We are ALL forgotten ... but as for this man. He will be alive in our memories for a LONG TIME TO COME! A Man's MAN. A man that will put a smile on our face when his name is mentioned, his movie pops up, etc. Really, someone you can't help but love! We will always miss you!
Man, these guys are great together! I never would have guessed. And they so clearly love working together. They have this kind of Hope-Crosby chemistry. Also, Steve is a brilliant talk show host. I wouldn't have suspected that, given his manic stage persona. What a great slice of the world of my youth.
Burt Reynolds is priceless. He is a beautiful man who makes me laugh. He could not look bad no matter what he did to his face, or what he stuck to his head. 75% of sexiness is confidence and Burt always had that. Love you Burt and miss you, so sorry we don't see more of you today
Half of the most legendary mustache shaved and left that way on Carson hosted by Steve Martin. The planets aligned and created legendary comedic greatness…epic.
This guy dying is one of those that really hurts even though I never met him in my life. I'm 56 and it reminds me of John Lennon dying, society loses a lot by this. This is a guy who was always super positive, it takes someone with a lot of strength to be like that, it seems everyone takes the negative today blaming others for problems, it didn't matter what kind of shit was going down, when Burt was on the scene you knew everything was going to be cool. This really really sucks, he was one of those guys who existed throughout my entire life and acted as a buffer and now he is gone and the world just got a hell of a lot more cold and harsh.
@John Smith agreed. To this day I can’t stand the Beatles songs where his voice or songwriting was dominant. In my opinion, he was truly lucky to be a member of the Beatles, and I can’t fathom why people associate his death with the likes of JFK. MLK, or the like. Or even the death of Burt Reynolds. John Lennon? Really? Imagine all the people, unifying in their tempered resilience upon the assassination of an inflated ego, a false prophet, and a rider on the coattails of George and Paul. Imagine. It’s not hard at all really. I don’t even have to imagine that. It’s real. Lennon as a true visionary and purveyor of revolution is more than just flawed, it’s erroneous. Protesting war, preaching peace and unity, love and tolerance, was not his singular dominion. He should be admired for such notion, but so should Muhammad Ali, and plenty of others, who actually put their actions in the places where others rested on words. Try not allowing your bag of useless shit girlfriend to split up what was widely considered the preeminent musical group of the time? How’s that for peace and love and unity?
Georgie Thumbs i know what tou mean. One year during Christmas my aunt from Detroit my Aunt Barbara Pelletier call Dusty Louisville Kentucky because that Christmas Burt Reynolds paid for everyone's longest is called I believe in America to wish your loved ones a Merry Christmas that was Burt Reynolds Christmas present for everyone in American! Imagine how much it cost him what a great American celebrity an amazing dude made everybody laugh love to show off and was good at it hey you're still in the world that's a good thing and I am too and somewhere along the line somewhere else to come through just like him keeping up the face he was a gift to us all and shared it with us and I appreciate him for that
I was 18, Steve was the #1 comedian and Burt was the #1 Movie star and I was a huge fan of them both, so of course I saw this live that evening and we just rolled on the floor. Saw both Hooper and The End that year and Steve's The Jerk came out the year after. I miss Burt and I still cherish Steve's performances whenever I can see them. Oh and Ed McMahon was no slouch either...Hiiiiiiiioooooooh!
That must be the best electric razor ever made to shave off that thick a mustache in a matter of seconds. Must be back in the day when American products were actually made in America. What a concept.
Priceless Burt shaving part of his stash off. Steve Martin passing the arrow, did this show ever become a hall of fame of anything?? Ah, I forgot Burt pushing on the plunger.
Brando hated Burt . I've seen interviews with Burt ,that's why he had the mustach ,to not get the Brando resemblance . Brando hated Burt Reynolds with a passion .
I just learned that too! Ever since Burt died I've been depressed. He was such a likeable guy. So I've been watching lots of TH-cam videos and reading tributes and so forth. I learned that Burt Reynolds was approached to play the part of Michael Corleone in Godfather but Marlon Brando threatened to quit so that was that. As much as Al Pacino nailed the role and will forever be defined by his performance in Godfather, Burt would have been wonderful in that film. He not only bears a resemblance to Marlon Brando but he would be totally believable as James Caan's brother, too.
Brando was weird that way---he had problems with certain people, like Cybill Shepherd, for reasons unknown or ones totally blown out of proportion. Once he took a dislike to someone it was intense and lasted pretty much forever.
It's because he is Marlon Brando check out the back of their heads if you get a chance. Actors play many parts have different wigs Prosthetics contact lenses did they use CGI to make them look different I don't know how they do the weight but I know they do lens distortion. Some of them will be musicians and be in five different bands that have a totally different appearance
RIP Burt. Nobody today would have done what he did.
He knows it will grow back completely in about 6 hours.
Burt Reynolds...Steve Martin....classic Hollywood at its best. They don't make coolness like that anymore. Both stars have done such awesome work!
What an American Icon! Burt's Tonight Show appearances are legendary. Rest In Peace!
We are ALL forgotten ... but as for this man. He will be alive in our memories for a LONG TIME TO COME! A Man's MAN. A man that will put a smile on our face when his name is mentioned, his movie pops up, etc.
Really, someone you can't help but love! We will always miss you!
Well said! 💗
They don't really make them like Burt anymore. Many stars today aren't secure enough to laugh at themselves. Today they take themselves so seriously.
Man, these guys are great together! I never would have guessed. And they so clearly love working together. They have this kind of Hope-Crosby chemistry. Also, Steve is a brilliant talk show host.

When you're SO cool, and SO handsome, ANYTHING you do defines cool.
Burt is a revelation. Deadpan wit and Brandoesque in profile. A gem!
Very brandoesque! Well-observed
Every one knows and I'm saying it here, he does not like Marlon Brandon comparison.
RIP Burt. You were and will always be the MAN
R.I.P. Burt Reynolds! One of my favourite actors. All the good guys are going.
Burt Reynolds is priceless. He is a beautiful man who makes me laugh. He could not look bad no matter what he did to his face, or what he stuck to his head. 75% of sexiness is confidence and Burt always had that. Love you Burt and miss you, so sorry we don't see more of you today
What a good sport Burt is, it is really hard not to like him.
My husband watches Gunsmoke on TVLand and Burt is so young on them! What a charming, beautiful man!
Half of the most legendary mustache shaved and left that way on Carson hosted by Steve Martin. The planets aligned and created legendary comedic greatness…epic.
dang...Burt has a good poker face.

Very well said. A guy who was always fun and strong and never took himself too seriously. Very few guys left like that.
What a beautiful and cool and crazy and sexy and funny guy he was.
Bert wasnt bad either
@@ZEZERBING Lol...nice one! 😉
😂😂😂
Burt doing Hamlet, in a car, doing 135mph, in the South...classic!
I was 18, Steve was the #1 comedian and Burt was the #1 Movie star and I was a huge fan of them both, so of course I saw this live that evening and we just rolled on the floor.

I remember hooper,all that comes to mind is a big smoke stack falling lol.
Always enjoyed a Burt Reynolds interview..Always hilarious..
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for uploading this!
YOU WILL BE SURELY MISSED BURT.
YOU WERE & ARE 1 CRAZY KINDA GUY !
( KNUCKLE👊🏽BUMP ) Burt Reynolds ....
How legends are made.
He was one cool dude
The man is a living legend!
HOLY S**T! I can't believe he did that. Steve must have loved it. R.I.P. Bandit.
It is amazing how much younger he instantly looks. Especially during the paper part.
Burt was certainly ‘one of a kind.’ Thanks for the laughs. R.I.P. Bandit.
Burt was such a good sport
I watched this when I was a kid in the 70’s....hard to believe it was over 40 years ago....I could not believe he did it at the time....
What a sexy, handsome man! He really epitomized the 70s
Burt and Steve were pure gold on this show. RIP BR.
Crazy that Steve Martin was just over 30 years old on this program and what he had already accomplished was phenomenal
A very handsome man and masculine!! Love RIP
burt was so cool
1000 times better than Clooney
Clooney could have been one of the cheerleaders for Burts Bunch...
Clooney is a big sissy
MoeGreensLeftEye Clonney doesn't even do his own stunt s his very overrated along with alot of the actors today, know compare to BURT of actor's today
There was only one Burt Reynolds ,R.I.P . my friend
Veronica Electron 1000? Get your numbers right 1,000,000,000 least
Steve Martins shocked face is priceless
I always liked how Burt was a good sport.He was always entertaining.
Burt reynolds is and was a great improviser. he topped Steve-Goaddamn-Martin man. C'mon people!
And that’s saying something!!
I can't see most of today's "stars" doing something like this. Good to know Burt has a sense of humor, especially about himself.
Thanks for posting. Enjoy watching the old Tonight Shows.
Shaving with an electric razor like that was probably more painful than the stunts in Hooper.
That must be the best electric razor ever made to shave off that thick a mustache in a matter of seconds. Must be back in the day when American products were actually made in America. What a concept.
i love this. I can't believe he did it.
Haha, these two guys are perfect for a comedian influence. The tough guy & the confused. That was comedy, Al Bundy would learn to laugh by that....
Now that's some classic TV right there.
-jcr
He is such a stud!
I miss Burt, what a Legend
This was an amazing interview and time to be alive...Burt and Steve
He was the wild and crazy guy.Burt was the best actor in the 70's love Bandit RIP
I can't believe Burt did that. 😂😂😂 I loved him either way. R. I. P. Burt Reynolds. 💗💗💗
The good ol days. Still cant believe we live in a world with no Burt Reynolds.
😭😭😭 My first love at 7yrs old 💜💜💜
Classic!
Burt's deadpan was excellent - don't know how Steve didn't crack up
We always love Burt. He is such a sport. No one like him ever
That was amazing!
RIP Burt . Real talent here
Great TV !! RIP Burt Reynolds.
This is awesome!!!
Very, very funny. Thank you.
Great times
Thank you
Priceless Burt shaving part of his stash off. Steve Martin passing the arrow, did this show ever become a hall of fame of anything?? Ah, I forgot Burt pushing on the plunger.
What a sport he was!
I remember as a kid watching this .
I wish I could believe you but must call BS
A legend O so missed. RIP Burt Reynolds
Both very great guys lovem
Burt was always such a good sport ❤️
Never seen this..wow..that takes guts..cudo's to Mr. Reynolds
I LOVED THIS DUDE! STEVE TOO!
Best part of the bit was when Steve Martin asked him; "But seriously Burt...."
Steve Martin should have got his own talk show he's pretty good at it
That was awesome!!!
He was always a great entertainer and good sport
One of the best. RIP Burt
Burt had a great sense of humor.
Startling resemblance to a young Brando without the moustache
Kermit Hitler 😂 Charlie, don't you remember that night in the garden?
Brando hated Burt . I've seen interviews with Burt ,that's why he had the mustach ,to not get the Brando resemblance . Brando hated Burt Reynolds with a passion .
I just learned that too! Ever since Burt died I've been depressed. He was such a likeable guy. So I've been watching lots of TH-cam videos and reading tributes and so forth.

P47 Thunderbolt yes and that’s because of one Twilight Zone episode
Brando was weird that way---he had problems with certain people, like Cybill Shepherd, for reasons unknown or ones totally blown out of proportion. Once he took a dislike to someone it was intense and lasted pretty much forever.
Burt and Steve both great!
Crazy, as soon as he turned to show the shaved side, it went instantly to Deliverance.
Things were more relaxed when Johnny wasn't around. Everybody had to bring their A game with Johnny. He was the king!
Thanks for this Bob Stobener, I subbed.
Rip mr reynolds
Hilarious! Only one Burt Reynolds. No one else ever like him. RIP, Burt.
burt reynolds without a mustache is like the night sky without stars
hes spontaneous thats his great gift.
Using an electric razor without trimming it first...ouch.
Yea that had to hurt.
Legendary episode
Steve Martin: "I don't think you're THAT wild and crazy."
Burt: "Hold this mirror."
Now THAT'S entertainment!
That cracks. Me up never seen before
Great either way. I especially liked him with the ‘stache. Loved Burt.
I think he looks much better and younger without the mustache . He s Brando's clone it's uncanny
It's because he is Marlon Brando check out the back of their heads if you get a chance. Actors play many parts have different wigs Prosthetics contact lenses did they use CGI to make them look different I don't know how they do the weight but I know they do lens distortion. Some of them will be musicians and be in five different bands that have a totally different appearance
Yes, but more fun than Brando.
it don't matter when you have a 12-incher
Wild & Craz Burt - Yup - and Steve Martin did a fine job too......
Burt was a good sport and had a great sense of humor.
@melly918
I agree with you completely. Burt could always pull off any unscripted routine with success and laughs, even under pressure.
Now that's a real man😊humor humility and good looks🥰
Mercy!!! That is one fine looking hunk of a man!!!
Couldnt agree more. No celebrity on earth would do that now, just shows people cant 'entertain' these days!!
HAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA!!! Burt Reynolds is a good sport! MAN that's funny stuff!!!!!
Looks damn better without that damn mustache!It opens up his handsome face!
two incredible men
