The Crazy Ones......Robin Williams......

[a kennedy]

LOVE IT. so far I mean..... it's snappy, and he's in his element, but not to much, kinda like Good Morning Vietnam.....silly and playing to his strengths, but fits in to a comedy....love it. Anyone else??

2. Fell SOUND asleep (had a busy day).

I can catch it ON DEMAND, I think! I will give it a go, though. I am not a person who refuses an opportunity for a good laugh!

3. Thanks for the reminder about that one

I had heard it was going to be on but forgot.

4. Watched it...

....left me feeling a little 'meh' to be honest...Seems as though he was re-hashing parts of the movie 'RV', which actually had it's funny moments, but it seemed a little forced...I think, given time it could be really good, the scene when he, Travis (I think that was the character's name?) were riffing in the restaurant trying to get Kelly Clarkson to sign up was hysterical, but some of the other banter didn't quite have that same spark..

I have it set to record in the DVR and will see how it goes...

5. Pretty good for a pilot episode ... Williams is terrific

[davidpdx]

6. I did finally get a chance to see it

Funny as hell. I hope the show survives. The networks are so eager to cancel shows these days.

7. Williams is too good for this

Did not like it.

8. The "now" Robin Williams is embarrassing to watch

embarrassed for him.. I wish he had been able to switch to drama as he aged..Comedians have their halcyon years, and most of them keep trying and trying their old schtick with "new crowds".. It rarely works..

Too many comedians blow through the big money they make when they are at the top, and then spend their later years embarrassing themselves and tarnishing their reputations.

The smart ones know when to quit and try a new thing..

9. He said he took the gig for money

He said he was broke because of his divorces. He didn't mention his first divorce was because he knocked up his son's nanny and his second divorce was because of his drinking problem.

11. Oh, Oh...

I hadn't heard that info before. I used to find him hilarious. Not so much now-days, such the pity.

[pengillian101]

12. +1! n/t

[theHandpuppet]

13. A little Robin Williams goes a long way

About 5 minutes' worth is all I can take.

[davidpdx]

10. Just watched episode three

Wasn't as funny as the first two.

[davidpdx]

14. Just finished episode 4

The best part was the burning cardigan in the waste basket and the fireman asking him about his hard-on.

[truebrit71]

15. Funniest part of the show are the outtakes at the end...

..the rest of the show just doesn't seem to 'click' somehow...maybe because everyone is forcing the funny instead of letting it happen naturally...

[davidpdx]

16. The golden quote from this week....

Only Robin Williams can deliver this diatribe with a straight face:

(In a French accent) You know in Europe sex is a good thing, you know? Fraternite, egalite, sexualite, ah?

(In a macho Texas accent) But this is American we like our sex shameful like God intended it to be. That's why Mormons make love staying up because the big guy thinks they're dancing.

17. Love it, some episodes are better then others.....

but it's still a must see for me. you really have to listen though, might miss some of the dialogue. edit for spelling.
