Think TIME would have approved if Jeff Foxworthy had played the part?
___________
I enjoy Foxworthy, but as an actor, comedian, whatever, Jeff would not be able to keep up with Robin Williams for more than 15 seconds. I'd be very surprised if Jeff were to disagree.
You're after me arent' you? That wasn't the point and you know it wasn't the point.
And as for 'keeping up', if you mean Jeff would have a tendency to stay on topic more than 15 seconds, well I guess anyone pursuing a thought further than the tip of their lip would be left in the dust by Robin "sixty stupid comments in 16 seconds" Williams.
Au contraire. Foxworthy's You-know-you're-a-redneck routine is far funnier than anything William's has ever done. Average Americans never get tired of them. The rest of Foxworthy's stand-up bit is funnier than Williams too. But of course Williams has never done anything that could be considered funny so Foxworthy only has to jump over a very low bar to beat him.
