    Did anyone see the Andy Kaufman story on the E channel, True Hollywood Story? What are your thoughts?

    I have seen several shows on the life of Kaufman. If the E one is the one I am thinking of, they really painted him in a different light. As I remember it, they tried to make him sound absolutely crazy and unstable. This he may have been, but few other shows ever mentioned that, and I think that E is just exaggerating a few stunts he did for jokes to the point of lunacy.

    Andy Kaufman was an absolute genius.
