I saw Bob perform that same Disney strike routine live while in the audience of the Tonight Show just a few weeks before this. Getting to see him live was a privilege and I certainly miss him today. RIP, Bob!
A real performer, he didn't turn his back to the audience moving toward his seat. Some hosts don't like that, but real performer prefer the audience. You can feel this slight in the tone of the host for the rest of the show.
A man could do a lot worse than to spend so many years bringing so much joy to so many people. God rest him. ♥
Brilliant!! The man's timing was breathtaking!
Underated. A true comedic genius.
A national (and international) treasure. RIP, good man.
He is a legend and legends never die.
His funniest sketch in my opinion was the supposed telephone conversation with Walter Raleigh on the discovery of tobacco.
Only discovered that recently. Fantastic.
The driving instructor
@@henrietta1066oh that blue flashing light blinded you!
I remember it well in the 60s.
His one sided telephone call monologs were master classes in comedy.
You could imagine the person on the other side perfectly.
A great comedian and wordsmith.

Newhart had a seemingly effortless combination of an Everyman and a comedian. A natural wonderful talent.
Oh my goodness, so glad I lived in the same time as this sweet, lovely genius. Thank you Bob Newhart, May you rest in peace.
RIP, Mr Newhart... you'll always be my family's favourite driving instructor!
Miss you Bob..😢❤
He was a brilliant storyteller. Loved him as soon as i heard him. Rip Bob
I've been a huge fan of Bob Newhart for circa 50 years. ❤
A most fitting title for this video. Thanks for sharing!
9:21 It is called the Peter's Principal
It's also called modern political career standard operating procedure.
Good entertainment. Thanks for posting that. Newhart appears to be a genuinely cool guy.
Mine is the driving instructor. Pleaseee if you’ve never seen it, get the dvd
R.I.P Genius!!🙏
Clever!

National Treasure.
Thank you
I found part of his genius to have the audience fill in the punch line before he gave his own absolutely genius.
What year was this recorded? Excellent quality.
British humour vs American humour - cerebral vs slapstick.
I agree, but there's always Benny Hill.
Quite succesfuL home in LA
Norm stole that from Bob!
His uncle Jean Luc de Gatineau. 😎
Love Bob, but if he just keep it down....
Nothing wrong with that English toff accent, Bob
Norm did that first joke much better - I think on Conan
Crazy teachers have unions and are everywhere now.
The real crazies are the moms for liberty types disrupting school boards and banning books
