Bill Murray young, old and in between, has always been golden. Just naturally funny, even in general conversation (listen to the camera people laughing), highly intelligent, exudes biting wit and sarcasm, dead pan expression and HILARIOUS. He’s a national treasure. Gilda, What a talent and what a heart. She was one of a kind. Gone way to soon.
He's a piece of crap. And people think Chevy was a dick. This guy is the SINGLE reason we never got ghostbusters 3 and he only made up with Harold Ramis days before he died. Fuck Bill Murray (after lost in translation). The only upside is he'll never get that oscar he so DESPERATELY wanted.
I was a regular caller to the Tom Snyder radio show back in the 90's. I was on about 10 times with various celebrities and Tom loved my jokes. His favorite was when I was on with Rita Coolidge and Tom told the joke, "What do you get when you play a country music record backwards -- you get your truck back, your wife back..." We all laughed and I said, "What do you get when you play new age music backwards?" Tom, still chuckling, said, "Tell us, Dan." "New Age music." Silence for a second, then Tom absolutely erupted in laughter, and I heard him tell that joke twice on his show after that, and one of those times he mentioned me by name, "That was from a caller named Dan from Hot Springs, Arkansas, and I guarantee he's listening now." I was on his last show and got a little emotional even though he warned everyone not to be, and I regret that. When his show ended he sent me an autographed portrait with the words, "To Dan Williams, a real favorite." It was destroyed when the apartment building I was living in burned to the ground a year and a day after Tom's death -- July 30, 2008. It hurts my heart to this day that both of them are gone forever. I could honestly cry right now, just thinking about it. I loved you, Tom. You kept my spirits up when I barely had anything but a radio to my name. Well, never mind, I am crying.
That joke is funny as hell. So sorry your picture was destroyed. But at least you still have all the great memories. And thank you for sharing one of them with us. ❤️
The original SNL cast will always be the best for me. Especially Bill and Gilda and of course John. Bill has always seemed to be just an easy going guy and it comes thru when he talks. Always has great stories. He can be funny without even trying to be, the expressions, the timing. Love the SNL cheeseburger scene where he doesn't say anything he just keeps nodding his head like he understands what Robert Klein is telling him and he comes back with Cheeseburger!
Bill Murray speaks with such warmth about the older crew members who watched them grow and be better ..... so unlike today, where anybody over 30 is dismissed as "hey, boomer".
Usually Bill Murray just isn't that entertaining. There's some things he's either starred in or was one of the actors in it though that were nice. I fucking hate golf and the video just doesn't seem relevant until the time you just gave. Thanks.
You can tell that talking about her is hard for him. I remember an old Oprah episode that he was on the week after she died and when asked about her, he could barely get a handful of words out. Dan Akyroyd had to speak for him. He looked so sad 😞
Great interview by Tom. Start by talking about something the guest loves and can fall all over themselves to talk about. Make the guest feel comfortable. Then, dive into what you really want to get out of them. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I never liked Chevy. I always thought he seemed so smug, and didn’t think seem to be able to run with the likes of John and Dan. But Bill, Gilda and John were my favorites.
I met him at Mayo Clinic in 2000. In the bloodwork area. I saw him in a waiting room. He was reading the local newspaper. And I didn’t want to bother him. But as I was called in. I couldn’t help myself. I touched his shoulder and said Mr Murray I’m a huge fan. I loved The Todd and Lisa sketches. And as I was walking out and he was walking in he gave me the Todd face and he said Thank You stop it NO I WONT GIVE YOU A NUGGY. Everyone stopped to stare and I just said ok glad we cleared that up. And he smiled and kept walking and so did I. I went home and told everyone I knew I met him.
@@maryallison0509 Great story, thanks for sharing! He walked into the Kennedy Center on the night he was to receive the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. On his right was the red carpet with the press, on the left his fans behind a rope. He walked over to the left and shook hands with each person standing in the front of the group, thanking them for coming. He finally got to me and I blurted out, "I love you!" and he smiled and shook my hand. I was the last person he greeted, and then he walked over to the press side. There are few notable people who I really wanted to meet, and he was one of them. A fun moment!
It's interesting to me that Tom Synder's lack of a studio audience and "intimate conversation" style of interview seemed so odd and ill-suited for the times then. He kind of slipped away into obscurity after being replaced by Dave with the old Late Night show following Johnny. I think for a time they even gave him an audience to make it more standard, which was not a good fit for him. He was off TV for years and then had a comeback here following Letterman after the move to CBS before eventually being replaced by another standard late-night talk show with Kilborn, who was the shits, and eventually Ferguson, who was good. I learned all this later; I was 13 in 1997, and you couldn't have paid me then to watch this over Letterman or Conan. But now, this style is actually what we have with podcasts, and it's the Carsonesque nightly talk show format that seems dated and out of place. Snyder was ahead of his time.
Snyder was one of the best though he seemed to be underappreciated. He had personal conversations with guests, though here he uncharacteristically 'off' a bit with not giving Murray a little more reign here.
I have 5 sons and 3 daughters, I'd be happy if any of them felt called to religious service, and I'm lucky they all make me laugh like I hope Bill did for his mom. She raised a good kid.
Bill did not like working with actors who thought too much of themselves. In "What About Bob" Richard Dreyfuss hated Murray because Dreyfuss acted like he was above the average person (and Bill saw how Richard treated people that way). Bill went out of his way each day to make Dreyfuss miserable on the set. In a recent interview Dreyfuss still called Bill "A Drunken Irish Bully".
Before anyone puts this amazing but troubled performer as poster boy for “What a nice guy Bill is” one must read his “Feuds and allegations of misconduct” in his Wikipedia bio. Remains me of the old axiom “Never meet your idol because you’ll be disappointed” An immense talent? Absolutely yes! Man can do both, drama 🎭 and comedy and much more…as a person?…Well, I wouldn’t want to be the valet guy that brings him the 🔑 to his vehicle.
Bill Murray. ❤ Yes! That's all I need to say. 😉 Chicago girl here. 🤪 Gilda & Bill on SNL: "Lisa and Todd" 🤣 I remember Tom Snyder. Shut up, Tom! Nobody wanted to hear YOUR stories...Just let the GUESTS talk! JEEZ.
Whoa there Bill, the Tigers went on to beat San Diego in the World Series in '84 , and if that hadn't happened then all those derelict cars that were burned in Detroit afterwards might still be sitting there!
I remendously respect Mr. Murray for his body of work. Tom Snyder, on the other hand, never learned to put his ego aside and simply let the guests talk. He always kept trying to show how smart and "knowing" he was. Annoying.
This guy is not a good interviewer. He talked too much about him self. Perfect opportunity to have a good interview with Bill Murray and he blew it 🤦♀️
Boy, *_Howard Stern_* was right about Tom. _Tom_ can certainly put anyone to sleep, those _first 10 minutes_ of the interview were boring *_af_* constantly asking Bill questions about golf.. 😴😴😴

@@DJRitty Dan Aykroyd, is that you??? 😂🤣
Aww, the minute Gilda is brought up you see Bill get chocked back. He really did love her. Rip.
We've been 30 plus years without Gilda, and there is still no one who can make me laugh and feel good the way she could.
That's sad
It's always something.

Why would you tell a lie like that ? Tom died July 29th 2007
@C Foster Why would you make up a lie like that? isn't the world full of enough lies? why must you turn my intronnet into a house of lies?

@@garyenwards1608 HE WROTE “A YEAR AND A DAY” AFTER HE DIED. READ THOROUGHLY, THEN WRITE 🙄
@@rebeccahopkins9522 you mad bro
Loved the movie and the kind words he spoke about Gilda. Both are still 2 of my favorites!
Love Bill,adore Gilda.......miss the old days : (
Indeed, I do as well...
Me too. ☹️
One of the few people in the world who can pull off a serious persona with such an outrageous hat. One of my favorite celebrities. Cheers
Bill Murray is the only person I could watch a 20-minute interview.
Midas Snap Tom Arnold and Amy Shumer for me.:-(
Really, I'll have to take a look.
Midas Snap No I was just kidding. They're terrible.lol
That's kinda sad

Thank you for preserving the commercials. What a great time machine.
Tom really knew his stuff. He made Bill feel comfortable, and he really opened up. Great interview.
Stripes is one of my favorite Bill Murray films.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Tom was always such a great interviewer.
What an outstanding interview! LOVED IT!!
Am I the only one who really enjoyed the classic commercials that were in the video? 😂
Me too😃
Gilda comments at 14:45
thanks
Hoopla Jones, doing gods work. Thanks.

Dan Ackroyd as Tom Snyder interviewing Mick Jagger. Dang. He had this guy down pat.
I still miss Gilda...Very much.
Life long fan of Bill Murray!
Great interview by Tom. Start by talking about something the guest loves and can fall all over themselves to talk about. Make the guest feel comfortable. Then, dive into what you really want to get out of them. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I think he was and is a lot more talented than Chevy Chase.
Definitely.
Entertainment nees
Still is...
He’s a better man, full stop. His humility pushed him into being a better talent.
Everyone is.
Bill Murray is Top Shelf All The Way. Gifted at every role he takes on. National Treasure. I think he'd be great to have for a neighbor. 🙏👍
This is a great interview. I remember when it aired
He is so down too Earth. Great interview!!!
When Chevy chase quit SNL that was the best thing he could’ve done because it gave us Bill Murray who is head and shoulders above Chevy Chase
Time has proven you right.
I never liked Chevy. I always thought he seemed so smug, and didn’t think seem to be able to run with the likes of John and Dan. But Bill, Gilda and John were my favorites.
He is absolutely adorable, I love him! Met him too.

The Man Who Knew Too Little is a great movie!
Bill surviving all those mean nuns is a badge of honor. Go Cubs Go!
Hey! Bill and I have something in common. I grew up with people too!
He loved her so much.
Marvelous interview, Murray shouldn't be compared to Chevy Chase, or anyone else.
Is it weird that I also miss these commercials?
I feel like ‘97 wasn’t that long ago, and then you see the commercials.
Yeah man, stuffs changed.🤔
seeing them once every 20 years is different than 20 times every day.

16:49 "I shampoo everyday but my scalp still itches" you need SCALPICIN! lmao
Yeah - I was wondering if I could still buy some.
LMFAO🤣
I miss Tom Snyder. I always thought he was a compelling interviewer.
Tom talked too much. He interrupted and talked about himself.
@@daves1919 he only had 30 minutes, I believe. He needed more control.

He makes it seem like "Caddyshack" was an autobiography...
wasnt it?
Isn’t the main character based on his brother?
Meeting Bill Murray is on my bucket list.
I miss late night shows like this. Now it's only antics and fake laughs. This is in the style of Dick Cavett and I miss it.
During Snyder's lead in, every time they cut to Bill it looked like he was thinking "Wow, Ackroyd sure got this one right"
great interview by tom
I didn't know Tom had passed away, I quit watching television a long time ago but enjoyed his show.

Tom:"No one will ever have a bigger ego than meeee!"
Bill was so much more funnier than Chevy on SNL.
Yep, not even close.
Great conversation
watching this in 2020: they touch their faces a lot...
Interview was a lot better than the film he was plugging. LOL :)
That's a great hat.
This is the most contrasting interview I have ever seen.
Loved ground hog day
His Gilda comments start at 15:15
these are tears for happy...I swear
Dan Ackroyd is underated and a wonderful dramatic actor.
Always hilarious.
Bill Murray. ❤ Yes! That's all I need to say. 😉 Chicago girl here. 🤪 Gilda & Bill on SNL: "Lisa and Todd" 🤣
I remember Tom Snyder. Shut up, Tom! Nobody wanted to hear YOUR stories...Just let the GUESTS talk! JEEZ.
SHE’S Funny (& MISSED!)I LOVE (AGape’) ALL of YOU!!!!!!
What a decent fellow.
Hey barflietender, hey last call girl, lookie McKinnon here! the legendary SNL is as good/bad/dead as it has ever been...four decades + don't lie
Tom Snyder and Bob Costas ("Later") were the OG podcasters.
He kept interrupting Bill Murray in the interview. Very Annoying. Bill wanted to talk...
give him space!!!!
Bill is Wonderful.
Our favorite movie of his. Except for the very last scene. We always turn it off before that. (We own the movie)
When did tom die?
Loving the hat 😍
Skip to 13:50 to avoid boring stuff.
Thank you
Snyder did the best interviews
Bill rules.
Whoa there Bill, the Tigers went on to beat San Diego in the World Series in '84 , and if that hadn't happened then all those derelict cars that were burned in Detroit afterwards might still be sitting there!
Tom was good, but If he was less self-absorbed, he could have been brilliant

In Texas they finally stop being able to hit you in high school , so it's kinda weird to hear it's the other way around in some states.
Never heard of that movie, the man who knew too little.
It's great. It's on Netflix right now.
I rented it on video when it came out. It was ok if I remember correctly
Gotta see it! "Be my friend, please!" 😂
It has some funny bits, but misses the mark on being a truly funny or memorable movie.
I agree!
And now Tom Snyder is dead. The world just keeps on spinning.
Were standing ovations once a rare thing? Seems like even the bad shows I see get a standing ovation.
Buzzed Bill is...pretty much me...I wish
Great interview, but The Man Who Knew Too Little is in my top 5 Worst Films Ever Made
He now lives in the SoCal area.
No, he doesn't.
Is the first 5 mins of this interview really about fucking golf?!
No. Go see a doctor immediately. There isn't a mention of golf in this entire interview.
