I sat down and talked with Judd Apatow, Aidy Bryant, Nicole Holofcener, Jim Norton, Todd Glass and Maria Bamford about the 6 comedians we lost this past year. And this year was especially rough because, as awful as it is to lose a friend and colleague, this year we lost people who permanently changed what it is we all do. If wed JUST lost Mike Nichols, OR Harold Ramis OR Joan Rivers? Any of those, alone? THAT would be awful enough. But to lose them AND Robin Williams AND Jan Hooks (who is in the pantheon with Dan Akroyd, Phil Hartman and Will Ferrell) AND Sid Caesar? Its too much, sometimes. These people always helped when it became too much. I start to lose it at the 6:41 mark, and it seems like I recover. The editor deserves some kind of award because, in the actual conversation? I lost it. Completely lost it.
