Its hard to find many greater tributes to Robin Williams than an invitation from Johnny Carson to appear in his second-to-last installment as host of The Tonight Show, and his final night with guests (the other being Bette Midler). I wish I could find his SNL appearance from Feb. 11, 1984, the only time Wiliams worked alongside Eddie Murphy. That particular edition also featured him with Joe Piscopo in a great spoof of Budweiser commercials. They look into each others eyes on the ice, ready to hit the puck -- and Williams clobbers Piscopo. They brawl and other players join the melee. They cut from the brawl to a shot of Piscopo and Williams -- both badly bloodied and missing a few teeth -- as they make a toast to a Bud. Great, great parody. I hope I can find it. https://youtube/watch?v=CjLVcBe2O6w
