    I have regularly been watching hosts like Fallon, Kimmel etc. Recently I'm on Don Rickle's marathon! The one thing I noticed is that Carson never interrupted his guests and never fake laughed! 🌟⚡ Genuine hosting!

Me, when I used to turn the knob on the TV, if I turned on The Tonight Show I kept on going (always looking for a movie). I envy those that saw Johnny and Ed (and all the rest) during the 70's.

Upon graduation we would skip going to the bars if Rickles was going to be on that night & drink beer at home in front of the tube instead. It's just that those days people had real substance, talent & character & nothing comes even close to that anymore.

    A comic genius. What a quick mind! An era that will never be replaced or ever be better. Johnny and Rickles used to do some serious drinking and partying back in Nyc. Sadly most all of the legends are gone. Kids today that never watched the Tonight show don't know what they missed. Imo, no one will ever come close to Johnny Carson. He was smart, funny, and knew how to let his guests shine.

      Only talk show host who came close in quality, in my opinion, was Craig Ferguson. I say this as a 22 year old, raised on my parents old Johnny Carson tapes, and Rat Pack DVDs. When it came to Rickles, Craig Ferguson could give it back. Lightning in a bottle. Rickles' humor is and always will be, absolutely unequaled. Craig and Johnny knew how to let him roll, and give a little back when the timing was right.

    Man do I miss the Tonight Show and Don Rickles. I have so many great memories watching the Tonight Show, the Dean Martin Roasts and The Carol Burnett Show. I may be waxing philosophical but, in those days, we only had the 3 major Networks. We all watched the same shows, and I think they brought us together as a country.

    In the summer of 1988 I drove across the country, from New Jersey to California and watched Don Rickles at Caesar's Palace just so I could say I saw a show. Not thinking this "old fart" would actually be funny I didn't expect much. After all, at 24 years old, I thought only the new "more edgy" comics were my style. Long story short, I have never seen a comic command the stage with more force. He was amazing. The band White Shark was in attendance and I remember them and everyone else dying of laughter. He owed that room and killed!!!
