Gotta go watch Hook and Mrs Doubtfire now. Goes to show you that even though someone who can bring happiness to millions of people around the world can still suffer from depression and sadness themselves.

I'm so incredibly sad right now. I've been watching him since he first appeared on Happy Days as Mork. I used to watch every episode of Mork and Mindy. My mother didn't really want me watching it because she only knew his stand-up act, which was waaaay too adult for me. After a few episodes, she realized he was actually a very talented comedian and decided it was ok for me to watch. I was always a huge fan because he seemed so spastic, like me. He'd be talking about one thing, then go off on some crazy tangent replete with sound effects... just like me.



I didn't know you Robin, but I really wish I had.



Goodbye friend.

He's one of those actors that was truly iconic and can never be compared to anyone else. There's not many people in his profession that has that much of an impact on other peoples lives. RIP

So sad. According news reports, he hung himself and slit both of his wrists. He must have been going through something horrible mentally.
