    Veteran film and television comedic actor Robin Williams was found dead on Monday. He was 63.
    The cause of death is believed to be suicide via asphyxiation, according to the coroner’s office in Tiburon, Calif. He was found in his home.
    Williams is best known for both comedic and dramatic roles in movies including “Good Will Hunting,” for which he won a Best Supporting Actor in 1997. In addition, he won several Emmys, Golden Globes.
    Williams’ film career was bookended by TV roles including his breakout role on the ABC sitcom “Mork & Mindy” in 1978. He returned to TV on CBS last season, “The Crazy Ones.”
    Horrible news. RIP

    No bloody way. I hope that's wrong :(:( RIP

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    It's true, all over the internet.

    On a side note: It's sad that you depend on Sky for your news source.

    EDIT: Sky now covering it.

    EDIT 2: Suspected Suicide....bloody hell.

    Gutted. Mrs. Doubtfire was my favourite movie as a kid. Wore out the video tape from watching it so much.

    Bicentennial Man was also the first film to make me cry.

    I was just watching an episode of Family guy on BBC eleventy or whatever and the skit was that everyone and everything that Peter Griffin touched turned into Robin. That's so weird.

    Nanu Nanu you crazy talented funny man Robin.

    Jaysus now there's a shock. He mightn't have been as on the ball for the last few years but he's a huge loss to the world of comedy.
