Johnny was simply the best when it came to opening monologues. We knew what we had when it was happening. We knew what we lost when he stopped. Saddest part is we assume to have had advanced since then. All good things come to an end i guess. ✌🏻
Plus watching the commercials over seas at time I Missed Hearing Him Laugh Ed Had Serious Laugh Regardless What People Think Can't Forget Time They Did Carnac Answer Was Siskboombah Describe The Sound Made When A Sheep Explodes Eds Laugh Was Something Else Along With Johnny's
@Andrew Wilson Early Letterman was fantastic, than he seemed to just become kind of nasty to his guests. But the music acts were always fantastic! The Larry Bud Melman years were so hilarious.
The commercials are such a time capsule! I speak with kids today and they can't even tell me who JFK was! Maybe these commercials ought to be shown in history classes as a way of looking at life gone by, when TECH was not a thing and people had to actually communicate face to face! What a concept!

I just remembered something i haven t thought about for 55 years. When i was a kid i can remember when i thought that archie moore the boxer whom i had never seen was the same guy as archie moore the n y yankee and thinking he s pretty small to be a boxer. I guess he boxes in the off season Back in the day when a lot of athletes had to have another job in the off season. I bet kids won t believe that
1:11:11 - It is Johnny's reaction to the dinner being served to Steve here which makes this pure gold. Johnny was one of rare performers who could say a lot and make you laugh just with the way he looked. Oliver Hardy had the same talent.
5:15 - British viewers did in fact start to see Carson's show from October 1981. However unlike US viewers who saw it nightly, viewers in Britain only saw edited highlights from the previous week of shows, all condensed into a one hour Saturday night broadcast on the ITV network.
Richard Benjamin and Paula Prentice are still married. He’s a keeper. He sounds just like my husband who passed away after 30 years of being together. He was one in a million. 💕
It’s funny Simon and Simon was on for 8 or 9 years. I remember on one of the Johnny Carson’s show he made fun of Knight Rider too. You never know about shows.
But,Simon & Simon was a much better show than that idiotic Knight Rider which only lasted 4 yrs....4 years to long. Look at the crap today that has gone on for years.There is many more idiots today keeping those shows on the air...just like they did with Knight Rider and the A team.Survivor is a good example....
I guess this is from prime time. I can remember when Johnny did his anniversary shows at 11:30 and they would normally run to 1:30. Anyone else remember that?
No, this was just a special. When Tonight first started with Steve Allen, it was on beginning at 11:15pm for the New York City station, and other stations, as back then local news was only 15 minutes long. Then at 11:30pm they did a restart as the majority of the network joined in, and the program ran until 1:00am. Then after a couple of years, the local newscasts around the country expanded until 11:30pm, so it became a 90 minute broadcast. At that same time, Carson did not want a rerun of his 90 minute broadcast airing on Saturday nights, so NBC wanted to fill the time in lmid 1975, and it was then that Saturday Night Live began broadcasting. Also, when Johnny Carson moved from New York to Burbank, in his new contract, he reduced it to 1 hour in length.
"Bob the Gardener unexpectedly passed in 1982. The factory just over the trees there is STILL going full tilt." (I sincerely hope that actor from SC is still with us.)
@30:50 That's the exact same style of Armstrong flooring that my late parents had installed that very same year in the home that we grew up in, to replace what was originally put in when they had the house built for them a few years earlier, back in '72.
Could you imagine the backlash that the "Zieg Heil Charlie Brown" 19:33 and "Ray Charles, The Early Years" 20:10 would have created if that show were on today? That very well would have been their last show. After the first commercial, the show would have not come back and the west coast feed would have never aired. CNN, MSNBC and other media would have had endless panel discussions about how whether "The King of Late Night" was always a closet racist or somehow became one during the Trump era. Johnny and Ed would have to apologize and take a break and NBC executives would announce that the show would be temporarily hosted by others. Then after about 3 months, NBC would announce that Johnny and Ed would not be coming back and that there would be a new host and the show would go in a completely different direction. Of course, Doc, the band and the rest of the production staff would be purged as well.
Kenneth, the sad part is that you are 100% correct. That is an entirely plausible scenario unfortunately. It’s so disheartening to see how egregiously sensitive and easily offended our country is and, how television, movies, and companies capitulate to “cancel culture” and “wokeness”. The sad part is, when true, real racism rears its head, it’s lost in the all the noise of “fake racism”, which is just a collection of people being ultra-offended for absolutely no reason whatsoever. They are their own worst enemies.
How cool would it be to have been the writer that wrote the joke that comes in shortly after the 23 minute where Johnny talks about when he and ed laughed hardest on the show perhaps of all time... !!!
I agree. I stopped watching late night after Leno..The cast of characters that were offered the opportunity to entertain us after Leno should all be taken out to the woodshed andlocked up never to be let out again!!
Carson was simply the best at doing these interviews and monologs. Only Stephen Colbert comes close to Carson. It was so nice to watch Johnny actually listen to the people he interviewed, most of the new hosts are so greedy for a laugh that they basically ignore their guest and just talk over or embarrass them. (Think Ellen Degeneres).
It’s from the “American Gigolo” Original Soundtrack, composed by Giorgio Moroder, and you’re correct that it is an instrumental theme on Blondie. The entire OST is pretty cool, check it out sometime.
I haven't watched the Tonight Show since 1992. I tried to watch Kimmel once. Carson has to be rolling in his grave over how Kimmel has absolutely ruined that show.
Even David Letterman Retired From This Show And Unlike Jay He Kept Word Didn't Backstab Successors Like Jay Leno Did Conan O'Brien Im Glad David Letterman Supported Conan And All Jimmy Fallon Knows is politically correct Johnny would Be Sick Little No Humor Today On These 🌃 Shows
@@lorenepperson2678 All Fallon knows how to do is bringing back guests who were rightly banned from “The Tonight Show” due to their betrayal of Carson. People’s Exhibit “A”: Joan Rivers, who lost all credibility by making her regular guest appearance with Carson before the whistle was blown on her secret deal with Fox.
Johnny says this is the first episode to be seen in England. Wasn't there a time, earlier, when "The Tonight Show" was seen in England and it did not work out?
Jane Pauley burning the candle at both ends with the NBC News Update @ 1:01:46 She anchored TODAY M-F and the Sunday Nightly News. But anchoring the late night updates meant she had to stay up past her bedtime!

My room mate does dishes exactly like Richard Benjamin's wife. Tepid water, food floating around in the water, swishes it around a little, runs a Sponge over it. Done!
Of course, we know the jokes he would tell about Trump. In fact, only a few months before “The Tonight Show” ended (NBC should have gone with a different title when they gave the 11:30 time slot to Leno.), he included a Trump joke into a “Carnac” sketch. If memory serves me correctly, it went something like this: Answer: “Marla Maples.” Question: “Name someone who dumped the Trump.” Granted, they reconciled for a time, but eventually she did ‘dump the Trump’ for good. In all honesty, I think Carson would have been in his element the last several years. It would have been reminiscent of his monologue jokes about Nixon and Watergate.
Didn't miss out on Wild America did you? Miami Vise and Crime Story were a few that shouldn't have been missed. All in the Family,Sanford & Son,Jeffersons,Odd Couple,Barney Miller,Goodtimes,Kojack, Benny Hill,MASH were great ones to see but they were from the 70's.
He would wear fake beards for sketches. In the commercial sketch seen here, he was impersonating Orson Welles, who by that time, for whatever reason, decided to grow a beard.
@@thomash.schwed3662 Johnny actually did come on the show with a real beard he grew out. I have it on dvd. Didn't look good on him. Made him look 10 years older. It was the only time he did that.
Especially when u can pick on politicians regardless liberal/ conservative which is what Johnny Carson did as for as politicians they were fair game for as Johnny was concerned he would be disgusted with Jimmy Kimmel
