The last role of Phil Hartman, and it's one of his finest!

I've seen most of Phil Hartman's work and loved him in near everything he's done, and I thought I'd check out his final voice performance. He was great in this episode despite him having almost nothing to do and having very little dialogue. It was a good role for Phil Hartman to go out on. A game show host voiced by Phil Hartman is just short of perfect casting. The rest of this is not much to write about, so I have chosen not to. Only really recommended to here the last performance of Hartman. The only other thing to look forward to is the great narration by Robert. I can't compare this to the other episodes as I have never seen any of them.
