    ​​it is so great watching Robin.....just in awe at his lightning fast comedic brain, and his hilarious physicality. He was such a treasure. Rest in peace Robin. We miss you so much. 😭

    Truly one of the best of the Late NIght. I will never forget when he came after Mr. Letterman's surgery, and you could tell Dave was not back all the way, but Mr. Williams was there with love. Thanks Dave and Paul for your sweet commentary before the clips.

    I remember years ago my family was going to see a movie and this was in the early 80s i was 4 and my two older brothers and mom and dad looking to see some for us to watch it was a family feature that Robert Altman did. It was Popeye it would also be his debut in a movie. I love as he was the perfect Popeye, ever since then Robin Williams has always been my favorite actor. I really do miss him. 😢 Thanks for sharing this as a tribute to him.

    Honestly Dave, I think Robin had the most fun on your show. I think he had a blast getting by with as much as he could past the censors.
    I used to watch the late show almost every night while I was in high school and college. I always looked forward to Robin Williams coming on. He was the funniest person I've ever seen and he was his best when he came on the Letterman Show when he did the night shows. He'd make me laugh until I cried and I couldn't catch my breath. He was my favorite comedian. I cried like a baby when he passed away. He was extraordinary. Bless his soul. There will never be another like him.

      I agree, he always brought his A-game to Letterman, but his appearances on Craig Ferguson's show were something else entirely. Craig has a similar type of bawdy, rapid-fire, pop culture-referencing humor, and watching the two of them go at it for 10 minutes was like being on another planet.

    I'm 55 and feel lucky to have remembered Mork and Mindy. Then his career as a stand-up and incredible actor. What a talent. Very sad how it ended for him, but we're all ending one day. I don't wanna go to a heaven that doesn't have the likes of Robin Williams. No thanks, that's no heaven to me.

    Watching this medley of Robin Williams clips is the equivalent of telling a kid he can eat the entire bucket of Halloween candy. Sounds like a great idea, until you get to the bottom of the bucket, and the candy is all gone, and you end up with a huge tummy ache.
    In other words, a little Robin Williams goes a long way. About a third of the way through this clip, I wanted to shout, "Hey, settle down, man! Relax! You're all over the place. Chill, dude."
