Robin Williams: Live on Broadway (2002)

It was disappointing to hear the F*** word every fifty or sixty seconds, or more. What's Robin's problem? Does he think that he needs to cuss, cuss, cuss to be funny? It would have been a lot more funny if he didn't say that word or a variation of it all the time. It's like he had a bet to see how many times he could say it. I'm just a normal, beer drinkin' American, but I didn't find it amusing. I didn't even finish watching the whole thing. Maybe I would have liked it more back when I was a teenager or something. He is one of my favorite actors and I really like a lot of the movies and other things that he has done, but then it was disappointing to watch this and wonder "Where is that nice, respectable, funny guy that was in the movies that I saw before?"

This show is so funny I couldn't stop laughing and was literally rolling on the floor laughing so hard I was crying. Look for the bits on golf and colonoscopies!! You will literally die laughing when seeing this and want to watch it over and over and over! This is Robin Williams at his uncensored stream-of-consciousness best. The issues he tackles are still funny 4 years later. If there are any golf lovers in your family, make sure they see this stand-up act. Same goes if anyone has ever had a colonoscopy. He comments on pop culture "Jane Fonda and Ted Turner broke up. Jane discovered God and Ted discovered it wasn't him."

...you don't like comedy. This is probably Williams' finest. It far exceeded my expectations. He was lively, animated, manic in his expression. You can tell he has fun with it. It's not just work for him. You can tell he's done a lot of preparation work to prepare a huge routine like that. That's a big part of my appreciation for this. Anyone can be funny, but when you're consistently funny is when you deserve to be at the top. All comedy is offensive to somebody. Robin Williams goes way over the top, but he gets away with it because he recovers and continues in another direction, surprising you. He is a very daring man and extremely funny. I highly recommend this.

without a debut, this is so of the best stuff robin has EVER done. it just goes to show that standup is still in his blood and that he can still do standup with the best of them. if you need a good laugh, or you want to be on the floor rolling in laughter, this is the best way to make that happen.
