My uncle had a friend that knew Bob hope,he told me that one day they went to visit Bob ( my uncle's friend did my uncle was just there that day) he told me that Bob always had a super fast answer to every comment.
Went to the tonight show around 80-81. Bob Hope just happened to be there that night along with women from BJ and the bear and some comedian who i can bearly remember. It was cool to see Carson and Bob Hope the same night!
One of the biggest and best right there!! I think it's sad that kids today don't know who Bob Hope was and what he did. They don't come better than Bob.
@@BuckyBrown-lt4ry Without a doubt. Bob Hope was arguably the biggest entertainer of the 20th Century. His kids all have nice things to say about him.. doesn't get much better than that.
Really? Despite his fame, i don't get the hype. He was always over-prepared and dull. There are countless comedians today funnier than Hope, and if you're stuck with only thinking the old dead guys were funny, i've got a long list that would bury Hope...Jack Benny, Jonathan Winters, Woody Allen, Dean Martin, Redd Foxx, Rodney Dangerfield, Joan Rivers, Bob Newhart, Johnny himself, and countless more.
Carson didn’t despise Bob Hope. And although it was discussed beforehand what he would talk about, it was not scripted. Hope didn’t read off cue cards like he did on his own specials. Barnie McNulty was Hope’s cue card man. He wasn’t in the Tonight Show Burbank studio. I know because I worked at NBC at the time.
i read that johnny didnt like that hope just had to say the word and hed get an appearance on the tonight show...bob picked any day he chose and carson had no say...what bob wanted bob got...johnny didnt like that...thats the story anyway...if true johnny really couldnt complain since bob hope was always a GREAT guest...im guessing that the ratings were good when bob was on.
@@victorkong82 In the 60s and 70s, Hope was a fine guest to have on the Tonight Show. Yes, he acted like he owned the place, but he could still do the job: the man was quick with a joke and fairly amusing. But through the 80s and into the 90s, as his sight and hearing began to fail him, his talkshow appearances became a painful chore. A Bob Hope interview had to be pretty much scripted in advance, because Hope would only respond to what he thought he was asked. Deviation could lead to disaster and the last thing you want is to embarrass an icon like Hope. In fact, the way they had to work to make Hope look good convinced Carson he didn't want to overstay his welcome in the business.
i meant as compared to his COMEDY ACTS... he had an unusual modicum of candour when interviewed...EVEN on carson... who HATED bob hope...carson was the KING...second to hope...bob hope got on the tonight show when BOB SAID he was gonna be on...CARSON HATED THAT. have you seen hope and CAVETT
Bob Hope (Eltham, Reino Unido; 29 de mayo de 1903 - Toluca Lake, California; 27 de julio de 2003), nacido como Leslie Townes Hope, fue un artista estadounidense nacido en Inglaterra, que durante más de sesenta años de carrera apareció en teatro, radio y televisión, en películas de cine, y en actuaciones para el ejército de los Estados Unidos.
I've watched a few of these Bob Hope Tonight Show appearances - and it seems to me Carson steps on Hope's lines quite often - such as here at the close.
@pete smyth also, Carson HATED it when Hope had all his jokes scripted and would read them, Carson thought that was below his show and told DeCorvoda but Hope ran the steaks at NBC, and the steak-sauce. You can watch Hope (most episodes on Carson appearances) reading or cuing up his jokes just right in a line....and if Johnny interrupted or the show took a different turn, Carson would hear about it the next day (OR THAT NIGHT) that Hope was pissed....and Fred and Johnny would talk it over in closed door meetings and people could hear the shouting through the door.
Seeing as Carson didn't really like Hope, and thought he was dull and unfunny, i would guess that on the off-chance that there was some kind of religious afterlife, Carson would be spending time with someone else.
Just an ugly rumor that Carson didn't like Hope. Some author wrote it in a book to sell books. The interviews with Hope were no more scripted than with any other guest. Carson had prepared questions and notes for most guests and with Hope they actually winged it more often than not.
Johnny may have not hated Bob but it's been said that before a Tonight Show appearance, Hope's people would send Carson several specific questions to ask Bob, and they had written the answers that Hope would say during the interview. Carson was not to stray far from the list. Overall as entertainers Johnny was good on the fly; Hope was so-so-- he needed his material written ahead of time.
@ Tom Kelley. I agree that Bob Hope as the old expression goes, "stayed at the dance too long", but he did not support the Vietnam War. He supported the U.S. troops in Vietnam by entertaining them. And they needed entertainment to take their minds off, if only for an hour or two, that horrible war! He also entertained the U.S. troops during the Korean War and during WW2.

I use to love watching Johnny Carson back in the day. It seems late night television was better back then. I miss them days.
Those were the days they could smoke and drink while on screen and make fun of just about everything without someone whining.
Bob was 78 here, amazing
My Father in law went with hope many times to viet nam. He was a photographer . Told me Hope could take a 15 minute nap on the plane and go for a day.
He was really on top of things.. here.. very funny.. so relaxed.. so good.. what a life he lived!!
I guess I'm kinda off topic but do anybody know of a good site to watch new tv shows online?

These guys are originals . Both created modern specials and late night . Never will be seen again
Talk about 2 legends!!!!!
He was 78 here. He looks good.
There is no doubt Hope would have been "Me Too'd" if he was still alive today - his reputation for womanizing is extraordinary.

Thanks for sharing! Love seeing Bob and Johnny (and Ed, too!).
Woah... that pen catch tho...
If anyone deserves American Icon status ...it's Bob Hope
Bob Hope was the Only Person Ever Not Need a Contract too have to Appear on Carson..He was Aloud too come out when He wanted...
When you been around as long as Bob Hope the audience laughs at the straight lines
"But I wanna tell you".....(rim shot)
I really miss Bob and Johnny.
WHEN TELEVISION WAS WORTH WATCHING.....WHEN THERE WAS RESPECT...THE LESSER CHANNELS THE BETTER OFF WE WERE....WE HAD SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO.....

How come Conan and Letterman spent ten minutes on Conan's podcast this week talking about how much Johnny Carson disliked Bob Hope?

8:20 Elizabeth checking that guy out big time.
He was 78 when this was recorded. Still alert.
I've watched a few of these Bob Hope Tonight Show appearances - and it seems to me Carson steps on Hope's lines quite often - such as here at the close.
I think I heard that Bob was rather hard of hearing, especially by this point in time.
Bob seems pretty sharp here.
i agree, very amazing dude. im impressed

carson hated it when Bob Hope leaves the set (it was all staged by Hope to look important)

Wow. Whats the name of the song the band played for Bob Hope's stage entrance? Thats a bad tune. Loved it!
Norm brought me here
"Isn't that wild, boy....but I wanna tell ya ladies and gentlemen....yes sir!.....right here!"
Did I forget any of the major ones?...please add here.
Only here because norm macdonald called bob hope his s favourite
Today palm springs has over 300 I think
Are these guys sitting together somewhere making and cracking jokes or is it just my imagination?
Seeing as Carson didn't really like Hope, and thought he was dull and unfunny, i would guess that on the off-chance that there was some kind of religious afterlife, Carson would be spending time with someone else.
Those were very smart jokes.
11OO ish...johnny steps all over bobs jokes...bob notices and says so...very funny.
Bob was really funny here...

+RALPH OLSON Thank you.
carson disliked bob hope.
Johnny disliked a lot of folks. Two unique performers. Also all of these shows are scripted, each guest bring three funny stories. I like both men.
I call bullshit on that
wasnt baseball the most watched sport...basketball johnny?...really?
He said football
I just think that Bob Hope stayed too long and became a parady of himself. I also think that his support of the Vietnam War showed him out of step.

@ Tom Kelly. I misspelled your last name as "Kelley" in my above comment. Sorry about the spelling error.
He supported the troops.
Carson was excellent at pretending to enjoy interviewing some celebs. He actually hated interviewing Bob Hope.
That's what I have read also, but I think Johnny didn't like playing straight man much.
"I'd like to go with her hyphen." Them were the days. :)
What does it mean? I’m serious.
I dont get it. I'm not laughing, I love comedy, and lots of great comedians say he is the G.O.A.T. why is this guy not funny to me?
Because you are 17.
to answer seriously i'd guess because you're 16
The education system and your parents failed you. That’s why
