I had discarded him as a talentless, go for the easy laugh, "personality" who's time had passed. Then saw him on Big Fat Quiz (~2009ish), he was one of the panelists. End of show I could not get past that he was really funny, offbeat funny, and definitely smart. When I saw him again years later on Netflix he was 180 off from what my impressions were in the KP era. So I keep an open mind about him. What bugs the crap out me is when people begin tearing anyone apart based on their conception of who that person was, not is.
Well said, and you argue his case well.
I remain... simply not knowing.
Let us pray that you are correct... that's the better outcome, obviously.
