Robin, What Happened?

Thanks to TiVo, these observations are all about a week old:

  • Because I couldn’t sleep last night, I started watching the Robin Williams special that ran on HBO Sunday. Is it just me, or has Robin completely lost it? Other than the AOL Time Warner stock joke at the beginning, he just wasn’t funny. Maybe it was live, and he was nervous or something, but his normal manic style seemed forced and unnatural. He was trying to be spontaneously unsponteneous, and it just sucked. Poor Robin, he was so much funnier when he was coked up.

  • The last episode of The Real World: Chicago sucked. Everyone tried to be forgiving and philosophical which made for crappy TV. The reunion was even lamer. For all the fights and cattiness this season, it sure did fizzle out there at the end.

There, that’s it. It’s back to hell for me. See you when I get released.
