    I REALLY loved Tony Randall as an actor. He was a powerful force in his craft.
    God REST his SOUL.

    Damn, what a great interview. I learned more about acting in these thirty minutes than I could learn from years in school. Randall was fantastic in all of his work and he is greatly missed.

    Tony was in a different realm of intellect and ration thought. I could listen to him all day.

    What a class-act Tony Randall was! As soon as he began speaking, I said to myself, "Aw, I miss Tony!"

    We don’t seem to have performers like this anymore. He seemed like a real gentleman.

    I was lucky enough to see Tony Randall live, playing Ebeneezer Scrooge in A Christmas Carol in the Madison Square Garden Theatre. It was a great production and he was terrific.

      Both men are examples of Americans who could do fine comedy and tragedy and are decent people with commitments to their families and the arts.

    This is a great interview with a great comedic actor..Tony Randal....and great insight to how the structure of television works...good or bad

    Great interview! And for those wondering if Tony ever got his theater company...he did. In the fall of 1991, so 18 months after this interview, he created The National Actors Repotory Theater.

    25:00 What a sadly prophetic fear Tony articulates. This was taped in 1990, and by the year 2000 can anyone out there tell me if there has been anything produced in the theater, movies, music, fashion, art, or even television that has been innovative, inimitable, or even memorable? In my opinion every decade used to be unique in its own style and creativity. Now in 2021 I can't tell the difference between something that was created in 1998 or 2000 or 2011 or yesterday. It's all sad, lumpy applesauce.

      I we dident have the old movies and TV series we'd have nothing worth viewing since 1980 all the best
      Movies and TV are from 1940s 1950s 1960s 1970s 1980s then everything went downhill fast

      In 1991 he founded The National Actor's Theatre. See his Wikipedia page. Which was one year after this interview.

    Why did he change his birth name? Was he possibly ashamed of his heritage, had a misguided perception that a different moniker benefit him financially and or perceived additional and or improved recognition?!
