jimjimbo Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Anyone seen this show on Showtime? Watched it last night, and was honestly pretty disappointed. A lot of stills, garbled old recordings. Some interesting things I didn't know, but a positive outcome after all. He was a wreck for a long time.....

rplace Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Same impression for about the first half hour. It did not hold my attention but I was tired from a long weekend. I'll give it a full watch soon. Was hoping it gets better but doesn't sound like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree. It's too bad because Showtime normally does some very good original programming, but not this time.....Some crazy video of him snorting blow from the blade of a knife....

JJkizak Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I understand now that his health is not good and he cannot play anymore. JJK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJK I've read that his hands are the real problem, arthritis, ligament and tendon damage, etc. Although I do believe he has a show scheduled for later this year in London.
