  • they both cant speak very good russian

  • robin williams... he alone took more time to intervieuw then the complete simpsons crew xDD

    there's just no stopping him!!

  • Brilliant!

  • Very enjoyable! Thank you so much for sharing this with us on YouTube.

  • Okay. It was hard to watch this because all you hear through every fucking part is that fat woman laughing so fucking loud and high pitched. So bloody obnoxious. But Robin Williams is just amazing.

  • Couldn't stop watching from the first one

  • @ThinkerHatNeeded its a james lipton show where he brings famous actors/actress in front of mainly college student who are in acting clubs or what not

  • is this a school or collage? I thought it was just a talk show

  • There is no one like Robin, he is extremely talented very funny!!!!!!!!!

  • Absolute genius

  • Robin Williams is simply brilliant.

  • This man is an incredible actor oh my world I loove his movies

  • You think he remembers all the Russian from "Moscow on the Hudson" about 20 years before this appearance (early 2000s).

  • Had to watch all of this was so hooked the first one on...what he says about creative endorphins is so right. I started watching Robin in Mork and Mindy and remember laughing so hard, like the girl in the audience he keeps referring to. I was a substitute teacher for 6 years and used improv to get closer to the students. One kid asked if I had ever tried stand-up comedy, and i said bada bing! Robin Williams helped me do that.

  • Watched Part 1 cause I thought "Hmm, I need a good giggle, and RW is the man for that"...Well...didnt quite expect to drop everything and watch the Entire 14 parts in one sitting, but it was worth every second!

  • @Kynlos Agreed.

  • 4:29... Nosferatu?

  • @DonRMB OMG..... YES !!!!

  • standup tragedy.... this guy is incredible!!

  • Thank You Robin Williams, you made my bad week into a good week. I laughed my ass off watching you. I really hope Robin Williams does another one of these!

  • 8 people were laughing so hard they accidently hit the dislike button!!!

  • @liverlad06 Good one ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. I was laughing so hard at what you wrote I almost pushed the dislike button lol lol lol lol lol lol.

  • I was having such a horrible week and then I happened upon this series of videos... not looking so bad now!

  • thank you, figureskatingfan for all of this wonderful interview with Robin Williams!!

  • Love him! thansk for uploading <3

  • This is brilliant!!!!

  • best interview i have ever seen love Robin!!!

  • There are two comedians I actually like to watch/l;isten to; Robin Williams and Billy Connolly. Robin uses his head and talent throughout his shows, and Billy uses life's experience to tell his stories and make them so funny that they wouldn't sound funny coming from anyone else. Both legends.

  • I would have this man's babies ,, if it weren't so weird and gay and just wrong

  • The girl in 1:57 asking the question, im pretty sure is one of the main actresses in the ABC show "What would you do?" She looks just like that actress in that show.

  • You learn so much from watching him.

  • "If you are going to be a method actor, please give me a moment to prepare."

  • damn. i was ready to stand in front of my monitor and clap at the end.

  • I have watched this a couple of times already and I will keep on watching again, Robin is never a bore. He is the best, a genius and a natural!!!

  • this IS the funniest guy I've EVER listened to. I cab watch him ANYTIME and laugh no matter what he says. I can't do that w/any other comedian even the other greats.

    during this particular interview with James Lipton I was laughing So hard I had to pause it several times just so the the muscles at the top of my stomach could rest. it actually hurt from laughing so much & so hard. I like his standup way more than his movies. I guess I just like to laugh and he does it for me hands down.

  • Did somebody count how many characters he does during this? If you did, let me know; I lost count

  • It's now 5:30AM and I don't know when I started watching and don't care.

  • @CptKrnch Weird same here!

  • "You have the best laugh"

  • pretty sure this is the longest inside the actors studio lol didnt expect there to be 14 parts when i started watching. but i dont do half things dammit!!

  • 7 people must have hit the dislike button by acident

  • 7 people dont know great comedy.

  • Great man.

  • One word...LEGEND

  • Wait, did they sensor "turd"? What the hell?

  • I love how Lipton's clothing source was in the credits.

  • @Robmeistah13 Get a life.

  • spent my day watching exclusively robin williams. i've gained a lot more respect for him since. incredible man.

  • how did the interviewer not laugh the entire series? i rofled many times

  • Dang Robin Williams is fluent in French and Russian it seems!

  • @zinpgh He learned Russian for the flick, Moscow on the Hudson. Jonathan Winters speaks German, French, Spanish and Italian that I have noticed to date; he is the greatest improv artist of all time and was Williams' inspiration and mentor. Most great mimics have the ability to learn languages quickly too, since that is simply patterned mimicry, so most improve comics can at least do a variety of accents. I would bet that Williams knows one or two other languages, too, like Spanish maybe.

  • @KaptKan1 Cool! Williams is the best.

  • @KaptKan1 He seems to know Yiddish quite well.

  • @zinpgh And Yiddish and Spanish and American Sign Language. Amazing.

  • @zinpgh French - yes, Russian - I don't think so.lol.

  • @zinpgh I speak Russian and I can tell you he's not. 

  • First off, I want to thank you so much for uploading all these clips of Inside the Actor's Studio with exclusively, Robin Williams, great man for such a great show. After I watched all the clips, I literally took a hit from him; he inspires so many with his brilliant reactions to the nakedness of our world. As I'm learning more of Acting, day by day with more passion into each moment, I absorbed so much from Robin Williams. He has taught me more detail of the real art behind Portrayal...Acting!!

  • I simply adore Robin Williams! Whatched the 14 parts and wanted 20 more!!!! He is a genius not only of comedy but s a whole artist, cause he performs drama as well and how fantastically well!!! I've seem all his movies and consider myself so privileged! Thank you Mr. Williams to make my life so much enjoyable with the perfection of your art!

  • He's lost a lot of hair.

  • @itubeutude It happens as we age. You're next.

  • i honestly hopped that goes on forever cuz id never get tired from Robin Williams hes just amazing . this interview just made my day !! thank you Robin :)

  • wow the guy at 4:24 just wow he's like the BFG

  • That second woman who asked the question about the risk is clearly NOT an actress.

  • Amazing human being! Thank you for the upload, it was hilarious and interesting!

  • Without a doubt one of the most entertaining people on the face of the earth. This thing was pure genius!

  • This show must've taken hours and hours to take, and I bet the people that were there were hoping for it to last even longer. Man that guy is a genius..

  • truely one of the greatest actors of all time

  • that stand up tragedy thing had me crying man

  • I've been a fan since 'Mork & Mindy' and "Reality...What A Concept..." To sound like a contradiction in terms...with Robin, there is sanity...Thank you for posting this episode. It is one of the best.

  • thank you very much for uploading!  it was fantastic!

  • Thank you for posting this series

  • I was always wondering how many of these students actors/directors eventually made it ? never heard about the fat lady and Lurch

  • I adore Robin, he's the whole package.

    I don't mean to sound like a hater, but the guy at 4:25 made me jump.

  • PFFFT i missed part 10 because of wmg bunch of ass hats but this was epic !! i love Robin <3

  • @rancorx

    It's up now. :)

  • @TheCastellan D: i cant find it link please ?

  • Thumbs up if you watched the whole series!

  • @ahtartersauce101 How could you NOT watch the whole series?

  • @ahtartersauce101

    Fuck yeah!

    

  • @ahtartersauce101 I not only watched, I 'liked' them all.

  • @ahtartersauce101 you sit there with your comment as if people had a choice to watch only part of this. I am about to go into work with very little sleep. I will crash and burn by morning, and watching this entire thing is like being sucked up in to the strongest hurricane imaginable, made up of not wind, but shear laughter and joy. there is no possible way to walk away from these series of videos and not have your entire life altered by this comedic genius.

  • @karn33333 Lack of sleep!!! You bet! watched parts 1 thru 10 until 1:30am. and 4 hours sleep. Worth every second of watching this genius.

  • @ahtartersauce101 German ans Spanish to. This guy is unstopable

  • @shizaunilicious....... robin didn't seem to mind. in fact i quote "you have the best laugh"

  • Thank you so much for posting this. It was wonderful and funny. He is one of the most brilliant comedians out there.

  • @figureskatingfan What a treat for a Sunday afternoon...thanks so much for posting this series, as well. Love this program anyway, and Robin was an extra bonus. :)

  • Anybody know what he is saying to that girl in Russian? I would love to know . . .

  • @nienna24

    she said hey

    he asked is everything allright, you are not tired

    she said she is not, are you. And the she did some comment on water

    he said, that he only drinks water now

  • @triinumyyr thank you so much. You have no idea how long I have wondered what the hell they were saying. Danke.

  • @triinumyyr I wonder why Robin still remembers Russian from a movie 20 years ago?

  • @bliz78obrien Well why do you remember English from learning it when you were young? Its the same principle, so long as he still speaks it now and then, he won't forget it.

  • @bliz78obrien. he's probably practiced since then..

  • Master of improv

  • that laughing woman actually landed up in hospital

  • Thanks for uploading this! Great actor,great man.

  • this interview is epic he have such a talent , i considere him a genius

  • Great videos, thanks for uploading! That poor woman's going to have a heart attack!

  • The day this legend passes I'll watch these videos and probably cry.

  • I've never laughed so much in my life, thanks for posting the show!!

  • amazing series. thank you so much for posting, Robin is the best

  • Thanks very much for posting this eries of clips!

  • 2 words: Pure Genius!

  • GOD that ladies laugh is ANNOYING! if she was next to me i would of told her to shut it!

  • I wonder what would happen if you put Rowan Atkinson and Robin Williams in the same room. !!!

  • @butterflymotifs you'd need a converter for the energy first... they don't have the same voltage in the UK

  • @butterflymotifs why do you put that combination together?

  • @butterflymotifs QUICK! WRITE A SCRIPT PROPOSAL AND GET FUNDING!

  • I have a basic understanding of Russian, but I thought she did quite well. When she first spoke, I thought she was a native speaker.

  • The girl asking the 1st Q is speaking (attempting to speak) Russian maybe is Russian, BUT she can barely speak it...

  • AMAZING !!!...thats all I can say.

  • great episode!!

    I have to ask; Is there an episode with Jim Carrey??? If so could you up-load it, please??

  • This has to be the singular funniest interview I have had the good fortune to watch.My stomach actually hurts.Thank God also for the wonderful with the infectious laughter.Robin Williams,This is you at your very best.Thank you for the posting.

  • Robin Williams is such a class act. I wrote him a letter a few years ago when I was going through a hard time, and his movies helped me through it, he responded personally to me. One of the films I told him helped me get through it was "Mrs. Doubtfire" - he wrote me back and included a photo of Mrs. Doubtfire that said, "To Jason, all the best dear." - Robin Williams. One of the strongest talents and most honest souls to ever set foot on film or on a stage.

  • Yes Thank You for posting this series

  • He is such a nice guy, too. He was here in Winnipeg Canada about 3 years ago and he was attending a very formal function at an affluent Hotel. When he was leaving the building, he happened to pass a banquet hall that was for a graduation party. Well, he nonchalantly walked in and spoke to whomever wanted to talk to him. Very down to earth. So unpretentious.

  • First girl is Russian.

  • @TheVitushkin i thought i heard some bulgarian there...

  • @metalicefan Russian is my own language.I'll never confuse it with something other

  • How did he go from bald (as in this) to having a thick head of hair?

  • I know it's been said a thousand times but - I wish I had a fraction of his talent. There really isn't much more to say. This particular episode of "Inside the actor's studio" is the most motivating I've ever seen...

  • thanks so much for sharing this interview! I LOVED it! Robin williams is a comedy idol for me. Its great to watch and learn from him.

  • true genius

    maximum respect and admiration

  • People, let me tell you, very few times have I been so inspired like now, after watching this! Thank you Robin.

  • this is inspiring...

  • those words from 2:26 to 2:47 are like the simplest example of Robin's intelligence. He's a great comedian if not the greatest.

  • BEST EPISODE EVAR

  • Robin williams on set he talked about all his life and all you ask is :

    "how do you feel so good?"

    that is lame

    Thanks for sharing.

  • Even though i'll probably never meet him in person, i feel like i know him all my life, such a talented man, a great human being gives you a warm feeling after listening to him.

    I will probably shed tears when Robin will die...humanity will loose another valuable pearl at the hands of time...

  • @mihaimoldo

    im sorry man but i really want you to die before him .. 

  • @ze000ez how very noble of you....Troll right?

  • what a show!!! best episode of inside the actors studio! I've never laughed so hard for an interview! Robin Williams is just....I'm speechless now

  • russian translation in case you need it:

    girl: good evening

    robin: good evening. is everything ok? good?

    girl: yes, everything's great. i'm so glad to see you.

    robin: are you tired?

    girl: no, not tired. and you?

    robin: no, not tired.

    girl: do you want water?

    robin: water? it's only water. not vodka, not stolichnaya. no. only water.

  • @cobwebbedcorner spasiba !

  • I almost was in bed over an hour ago, and stumbled onto this. It is now 3 am. Thank you for keeping me awake!!!  Seriously a very good show.

  • @1badsteed hahaha i'm exactly the same

  • @horseyboi same here xD

  • For u guys laughing at that guy he and the guy who said he gas a disease or something well he looks pretty normal to me there's nothing wrong with him

  • for all the LOL@ 4:26 ...not sure if you're aware of MD or CP.. but he very well could be a candidate for either. Seeing a person who is deformed by a disorder is initially shocking as you can tell from Robin's reaction, but it takes the character of a real man to hold his inital reaction and treat this man fairly and with respect, unlike you other ignorant children who laughed and mocked him.

  • Thanks so much for sharing this!!! What a wonderful man he is!!

  • Yeah this man is absolutely brilliant.

  • what a smart man

  • 4:33 holy smokes, look at that dude's ears

  • cool post thanks

  • Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting.

    I loved every minute of the series.

    Robin Williams trully the BEST!

  • Mr. Potato Head at 4:26

  • @adnanteacher Oh my friggin GOD!

    I looked at this comment and paused it at 4:26 while I was eating some peanuts and I nearly choked on them

    He looks so FUCKING weird xD

    Oh my god

    Oh yeah, robin williams never ceases to amaze me

  • lien mean.. This was truly the best INSIDE ever.!!!

  • if anything, this video should be what people remember in 100 years!

  • Fuck that man at 4:25 has massive ears.

  • after an hour of listening to that lady laugh i think i will drive a fire poker through my ears.

  • The video is done but i can still hear it...Its resurfaces every 10 seconds.... like someone trying to start a faulty engine only the engines in your head

  • She wasn't that bad xD

  • truly amazing ..

    this reveals a side of him that is not humorous for the most ...but simply ! human ! amazing .. smart.. !

    yet a student !

    i love u robin Williams

  • no mrs doubtfire? does anyone have the link to part 10, I cant find it

  • part 10 was blocked.

  • bollocks, i really wanted to hear about mrs doubtfire. I think that is his best movie ever

  • @arsenal1884

    i dont think its his best, but i think its one of my faves of his. probably the one that made me laugh the hardest :)

    i wish they talked about it too

  • Do you know why? And what was said or talked about?

  • He is amazing... he is so smart. I love that he can be so mature and so imature at the same time. I get called weird all the time and i totaly don't care cause i just like making people laugh.

    Robin is so funny and so smart and mature and he speaks so many languages. How many does he speak?

  • The funiest man on earth... you just have to watch one of the parts to realize that...

  • i absolutley loved watching this but I feel so bad for whomever had to sit next to that fat lady laughing so obnoxiously.

  • I've seen him in so many things, I never thought he was really funny. But watching him just unload stuff off the top of his head you got to know he may be the funniest person alive.

  • Genius, simply genius...

  • The black lady at 4:52 was falling asleep, lol!

  • even though this was a long episode...im still not satisfied with robin williams.....i want more!!!!

  • Thank's to robin for his genius, and thank's to figureskatingfan for posting this!!

  • Thank you very much for posting the series!

  • Comment removed

  • I am impressed, Robin is a true genius in so many areas, I wish I had 10% of his talents.

  • @Dorgon2 i think 10% of that genius is breathing so you got the first step covered

  • @Dorgon2 if you ever do i wish i had 10% of yours

  • @Dorgon2 10%???!?!?! SCREW THAT I WANT IT ALL
