I loved Cavett's show almost as Saunders apparently did. But I'm disappointed that Cavett felt the need to turn this interview into his show. The kindest interpretation is to believe his initial claim that he misunderstood his assignment and thought he was going to be the subject of the interview, not Saunders!
Dick worked for Paar in the early '60s and The Exorcist was published in 1971. Either Blatty wrote it several years before it was published (and was bragging about it) or Dick is getting something wrong.
New title suggestion: George Saunders patiently listens to Dick Cavett.. 421 views including me. Thanks

Sometimes, we have the power to fulfill a person's childhood dream...
Anyone know where to find the Saul Bellow interview he mentions at 59:36?
George is genuinely witty
Dick Cavett's not as sharp as he used to be, but this is so great, thanks for uploading.

An interview about Dick Cavett. Hard to watch.
Cavett is the Harry Morgan of the day.
