I'm right there with ya, even Lovitz couldn't ruin it for me. Check out The Larry Sanders Show if you didn't already, that's where Paul Simms started out. Some of the dynamics are very similar.
Possibly because Farley was way more involved in films and had worldwide fame by the time he died I only remember Hartman in jingle all the way with Schwarzenegger
@@jonathanhamilton2437 Phil would have eventually have found a film role that would have made him huge. Something with Ferrell or Stiller or someone like that. He was too talented not to make it big at some point. The moral of the story is that if you're in a marriage from hell run for the hills if you can.
@Jeff Royer some people lost their jobs and are home day drinking their life away. Work is a bitch now tbh. I know construction never stopped but it made ur day easier because less traffic. For us medical and dental workers its a bitch rn. Even worse when people lie about if they have flu like symptoms. Stay safe out there stranger, always count your blessings
Back in my helo-flying days, we had an aerial gunner who was so goddamned hairy, his nickname was "Kierock, Unfrozen Caveman Gunner". Dude looked like a werewolf, it was crazy....
Phil was so essential to SNL. I was surprised when he left for a supporting role in a sitcom that not many people were watching. Seemed like a bigger star, but what Joe said makes perfect sense.
He was great in west wing. A show with a beginning middle and end. The last season is weird because it doesn't follow characters you came in with at all really
Phil Hartman==comedic genius. I believe that there is/was toxic work environment, but I loved his skits with Jan Hooks. I can't believe that they were toxic to each other, the results were so funny.
@@gabrielfallon8629 Him trying to shove that knife back into his bosses neck is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. And Jennifer Tilly back then... wow!
That’s actually how Mike Myers developed the voice and some of the characteristics of Dr. Evil, he got it from Dana Carvey’s impression of Lorne Michaels. There is an interview that Dana did on Howard Stern (a clip of it is on UA-cam). IIRC, Dana was being sort of modest about the whole thing, and Howard seems be trying to draw it out of Dana to say that Mike actually stole it from Dana, but Dana doesn’t quite go there. So yeah, fun fact there!
Jeff Goldblum: The offers are rolling in, Paramount wants you for a buddy comedy with Rob Lowe and Hugh Grant Troy McClure: THOSE SICK FREAKS?!? That’s one of my favorite Simpson episodes lol RIP Phil Hartman
Cameron Cash Hopkins I think the story is his wife was addicted but recovering. Andy Dick gave her cocaine at a party and she got hooked again. This eventually led to Hartman’s demise. Years later Jon Lovitz who was a good friend of Hartman’s beat the crap out of Andy Dick at a comedy club.
Cameron Cash Hopkins Cocaine does cause paranoia and hallucinations which can result in violent behavior. However, most people don’t kill their spouse while under the influence. His wife sounded like someone that was unstable. When you add cocaine to the mix I’m sure it made it worse. Not choosing anyone’s side here but Phil Hartman’s. Grew up watching him and it makes me sad that he was taken way too soon in a really tragic way.
Katia Lastovkina they actually had it worked out in advance: the idea was to base it on complete douchebag morning DJ’s who drag out syllables. Which is perfect. Billy West openly admits it’s basically his impression of what Phil would have done (yes, in a tribute sense), which I can appreciate, but it’s simply still not Phil. Different person, different energy.
Actually goes deeper than that. Also why Fry's name is Philip. geektyrant.com/news/10-cartoon-voices-that-are-actually-impressions-of-other-actors-ergt
Dan Anderson he’s a fantastic voice actor no doubt. But I always felt like he did too many of them. One guy being too many characters. I’ll never be able to help feeling the show fell a little short because of it.
I remember suddenly wondering why Phil was gone in the 5th season of News Radio. I was in love with that sitcom. The first episode of the fifth was the one I downloaded last. I finally saw it, and since the show could be very dark and mean, it took a while to realize it was an unusual way of writing someone out of the series, even for this show, especially since I deem it the best ensemble cast I've ever seen. Was Phil not only leaving but so unhappy even he didn't even want to stay for a farewell episode? An eery grimmess took hold of me, did he die in the series because he died? He didn't play a warm guy in the series so why writing such a sad, touching and heartfelt episode? Finding out what happened shocked me. No sadness, just pure shock. I used to bingewatch the show almost daily in a loop for a long, long time, so it fucked up my whole routine, staring at my monitor, my cursor hovering over the file. Could I ever enjoy the series again? A couple of weeks passed like that before I did what had to be done, watch the 1st of the 5th again. To this day, when I have the heart to see it, I cry several times, especially when Bill's card reads to Matthew "I am really dead". Acting can be difficult, but what that cast did in the entire 5th is nothing short of other worldly. Apart from Jon Lovitz, who really didn't fit in to put it nicely, they did an amazing job. Especially Andy Dick, because Phil was like a father to him. I'd insert a joke here but I can't. It is what it is. RIP Phil, bless his children, their caretakers being Phil's wife's sister and her husband (I can't imagine how they must have felt), bless the cast and crew who gave him his excellent last years in comedy and I hope someday I can forgive his wife.
My favorite Phil Hartman on News Radio was when they got the Radio Ratings report and they said Bill McNeils reporting was "adequate". And he walked around acting like it was a glowing rating. I used to quote that line all the time where he walks into the bathroom and Dave says to him something like, feeling adequate Bill, and Bill says "I'm practically bursting with atequatulence". And Dave is like, "that's not a word Bill" and Bill says, "don't care my friend".
Divide and conquer is strong with this one. Get rid of the Dems and Repubs. Get some more political parties or better yet, get rid of money from politics.
What an interesting , funny , genuinely likeable guy... What stories he could tell.. Just the cast of " The Outsiders " was amazing... Lowe , Swayze, Cruise, Dillon, Estevez , etc...whoa.
God I miss Phil Hartman From News Radio: Jimmy James: Hold it, Bill. I've heard Penthouse letters that were more plausible than this. Bill: So have I. But the fact is the woman wanted me, and the fact that she couldn't have me made her insane with what the great poets have called "manimal lust."
Growing up I always wondered why his characters disappeared from The Simpsons, it wasn’t until like a decade later I found out why. He was hilarious. RIP Phil.
I enjoy the way rob speaks of things, he is very aware of self and others and others to self. this is a proper self reflection with intent of doing better \m/ hats off good lessons to share
I worked on News Radio in post production. I got to see every frame of film from four cameras for at least three seasons. They shot triple the film that they needed because they wouldn’t stop camera. They’d yell, “back to one!” and did a take over and over. The days I worked on that show were the absolute best.
This segment was not weird for ME when Joe & Rob were talkin' about what goes on behind the scenes at SNL because I recently read "Wired," the 1984 biography of John Belushi written by Bob Woodward, which explains a lot about the writin' & rehearsal processes durin' the week as well as all the backstabin' & the sexual relationships between cast members & all the drugs & booze that was allowed on the scene in the early days. That book was a very in-depth read into the life & workin' conditions of John.
This is how I found JRE to be honest. I loved Phil Hartman and Newsradio. I also love Dave Foley. So seeing videos on my feed about Phil Hartman made me watch it. Shortly after I saw JRE clips about Patrice O'neal. I was I like "oh shit I forgot about his comedian. Joe Rogan you crazy"
Except for Lovitz, that ensemble cast was and still is the best I ever saw, they were born for eachother from the 1st ep onwards. Every interaction between any of them was perfection. Never saw anything like it since.
His name was Key Rock and he was thawed out by our scientists. Somehow miraculously he became... Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer. One of the greatest SNL sketches ever. So f-ing hilarious.
I never watched SNL until after I was married because I was never home at 11:30 on a saturday night, so I totally missed the first 3 or 4 seasons - I knew who they were from reading about them
Rob Lowe is awesome and looks unbelievably good and not all that different than he did almost 40 yrs ago. That dude was the biggest koochie magnet in Hollywood in the 80s and totally got framed for those two girls in 1988 at the Dukakis Democratic convention, and NO ONE in Hollywood stood up for him. Sleeping with 2 17 yr old girls that said they were older when he was all of 23/24 himself. Total BS they made into a huge thing and temporally shut his career down. Watch Bad Influence with Rob and James Spader, 1990/91. Great movie nobody ever talks about. Rob's a good dude and was The Dude!
I actually really enjoyed listening to that, even if it seems "unrelatable" to some people. I like hearing behind the scenes stories about my favourite shows and movies because I'm fascinated to learn what the creators, actors, crew, etc. experienced on set and how they feel about the content they've made and put out into the world. I don't know, maybe that's just me though lol.
Hartman was the man! Quite possibly the funniest and smartest comedic actor. He was clever and had great timing. He also was quite a good writer and was gifted with a great voice. He was taken away from us far too soon! 😞
Jair Kerker Yes! I’ve seen it. And I knew he did some art work early in his career. Shows what a renaissance man he was. I also used to love when he used to go on Letterman as stylized characters. He was one of a kind!
Met one of the head writers for the Simpsons once, and he said Phil Hartman delivered his favorite joke of the series. "Hi, I'm Troy Mcure, and you may remember me from such educational programs as "P" is for psycho."
Rob Lowe is a really likable guy. So self aware.
News Radio is still one of my favorite sitcoms of all time, and Phil Hartman is a huge reason why. R.I.P. Phil, you were a comic genius!
I'm right there with ya, even Lovitz couldn't ruin it for me.
Check out The Larry Sanders Show if you didn't already, that's where Paul Simms started out. Some of the dynamics are very similar.
I literally own the entire first season and I have never opened it. I think I might.
Bee Network it was posting multi episodes streams on UA-cam.
RIP Phil Hartman comedy absolute legend a voice like no other
Loving how self-aware Rob Lowe is about his celebrity detachment from society.
Yes good awareness
@Darmok cast that stone.
Ikr such a brave soul.
Doug Hilton cast what stone? Dude should have gone to prison. You're a moron
@Dr. Richard D. Stiff That's what I was thinking, but there is no star. I'm from Houston. Never seen a hat like that here.
Hands down, Phil Hartman, SNL LEGEND. Amazingly talented comedian.
I think as we get older and given the shift in mainstream culture, we need Phil to remember the better times. I love him so much.
Phil Hartman and the tragedy of his death is so undermentioned. I mean compared to like Chris Farley. I felt way more sad about Phil.
Possibly because Farley was way more involved in films and had worldwide fame by the time he died I only remember Hartman in jingle all the way with Schwarzenegger
It was a rough two years. And the precursor of John Candy a few years prior didnt help.

Phil Hartman was one of the best SNL was even a greatest show at all the charisma and don't forget the very comical explosive chemistry
"Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, I'm just a caveman...Your world frightens and confuses me."
Classic skit

Rob is still killin it.
I was just thinking this.
This dude really stayed the course.
He was great in west wing. A show with a beginning middle and end. The last season is weird because it doesn't follow characters you came in with at all really
The current audiences find it hard to believe that he was one of the Hollywood "bad boys" back in the day long with Robert Downey Jr.
Phil Hartman==comedic genius. I believe that there is/was toxic work environment, but I loved his skits with Jan Hooks. I can't believe that they were toxic to each other, the results were so funny.
rob lowe could have easily been an snl cast member. His comedic skills in waynes world and austin powers proved it
Don’t forget how funny he was in Parks and Recreation.
.. and Tommy boy.
His episodes actually hosting SNL proved it to me. Look up him doing Shaggy from Scooby Doo. Shit is hilarious...not to mention Arsenio Beckman.
As one of the biggest NewsRadio fans alive, I will never pass up a chance to hear Joe talk about Phil Hartman.
Then we could share a TV.

Rob always has the best stories to tell! Come here, chicken legs! LOL!
