You got that right Rhonda! Now we're stuck with these late night woke, progressive A-holes screaming at us to vote for other woke, progressive A-holes with a few attempts at humor in between, not worth staying up for.
So did Jay Leno. Johnny was the King at that time and Jay leno was King in his time. Leno did take over for Johnny not anybody could take over that show. Leno got people and musicians people actually wanted to see he was not so tight ass and politically correct as the other talk shows were was cool and Loose.
He was confident in his gift and knew he was king. Young Letterman was great as well but totally different. Johnny was straight charm and quick wit, Dave had this weird alt comedy Both great though. Johnny was before my time but I love hin

That’s why he was the man for 30 years. After your local nightly news, it was this guy, even if you had to rise early or didn’t care for the night’s guests, you caught the monologue.
And not just trying to diss Trump every night with a phony contrived propaganda piece from the communist masters. The "late" shows are just not funny anymore. Like Carson was.
He's funny and pleasant, but he never gets flustered, sets up the guests for jokes, always guides the conversation towards whatever they're promoting, he gives each guest every chance to look good by making them feel at ease, and has a razor wit that he can pull out of nowhere for killer punchlines. And he does it all while making it look effortless. That's his true artform.
Sam gave me my biggest tip as a bartender. He rented the VIP room at a club I worked at in Los Angeles for his birthday party. He gave me a 2000 dollar check at the end of the night. I joked to him I better cash it first thing in the morning before he wakes up and stop payment. He said no worries buddy that check will be good. RIP ❤ I split it with cocktail waitress barback and busboy
You can hear Johnny laughing in the background. He really appreciated the comedians who performed on his show. The world is less special without these two greats.
Sam could be hilarious clean or dirty just like Carlin. George used to do a comedy bit on the Tony Orlando variety show. He was equally hilarious doing a clean bit. We will never see talented people like these guys again.
Sam died just three short years after this episode. The drunk driver who drove into Sam''s lane and hit him head on was given one year probation and 300 hours of community service. The raw talent of Sam Kinison is unique and rare. He died the day after my father did. I was in Virginia at the time. My brother got the news and shared it with all of us. The room was silent. Sam''s star exploded for 7 short years from his big break on Dangerfield's show in 1985, all the way to his death, heading to a sold out show in Laughlin, NV. RIP brother.
Sam talked to God as he was dying. or someone anyway who was talking to him from afar shall we say. He reportedly looked up and said "why now? " he paused, then said "oh alright".
What a legend. I’m 21 so just now found out about him recently, heard a few videos from him, under 10 mins each so I have just scratched the surface. taken too soon..
Sam Kinison; having been a Pentecostal preacher of "fire and brimstone" starting at age 17, was surely doing the same "fire and brimstone" thing on that NBC stage that night in Burbank.
I believe he would give ZERO shits about the cancel culture, too. Most likely would have fought back...but in most hilarious way of Truth and Angry humor. ^^ Would have paid money to see that!
he was super funny for a short time, but hes comedy really went down hill the more famous he got. he burned super hot for a short time, but that brief period was enough to make him one of the all time guests.
@@mrmaxcarter2306 Had it not been for his drug and alcohol addictions, he would have stayed on top of his game. All of that substance abuse took its toll on him -- you can see it in his face and body, later on. I don't think he was very well toward the end. His massive weight gain, heart arrythmia, horseshoe kidney that very likely caused him trouble, and excesses in a lot of areas were all pulling him down. It may have been a mercy that he went out when he did -- I suspect he was in for a lot of suffering, had he lived into older age.
Rickles was the king of wit and insult. Nobody will top him on that. But Kinnison will forever be the king of angry hysterics. His first album title said it all, "Louder Than Hell".
I remember watching this when it first aired. My dad had just come home from working afternoon shift at the plant, watched this with me and about pissed himself from laughing. Sam was always our favorite comedian.
You should familiarize yourself with a "Nobody" that was popular in the late 70's and very early 80's before he tragically died. His name was John Belushi and he was an accomplished comedian, actor, musician, athlete, writer, director... he could do anything. He is without question the greatest _SNL_ cast member in the history of the show. It was a devastating loss when he was found dead. We can only guess at what he may have accomplished.
I never imagined Sam would break out into one of his signature comedy routines in the middle of such a slow & romantic song. Hilarious! Sam was one of a kind. He left us way too soon & too suddenly.
@@BAKER22-l4u 🤦♂️I would hate to hear what you think “Funny” is. Sam was a KING of comedy and you are just a nobody in a TH-cam Comment Section calling his skit obnoxious. Big difference there little buddy.
@@marksommers6764 I've not heard that, but I have heard the story that his friend claimed Sam was "talking to a voice" right before he died, with the implication he was talking to God or something. What an end
@@suffrage4dogs It was his brother, I believe that was following behind him and saw the wreck and ran immediately to him and told him to lay down until the ambulance came.
Impressive! If you're interested in great strong vocal cords at an excellent level then listen to Jinjer singing (Pisces). Not to mention she is so sexy during her performance.
I saw him live twice. The first time I almost had to leave the venue, I was laughing so hard I could barely breathe. Really the hardest I've ever laughed about anything.
I never had the honor to see Sam live, but watched all of his stuff over the years. Like you, I've never laughed so hard in my entire life. I mean, knee slapping, vapor lock type laughing! Once I almost passed out from laughing so hard. His scream pierced your soul and left you in stitches. I can't imagine seeing his routine live....I would have died a happy man...with a smile on my face.
I saw him live twice, too. First time I was a senior in high school. The buddy I went with looked older. He disappeared and came back with four giant cups of beer. I sat there drinking beer and lmao’ing (Sam tore the place down) and felt like the king of the world. One of my best memories.
First time I saw him was in a hotel ballroom in Honolulu about 1989. The room was filled with rowdy military. His final skit, he asked a soldier about the woman who broke his heart. Then he called her on the phone...
Proud to say that I am old enough to appreciate both Mr. Carson and Mad Sam. I had no idea Sam was ever on Carson, for obvious reasons. Just watching this in late 2021. What a treat.
No fan watching this was not on the edge of their seat, waiting for it. Brilliant! Miss this brilliant talent - I died many times ROTF laughing watching his performances. R.I.P. Sam Kinison.
@@DarknessFlameMedia Well, he was very well known in California (even where this was filmed), especially at this time. California is where his career really took off, of course. His name is still a main neon sign in the Main Room of The Comedy Store to this day. People here still love him a lot. I guess if you mean the overly PC types here "he wouldn't play well to"... well yeah, we have those types too... but those are everywhere.... they have always been around, even when he was alive and taking the stage by storm in those days, those types were around and got offended, etc...
This generation does get a kick out of him, anytime they see a modern-day comedian, their pretty-much remnants of Sam kinison's act. Kennison change stand-up comedy to what it is. Along with Pryor & Carlin.
This guy did not die. He has been retooled as 'Cody Lundine" on the series Dual Survival. Now I know there will be some comments, but look at that guy, and tell me it is not him. Hollywood does this all the time. Research it.
@@johndeagle4389 - his voice was unexpectedly good - not great - though I was waiting for his "crazy tirade" and was NOT disappointed! Saw him live, in '88 - near Fairfax, VA. Good times!
@@charlottepasco8 He sounds skilled and talented as a vocalist. So, I'd. believe 'Sam' had training and experience before comedy. He doesn't even need to imitate 'Elvis'. 'Sam' puts the great song over very well Most every note is on let alone how he makes the song flow!
For all his bravado and volume, Kinnison was a seriously talented guy. Would've been great to see him get to old age. He was already a brilliant guru at a young age. Fact is, he was just too smart for the regular world.
Yep, some drunk spring breaking punk ran him off the road on the way to to show in CA. The punk had beer cans in his truck and is still living. I saw him live here in Panama City FL, The man was funny as the Dinkins, I miss him. 🙏 RIP
The first time I saw Sam Kinison, I thought I would die laughing. His comedy was so unique and a fresh take on an old subject. It really hurt when I heard about his fatal car accident. I can't help but wonder what Sam would have said about the world today.
While I was on federal detail to California, I invited friends over & put in my Rodney Dangerfield VCR Tape to entertain everyone. I swear Sam had many of them literally falling off the sofa on the floor belly laughing. Thus, I had to run the tape back a bit so no one missed anything. God we had a damn fun evening.. thanks to Sam ❤️!
He used to come to a video store I started working at about 2 weeks after he died. We had videos of his that he autographed. It made me sad to see them.

Great comment, Brian. You got it. He's unique. Totally original. Most of today's comics are watered down versions of other comics. There are few truly original comics with real heavyweight cred or potential .... even Bill Burr and Chappelle are direct descendants of Carlin who came from Bruce....but Carlin's voices, faces, physicality, political theory and philosophy and language command made him unique. Joan Rivers was unique. No one ever like her since. Or before. Kinison's violent delivery, former exp as a preacher, his cadence and tone and even style of dress made him unique - wholly unique. Comics (young/new) like andrew shulz, mark normand, joe list, kellen erskine...funny all, but none of them unique. Even Erskine: he can thank Steven Wright
I remember watching this when it aired, and I was laughing so hard, I was in pain. Sam was one of the funniest comedians ever, and even though he's been gone for 30 years, I would love to see him perform live again. Just an amazing talent and one of the best ever.
AXL was forced to go to church, and it was also Pentecostal. Basically, his days in Church and the Church Choir made him an international star, with a voice like no other. He made enough money by the early 90s to live the rest of his life. Many people made it to the Big Stage because of their experiences' in Church.
@@emilyflotilla931 his brother was concerned about him. Sam,basically from a Christian point of view, was backsliding hardcore. Went from serving God hardcore, to drugs, sex, and all that. From soul winner, to backslider. Then, I believe at least, God took him. While he was dying he was mumbling as if talking to someone.. He mumbled, No, not now please not now. Then said okay, okay. Then he died.
@@robertnew4507 I think Sam dying as young as he did might be the best evidence that he was a Christian that lost his way. God disciplines those he loves. But, there are some true Christians he just takes home because they will not obey. A Christian that "left us because he was never part of us" would likely be left alone to his own devices till he dies naturally. God does not discipline him , he judges him in the afterlife. Part of this I can defend scripturally, some is conjecture from scripture. But, I did see him one time giving a performance where he ridiculed believers for waiting 2,000 years for his return. I turned the channel. I am skeptical if even a backslidden Christian is capable of such blasphemy. I do not know. I am fully convinced that when I get to heaven there will be some there that will surprise me. But, I also believe that there will be those missing that I will be surprised at not being there. I know I am a sinner, I deserve hell. Not in some pious understanding of scripture that all have sinned, so I must be in the group. But, because of specific trespasses and things I have done and thought. How my heart can be continually dwell on evil that I know is wrong yet I do it. But, Christ said to believe on him and his finished work on the cross. I also believe that He is the one that even gave me the capacity to do that little bit. That is my only hope. But, it is enough. But, I also, believe that one can not receive the Holy Ghost and it not have affect on his person, no matter how small the portion of the Spirit is imparted.
I remember watching this and just waiting for him to let loose, and brother he didn't disappoint me. I was fortunate enough to see him about a year before he died. Sam was truly a legend.
You can tell that Johnny truly enjoyed Sam's comedic and performance value. Clearly he recognized Sam's uniqueness. Seeing people and interviews like this, will never happen again.
Back in the early 80's (before cable T.V. in my area) my sister and I rented his video and we laughed so hard I almost peed my pants. When him and John Belushi died we were really sad. I miss Johnny Carson too. I will smile all day now after watching this clip!!
Johnny was not only the best host, he was also the best audience. The guest worked extra hard to please him knowing that all the people watching back home would enjoy it too. Both Carson and Dick Cavett were from Nebraska and they never lost that genuine interest in what that person in the chair was all about.
YES !!!!! It was genuine, unlike today, like you said, where they are just NOT funny and the hosts feel like they HAVE to laugh. Carson and McMahon were priceless.
Ive met Sam when he came to Cleveland in the early 80s an carried a good conversation with him showIng interest in me. I was told when I'm in LA look him up giving me his ph#. A year an half later I was in LA an called him an told me to come to Comedy Store at 11am but be precise the door will be open. Sure enough the door was open an he remembered precisely everything we talked about when we met prior. There were 3 other comedians there but none I've seen or of an they swarmed me with questions about me an my life, I felt big! At the time little did know they were looking for material!!! Now Sam K was a wonderful an warm person to be around you felt good in his presence.👍🤪Sorry to see his life end. RIP SAM✌️

I have nieces & nephews who never heard of Sam Kinison. I played his Dangerfield show & this. I thought they were going to DIE LAUGHING!! R.I.P.to the original "Screamer" !! The world is a lesser place without him and George Carlin....
I NEVER will forget his first TV appearance on Rodney Dangerfields HBO special, I laughed so hard I had tears streaming from my eyes. So sad the way he was taken, and like many others have said here, I would love to hear what he'd say about the world today. RIP Sammy, Johnny, and Ed. 😢❤️
You can tell that Johnny genuinely enjoys Sam. I still remember how shocked I was when I heard the news about Sam's death. To this day, I still watch his DVD collection, my favorite routine will always be the mortician one. Morbid, yet hilarious in such a sick way. RIP Sam, you're still missed by a lot of people after almost 30 years, damn.

His couch time with Johnny is seriously probably the most composed and erudite I've ever seem Sam act. Very cool to see. Great upload. I was way too young when this aired to see it.
Kinison was dynamic. His act was always entertaining. Bless his soul. He saved his wife life by covering her with his own body in an head on collision. by
I don't have the brain power to imagine how wild the after party was this night. Sam, Johnny, Ed, Doc, and the band all together in a bar. Along with the two sisters.
In less than 45 seconds, Mr. Kinison unleashes several of the greatest rapid-fire lines of all time. "Are you a reptile with a nice hairdo?" "Did you grow any, huh? Are you any taller?"

I saw Sam Kinison live with three other comics. I think it was the third one who was getting badly heckled by the audience. All of a sudden, he walks offstage. As soon as he's offstage Sam comes on & berates the audience members who were rude. When he was done, he just walked off. The heckled comic came back, started over and was shown the respect he deserved. As much as I was impressed by Sam's act, I was more impressed by how he stood by that other comic. In the words of my religion, ohev shalom Mr Kinison. You were taken from us much too soon.
I literally cried the night my tv went out and I couldn’t watch Johnny. And I had the pleasure of meeting Sam AND Billy Idol outside the Eddie Murphy concert, got some autographs and asked him how he liked the show. He said, “I’m funnier”! He invited me to a show and then I opened a gate and let him and Billy in the EXREV black corvette out and they were on their way!
Johnny was a great interviewer. He enjoyed his guests and let them speak, but steered the conversation so as not to embarrass or put them on the spot. He allowed them to gracefully answer or not answer while still indirectly indicating how they felt. Rare talent.
Sam was truly one of a kind. His humor resonated with me. He helped get me through a difficult time. And then when I heard he died, I was crushed. Sam will always be the funniest guy I ever heard. R.I.P Sam!
The classic moments of Johnny Carson just never ever get old. I so enjoy how he just makes all of his guests feel pretty special by treating them so good while making them look good for the audience. Johnny was always so complimentary to the new comics who made their first appearance on his show. A good chunk of their fame they owe to JC...
@@almaburns6562 Thanks for the reply. Also, I understand Johnny didn't want anyone to know he and Ed McMahon were really good friends. He kept this a secret to. Even Ed stated this is one part I never did understand about Johnny.
The most sincere and acommodating I may have ever seen Johnny Carson. The respect for a young and unconventional and off-brand comic speaks up enormously for Carson.
Johnny's marriages made it more reality than comedy for him

@@MarcIverson he was so supportive and funny as hell with Sam. I love when he said to Sam he was very disturbed. So authentic.

NO BODY will ever be the best on talk show host like Mr. Johnny Carson. Classy/Funny.

And not just trying to diss Trump every night with a phony contrived propaganda piece from the communist masters. The "late" shows are just not funny anymore. Like Carson was.
If I may add to 'classy and funny' a-political. He gave it to both sides and never thought for a minute it would be funny to hammer one or the other.
He's funny and pleasant, but he never gets flustered, sets up the guests for jokes, always guides the conversation towards whatever they're promoting, he gives each guest every chance to look good by making them feel at ease, and has a razor wit that he can pull out of nowhere for killer punchlines. And he does it all while making it look effortless. That's his true artform.
Besides Johnny Carson, you have to include David Letterman. Todays Late Night Talk Hosts flushed their legacy down the toilet.

Sam could be hilarious clean or dirty just like Carlin. George used to do a comedy bit on the Tony Orlando variety show. He was equally hilarious doing a clean bit. We will never see talented people like these guys again.
Sam died just three short years after this episode.
The drunk driver who drove into Sam''s lane and hit him head on was given one year probation and 300 hours of community service. The raw talent of Sam Kinison is unique and rare.
He died the day after my father did. I was in Virginia at the time.
My brother got the news and shared it with all of us.
The room was silent. Sam''s star exploded for 7 short years from his big break on Dangerfield's show in 1985, all the way to his death, heading to a sold out show in Laughlin, NV.
RIP brother.
Sam was and still is a legend and his legacy will always hold weight in the comedy world
Sam talked to God as he was dying. or someone anyway who was talking to him from afar shall we say. He reportedly looked up and said "why now? " he paused, then said "oh alright".
But how are we supposed to get our cars home
What a legend. I’m 21 so just now found out about him recently, heard a few videos from him, under 10 mins each so I have just scratched the surface.
taken too soon..
@@ScottyMackAttack drive 🚗
Amazing how he can go from screaming his head off to smooth singing without even clearing his throat.
Now, that's talent
HE´S STILL THE GREATEST STAND UP EVER, SO FUNNY!
Sam Kinison; having been a Pentecostal preacher of "fire and brimstone" starting at age 17, was surely doing the same "fire and brimstone" thing on that NBC stage that night in Burbank.
I believe Sam had a little medicine to help him along.
I thought the same thing. My voice/throat screams at me and shuts down when I try the tiniest of "lifts." I'd die on stage if I went when Sam went.
Huge props to the back up singers, i would have lost it laughing !!!!
Thank you ,Sam. RIP
No doubt :-)
hahaah i'm so sure yes
ikr!😂
The middle singer was having some difficulty. Ha!
@@mountainguyed67 Right? They maaaaay have taken some intoxicants. On a scale of 1 to Sam Kinison, I wonder how high are they were.
We could use Sam Kinison today! He really WAS a darn good singer too! What a talent!
I believe he would give ZERO shits about the cancel culture, too.
Most likely would have fought back...but in most hilarious way of Truth and Angry humor.
^^ Would have paid money to see that!
This my friends, in 2023, is still one of the greatest Carson shows of all time. Imagine how Sam would be now, what a riot
Cancelled, that’s what.
Jimmy Eat World, My Chemical Romance, Slayer and Pantera owe there careers to Sam...haha
Check out Johnny and Cyndi Lauper. He was mesmerized by her.
To this day the funniest comic I've ever heard! His looks and especially his voice were a perfect storm for comedy.
And he was a preacher first.

that smile....tellin us to just wait a second,, here it comes.... AHAHHHHHAHHHHH ARE YOU ANY TALLER BABY?????
he was super funny for a short time, but hes comedy really went down hill the more famous he got. he burned super hot for a short time, but that brief period was enough to make him one of the all time guests.
@@mrmaxcarter2306 Had it not been for his drug and alcohol addictions, he would have stayed on top of his game. All of that substance abuse took its toll on him -- you can see it in his face and body, later on. I don't think he was very well toward the end. His massive weight gain, heart arrythmia, horseshoe kidney that very likely caused him trouble, and excesses in a lot of areas were all pulling him down. It may have been a mercy that he went out when he did -- I suspect he was in for a lot of suffering, had he lived into older age.
Kinnison was the originator of the hysterical "angry" comedy genre and it will never be matched by anyone.
He was a true pioneer and genius.
Absolutely! The original, and still the best - he will never be matched.
Naw . Rickles was the leader .
Rickles was the king of wit and insult. Nobody will top him on that.
But Kinnison will forever be the king of angry hysterics.
His first album title said it all,
"Louder Than Hell".
Dan pena
@@theworldisastage1984 Bill and Sam were actually performing in the same circles early on in Texas...so I call it a tie....
I remember watching this when it first aired. My dad had just come home from working afternoon shift at the plant, watched this with me and about pissed himself from laughing. Sam was always our favorite comedian.
💗 great memory with your Dad
Thanks for sharing, Mark!
Who better than Ssm to have memories of your fsther!
There are not many talents that are truly unique. Kinison was truly unique. Nobody like him before or since.
Don't forget Rodney Dangerfield!
AMEN!!
Wonderful !
Lenny Bruce was a pioneer
You should familiarize yourself with a "Nobody" that was popular in the late 70's and very early 80's before he tragically died. His name was John Belushi and he was an accomplished comedian, actor, musician, athlete, writer, director... he could do anything. He is without question the greatest _SNL_ cast member in the history of the show.
It was a devastating loss when he was found dead. We can only guess at what he may have accomplished.
I never imagined Sam would break out into one of his signature comedy routines in the middle of such a slow & romantic song. Hilarious! Sam was one of a kind. He left us way too soon & too suddenly.
I knew he was just by the way he kept smirking.
I saw it coming, even Elvis had fun w/ this song in concert.
I was expecting it from the first moment. You can read it all over his face. You can see it coming if you look closely.
As soon as he pauses, the audience knows that the screaming rant is coming and they start laughing.
That was one of those Priceless episodes on the Johnny Carson Show. R.I.P. Johnny Carson.
After all these years this is still one of the funniest skits any comedian has come up with.
Funny? NO. OBNOXIOUS? YES!!!
@@BAKER22-l4u 🤦♂️I would hate to hear what you think “Funny” is. Sam was a KING of comedy and you are just a nobody in a TH-cam Comment Section calling his skit obnoxious. Big difference there little buddy.
@@BAKER22-l4u Oh you must be a blast at parties huh? Jeez...
How could he manage to bounce back and forth so well between decent singing and yelling? Must have had unbelievable vocal chords.
Sam's LAST TIRADE was at the accident scene .. he came out of the towncar screaming , " you killed me !"
@@marksommers6764 I've not heard that, but I have heard the story that his friend claimed Sam was "talking to a voice" right before he died, with the implication he was talking to God or something. What an end
@@suffrage4dogs It was his brother, I believe that was following behind him and saw the wreck and ran immediately to him and told him to lay down until the ambulance came.
Love this
Impressive! If you're interested in great strong vocal cords at an excellent level then listen to Jinjer singing (Pisces). Not to mention she is so sexy during her performance.
I saw him live twice. The first time I almost had to leave the venue, I was laughing so hard I could barely breathe. Really the hardest I've ever laughed about anything.
Such a gift to see him live.
I never had the honor to see Sam live, but watched all of his stuff over the years. Like you, I've never laughed so hard in my entire life. I mean, knee slapping, vapor lock type laughing! Once I almost passed out from laughing so hard. His scream pierced your soul and left you in stitches. I can't imagine seeing his routine live....I would have died a happy man...with a smile on my face.
I saw him live twice, too. First time I was a senior in high school. The buddy I went with looked older. He disappeared and came back with four giant cups of beer. I sat there drinking beer and lmao’ing (Sam tore the place down) and felt like the king of the world. One of my best memories.
First time I saw him was in a hotel ballroom in Honolulu about 1989. The room was filled with rowdy military. His final skit, he asked a soldier about the woman who broke his heart. Then he called her on the phone...
So jealous. He was the most ROFL comedian of all time. And if you get divorced, twice as funny.
I love Johnny's reactions when Sam started preaching. Pure enjoyment.
I love the permanent smirk on Sam's face the entire performance. Miss him.
Oh, back when late night TV had some class & was funny. RIP Sam Kinison. my favorite comedian of all time!
Proud to say that I am old enough to appreciate both Mr. Carson and Mad Sam. I had no idea Sam was ever on Carson, for obvious reasons. Just watching this in late 2021. What a treat.
Sam kept me alive during a very hard time in my life. Such a truthful and funny man.
Funny? NO! Obnoxious? YES!!!
@@BAKER22-l4u
You're repeating yourself. Did Sam take your girl or insult you in public or both?
@@thedude3291 Sam was screwed by two ex wives that’s all you need not to take someone’s woman.
Me as well. He articulated what I was feeling.
HE´S STILL THE GREATEST STAND UP EVER, SO FUNNY!
He was and is still one of the best comedians ever.
Johnny really did enjoy his guests, he can't help but laugh at Sam's antics !
Thanks for the heads up
I think he genuinely liked Sam.
He had a Very strong voice. The fact that he was able to scream That Much and still sing that smooth is a clear skill that he worked hard on.
He really did have a beautiful singing voice. It was also funny AF, however nowadays people would be too woke and sensitive to appreciate it
No fan watching this was not on the edge of their seat, waiting for it. Brilliant! Miss this brilliant talent - I died many times ROTF laughing watching his performances. R.I.P. Sam Kinison.
He was one hell of a talent. This generation would get a real kick of his act. He’s hysterical!
@@DarknessFlameMedia Well, he was very well known in California (even where this was filmed), especially at this time. California is where his career really took off, of course. His name is still a main neon sign in the Main Room of The Comedy Store to this day. People here still love him a lot. I guess if you mean the overly PC types here "he wouldn't play well to"... well yeah, we have those types too... but those are everywhere.... they have always been around, even when he was alive and taking the stage by storm in those days, those types were around and got offended, etc...
I’m from Cali and I thought he was hysterical 😎. Taken way too earlu
He was Politically Incorrect. No way his gay jokes would go over these days. And this misogynistic shtick wouldn't be allowed either.
@@DarknessFlameMedia This generation thinks Jimmy Fallon is funny...they'd think Sam was the Antichrist.
This generation does get a kick out of him, anytime they see a modern-day comedian, their pretty-much remnants of Sam kinison's act. Kennison change stand-up comedy to what it is. Along with Pryor & Carlin.
RIP Sam. Gone to soon and I would of loved to hear him today. How crazy that would be.
This guy did not die. He has been retooled as 'Cody Lundine" on the series
Dual Survival. Now I know there will be some comments, but look at that guy, and tell me it is not him. Hollywood does this all the time. Research it.
@@anneinfurna8528 I will tell ya… It’s not him Sam was 5’7” born in 53 Cody 6’2” born in 67 and looks are not even close.
they wouldnt let perform today hes to offensive
Johnny was an excellent interviewer. He was cognizant of both his guest's and his audience's entertainment.
I can’t believe what I am hearing! He’s actually got a beautiful voice.
You can't be serious. He might finish in the top 3 at a Karaoke contest at a small bar.
@@johndeagle4389 - his voice was unexpectedly good - not great - though I was waiting for his "crazy tirade" and was NOT disappointed!
Saw him live, in '88 - near Fairfax, VA. Good times!
@@USNVA-yn6cp as mainstream celebs, agreed.
You know he is a classical trained musician
@@charlottepasco8 He sounds skilled and talented as a vocalist. So, I'd. believe 'Sam' had training and experience before comedy.
He doesn't even need to imitate 'Elvis'. 'Sam' puts the great song over very well Most every note is on let alone how he makes the song flow!
I keep coming back to this clip as much for Sam's singing as I do for the comedy.
He had a great voice.
For all his bravado and volume, Kinnison was a seriously talented guy. Would've been great to see him get to old age. He was already a brilliant guru at a young age. Fact is, he was just too smart for the regular world.
I had one of his sets on vhs, and would pull it out every so often and laugh my ass off. Still miss his comedy today.
Yep, some drunk spring breaking punk ran him off the road on the way to to show in CA. The punk had beer cans in his truck and is still living. I saw him live here in Panama City FL, The man was funny as the Dinkins, I miss him. 🙏 RIP

Psst...hey diqshit, that's only the good "die" young!
Wrong. He was a schmuck. You say genius. Your standards are very low. But hey it takes all kinds.
@@tree7249 I didn't say genius, genius. I said brilliant guru. Check your glasses, genius.
The first time I saw Sam Kinison, I thought I would die laughing. His comedy was so unique and a fresh take on an old subject.
It really hurt when I heard about his fatal car accident. I can't help but wonder what Sam would have said about the world today.
While I was on federal detail to California, I invited friends over & put in my Rodney Dangerfield VCR Tape to entertain everyone. I swear Sam had many of them literally falling off the sofa on the floor belly laughing. Thus, I had to run the tape back a bit so no one missed anything. God we had a damn fun evening.. thanks to Sam ❤️!
I just discovered him last night through my best friend jordie
I bet " wtf is going on reptilians are in control of a pack of hyenas"
He used to come to a video store I started working at about 2 weeks after he died. We had videos of his that he autographed. It made me sad to see them.
Sam is immortal. As long as people watch his videos, remember him, tell his jokes, he stays alive.
Immortal OBNOXIOUS
Agreed. Every time I think about Back to School, I think about Sam. Only one scene, but he was hilarious especially teamed up with Dangerfield!
A unique performer. Totally original. So sad he was lost so soon.
Near the end though, he wasn't quite as funny anymore. It was more antics than material.
This guy did not die. He has been retooled as 'Cody Lundine" on the series
Dual Survival. Now I know there will be some comments, but look at that guy, and tell me it is not him. Hollywood does this all the time. Research it.
@@anneinfurna8528
Lol
Great comment, Brian. You got it. He's unique. Totally original. Most of today's comics are watered down versions of other comics. There are few truly original comics with real heavyweight cred or potential .... even Bill Burr and Chappelle are direct descendants of Carlin who came from Bruce....but Carlin's voices, faces, physicality, political theory and philosophy and language command made him unique. Joan Rivers was unique. No one ever like her since. Or before. Kinison's violent delivery, former exp as a preacher, his cadence and tone and even style of dress made him unique - wholly unique. Comics (young/new) like andrew shulz, mark normand, joe list, kellen erskine...funny all, but none of them unique. Even Erskine: he can thank Steven Wright
Completely unafraid to be himself.
I remember watching this when it aired, and I was laughing so hard, I was in pain. Sam was one of the funniest comedians ever, and even though he's been gone for 30 years, I would love to see him perform live again. Just an amazing talent and one of the best ever.
30 years thats amazing
AXL was forced to go to church, and it was also Pentecostal. Basically, his days in Church and the Church Choir made him an international star, with a voice like no other. He made enough money by the early 90s to live the rest of his life.
Many people made it to the Big Stage because of their experiences' in Church.
I miss these two guys! This is an absolute classic!!
I could watch Johnny bring out the very best of Sam all day long. Two masters of their crafts.
Watch Johnnie’s face while Sam “Preaches.” Priceless
Saw that as well. It was indeed priceless. And Johnnie slowly moves his coffee cup out of harms way.
I LOVE THAT !!!!!!!!
5:06 for the scene :)
I really miss Sam Kinison, he will always be a legend.
He was a Pentecostal preacher. Singing was part of the gig. I knew this would become a routine, but he was a good singer!
Wow! I'd never heard that.
@@emilyflotilla931 him and his brother both.
@@robertnew4507 Fascinating, thanks!
@@emilyflotilla931 his brother was concerned about him. Sam,basically from a Christian point of view, was backsliding hardcore. Went from serving God hardcore, to drugs, sex, and all that. From soul winner, to backslider. Then, I believe at least, God took him. While he was dying he was mumbling as if talking to someone.. He mumbled, No, not now please not now. Then said okay, okay. Then he died.
@@robertnew4507 I think Sam dying as young as he did might be the best evidence that he was a Christian that lost his way. God disciplines those he loves. But, there are some true Christians he just takes home because they will not obey. A Christian that "left us because he was never part of us" would likely be left alone to his own devices till he dies naturally. God does not discipline him , he judges him in the afterlife. Part of this I can defend scripturally, some is conjecture from scripture. But, I did see him one time giving a performance where he ridiculed believers for waiting 2,000 years for his return. I turned the channel. I am skeptical if even a backslidden Christian is capable of such blasphemy. I do not know. I am fully convinced that when I get to heaven there will be some there that will surprise me. But, I also believe that there will be those missing that I will be surprised at not being there. I know I am a sinner, I deserve hell. Not in some pious understanding of scripture that all have sinned, so I must be in the group. But, because of specific trespasses and things I have done and thought. How my heart can be continually dwell on evil that I know is wrong yet I do it. But, Christ said to believe on him and his finished work on the cross. I also believe that He is the one that even gave me the capacity to do that little bit. That is my only hope. But, it is enough. But, I also, believe that one can not receive the Holy Ghost and it not have affect on his person, no matter how small the portion of the Spirit is imparted.
Glad I was alive on this planet at the same time as Sam.... a true “Wild Thing”
Love his cover of that song, lol
Lol, yep ..best music video ever ..a Who's Who of the late '80s rock world...with Jessica Hahn to top it all off.😁👍
That is true. I loved every minute of his comedic genius.
I remember watching this and just waiting for him to let loose, and brother he didn't disappoint me. I was fortunate enough to see him about a year before he died. Sam was truly a legend.
Two of the funniest men ever! May they both RIP.
This is such a romantic song, and his voice is warming! He brings clarity to the song
I miss this comedian , he was so hilarious . One of the best . RIP Sam , you brought a lot of fun and happiness to us all .
The one...the only...Sam Kinison.
And that Johnny guy...he might make it one day.
Gone but never forgotten! We miss you Sam!
You can tell that Johnny truly enjoyed Sam's comedic and performance value. Clearly he recognized Sam's uniqueness. Seeing people and interviews like this, will never happen again.
Everything comes full circle.
Eventually this retarded "woke" ideology will play itself out and we may very well see sanity reign again.
;)
RIP SAM, you were and still are one of a kind!!
Back in the early 80's (before cable T.V. in my area) my sister and I rented his video and we laughed so hard I almost peed my pants. When him and John Belushi died we were really sad. I miss Johnny Carson too. I will smile all day now after watching this clip!!
I used to love this. Thanks for posting it. The 'I feel like I'm talking to Yoda' thing killed me when I first saw it.
I love watching Carson genuinely get taken off-guard and laugh. Unlike today's host, who just laughs at anything.
Like Fallon who laughs at air circulating in the room
Johnny was not only the best host, he was also the best audience. The guest worked extra hard to please him knowing that all the people watching back home would enjoy it too. Both Carson and Dick Cavett were from Nebraska and they never lost that genuine interest in what that person in the chair was all about.
@@brucekuehn4031 and all the guests knew if you could please Johnny, you were going places. He still ruled at that time.
YES !!!!! It was genuine, unlike today, like you said, where they are just NOT funny and the hosts feel like they HAVE to laugh. Carson and McMahon were priceless.
That's the best part !!! Seeing Johnny laugh so hard is a true testament (pun intended !) to Sam's genius.
Ive met Sam when he came to Cleveland in the early 80s an carried a good conversation with him showIng interest in me. I was told when I'm in LA look him up giving me his ph#. A year an half later I was in LA an called him an told me to come to Comedy Store at 11am but be precise the door will be open. Sure enough the door was open an he remembered precisely everything we talked about when we met prior. There were 3 other comedians there but none I've seen or of an they swarmed me with questions about me an my life, I felt big! At the time little did know they were looking for material!!! Now Sam K was a wonderful an warm person to be around you felt good in his presence.👍🤪Sorry to see his life end. RIP SAM✌️

I NEVER will forget his first TV appearance on Rodney Dangerfields HBO special, I laughed so hard I had tears streaming from my eyes. So sad the way he was taken, and like many others have said here, I would love to hear what he'd say about the world today. RIP Sammy, Johnny, and Ed. 😢❤️

His couch time with Johnny is seriously probably the most composed and erudite I've ever seem Sam act. Very cool to see. Great upload. I was way too young when this aired to see it.
What a great clip. This made me laugh and feel a sense of sadness that Sam isn't around anymore. Genius comic.
I can watch this over and over and still laugh hysterically. Two legends Carson and Sam. Boy, do I miss the good old days.

Thank you!
He rose fast, lived fast... and died fast. What a shame, what a talent.
I was lucky enough to see Sam perform live. I laughed so hard my stomach hurt! I miss him!
I saw Sam Kinison live with three other comics. I think it was the third one who was getting badly heckled by the audience. All of a sudden, he walks offstage. As soon as he's offstage Sam comes on & berates the audience members who were rude. When he was done, he just walked off. The heckled comic came back, started over and was shown the respect he deserved. As much as I was impressed by Sam's act, I was more impressed by how he stood by that other comic. In the words of my religion, ohev shalom Mr Kinison. You were taken from us much too soon.
@Barry Obama It was in the gymnasium at one of our colleges. I forget which one, but I'm thinking Millersville University.
I literally cried the night my tv went out and I couldn’t watch Johnny. And I had the pleasure of meeting Sam AND Billy Idol outside the Eddie Murphy concert, got some autographs and asked him how he liked the show. He said, “I’m funnier”! He invited me to a show and then I opened a gate and let him and Billy in the EXREV black corvette out and they were on their way!
Sam nailed it. He managed to be himself within the limits of the carson universe
landed on the moon? hahaha
Well put
Johnny was a great interviewer. He enjoyed his guests and let them speak, but steered the conversation so as not to embarrass or put them on the spot. He allowed them to gracefully answer or not answer while still indirectly indicating how they felt. Rare talent.
Sam was truly one of a kind. His humor resonated with me. He helped get me through a difficult time. And then when I heard he died, I was crushed. Sam will always be the funniest guy I ever heard. R.I.P Sam!
God his timing on his jokes are to good, this ones the ultimate, comming in smooth with the song and then brake down mid song 😂
My favorite comedian of all time!!! his world hunger thing had me rolling
The classic moments of Johnny Carson just never ever get old. I so enjoy how he just makes all of his guests feel pretty special by treating them so good while making them look good for the audience. Johnny was always so complimentary to the new comics who made their first appearance on his show. A good chunk of their fame they owe to JC...
They say Johnny was totally different when there was NO Camera's around. IDK
@@LiPo5000 He was an extreme introvert who valued his privacy. He did not perform when the cameras were off.
@@almaburns6562 Thanks for the reply. Also, I understand Johnny didn't want anyone to know he and Ed McMahon were really good friends. He kept this a secret to. Even Ed stated this is one part I never did understand about Johnny.
Man there no other. He was truly one of a kind. I so miss him. ❤
Thanks for posting this. Sam was truly a comic genius and I miss him more as the years go by. Lovely voice and funny as it gets!
