my ass.. I've had such a crazy life, and I've made a ton of mistakes. Remember me as the whole person, not just the good stuff" This reminds me of that convo lol

[@thegiftedone]

So much pain behind those knowledgeable wisdom gentle eyes.... We love ya Robin

[@auralepiphanies4055]

Rest in Peace Robin Williams...i got to set with him at Zen Center in Haight Ashbury a few years before he died...he was way into his meditation at that point. He was paling around with some of my friends in recovery at the time. He was crazy but at heart a real humanitarian-so is Louie even with his issues.

[@arvaneret_329]

Rest in peace, Robin Williams: a man with such a kind gaze and heart. Thank you for brightening up the world with your uniqueness.

[@OurFantasyLife]

“He was my ex-wife’s brother-in-law.” ....meaning...he was his brother, maybe?

[@LargeLats]

Allow me to help you out with this, friend: the husband of his ex-wife's sister.

[@OurFantasyLife]

@@LargeLats Um...thanks, friend? I'm well aware of how brother in laws work, seeing as how I 've accumulated a couple of my own. What I'm suggesting is it might be a bit more nuanced and tongue in cheek than it appears at first.

[@bigf0ot25]

@@OurFantasyLife im pretty sure he would have just said he was his brother if that was the case.

[@OurFantasyLife]

[@MikeTheRaptor]

I didn’t catch that at first. Good call out, OFL.

[@lovecraftianleviathan8918]

“Barney” in this scene was based on the real-life owner of The Improv, Budd Friedman, who was notorious for not paying his comics. Friedman’s still alive, though. In fact, in 2017, a few years after Robin Williams’ suicide, Friedman released an oral history of his time operating The Improv in which he accused Williams of stealing jokes in his youth at the club.

[@mrimpossible4353]

It's sad to see when Robin died there was nobody at his funeral..rip legend.

[@cgh7337]

My dad (who passed away in the early 00's) looked a lot like Robin Williams. I paused the clip at 0:27 and covered Williams' chin w/ my hand (my dad always had a moustache but never a goatee or a beard) & it looked so much like my dad, it gave me chills. RIP Dad. RIP Robin.

....this scene filmed at THE TIBBETT DINER on Tibbett Avenue in the West Bronx/Kingsbridge sec ion of the Bronx. Other scenes involving the burial were from Woodlawn Cemetery...also in the West Bronx. Love this episode. The scene with everyone in the titty bar crying...priceless.

[@84Victorious]

This was the first episode I ever watched of this show. Stumbled across it one night; RIP Robin Williams

[@mowriter]

It's probably rationalizing, but the idea that someone hated by all was themselves a hurt person, makes the idea of their death all the more tragic. The guy could have been genuinely sociopathic and evil. He could have also had life kick him in the teeth until he decided that was the way things are, so he started kicking back at new victims. Powerful.

[@kylesanders8276]

I miss this show so bad, and really needed to see the plot either be resolved, or spiral deeper into misery. Most shows that depict sadness or depression you can still sense the theatre in them, and they don't carry half the weight that this one did. This show portrayed so well how day to day darkness grows.

[@chrisclarke8600]

You may like After Life with Ricky Gervais then. Similar kinda feel.

[@kylesanders8276]

@@chrisclarke8600 I checked out the trailer and I'll definitely watch it, thanks. Ricky G. is one of the few that can do dark comedy well.

[@jasongodmere9882]

Robin Williams is the most genuine looking person I've ever seen on screen.

[@gking407]

Robin is one of the greats, he taught us humor runs very deep. Adults may think laughter is simple and unserious, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

[@spdutahraptor777]

everything turns into a "favourite moment" when Robin is around
