Yeah, I recommended this the other day. If you want to see that late-career Williams could still be fucking hilarious, this is the resource.

But that's the thing, the only thing Williams worked despite was addiction. The depression set in due to his open heart surgery in 2009, and I'm sure was exacerbated by the diagnosis. He was on his way out. This is changed from "tragic decision for which he should have gotten help instead" to "right to life and…

The really weird thing is that they played his Fresh Air interview from around 2000, and Terry Gross asked him point blank about clinical depression. His answer was a flat no, and this was in an interview where he talked about his addictions and other personal items, which he was never shy about. There was no reason…

I hate to say it, but doesn't hanging count under that definition? He strikes me as the hanging type, somehow.

What does asphyxiasion mean, exactly? Like a gas oven?

Eh, actors play characters who die all the time, which has nothing to do with their personal deaths unless there are eerie parallels. I just don't see those here. He dies in World According to Garp too.

Except his was an accidental death in that film. His wife committed suicide.

Interesting… That's at his peak, professionally. Listen to it, and he says he's in the middle of making Toys. He was just between Aladdin and Mrs. Doubtfire, and still had The Birdcage and Jumanji and in his future, but Toys was the first glimpse of what late-career Williams would look like. By the end of the…

Just rewatched a bit of the fourth season after a long break. It's just so all over the place. It never coheres into a solid comedic world.

Hell, do the books and stage shows if you're really feeling ambitious. The books are usually completely overlooked, and they're pretty great.

I see no reason you couldn't return to it next year. Why not Monty Python ancillary? German shows, records, four movies, Fawlty Towers, Ripping Yarns, throw in Time Bandits, Erik the Viking, Jabberwocky and if time permits (which it probably won't), go back to At Last the 1948 Show and Do Not Adjust Your Set. …

Two words: Planet of the Apes.

Seriously? This your first trip to the internet, is it?

Just last night, I watched Monty Python Conquers America. It's not surprising that Cleese bolted from the group. He seemed to have made a habit of separating himself while the rest of them got on like family. Shame that (arguably) the most irreplaceable member was the biggest drip personally.

Comment wasn't really directed at you specifically, Idiotking.

And Roger Ebert was only too well acquainted with the staff at Dunkin Doughnuts.

Is it too beside the point to mention that Mel Gibson was (probably) neither drunk nor in a blind rage when he funded, directed and released an entire feature film implying that said minority was responsible for murdering humanity's savior?

My girlfriend and I are determined to someday make a trailer for a Muppet version of Cabaret. Fozzie is the emcee, Kermit is Brian Roberts and naturally, Piggy is Sally Bowles. We figure the young Jewish couple is Gonzo and a chicken and Sam the Eagle starts the song "Tomorrow Belongs to Me". Maybe the rich…

What about the records? Somehow the Python's astonishing audio output always seems to slip people's minds. Is it too far afield to cook up a few hundred words on the albums?

That's because nobody likes you.
