He faced tragedy with courage and dignity. He was a super man.
The best Superman hands down.
AMEN
Yes! No doubt about it. I grew up with his Superman movies.
yessir
He was as he appeared in real life. Very likeable and approachable. If Make A Wish was popular back then, you know that he would have gotten a lot of requests
He actually did visit children’s hospitals dressed as Superman
Christopher Reeve's greatest role in my opinion has to be when he played Richard Collier in "Somewhere in Time".
110% Agreed.... It was the greatest performance I've ever seen from Reeves! Fully Believable despite the fantasy element.
Jane Seymour & Chris Reeve should’ve been together in real life
@eloisapetermann6810 totally agreeing with you.
The chemistry between them is unmatched in movies between 2 people.
My opinion, of course.
His first movie after "Superman" was "Deathtrap", with Michael Caine, where he turned out to be the married Caine's secret gay lover. There was a very audible groan in the theater when Chris and Michael passionately kissed. The audience just wasn't ready for it at all (not Superman!)...
@igorschmidlapp6987 I didn't need to know that..
Appreciate that..
Look at him so handsome, tall, and healthy. What a terrible loss.
First crush ever. Just adored him!
@@uva3088snap! 😊
Whats height got to do with anything?
@@mavis8933 Comes from the expression, "tall, dark and handsome" describes Christopher Reeve EXACTLY! Really, looks and health are not indicative of a person's personality! How others are treated by the person are far more important! Evidently Christopher Reeve was not only tall, dark and handsome but also a good person! In contrast with many celebrities who while very good looking are absolutely awful people! Hope that explains it!
@@mavis8933 you must be short
What happened? Look how classy, intelligent, and respectful they all are too each other compared to what people are today? Life without social media and iPhones.
Dave Letterman and Howard Stern changed that just a few years later. 🤣
Ok boomer
So true
Kinda weird watching this and knowing all three died 25yrs later in less than 3 months apart, with Dangerfield and reeves it was a mere 5 days apart.
Christopher Reeves, such a classy and humble and good looking guy. So sad what happened to him after his accident. Still was very classy and humble after that too. I agree he was the best Superman!!
Reeve not Reeves!
I'm confused. This is Christopher Reeve. Not "Reeves". I mean...it says in the title.
Christopher Reeve made Superman my lifelong hero. May he rest in peace he was an incredible human being.
Mr. Reeves is tall as heck here. Miss him dearly and his close pal Robin Williams as well. Seems a nice and gentle soul.
Reeve not Reeves!
6’4”
Sometimes forget he was such a big guy
@@kjek1 yup, i met him in perdon around mid 80s, you are so right he was a big & tall fella. RIP Chris Reeves.
You're talking about George Reeves. This is Christopher Reeve, not George Reeves. Two completely different people.
@@xz-187 Dude, it's "Reeve". Good lord.
Oh my God Christopher Reeve is so gorgeous! Can't wait for the rapture to occur so that I can meet Christopher Reeve
The world is less without him.
A very humble man
back when Hollywood was classy
And Steve Lawrence in that clip as well!. He passed away this week. 5 greats...all gone now: Johnny, Christopher, Rodney, Steve, and Ed McM.
Wow. Mr. Reeve was already talkin bout “Superman 2” and had the plot developed. Geez. They knew they had a hit. I also liked how Mr. Reeve gave Rodney Dangerfield props on his act.
Because much of Superman 2 was shot simultaneously with Superman 1.
@leafyutube I 4got bout that. You're right.
@@leafyutube The good stuff was. Then the Salkinds fired Richard Donner, and brought in Richard Lester and Pierre Spengler to screw it up.
Watch The Richard Donner Cut of Superman 2...
@@igorschmidlapp6987 Pierre Spengler was also producer of the first Superman.
@@igorschmidlapp6987 I have. It's not bad, but I still prefer the theatrical version.
What an epic chad. Christopher Reeve will always be my favourite Superman.
Christopher Reeve is the one true Superman. Despite his paralysis he still found a way to keep living and inspiring others.
And we didn't know times like this would become the good Ole Days.
I didn't know the '90s would become the good ole days
@rosesingh339
Right? Imagine how things will be when 2020's will be the good Ole Days. Hmm
I miss him. I miss them Both. Hell I missed the show
So do I.
I miss the late nights with him and Doc Severensen playing his heart out.
Oh Christopher. How we miss you. You were so handsome. Sexy. Gorgeous. The one and only Superman.
What a super man.
Christopher Reeves
Superman meets Rodney Dangerfield
@@MartySlabeyReeve
We've got Superman on the best talk show ever. Can't beat that.
“I gotta sell something here” Johnny was great with the little quips like that
He was the perfect choice.
He set the standard!
Bummer that his discussion about getting his bike stolen wasn't here.((
Johnny Carson 💯 Class Act.
He was such a nice guy. I never heard one thing negative about him. His accident was tragic. The world lost him too early.
I'm sorry you left us so soon....A great Superman....
What a guest lineup, not only Chris, but Rodney Dangerfield and Susan Sarandon.
He was beautiful.
Inside and out. ❤
I miss him. Somewhere in time is one of my favorite movies 😊
Life was simple then - classy and dignified -
Christopher Reeve was the EPITOME of superman
I can tell by his body langue he's kind of nervous.
Incredible how they trained him to fly.
Look at that the guest list that night. But that was typical of his nightly show
If Christopher could only see the technology today....
Reeves and dangerfield died 5 days apart, weird 🤔
Hmm 🤔. Didn’t know that.
20 years ago now. And Marlon Brando too. I heard there is a doc coming out this year on Chris’ recovery after the accident
I Listen to this and I See Class.
🤝👏👏👏
This is how much time has passed since 1978: Every single person in this entire segment is dead now! My God, am I REALLY this old?!
"He's got brown underwear too." 🤣🤣 I think everyone missed that!
He was (IS) The Only Superman for my childhood, both on screen and off.
RIP
Christopher Reeve
(1952-2004)
How ironic about Christopher Reeve. He plays superman, and then has a terrible equestrian accident that breaks his neck. 😔
But then he performed wonderfully in the "Rear Window" remake.
@JohnnyCarson-.. Keep it.
@@joebiggs4387 lol what are these bots here for really?
@@jeshkam Scams. Nothing good anyway. lol
He directed that remake too ♥️
Legendary stick man.
He was a good man and you know what he will always is be my Superman.
He was a good soul. God bless him. 😎
Carson was the best host of the tonight show, sad to see where the show is now with the current host.
The show was dead the day they gave it to Leno instead of Letterman.
Christopher Reeve, Rodney Dangerfield, Steve Lawrence, and Susan Sarandon in the same show. Man, they don't make them like this anymore!
he was incredible. George Reeves also incredible
My baby!!!! ❤ 😢 How I miss him.
He is so handsome! Christopher looked really nervous to be on The Tonight Show.
aww he's so nervous, its sweet
Big fan of superman love from 🇵🇰 Pakistan
En Pandemia he tomado contacto con su fundación,me acompañaron mucho
Superman and...Christopher Reeve on his left hand side. 😁
I took him for granted while he was alive. Now, looking back, I see how awesome he was in every way. ❤🎉
Can you please post the whole show? I know Steve Lawrence and Rodney Dangerfield were on the show. Would appreciate it or any others. Steve and Eydie were frequent guests.
Funny, but Adam West said the same thing about 'no pockets' while playing Batman.
Descanse En Paz Gran Actor Christopher Reeve. Vivirá Inmortal en sus Películas. Entrevistas. Extraordinario Actor. En Octubre 2024. Cumple veinte años de su fallecimiento. Ejemplo de vida. Superman.
Just like Johnny was THE late night host of the day, Reeve was THE Superman of the day. Each had only a couple noteworthy predecessors in their roles. Now, how many people have hosted late night shows, how many people have played Superman? There's addition but there's no succession.
Best of times in America ❤
Is it me or was parts of this just awkward/cringe?
Such a hero ❤ I loved him so much..A real superman..films were outstanding 😊 never forgotten 🙏🙏 RIP
Interesting but sad thing to find out
Christopher Reeve died five days after Rodney Dangerfield
Via mail,y muchas literatura me incentivaron para fijar metas, realmente es un Súper Héroe de la vida,
..he and Robin Williams were at Julliard at the same time.
Christopher Reeves was an exceptional human being. Inside and out and all around. It's nice to see him on Johnny Carson.
*Reeve. No S.
Christopher reeve was such a gemtleman and refused to see the bad in anyone no matter who you were and where came from, he was literally the embodiment and born to play superman. Yes there are and will be actors who will wear that iconic hope shield on their chest though will never ever come close to surpassing what he brought to the screen. A super genius
$4.50 lol
So handsome,🩷🧡🩵💛💙💜💚❤️
un très bel homme, c'était le meilleur Superman
Is it possible to post the whole show? Love Steve Lawrence. Wish more would of Steve and Eydie would be possible. Johnny loved Steve and Eydie. We lost Steve and one was posted. Just love it. Christopher Reeves' son Will Reeve is a reporter on ABC looks just like him.
Met him and Eydie once and both were very nice.
Thank you for posting this interview!
GOD BLESS HIS SOUL 😊⭐️👍⚡️😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
FLY ME TO THE MOON….
"Superman is a friend when you need one."
Christopher Reeve.
I Love Superman III when Richard Pryor says “Thank the Lord for Superman”
I got to see the movie tonight with my dear friend of mine ❤❤❤❤
Anyone else wonders what was the music at the start ? Loved Doc’s band.
He will always be the best superman
RIP Christopher Reeves.
Don’t ride horses.
Una perdida inmensa para muchos!!!!
So where is the segment with Rodney? 🙂
Didn't he play Hans Solo?
I get misty eyed when watching this, not only because in my opinion Mr Reeves was the best Superman but because he was a decent, gentle human being with so much integrity and dedication.
And of course Johnny was the very best host, oh, how I miss those days. 🇺🇸
*Reeve. No S.
@@Geeksmithing Oh Shoot! I’m sorry, I promise I won’t do it again! I beg your forgiveness a million times.
The american version to Roger moore.
A class act…
👌👌👌
In Memory of Christopher Reeve 🌻
Superman performing Christopher reeve, unfortunately he made up his mind to be mortal 😢
I'm surprised how few jokes Reeve makes are well received by the audience. I think that until that moment, people didn't recognize how transparent and good a person he really was. I think they believed he was playing a character even in real life. I think there was still an air of jealousy and envy of the popular friendly Adonis who personified Superman.
Option 2: The audience is so enthralled with him that they are in a trance.
Christopher Reeve Portrayed Superman in the movies,Helen Slater Portrayed Supergirl from 1984 Movie Spin-off Before Melendy Britt Voiced She-Ra in the Secret of the Sword (1985) Terri Hawkes and Stephanie Sheh Voiced Sailor Moon in the anime movies until Brandon Routh return as Superman in Superman Returns (2006) with Red Boots,Blonde Hair and Red Cape
Rodney was the first guest!
I think Steve Lawrence was.
@@seattlewa8500Oh right. I didn’t know who that was.
Looks like Reeve and I both made the mistake of forgetting him.
So, this is the guy Eminem has a strange obsession with. Seems cool.
he was so handsome
What's crazy about this vid is that Christopher Reeve died just five days after Rodney Dangerfield.
He was murdered
👍
The real one and only Superman, on screen but most importantly, off screen.
Bring back enjoyment in 2023-24 instead of George Orwell
