I disagree, a horrible interviewer. Reading questions off of notes. Interrupting. Probable the worse in the business. Cavette mane it a good interview in spitr of King.
Dick Cavett, you are an American icon, indelible in the hearts of many. Thank you for all of the great interviews that you have conducted. Long live life, Mr. Cavett 👨💼.
Cavett was probably the brightest and the wittiest talk show host EVER. Many celebrities wanted to be on his 70's program. Even Kate Hepburn and Robert Mitchum. *In his hay-day: he was the best.*
@@annemccarron2281 I had a crush on Sophia too,...and Audrey Hepburn. ...what man or boy didn't back then.(!)? But yes, i think D.K. was a bit dazzled by S.L. can't say that i blame him.
@@enormerschwanz imo if like cbn is a distillate media conglomerate of the face of the republican base. well :: like a band making it big in japan or something.
The hosts have a major role. It's like a film director: it's a great deal about them whether the actor understands and interprets a character certain way
My favorite guest on your show was David Bowie. It was fun watching that interview. Bowie tried to answer questions but he was so young he could hardly talk. I like to see how different he became later in life. Thanks for a great video
Fantastic interview it's more like a chat between friends and we the audience are easedropping , the Katie Hepburn and Janis Joplin are two interviews that there was a spark...I hope he tempted into another chat show a class act..
Find it funny that he thinks Fallon is today's great talk show host. It's clearly Conan. But he was definitely the best in his day. So intelligent gracious and aware. Brilliant interviewer.
The thing I don't get about this show is the length. Larry sticks rigidly to a format, doesn't deviate, doesn't really listen, won't allow for a meander off into the woods.
Cavett is just too much of a class act to say anything negative about his modern peers. I personally can't get over Jimmy Fallon's constant laughing and reacting.
I believe even Cavett would agree that his real rise as a late night talk host began when Johnny began to faulter--taking Mondays off, insisting on innumerable month-long vacations and the like. Johnny only got his real steam back when he announced his retirement. Cavett had the good fortune to be cancelled several times (ABC morning show, ABC late night, PBS, CNBC) that he could catch his breath and get re-energized. He remains consistently great.
If you want to see an interviewer gushing, look at any old Parkinson show from the UK. But he came unstuck when he got a little too familiar with Helen Mirren.
Nice to see Cavett showing class in a brainless world constantly making the same boring and lame Fallon jokes which aren't even jokes. Just people being trash.
Can't believe how terrible interviewer was. He's a better interviewee than interviewer. I'm referring to Dick. Just watched the Lucyies & Carol interview. Intelligent my ass. Pay attention, your responses tell that your head was in another room. If the American public think you were really something, I have close to a zero chance of convincing them that this great big entertainment industry is a great big lie.
Unlike King I did get to interview Groucho. It was in the days when I was doing interviews on spools of tape. Among those interviews sadly now lost were Groucho, Ginger Rogers, John Gielgud, Irene Worth and others. Groucho was not a funny man. As a matter of fact he was dead boring. He had a dry, wistful kind of wit which today we might ascribe as gay. I was not surprised to learn of his passion for Cavett as it seemed to validate the feeling I got from the interview. As regards women who had crushes on Cavett...if you watch enough of the shows you`ll see how he comes on to women...worse as Lollobrigida reveals..he wines and dines them before the show..perhaps suggesting there is more to come later. I think June Allyson was among the most betrayed as he flirted with her outrageously only at the show`s conclusion (when she kisses him) looks absolutely revolted. Angela Lansbury catches him out and chastizes him on the show itself. But most women including Janis Joplin ate it up. Hope they got a bit to eat after the show. Sandra Shevey profiled Cavett.full page spread..LA Times `Calendar` c1970s. Geez, haven`t we had enough of Cavett and his faux chavinism. We need a few feminist chat show hosts and not just the gay ones either.
The interviews Mr Cavett had with Orson Welles are some of greatest conversations i have ever seen on a Talk show.
Cavette, brilliant, head and shoulders above the rest. A legend.
Rest In Peace to the legendary mr king. This was a great interview
I disagree, a horrible interviewer. Reading questions off of notes. Interrupting. Probable the worse in the business. Cavette mane it a good interview in spitr of King.
Cavette is a true legend.
As a brit that never had the opportunity to see his interviews it is such a pleasure to look back at all the stuff I missed.
I could love listening to Cavett's voice all day long. The guy is also a genius.
Dick Cavett, you are an American icon, indelible in the hearts of many. Thank you for all of the great interviews that you have conducted. Long live life, Mr. Cavett 👨💼.
Shannon Swift well said & I totally second that 👍👍👏

Cavett's show was the best ever!
Cavett was probably the brightest and the wittiest talk show host EVER. Many celebrities wanted to be on his 70's program. Even Kate Hepburn and Robert Mitchum. *In his hay-day: he was the best.*
Even in his HEYDAY too!
Saw Mitchum on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Never took his shades off and obviously would rather be somewhere else.
Cavett is better now than any late night host today in their prime.
I think he had a crush on Sophia Loren, but he didn't remember. Watch an interview he did with her.
@@annemccarron2281 I had a crush on Sophia too,...and Audrey Hepburn. ...what man or boy didn't back then.(!)?
But yes, i think D.K. was a bit dazzled by S.L. can't say that i blame him.
Dick Cavett was such an intelligent interviewer. He was very much ahead of his time.
+Danimal300zx Absolutely. He's one of my top talk show hosts of all time. So thoughtful.
Danimal300zx was? He still is !
He was of his time and his contemporaries were behind it.
And he didn't try to out do his guests with gags. He was funny, but quite restrained compared to some I've seen.
I don't think you really thought out that stock phrase. He was himself. He lived his time no matter when that was.
Love love love Mr. Cavett! Intelligent conversation is so 20th Century.
My god... to talk to him would be walking though recent Television history. The story’s he could tell just priceless.
I just discovered mr cavette and I find him a supreme interviewer, the best xx
You must be very young
@@ucctgg no I'm in europe we never had him on cable, god bless TH-cam lol
ucctgg what an embarrassing assumption! I am young, but I’ve known about cavett for several years.
@@graxjpg you must be American
@@graxjpg Oops, you missed my point completely. was comparing him to earlier interviewers like David Sisskind and Jack Parr
One of the greatest wits on earth... period.
Two legends. Totally different in interviewing style but both masters of their craft. R.I.P Larry King.
This man aged gracefully
He looks better on the Charlie Rose interview.
Who larry?
He was the man!!
I agree. Class act.
This is a great interview. Mr. Cavett was simply terrific. Mr. King became an Icon too.
Intelligent, funny and the most stylish talk show host. In my humble opinion. ❤️
2 legendary interviewers in the one room.
Dick Cavett is a LEGEND !!
Two legends. Back when the celebs had class.
Do you have some time to go over the dozens of celebrities of yesteryear who didn't have class?
@@royrowland5763 they’re not worth remembering
He still looks so fit!
Two giants of us talk shows together. For an English guy , this is a treat !
It's not the lack of good hosts that's the problem, it's the lack of compelling guests.
Yeah, well, Jimmy Felon is a joke. Late-night has become the P.R. wing of the Democratic party
Nah, it's definitely the hosts
It's both
@@enormerschwanz imo if like cbn is a distillate media conglomerate of the face of the republican base. well :: like a band making it big in japan or something.
The hosts have a major role. It's like a film director: it's a great deal about them whether the actor understands and interprets a character certain way
can't believe this only has 30k views!
And nine months later, there's only 11,733 more views. What's up with that?
2020 first time seeing this. Great interview.
Cavett is an a$$ whole, that's why
@@bneale ???
You can really notice their different styles when they're speaking together.
My favorite guest on your show was David Bowie. It was fun watching that interview. Bowie tried to answer questions but he was so young he could hardly talk. I like to see how different he became later in life. Thanks for a great video
Rosemary: Bowie was coked out of his gourd on Cavett's show!
Coming from a European, I think D. Cavett was your best talk show host.
he should still be doing talk shows
Yup. for his first guest, he should do an in-depth, 45 minute interview with Gwyneth Paltrow, don't you think?
James has a point. There are no interesting guests anymore.
Fantastic interview it's more like a chat between friends and we the audience are easedropping , the Katie Hepburn and Janis Joplin are two interviews that there was a spark...I hope he tempted into another chat show a class act..
The Sofia Loren, Peter O'Toole, Peter Cook, Dudley Moore and Robert Shaw's interviews are amongst my favorite ones.
His voice 😊
Love cavett
fantastic both
Cavett. The best.
Geez, that *flew* past! Grat stuff!
I am amazed this interview only has 1500 views.(!)
Two greats
Dick's quick jokes are so funny. "You don't look a day over... 80" 😂
Craig Ferguson was highly underrated.
So agree.
Find it funny that he thinks Fallon is today's great talk show host. It's clearly Conan. But he was definitely the best in his day. So intelligent gracious and aware. Brilliant interviewer.
robert pirsig Nah Conan lost his poise...I think rather Kimmel or when Craig Ferguson still had his show.
It was obviously Later with Bob Costas in the early nineties that was the best interview chat-show after Cavett. Those shows are gold.
Conan sucks, never shuts up as the guests are speaking.
The thing I don't get about this show is the length. Larry sticks rigidly to a format, doesn't deviate, doesn't really listen, won't allow for a meander off into the woods.
You are very intelligent to have noticed this.
*I wanted to hear more about the interview with writers he did on PBS; e.g. Arthur Miller, Robert Penn Warren and John Updike, etc.*
Sad that this interview-conversation doesn't have ten or twenty times the current 80,000 views.
R.I.P. Larry…..even Giants eventually get taken down!
RIP Larry.
Class act.
Cavett is just too much of a class act to say anything negative about his modern peers. I personally can't get over Jimmy Fallon's constant laughing and reacting.
Rip Larry King
I cannot stand the way Larry King interrupts his guests while they are still answering a question.
RIP LARRY
Thise 2 pros could be there all day without awkward pauses.
Happy Birthday 🎂🎉😎🇺🇲🇩🇰🗽🦅📬 interned with you 1994, at Forth Lee . NBC.. there meet Liv Ullman. Remarkable expirence..🌅
you know there's a larry king in the bee world too.
still miss Merv and Johnny Carson
I believe even Cavett would agree that his real rise as a late night talk host began when Johnny began to faulter--taking Mondays off, insisting on innumerable month-long vacations and the like. Johnny only got his real steam back when he announced his retirement. Cavett had the good fortune to be cancelled several times (ABC morning show, ABC late night, PBS, CNBC) that he could catch his breath and get re-energized. He remains consistently great.
Cavett likes Fallon? OMG It's like hearing John Lennon say he likes The Osmonds.
Can't stand Jimmy Fallon, but I guess it's a matter of opinion.
he is too agreeable
In terms of individual talent -- Fallon is up there
I liked him when ge first started but know his shows are 2 loud and jokey never an intelligent conversation
No it's a matter of good sense.
Agree.
"How old was I when I was born?"
Good question
What a sexy man! What a voice...
I just wish Americans would dress in their own size clothes!
Damn... I would have loved to have seen Sinatra on Cavett's show.
Dont know about sinatra on cavett's show, but Larry interviewed sinatra many times. It on you tube.
Clash of Titans. KingCavett
I wonder if sophia still has the hots for him lol
Cavett very good my fav would have to be canadian brian linehan
this is like the proton pump (pp chain) reactions. two doms. it's like docking
aha! now you see
Billy Gilbert ! Yes
he released a box set of his tv show-can someone upload it here?
3:49 you could get a job waiting tables at an american restaurant.
At some point, men should stop dying their hair. Larry King passed that point a long time ago.
I was thinking that looking at a clip of 80s Lucille Ball earlier today. I think some people find themselves looking more dried up than silver fox.
Funny cavett says Jimmy has it all. I think jimmy comes off as fake and annoying. Cavett was so inviting and personal
When was this originally aired?
The book was published October 28, 2014. This must be about then.
Oh iwiwh our bodies didn't wither
😉
Brain health is so important
Great joke about Sarah Palin, and I like her!
She’s actually very smart if you listen to what she’s saying. She just uses very simple language.
25:27 Today is November 19th, creepy.
When Larry asked if he had a crush on any of his guests I thought he would say Janis Joplin
He was practically gushing over Sophia Loren, I'm surprised he didn't mention her either.
If you want to see an interviewer gushing, look at any old Parkinson show from the UK. But he came unstuck when he got a little too familiar with Helen Mirren.
Long live communism, eugenics and environmentalism
I thought this was going to be a, ‘who’s going to die on live TV first’ contest
Cavett
Somebody needs to tell both of these guys never to buhlshitt a buhlshitter!
No, no one cares about that.
fallon ????
Fallon is the worst. But that's just my opinion.
A true gentleman....he interviews with grace and poise, intelligence and he is a polite interviewer...we need more like him.
They share a bday thts wierd
uh-oh, what's wrong with Larry's hair?
😖
Nice to see Cavett showing class in a brainless world constantly making the same boring and lame Fallon jokes which aren't even jokes. Just people being trash.
I will take Calvert over king..anyday
10:45 Unfortunately, Colbert was much funnier when he was a fake conservative than he is as a woke-left comedian.
Sadly Colbert, Myers, Kimmel, et al are all boring scabs.
Kimmell is great ???🙈
