Jonathan Winters wasn't known for either
slapstick or stand-up as much as improv.
If you're familiar with Robin Williams
...their style was
strikingly
similar.
...so much so, that Winters even played
Robin's
SON
, of all things, early in Robin's
career in
"Mork & Mindy"
"Nannu Nannu!"
Jonathan & Robin, together at last

Awww.. now that's a bit of sad news.
Interesting that he was born in Dayton, Ohio.
I hope to live to be 87....

LOL According to him, it was t'other way 'round...
...he picked up the noises, faces & mannerisms
from the natives...then exaggerated them.
Which, btw, is the same thing W.C. Fields sed.

Robin Williams has said that he modeled his style after Winters. I loved Winters. A great comic.
