time

that thing put that away, well, that was an amazing interview with Muhammad Ali, did you like that King was here? Aegis, darling. I just said in the back room Oh Howard hmm, they're kind of a cult figure in LA as a lot of people follow you around while you're doing it, but he has the same kind of thing, they said I was a little bit more great, I think not, no, but I mean that there are people who like him as a fighter, but there are also people who appreciate his humor and his charisma, you know, there are people who understand that he is sure that it was wonderful, it was great to see. just talking about his everyday life, talking about this Superman is your best friend, all that sounds weird, but Superman is your best friend, he's not the best, but for clothes, yeah, that way, alarm images at the National Enquirer, there were those words, um, tight, yeah, Christopher Reeve, so.

Hausman, who was John's husband, yes, he was, he was a director, ah, you look at me like I once again knew he was wrong, even though he was thinking to myself. I read, I read something about you and him going. to be Shakespearean actors, yes, we were both training to be a question before we finished, ah, he took the right course, look what I'm doing, my parents keep moving and changing direction so, he's Robin, you make a, you make a performing live because, to quote or something, it helps you keep your sanity and even though you're a big star now you like to work in all these little places like opposition venues where you can do comedy, you had to keep performing live, yeah, that keeps me going.

I live I simply give more weight to things at the same time yes, just maintaining contact with people is very important because if you didn't know, if you die you are no longer at risk for me, that is very important, do you think that television is suffocating. I mean being on a show like that. I mean, it's really fun. You seem to do creative things. Not me, you do improvised things. We are about a third of the improvisers on the show. We play mmm and work on different things, especially if the script needs it. help, let me know, give it like five minutes ago, give it to the child, yes, a different object, he will play with it, okay, now you do it, you mean, you just take objects and play with them, certain things, yes, we represent, yes, from the object, yes, look.

Complicated American, what happens to you when there must be a big difference between the old days, which was what it was a year ago? or something like that years ago and now the reaction of the people to you on the streets I think are nice people, very nice, the only term that scared me was when I was once surrounded by about 150 people, small children and a game of baseball, yes, and that's good, you have to do it. go through them another one that was very scary every enemy Winkle was honest Henry Whitman was on his show and he was adamant about losing Fonzie's identification with himself because he feels that as an actor he wouldn't, does that worry you with Mork? they approach you as a higher quality approach, it was a yes, most, I mean, you can't blame especially the children because it's social, especially the words and stuff mmm I can't escape, yes, be very cruel, no , that's why I also have the I acted and I also did other things and other characters, so just for my own sanity, that's what I meant by keeping my sanity so you don't get caught doing that and usually you do it like the big move for everyone and in The Business is that when you become popular you do all these big talk shows in America and I understand they told me today that this is the
