Had great comedic instincts. Never really took off as a comedian but did some great sketch work.

It is his behind the scenes work that was classic

He tried to do as much damage as he could as a Democrat. He gave us Rob Reiner also an enemy democrat.

There are many of those who have demons though. They end up with shorter lives along with accolades.
