Robin

Mork calling Orson, come in Orson!

This video gave me goosebumps. It’s my first time seeing Jamie Costa as Robin Williams and I swear it’s like seeing a young Robin again.

The nostalgia effect of Jamie’s costume and seeing the red space suit, brings me back to the 80s when I watched reruns of Mork and Mindy on TV. Amazing.

Thanks Cesar for sharing the video.

Damn it, I hate when links rot. The post I published on the day Robin died has a couple of links and a video which are no longer available. One link is behind a paywall, the other I’ve restored via archive.org but I have no idea what video I shared that day.

Edit: the video of Jamie Costa has been removed so I added a screenshot from this deepfake video.

  1. Link rot is definitely very frustrating, and when combined with non-descriptive URLs like those on YouTube, it’s impossible to know what it was. It also looks like Archive.org doesn’t track deleted youtube videos either

    1. Damn, that video of Jamie Costa is offline already. I guess they really meant it to be a “test shoot”. I should have grabbed a screenshot ..
