No body ever did a better impression of Johnny Carson than Tommy Smothers. Even a a do it quickly from his brother. Easpecaly the mannerisms. He does it as a compliment to Johnny. It also at least is there way of saying Johnny Carson was the tops in late night and gave us all Opertunaties. Especially just liked every day people. 😁
Hey! Can Tommy come out and play pilot? Only if mom still likes him best and gives him his yoyo back. I met Tom and Dick, in person, at the turning Stone Casino in Rome, NY back in 2000. It was the best night of my life to see their show and backstage in person with them. Tom and Dick... I thank you very much, and for the autographs too. You guys are still the best.

@@bebo5558 Man I sure don't remember a time when the Smothers Brothers wit and timing haven't been perfectly excellent, and seemed honed to a razors edge as far back as I can remember. I'm 66. They've truly got natural talent. Their comedy genius is timeless. Like with Laurel and Hardy, only with a different style. I absolutely loved watching the Smothers Brothers during the sixties. I still love watching them every chance I get. They never fail to make me laugh.
They are just as funny in this skit as they were in the 60s. I also loved Pat Paulson for president. That was also funny as well. It’s nice to see them again.
Loved the Smothers Brothers forever! Got to see them in person in Atlantic City in the 90's ! Totally hysterical! After the show, we spoke to Tom & Dick ! No pretenses! The way they appeared was the way they are! - kind,generous & funny! They let us take pictures with them ! The photo of my sister & Dick turned out to be the last photo she ever took,before we lost her unexpectedly! She had gotten the tickets as a surprise for me,since she knew how I loved them! Laughter is the best medicine so, I still listen to all their albums & it's great to see them on You tune! Thanks for showing this great routine - one of many!
“We’re not the original Smothers Brothers” brought me to tears I was laughing so hard. Only 2 comedians can pull off that style of comedy. The other being the great Bob Newhart. Thanks for posting!!

My dad gave their “best of” album when I was in grade school and love watching/listening to their stuff. My girlfriend doesn’t understand why I love these two but they are legends!
I saw them in person in Nebraska many years ago and although they only did their old stuff, every one in the audience sang along and died laughing. It was a great time.
I think it's been said already, these guys are a National Treasure. They can make you laugh - still, like nobody else on earth. And take note, folks...nothing dirty or filthy...and yet they can make you roll on the floor. They were - and are - the best!
@@robertalan2427 Tommy just had to keep checking Dickies face to see if he was getting away with something...funny!!! from Alan Roberts to Robert Alan...
I met Dick Smothers back in 1995 where I worked at very nice person being a fan of the Smothers Brothers I thanked him for the entertainment he and his brother provided
Oh my, I almost forgot how hilarious the Smothers Brothers were, and still are. We need their comedy and a good laugh now more than ever. I hope they are still going strong in 2020 ....
People praise comedy like this for not cursing but I feel it hits a bit deeper than that. It's guilt free comedy, it just makes you feel good. Really going to lose a lot when this type of comedy dies out.
@@THaulk Around 1964 or so my mom bought a Smothers Brothers LP that had the Mom always loved you more. I loved the album and would play it often. My older sister, by 2 years hated it. I think because I loved it. That was a long time ago.
I bought my first album by these comedians in 1961. They were laugh-out-loud funny even without seeing them. Once you saw Tommy's expressions and their musicality, it was gold! Two of my favorite routines were " Chocolate " and " Boil the cabbage down. " I was a huge fan of their series in the sixties.
So hilarious! Great dig at the Republicans. And here we are again. Smothers Brothers and Laugh-In wouldn't even be on the networks today. Networks have such a tight grip on what we are allowed to see. Same goes for All In the Family.
I have loved these guys since the mid 60s. My grandmother called my brother and I the Smothers Brothers for many years. My brother and I faught over who was Tommy. Years later I finally one. In 2007 I finally saw them live and did a meet and great after the show. I told them that story and Tommy said you picked the right brother. I said why? Tommy said he bet my mother loved my brother the best. Which is part if their skit. The worse word they used was "bull caca". One class act they are!
I have had the pleasure of seeing these two perform live twice in my life. Those were about fifteen years apart and both mixed some of their famous routines with new materials, and everything hit perfectly. One woman sitting next to me laughed so hard she pee'd herself a little and had to excuse herself. Even my wife who did not grow up on them thought they were brilliant. I wish they could have had all their performances captured for posterity. Sure, it would be a lot to look at, but it would be great learning material for the younger comics who think vulgarity is a punchline, and who do not understand picture-perfect timing.
I also was privileged to be at one of their performances. It was in Monterey CA. I can't remember when it was but I know it was way over 5 years ago. My husband and I NEVER laughed so hard in our lives. They were absolutely FANTASTIC. Haven't heard about them since but I thought I read that they are not performing any longer. Their comedy in my eyes is and was the best of the best. I could listen and watch them over and over again and never get bored. They are also great musicians writing, singing, playing instruments and harmonizing - performing their own music. You just don't find this kind of talent anymore! Their timing is spot on and entertainment at it's best in my eyes! I wonder if there is any chance of a reunion special or a tribute to them? They certainly deserve "stars" on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (if they don't already have one)!!!!! Does anyone have any updates information about them?
They made their point, as they always did. So nice to see these nice, smart, civic minded men again, and still on the top of their game. Best wishes to them.
From a golden era of comedy ( indeed, more recently featured on Craigs show here...but, they date back a bit, if 'ya know what i mean?) this is just pure Gold. now back to todays 'crap television and programming.
Such a loss. Tommy Smothers was a treasure.❤
They were going back on tour in 2023. Very entertaining. I grew up with those guys. Funny and clean.

REST IN PEACE Tommy Smothers (December 2023, age 86).
You made us laugh, and you guys made great music. Another legend has passed.
YoYo man. Master.
Tommy’s face sells anything he says. Perfect for their act.
The Smothers Brothers were a natural duet comedy team. I can't remember not laughing at any of their jokes.
I was sad when Craig Ferguson retired from late night comedy.
What a treat no swearing, no smut, no F bombs..just pure comedy
Thank you Tommy for your fantastic comedic humor and songs in our life. Millions loved you.❤
It's great how they can do such a "clean" routine and still be so funny.
I loved Tom Smothers' barbs but funny remarks at the corrupt polical circumstances we had in the sixties. He was brilliant!
Last time I laughed like that was 1969. 😂
Nice to remember the good old days when comedians like the Smothers Brothers were actually funny.
Thank you Tom & Dick!
Yeah but...ask Tom where Harry is.
Say goodnight Dick

"National policy." No truer words were ever spoken.
Great timeless comedy. Blessings to Tommy.
They were good singers too.
My Dad used to laugh like crazy at the Smothers Brothers. I miss him like hell.
"It didn't take any effort"! im blowing milk out my nose!
The smothers brothers
Sonny & Cher
The Irish Rovers
Laugh in
Some of my favorite memories from my childhood.
I love them. They also harmonized like angels. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I especially loved the skit about "Mother Loves you Best" by Tommy Smother. It never fail to make me laugh.

best physical Carson impression
For those that have not seen that impersonation of Johnny Carson in its entirety , check it out on TH-cam! It is spot ON!
It was better than a great physical impression... it was uncanny
I love how Tommy can "turn on" the bumbling, studdering, lying, weird looks, storyteller extraordinaire and not miss a beat!
His facial expressions are genius.
Their routines are gold, but they have had years of success to hone them to razor-sharp perfection!

Pure genius on Toms part. The two of them gave us laughs and smiles to last a lifetime!!
After all these years, they still have it! Copied, but never replicated!
Who copied?
They are just as funny in this skit as they were in the 60s. I also loved Pat Paulson for president. That was also funny as well. It’s nice to see them again.

This is one of the funniest comedy bits I've ever seen. BRAVO!
National treasures! Love them!

"We are not the original Smothers Brothers." That's where I lost it. Love those guys.
The explanation was got me. "They died in a horrible plane accident. One of them was not a pilot." :-D
@@stephenwoehr6500 that was their beauty. The entire intro set up their punchline.
same! what a class act!

Another one of my favourite Smothers Brothers episodes.🥰 RIP Tom.
Episode? This is Craig Ferguson's show
Proof that this kind of humor is NOT dead and needs DESPIRATELY to be brought back as an entertainment art form.
If you emphasize a word, you should spell it correctly.
If you feel the need to critique someone elses comment, than you are what is called an "anal retentive jackass"
@@marksloan5107 Leave it alone, will ya? pjzdreamz was just kicking a dead stick with a horse.
Wonderful humor. It is truly funny.
Yes...despErately!
This skit is timeless!! "a lot of it is true"
I'm going to try that next time a cop stops me. Wish me luck.
It's good if they make so many jokes about politicians that they understand them super well.
Tommy, the pathological liar ;-D
I always loved the Smothers Brothers comedy and singing!!
So funny and so missed, from TV..
I enjoyed these guys in my youth. Nice to see they still have it.
Remember watching them in the 60's...and and a younger Goldie Hawn, shaking!
I love these guys.
Well, maybe not love. You know, National Policy and all...

No matter how many miles you accumulate they don't upgrade you to pilot
They're still hilarious 😂🤣

I don't believe in God, only The Smothers Brothers.
"then why d'you go up with me?" CLASSIC!
what a classic bit, rip tommy, condolences to the families. great musicians too.
Tommy & Dicky were matchless.
Still are.
If only comedy was like that today! Loved this clip! Loved watching them when growing up! Thankyou!
They're both still with us in 2022.❤️
Its 2019 and they still have it. Thanks guys for the comedy you do so well!

Wow, I am a big fan of the Smothers Brothers, having grown up with them, and I cannot believe I haven’t seen this clip. What a joy to see this today!
Tommy is the "MASTER" of facial expressions.!
Just the right look from him brings on the laughs. I even laugh the second and third time I watch it.
Oh my, I almost forgot how hilarious the Smothers Brothers were, and still are. We need their comedy and a good laugh now more than ever. I hope they are still going strong in 2020 ....

Very funny, as always. Thanks for the laughter. Keep on ‘keep’in on.’
I remember them when they first started and thought they had an original formula. Timing was one of their secret ingredients.
Great folk singers too!

I am old enough to remember their early acts. They have always been hilarious!

I still have them
