"Every Lincoln's birthday reminds me of my old girlfriend back in Nebraska, Gina Statutory.. She went to Lincoln High and she was voted Miss Lincoln, because every guy in school took a shot at her in the balcony."
Wow - where does the time go? I was about to enter into my senior year of high school, and now I am a few years older than Johnny was when he taped this. I know he was a difficult man, but he was the best ever at what he did. So funny. Less polarizing times, not just one-sided politics all night long.
Johnny Carson monologues, besides being funny, served as commentary for American political, cultural, and social mores. If you packaged his monologues in chronological order you would have a very good source of historical highlights.
@@myotherusername9224 I think by his own admission he was more of a staight guy, besides when he actually bombed during his monolog his rractions were priceless.
I knew it was 1981 when he mentioned the air traffic controller strike. I was in college finishing up my summer vacation. Reagan invoked a Federal law that prohibited such a strike and was able to get those who struck, fired. This is all from memory, but I recall that broke the PATCO union, and that event many historians point to as a turning point for the decline of labor union power as a whole.
whites, blacks, asians, hispanics, etc etc. I don’t care what you are, we are all humans and life is damn hard as it already is. I hope we can all get along and make life a little better, a little easier and a little friendlier for each other. Like Johnny Carson does for America every single night and still does through these recordings.. lets keep his legacy alive!
This is from maybe October 14, 1991? He does talk about Howard Hughes being dead and he died April 5th, 1976. It looks more like the 70's/80's than the early 90's.
The VERY unfunny and political clowns on late night now will NEVER compare to what Carson was---and still IS---in these videos. Long live the REAL "King of Late Night!" 😂
He had several - here were at least four I can recall - Gina Statutory, whom I believe was voted most likely to conceive, Yassi Arafat, and his prom date, Stella Lugosi, the ugliest girl in school with a bad habit of leaning out the car window and panting, and Freda Groper, whose attraction is self-explanatory. (yes sexist as hell by today's standards but this is for the historical record!).
Tomorrow’s World Relationships A perfect match? A loving family? Happy children? The pressures of today’s world create a grim reality where successful and lasting relationships are something of a fantasy. We cannot rely on the experience of elders since they lived in a very different world, so we have to find how to create meaningful and sustainable partnerships today. The key word in this search is connectedness, or rather, interconnectedness. Because the world is changing at an accelerating pace, it is pointless to compare today’s relationships to those of our parents, or even to relationships of people a decade or two older than us. Each year, the world becomes increasingly connected, and a crisis in one place quickly spreads to the rest of the world. On the personal level, too, things today are very different from what they were a decade ago. We have moved from fast food to fast relationships, and brief has become our permanent state of being. To cope with the growing uncertainty and find direction in the emerging chaos, we need to understand where we are going. We are headed toward total connectedness and interdependence. It is an irreversible process. The more connected we become, the more dependent on each other we become, as well. Soon, we will realize that anything that hurts others hurts me, too, and there is nothing I can do to break my ties with the world. In order to cope successfully with our interconnected future, we must change the nature of our ties from abusive and oppressive to supportive and embracing. Since we already broadcast our thoughts, words, and actions to the entire world, we might as well broadcast positive thoughts, words, and actions, and help improve the world for ourselves and others. In a world that is connected positively, the family is the basic unit of connection. A reality where humanity is a mass of isolated individuals is unsustainable because there will be no connections between people and society will disintegrate just as any organism disintegrates into the smallest elements when it dies. Therefore, the family will be the basic unit where people cultivate positive connections. Since people are becoming increasingly individualistic, the family will be the place where people learn to embrace diversity rather than fight against people who hold different views. People will learn that just as our body exists thanks to different cells and organs working together for the sake of the body, different people who work together for the sake of the family enable the success of the family. From the family unit, people will take their lessons to the community, from the community to the city, from the city to the state, to the country, and finally to the entire world. The key, therefore, to successful relationships in tomorrow’s world, lies not only in connections, but in connections between different people for a common goal, where the differences between them ensure their success and make their mutual dependence imperative, and even welcome.
Johnny Carson...The KING!!
of the Tonight Show.
Loved the parrot joke. Johnny was and will always be the King of Late Night!
I started to tear up a little, I miss the people who were in my life when Johnny was on the tube every night .
I feel the same everyone I watch his reruns !
Thank God for these reruns !!!❤️
what happened to those people Pauly? are you doing alright? just know you’re not alone in that 😔😔
@@MidnightV6 My mother, my Aunt , their both a long time dead
I feel the same way Pauly.
Miss Johnny. Glad we can view the past shows here.
He was a Mr.
You can also view his shows in their entirety Monday through Friday 7pm Pacific time on the Antenna TV channel
Oh, to be able to turn the clock back. Watching these great Johnny Carson clips is a reminder of how much we’ve lost as a society. 😢
Johnny Carson - the greatest ever in late night!
Once in a while, ya just need yer dose of Johnny. Well, for us older ones (I'm 68). Such a classy classic that one. :)
I sure miss Johnny and THE Tonight Show.
Notice the applause. Truly genuinine. Johnny was the standard bearer. We watched him religiously. There was nobody bigger on TV than Carson.
My favorite joke about one of Johnny's girlfriends was the one they nicknamed Miss Lincoln because everybody had a shot at her. 😆😁😆🤣
"Every Lincoln's birthday reminds me of my old girlfriend back in Nebraska, Gina Statutory.. She went to Lincoln High and she was voted Miss Lincoln, because every guy in school took a shot at her in the balcony."
ol johnny had some zingers

Hilarious! Johnny always crack me up when he would make jokes about Burbank, would love to see a collection of or featured Burbank jokes!
Burbank downtown use to be really bad when he was hosting. When I got to LA in 1994 Burbank had cleaned up its downtown. It was really nice.
I miss these entertainers. Clean and funny humor.
My one dream that I unfortunately never got to fill. Attend a live Carson airing.
3 Perfect Showmen for real . They invented this genre from scratch. God Bless Much Love ©®
More monologues please.
Holy Cr*p, that's good stuff. The first time I ever heard the Gina Statutori bit.. I almost passed out. This is why Carson will Always be King!
When people were entertaining without being lewd, crude and rude.
so you dont like andrew dice clay, nick d'paolo,eddie murphy or many others ? to each his own
Johnny learned how to talk to the crowd from Red Skelton and Jack Gleason about keeping it clean and funny 😆 😄 🤣 😂
Good to see a monologue
"Reminds me of my old girlfriend back in Nebraska, Gina Statutori ..."
Johnny Carson monologues, besides being funny, served as commentary for American political, cultural, and social mores. If you packaged his monologues in chronological order you would have a very good source of historical highlights.
On this particular night, he bombed. That was the 'neutron' reference.
He wasn't a great comedian, but he was a funny guy.

Got it, #4631 August 12, 1981. William Devane, Pat McCormick and musical Guest The Manhattan Transfer.
Take me back to 1981.
Love me some Johny...😂👍🏽

Simpler times back then. Men were men and women were women and everyone knew their true defined roles in society, no matter the struggles we had.
So True!
We had defined roles?
2:35 "Watch that one"! LOL!!!!
Original Airdate: 06/17/23 - He is still on the air? I have missed him all of these years?
This is from maybe October 14, 1991? He does talk about Howard Hughes being dead and he died April 5th, 1976. It looks more like the 70's/80's than the early 90's.
8/12/81
Aired a week after my 12th birthday
After all this time I just now noticed that they have 5 different curtains behind him 5 different colors
0:15 always the freemasonic gesture.. for those who have to know...
Can we go back in time?
No crazy Doc jacket?
Anyone remember the Lawrence Welk joke “ I have to do a one and a two.”
I thought it was was Gina stacciatore
You don't know what you got till its gone
i wish he was around a little longer, I’d do anything to see him or Don Rickles live.. those damn cigarettes…
Nice 👌
The VERY unfunny and political clowns on late night now will NEVER compare to what Carson was---and still IS---in these videos. Long live the REAL "King of Late Night!" 😂
I thought Johnny's girlfriend's name was Gloria Clap-Saddle? Perhaps that was later in life.
He had several - here were at least four I can recall - Gina Statutory, whom I believe was voted most likely to conceive, Yassi Arafat, and his prom date, Stella Lugosi, the ugliest girl in school with a bad habit of leaning out the car window and panting, and Freda Groper, whose attraction is self-explanatory. (yes sexist as hell by today's standards but this is for the historical record!).
Don’t forget Emily Cockunlocker.
All the current late night hosts are pathetic compared to Johnny. Miss him.
Did anyone else not get the parrot joke?
06/17/23?
What was I doing August 12th 1981? Doing better than I'm doing now.
Wow I was 13 days old
And I was 27 yrs. old.
I don't get the parrot joke
This folks is late night comedy. Not communist talking points.
Fun times with very little politics. I miss Johnny & his characters skits ! 😄
It was far from a far right wing country then Tom. Liberal and happy, I was there.
@@alansheiman4818 It was far from what it is now, and yes, Calf gave us Ronald Regan!
Stop it you're making yourself sound foolish!
The only joke I liked was the Raquel one. I know part of the humor is the weak jokes, but that goes only so far.
1981
Do a little research and you will be horrified
It's said you people don't understand how. Evil all of these entertainers were
