Just heard of Louie passing away so I ran to find this clip. What a legend.

Two comedy greats! Rest In Peace Louie, you will be missed.

RIP to a legend - I didn’t know he’d passed until I looked it up after this video, but he’ll be missed

RIP, Louie! I was just watching this right after Bob Saget died. So many great lost comedians in this special. Thanks for the laughs, Big Lou!

Completely underrated comedian. Louie

Louis Anderson was quietly an outstanding comedian

I went to one of Louie Anderson's shows in 2019. He was really good. He talks to the audience like a friend. He had a rough upbringing, but is able to turn the stories into humor.

Rodney introduced so many talented comedians!

RIP Louie love you ❤️

Always a treat to see Rodney and the way he promoted young talent!

I love this as much now as I did when I was 11. R.I.P. Louie.

Love the comedians! But hell ! Bravo to Mr. Rodney Dangerfield! To give him self up like this ,to help other comedians… What a human being ,thank you Rodney you’re the best.I give you all the respect of a true American ! Thanks again ! Miss you ! Such a great person....!

RIP Louie YOU WILL BE MISSED

34 years later Louie Anderson is still alive and making people laugh!!

When you get discovered late in life like Rodney did you want for that to never to happen to anyone else. So he made sure that he gave a chance to the young.

RIP Louie :( One of the best.

Loved Louie’s set, and I loved when Rodney came out at the end like a proud mentor and saw him off the stage!

Watching this in mid-Jan 2022 and already three of these “Young Comedians” have passed. RIP Louie, Bob and Sam.

Louie is one of the best to ever do it, and not enough people know.

Louie Anderson always destroyed with stand-up comedy unbelievable absolutely hilarious. Rodney Dangerfield gave so many people such a big break that's like introducing more people into Automotive work when you're already mechanic and he was happy to get young people on into comedy he love to do it. Rodney Dangerfield was a stand up man everytime I see him I miss him he could truly make me smile. Louie Anderson was the first fat man in comedy a master at his craft

The sad thing is that he isn't even that big by today's standards.

Classic days of comedy. Classic days period, really. Long live the 80’s.

I've loved Louie for a long time, and remember when he first became famous. Then I read his book "Dear Dad" and loved him even more.

What a great set! Crushed it!

Such a great set. I remember seeing this first-run on HBO. Laughed my ass off.

I remember sitting in my grandmother’s basement watch a bootleg of this video that a deceased friend and his brother Billy brought over. We smoked a couple of doobies and laughed for hours watch on great comic after the next. We always used Anderson line “Are you on dope” every time we’d see each other, and of course the follow up line, “Then give me some”. I sure do miss both Louie and my friend that brought over those videos. 😢

so glad someone posted this. That entire HBO special had some great comedians who were really at their best. This one's a gem.

This one special broke in: Bob Saget, Roseanne, Sam Kinison, Louie Anderson.

Imagine these two gems trying this today, in 2018?

RIP Louie I remember you since the 80s when I was a kid.

It's been so long since I have seen Louie Anderson do stand-up that I had forgotten how great he is. And I had an Uncle that looked quite a bit like Rodney Dangerfield, he passed 50 years ago, and his family misses him dearly.

My friends and I used to go to Dangerfield‘s down in the city in the 80s. What a great place, some amazing up-and-coming names. Saw Andrew Dice Clay there, Sam Kinison send Jerry Seinfeld. Sam Kinison was hilarious, Jerry, not so much… I so wish I took the opportunity to go see Louie out in Vegas. Makes me think that I will should see the other greats while I have the opportunity.

I was cracking up after all these years. Love these guys!

R.I.P. Louie Anderson and Rodney Dangerfeild

Thank you, Rodney. you introduced many, Roseanne, Jim Carrey, Tim Allen, Jay Leno, SO many more. We miss you.

Always liked Louie, great humor with no bad language.

This week hes washing lettuce, next week it's the fries...

I remember that cartoon Louie Anderson did when I was a kid, but this was the first time I saw his stand up.

4:47 minutes of Rodney Dangerfield and Louis Anderson is better than 5 seasons of SNL. Think about that.

Rodney why for you die and my man Louie any one remember. Life with Louie great cartoon

one of his best lines - a lot a people don't like to admit there are crazy people in their family but they must be coming from somewhere.

He was phenomenal. RIP Louie 😪

Rest in piece to this absolute legend

Rest In Peace Louie!

This is pure stand-up. Played clean too.

Louie had his own cartoon, nuff said!!

What a great legacy. Making people laugh long after your gone. Enjoy that buffet in heaven Louie.

I like how Louie kissed Rodney good night on the cheek. Louie showed a touch of class there!

Louie is great.

You just KNOW it's the 80s when the best way to end your set, is with a joke about "dope"!

Miss both of these guys a whole lot.

RIP Louie much love

Saw this when I was a kid. It's still funny. R.I.P. Louie.

Rodney was the best!

Omg this is priceless. Legends

didn t know louie was so good...

Even though I was born two years after this, I grew up loving them and watching these legends.

Just finished relistening to Maron's episode with him and him talking about this set and Rodney and Kinison. Such a great comic, man

I’ve heard this particular set up from Louie before, but EVERY time I hear it it’s like the first time hearing it. He had such great delivery. RIP

Louie was so "Cute" when he was young... And he was really a Nice man. RIP Louie....

RIP Louie January 21, 2022 😥

Sad to hear that Louie Anderson have passed away. May yo urest in peace, thank you for everything.

Jim Carrey sent me here. Bless you by the all who blessed us with absolute gold in the era of genuine comedy for the ages.

Life with Louie!

Nobody wants to admit they have crazy family but they come from somewhere

Louie Anderson was near Rodney before laid to rest. RIP RODNEY 1921-2004. RIP LOUIE 1953- 2022

RIP Louie Anderson

Can't replace these guys.

Rodney was the king!

Rodney is a great host and Louie is always so funny and likeable.

His work on Baskets is incredible.

I remember watching that back in the 80s on HBO. When you look back at that and how many comics got they’re start there, it’s surreal! I laughed hard at that skit back then and equally as much just now!

RIP Louie.

Miss ya Louie. You too Rodney. Damn we've lost some great people. It's hard to watch these and try not to cry while you laugh.

Rodney & Louie...Classic!!!

Hey buddy can you help me out with a sandwich? Sure, where is it? LoL!!!

Nice to see young Christine Baskets working the crowd

He was great. RIP Mrs. Basket

back when talent was alive....miss those days

Rest in peace my good man 😍

RIP Louie

“You think he knows he’s that big? Like I woke up one morning and said “Oh no!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 RIP Louie

“Are you on dope?!?, well then Gimmy some!!!” Lol I’ve remembered that for decades but couldn’t recall who from?

RIP Mr. Anderson Thank you for the laughs.

I just loved Louie Anderson.

This is the exact same schtik as when he was on Carson, but it's still funny as hell.

I love when comedy didnt have boundaries and we could all poke fun at each other without people on the internet having a meltdown.

Saw him in Las Vegas; thought I'd die laughing.

RIP Louie! 😢

Wow Louie has been around for ages.

RIP 1953-2022

I loved Louie 🤩 And Rodney too.

He has won 3 Emmy Awards for Outstanding Performer in an Animated Program for playing Louis Anderson and Andy Anderson for Life with Louie, Outstanding Performer in an Animated Program for playing Louis Anderson and Andy Anderson for Life with Louie and Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for playing Christine Baskets in Baskets: Season 1.

RIP 🙏 Louie.

50 years of Louie ! We were so very lucky !

Broad jump killed her lol classic

"Are you on dope!!" rofl!!

Such a funny comedian and such a great actor! It was easy to overlook Louie with everyone dying around the same time and even the same day but he’ll be missed by many he was always regarded as a super kind caring guy

RIP Louie... You were the best....

While I never had anything against adult humor, but I always admired how he could be so hilarious without being dirty or cursing. One of the most talented standups of all time! R.I.P. Louie.
