Jimmy Stewart's self deprecating humor is charming...he never mentions his accolades or his military achievements. Always humble. We will never see the likes of him again. Thank you for uploading this video.
Fantastic footage. Only the legends were interviewed by Johnny and they were done with dignity, class and sophistication. Carson was the gold standard!
Always loved it when Jimmy Stewart visited Johnny. Still brings a smile to my face. I miss them. RIP, darling gentle men, and thanx so very very much, for the magic, music, and memories.
This was the set, with the colored circles, that was used when I first started watching Carson in 1969 at age 14. Since my family did not have a color TV I had no idea the circles were uplit with multi-colored lights. I wrote away and got tix for the Feb. 10, 1970 show (this one is said to be from 1/12/70). It was a thrill and a half for a not-yet-15 year old to walk into studio 6B at Rock Ctr and see the set in vivid color (not only did we not have color TV, TVs at the time did not have the high-def resolution of today). The tix clearly said that you needed to be 18 to get into the studio. I dressed in the only jacket and tie I had, and did not have the sloppy long hair typical of the times, so I felt I'd either pass for close-enough-to-18, or the pages would be in a good mood and not notice. I was with a parent, and I guess it worked - I got in several times prior to the show moving to LA in 1972. To me, watching this show, meant for adults, felt like the most adult thing I could be doing at those times, and being in the audience was amazing to me as I said above. I'm not sure there is an equivalent today, but I suppose there must be.
Nope. One of a kind experience. Like being in Fords Theatre in 1865. Johnnys favorite joke. He once dated Gina Statuetoria. Her nick name was, Mrs Lincoln because every guy in town took a shot at her in the balcony.
@@TubenIt83 I believe one of the guests was Marlo Thomas, then in the last season of That Girl - she talked about cutting off her bangs. I have looked this up in databases and I'm not sure she is on the list.
Same here I wonder where the person who posted this got it from. I DVR the one's on TV now. They're better than any of the lame untalented hack's on late night now. Fallon ruined the Tonight Show!
They found some in a cave vault they used in Utah I think, and some were discovered in archives of the Armed Forces Network that had taped them to sho overseas.
Causing harm all over the world 💥🚑 ⚰️. Also, realise - actors are just persistent liars, promoting sick agendas for the same deplorable families/secret society, that plan war and make you work to exist on Earth 💙🌿.
This guy really had a wonderful life. A Princeton graduate, one of the best actors ever, a brigadier general in the Air Force. I hear he wound come out of his house to talk to his fans. They don’t make celebrities like this anymore. He was truly a great guy.
Jimmy came from a religious family and was very involved in the development of his church in Beverly Hills. Jimmy was a true hero in WW2. He flew 20 bombing missions over Germany in a B-24. He remained in the Air Force till two years after this appearance on the Tonight Show. Retired as a Brigadier General his final official flight as a observer was in 1966 in a B-52 bombing mission over Vietnam.
This is a terrific gem! I read where there are only 38 full-length shows in existence from the first ten years. Yet, Carson Entertainment is not sharing them anywhere.
Jimmy Stewart, was the Complete Gentleman, & a Fantastic Actor. What He said about being Proud of His Military Career. Was Absolutely Awesome & Truthful too the Core. As I consider Him along with Millions of Others, too be this Nation & Many Other Nation's. Greatest Generation so Far Produced in this World's, short Existence. My Parents we're also a Part of that Great Generation 😊😊 and I Still miss Them Terribly. Thank You for the Short Glimpse Back to those Memorable Nights with Johnny Carson, & His Awesome Guest's. Wyo, Robert, 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸👍😎🤔👍🙏🙏🙏
This is FANTASTIC! Where do these clips from pre 1972 come from? There was no collecting or saving tape was there? I wish there some Jack Paar out there too.
James Stewart was a military legend, but Ed McMahon was a aviator with the USMC and had a few achievements of his own. From Ed's wiki page... After completing the college requirement, McMahon began his primary flight training in Dallas. This was followed by fighter training in Pensacola, where he also earned his carrier landing qualifications and was designated as a Naval Aviator. He was a Marine Corps flight instructor in F4U Corsair fighters for two years, finally being ordered to the Pacific Fleet in 1945. The orders were canceled after the atomic bomb attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. As an officer in the Marine Corps Reserve, McMahon was recalled to active duty during the Korean War. He flew an OE-1 (the original Marine designation for the unarmed single-engine Cessna O-1 Bird Dog) spotter plane, serving as an artillery spotter for Marine artillery batteries and a forward air controller for Navy and Marine fighter bombers. He flew a total of 85 combat missions, earning six Air Medals. After the war, he remained in the Marine Corps Reserve, retiring in 1966 as a Colonel. In 1982, McMahon received a state commission as a Brigadier General in the California Air National Guard, an honorary award to recognize his support for the National Guard and Reserves.[
great . there’s a later interview w Stewart , but it’s. a l’il painful as Jimmy slows down thru the years. Carson , being shrewd , quit the business and no one ever seen him stutter. Joe Biden , are ya listen n’n ?
James Maitland Stewart (Indiana, 20 de mayo de 1908-Beverly Hills, 2 de julio de 1997), (o Jimmy Stewart, especialmente en Estados Unidos), fue un prolífico actor de cine, teatro y televisión estadounidense ganador de un Premio Óscar. 🎙️🎙️📺📺🎭🎭🎤🎤🎥🎥
no doubt jimmy a classy kind human with great humor.. but ive never found him be the great actor he hyped to be, he always seems to over do it.. and ive never been able forget or suspend disbelief that the character he plays is that character, its always oh thats just jimmy stewart pretending be someone else but its just him..
His naturalness and effortlessness is his star quality. Ever see "Mr Hobbs Takes a Vacation"? Ever see "Vertigo"? I am very surprised by your impression of his acting.
@@gkennedy2998 yeah ive seen many of his films, and vertigo is a very great film.. but thats one that stands out that his acting is over the top.. or that he hasnt transformed himself into that character, but merely going though the motions of acting!

It's so loud with the boasting of children who will never achieve a fraction of what he did without presumption.
Fantastic footage. Only the legends were interviewed by Johnny and they were done with dignity, class and sophistication. Carson was the gold standard!
One of the best. Grew up watching Jimmy Stewart and always loved him. Such a wonderful and accomplished- in many ways- gentleman.
Stewart was a true gentleman, the likes of which are rather scarce nowadays.
Definitely made some classics and he was a class act!
absolutely
Always loved it when Jimmy Stewart visited Johnny.
Still brings a smile to my face.
I miss them.
RIP, darling gentle men, and thanx so very very much, for the magic, music, and memories.
Fabulous actor who can perform drama, comedy & adventure. Amazing talent !💓
Don't forget his westerns , he made some classics. Liberty Valence is one of my favorites. As well as the Shootist!!!
definetly

What a gem!! I thought much of the first 10 years of the Tonight Show was lost.
Same here I wonder where the person who posted this got it from. I DVR the one's on TV now. They're better than any of the lame untalented hack's on late night now. Fallon ruined the Tonight Show!
Damn shame NBC erased all the new York shows.. Only when he moved to Burbank did they realize "save these"
They found some in a cave vault they used in Utah I think, and some were discovered in archives of the Armed Forces Network that had taped them to sho overseas.
same with me
Most of the first 10 years are gone but we do have some clips, just not full shows.
Jimmy Stewart said he was more proud of his military career than any movie he had starred in.
Yeah he was a true American patriot and hero!
That's good Jimmy Stewart was proud of his military career

It doesn't sound like he ever really recovered from it.
Jimmy Stewart became a brigadier general and flew combat missions starting in 1944.
Hard to find actors anywhere close to this stature anymore.
Most actors aren’t like this because Jimmy is one of a kind.
25 missions over Europe and also one combat mission over Vietnam as a 1- star general
Yes, many people don't know that. He never boasted and rarely spoke of it due to the traumatic nature of his experiences.
Absolutely right and he was decorated , I forgot what rank he finished in?
He was in an episode of My Three Sons, portraying himself, and in his uniform. It was a wonderful speech he gave...you should look it up on you tube.
This guy really had a wonderful life. A Princeton graduate, one of the best actors ever, a brigadier general in the Air Force. I hear he wound come out of his house to talk to his fans. They don’t make celebrities like this anymore. He was truly a great guy.
I guess it was fitting that he played in the movie It's A Wonderful Life" 😊
Always love Jimmy, a great person, actor and hero and so Cute!
Jimmy came from a religious family and was very involved in the development of his church in Beverly Hills. Jimmy was a true hero in WW2. He flew 20 bombing missions over Germany in a B-24.

I adored this!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is a terrific gem! I read where there are only 38 full-length shows in existence from the first ten years. Yet, Carson Entertainment is not sharing them anywhere.
The original air date on this show was Monday, January 12, 1970.
this was awesome.......more of these old 60's clips please
Another rare gem with legends.
Jimmy Stewart, was the Complete Gentleman, & a Fantastic Actor.
What He said about being Proud of His Military Career. Was Absolutely Awesome & Truthful too the Core.
As I consider Him along with Millions of Others, too be this Nation & Many Other Nation's. Greatest Generation so Far Produced in this World's, short Existence. My Parents we're also a Part of that Great Generation 😊😊 and I Still miss Them Terribly.
Thank You for the Short Glimpse Back to those Memorable Nights with Johnny Carson, & His Awesome Guest's. Wyo, Robert, 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸👍😎🤔👍🙏🙏🙏
Love the Johnny in NY 1960s clips. He always didnt have gray hair!
Wow! This must be extremely rare! I've never seen an episode or any material of The Tonight Show from this era yet! Great stuff to see!
Jimmy Stewart he was a good actor and Johnny Carson he was a great host of the Tonight Show and he was one of the best
This is a gem. 💘 Jimmy Stewart
This is FANTASTIC! Where do these clips from pre 1972 come from? There was no collecting or saving tape was there?
I wish there some Jack Paar out there too.
Yes, tv shows have been saved and archived since the earliest days of broadcast. Initially, they were on film and then eventually transferred to tape.
If you could give the year of these interviews it would be great.
Elsewhere in the comments, a user has ID'd it as January 12, 1970.
Starving artists for sure 👍
I watched this when I was a little girl. I never had a bed time so I watched Johnny every night.
@Laurence O'Connor What?
Jimmie stewart,a class act
I agree
I really love james stewart what a wonderful person hes up in heaven with clarence❤
What a life Jimmy Stewart had
Brigadier General Stewart.
Mr.stewart was clearly johnny Carson's most favorite guest.

One of the commenters wrote this was from January of 1970... Stewart was 61 YO at the time and Carson was 44.
Jimmy was a Brig. General in the air force, flew B-36, 6 turning and 4 burning.
Come on now, the Peacemaker wasn't that bad haha
Legends
All are so classic...
If you love Jimmy Stewart, you might want to read the book about his long friendship with Henry Fonda. It is fascinating and illuminating!
Written by Scott eyman, which i have, and i very highly agree.
Anatomy of a Murder.....what a great film that is.
Beau. ❤️
Johnny’s lookin’ Dwight Schrute chic!
They don’t have actors like Jimmy and others from those days
Which super bowl aired before this show? Must have been one of the first 5
From 1970

🤣 truth FJB!
Where did you get a copy of this? Johnny Carson said that these early years videos were destroyed …and he was angry .
Don’t ever play Lady of Spain again!!

I grew tired of Jimmy's aw shucks act in his later years.
I so enjoy all the clips and now a pinch and zoom option…thank you!!!😊
I understand Jimmy Stewart was somewhat of a role model for Johnny.
