No swear words?? Who needs swear words when you're (jokingly of course) attempting to completely denigrate humiliate and tear a person's name, reputation or life's work apart. He could have chosen to be a straight stand up comedian without the insults.... but no.
I thought I was the only one who could watch this when I'm down and it makes my crack up, Rickles was one of a kind (RIP)... I turned to these roasts all the time. It's 47 years ago when comedy was clean and people could take a joke knowing it's just fun, not real or insulting.
I miss the old fashioned roasts. These guys were so talented and had so much genuine fun with each other. This kind of humour just doesn't exist any longer.
I saw Don Rickles perform live on stage twice. He was the greatest. He reminds me of my Uncle Frankie who would always insult you but deep down, you could feel he loved you.
That's called the golden age fallacy, I would say snap out of it. Lots of fantastic comedy going on right now, may I recommend a British comedian called Stewart Lee for example
You are so right.Im 55 and I was there when there weren't computers and cell phones.It was so much simpler and people knew how to think for theirselves.I have 2 friends now that are addicted to the shit and all they care about is staring at the computer all day, every day.They cant think anymore.The simplest things elude them.Gotta check with the computer to see what I should do next. Its pathetic. Hope you're smart enough to use it and not abuse it. Farewell, you young Whipper snapper.
Don Rickles is a master of comedy, a genius, and one of the nicest people on the planet. And he's done it for over 6 decades. Well done Mr. Rickles, glad you had people around YOU who cared. Ya hockey puck. lol
THIS is COMEDY ! I watched all the Roasts as a kid, and NO ONE made me laugh as hard as Don Rickles - I laughed so hard I was crying ! Yeah, my humor runs right along with Don Rickles', Thank You Don! More than once you saved my life with your humor, and God Bless you for It!. The cool thing was - you KNEW he was kidding, and that he was a real class act. I am 55, and seeing all these stars that we knew as kid start to pass on makes me a bit sad because these stars were of a different breed of stars than we see today, more old-school, if you will. and I laughed so hard here, I was crying now too ! Rock On, Don Rickles ~ You Are a Class Act and you will be sorely missed !
I'm 58 and I too watched these as a kid and loved them, but I think I love them even more now because they remind of the many, many comics we've lost at a time when we seem to need them the most. Sadly, these wonderful people are beyond our grasp now, I'm sure there's lots of laughter in Heaven.
As you can see Don Rickles didn't insult Foster Brooks but only compliments been given really shows how underrated Brooks is as a comedian. Rare gem indeed.
Ah, but Rickles insulted best the ones he was closest to. He insulted Sinatra often, and Sinatra would go see Rickles perform regularly for the privilege of being insulted.
They didn't swear (and they didn't have to), they had great routines and the timing & wit to deliver them to appreciative audiences (just like the true professionals they really were)! I for one miss that very much.
God bless Don Rickles,who has made us all aware of laughing at ourselves,and for making this world wake up to the humor that each of us human characters possess.I cherish this man!Thank you,Don,for all the wonderful times on TV,all these years and counting!.....
Watching this I am thankful for Dean Martin- who actually was a very honorable man- quite unlike his persona - but without him we never would have had the comic genius Don Rickles
Note that Don just paid Foster Brooks a compliment, all the other members of the dais he torched. THAT's how good Foster is. THAT's how much Don respected Foster.
I think it's because they all know each other so there's actual love and friendship. Nowadays it's just random comedians roasting celebs like it's the first time they met. They roast everyone with what people read about them in the headlines. There's history behind the jokes in these old roasts.
Those were the day's when comedians were really funny with their side-splitting gags. It is so sad to think so many of them are no longer with us. RIP.
I found that very endearing, he obviously respected him very much. I noticed that also in other roasts, when Brooks performs Rickles seem to be having a ball. A truly great performer and, from everything I have read about him, a true gentleman.
He’s red hot and fires joke after joke without pause! The greatest male comic bar none! I saw him about 30 years ago when he and Joan Rivers came to my city. A hilarious night!
You are 💯 percent right and I loved all of these comedians and now people will take these videos wrong when they’re just wanting to make us laugh 😆 and I am laughing and loving these again
...Don knew that Foster was going to something, but he had no idea that he was going to go THERE; cheating with his wife, over at his house, drinking his scotch, eating his pretzels, and the Velveeta out of the fridge; laughing at Don with his wife with the sound off; Don never knew THAT was coming, and neither did the entire dais.
@@albertpeterson5585 If I'm not mistaken, everyone roasts Don Rickles, then he gets the last word. So, his graciousness towards Foster Brooks was after Brooks roasted him good.
@@RoninTXBR549 ...Don said: "everyone was simply awful, except for the drunk, who was simply charming."; Don had no way of upstageing Foster, so he didn't even try; and, from Don, that is the ultimate respect.
In 1974 I was at Sportmans Park in Chicago for the night racing card and spotted Rickles at a table nearby with his wife and another couple. I wanted to say hello and have him sign my program but I figured I better get a few insults ready to fling at him in case he started in on me. (I would retort with: "Did you get a lollipop with that haircut?") Anyway, I stopped by with my program in hand and politely told him how much I enjoyed his work. He offered me a seat to join them, asked me who I liked in the next race, signed my program, offered to buy me a drink. I thanked him for the autograph, declined on joining them (that really would have been imposing), and left with even more respect for him than ever before. He was a consummate pro and all-around great guy. There'll never be another like him.
Great memory I’m sure, lovely story. He was one of the best ever, up there with Groucho, for me anyway. And wasn’t it great that even while he was slagging off every form of person (race, sex, class etc.), it was all taken in good faith. No one ever walked out, called the authorities or got up on their ‘PC horse’. Classic comedy, we’ll never see the likes of it again. Hope you all have a nice day ✋
I’m 59 now and absolutely loved this era as Nick Sr. Never laughed so hard🥰 and that always made me happy, as he left my life at 14 in 1977 for good from a bitter divorce …these were absolutely wonderful times for my father and me . The world is in a terrible way today 🌎
Political correctness has killed humor. Some people are offended by absolutely everything. And if it offends them they will make sure we cannot see it.
I loved it when Don Rickles picks on the people in the audience. "Oh We have a seal in the crowd" 4:38. Sometimes feel sorry for the poor bugger that interrupts or heckles Don it's funny as hell though. We need this type of comedy back in the world today. We will always miss you Don and the whole Rat Pack. I miss you even now. I wish I had a time machine just so that I could get the chance to meet you. Thank you for making me smile and laugh in the dark world.
Dean Martin was one of my favorite actors and singers. The talent on this show is amazing. Telly Savalas and Don Rickels were in the wild ass move Kelly's Heroes with Clint Eastwood too. Rickles....the merchant of venom! LOL!
Absolutely MIKE DEE! ( I also use the 1000% term) * I am now 54 and remember very well...." The Tonight Show" 5x a week with Carson! These sure were the days! I miss em'
I think Bob Newheart is THE ONLY one at 88 who is still living! SAD indeed, we ALL will have our time, so LIVE baby while you may! ....oh yes and the great Rich Little is still with us!
When I watch these, and remember how I was a young boy at the time and saw a lot of them on the television, I start crying... my GOD how far we have fallen in this country.
Don Rickles never had a script when he was doing his live shows. He was off the cuff, which made him who he was. Mr. Warmth touched so many people. Don was amazing!
This is a quote from Dean Martin's son - Ricci, "While it was true that Dad drank, the drunky routines were an act. On stage, and later on the set of his TV show, Dad usually had a J&B scotch and soda he nursed through the performance. It was almost always a weak scotch and soda. Other times it was just apple juice. I never saw Dad drink a martini, although the martini glass logo was frequently used in his TV show promotions and there have been countless martini bars christened in his honor. I suppose much of the association came from the last name he took, but he was never much of a martini drinker."
Stukaman, U are very truly right Dino was never drunk at all, on any of his TV Shows, He, like U are saying, DINO was only Acting, He was too profetional, a very good actor and a fantastic Singer, millions of his fans still we missing Him.
You're kidding me, right? Do some TRUE reading on the subject of Dean's drinking and you'll see that your theory is a crock. Dean drank, hard. But if I was his son I suppose I'd like to believe it was an "act" too. I suppose all those cocktails he's draining on these roasts were root beer???? It's ok. You can still love the man even if he was an alcoholic and chain smoker. Or are you going to tell me he didn't smoke too? (Dean died at 78... lung cancer).
Everyone who was insulted by Don knew that it was all in good fun. No one got offended no matter what was said to them. I like how Don showed his true self when he would talk from his heart about someone and show his appreciation for one thing or another. He was a good man. Thanks for the video.
One thing that I have noticed in this video that not a lot of people have mentioned is that Don Rickles is one of the most underrated impersonators. He nails down impressions of Dean Martin and Joey Bishop to the T.
Just thinking the same. I've watched pretty much every Rickles video on YT, and he always nails the impressions. And you're right - the impressions usually get overlooked by his lightning wit and comedic genius.
When Don was up and on the mic, he literally had you in stitches from laughing he was always great at his craft r.i.p to a great legend 😊
Thats when tv & comedy was ALL TIME PRICELESS🙌🏼⭐️❤️
Wish this kind of show was on today, that's why I still watch these old shows every week!
This is true comedy. No swear words. Just pure comedy
you can have good comedy with swear words, it doesn't make it any less "pure" or "trve"
No swear words??
Who needs swear words when you're (jokingly of course) attempting to completely denigrate humiliate and tear a person's name, reputation or life's work apart. He could have chosen to be a straight stand up comedian without the insults.... but no.
Who cares
Blah blah blah
People sadly cannot even fathom the idea of comedy without swearing and dirtiness
A comedy legend and a true icon.
R.I.P Don Rickles 1926-2017
@Shoeless Joe Jackson nope, he actually died in 2017
@Shoeless Joe Jackson You really are a clueless asswipe,aren't you?! RIP Don!❤

The world needs Don Rickles now more than ever!
He'd have a Mt. Everest of material to work with! 😂
One of my favourite Rickles vids. Like a bunch of mates getting together and having a laugh.
Whenever I get depressed, I just come back here and watch this over again and again and again. Then I am not depressed anymore.
God bless You. Lord willing, We will hang out with him in Heaven!!!
i fear political correctness will cause these to be lost
Great advice!
Look outside and be distressed!! Look inside and be depressed!! Look at Messiah and get Rest ❤️🙏❤️👍

Brilliant and thanks for the post. Only seen few videos of him as I'm across the waters. But tears in my 👀. Class act. From a younger generation
What an incredible era of real talent, today comedians have nothing on these guys
Only Don rickels. The best of the best thanks for the memories. ❤
Rickles was a genius. This was the golden era of american comedy. These guys were legendary.
a rare moment when Rickles has no biting words when he speaks of Foster Brooks.
THAT was AWESOME.
We need a Don Rickles today but there will never be another. RIP Mr Warmth.
I don't think any comic could make people laugh out loud like Don Rickles--he was pure comedic genius.
Jesus said be the good guy even if it hurts, for this world will reward the bad ones, but for a short time
Have you heard of Robin Williams?
Together with Foster Brooks and a whole bunch of comedians, including a U.S President or two.
These were the best. I miss these shows
I’m 25 years old now and I must say the old times were better! Technology and society has really messed up the way we think nowadays.

We shall never look upon the likes of these people ever again...except on youtube.

For me this is the Gold Standard of comedy routines😀
A great man and comedian from a time when people had a sense of humor and weren't constantly offended by everything.
Amen
The fact was, he was a genuine, kind, sweet and humble man , the total opposite of his comedy schict.

Notice, no vulgar language.
Rickles doesn’t even take a jab at Foster brooks because he respects him so much and how great he is at every roast. Class act forever and always

God this is beautiful. Savalas. Martin. Rickles. Russell. Little. Newhart. A perfect moment.
great great stuff. In this era, would never work, everyone so sue-happy and thin skinned. A great era gone-by

Don Rickles, may you live forever.
I love Don Rickles
Everyone who was insulted by Don knew that it was all in good fun. No one got offended no matter what was said to them. I like how Don showed his true self when he would talk from his heart about someone and show his appreciation for one thing or another. He was a good man. Thanks for the video.

I miss Rickles. Even as an old man he was still funny.
Âge doesn’t dull your sense of humour 🎉
One thing that I have noticed in this video that not a lot of people have mentioned is that Don Rickles is one of the most underrated impersonators. He nails down impressions of Dean Martin and Joey Bishop to the T.
Wanna see my car?..LOL!!
Just thinking the same. I've watched pretty much every Rickles video on YT, and he always nails the impressions. And you're right - the impressions usually get overlooked by his lightning wit and comedic genius.
Here's a great fact: many of these great actors/comedians were World War II Veterans. God bless them -- how we miss them!!!!
2:38 - 3:13 is what you call true class. Unreal, R.I.P. To The best Don Rickles.
Don Rickles is one of a kind rare classic individual of our time.
When I was a kid I used to watch these roasts with my dad. We laughed so much especially when Rickles came on.
