The best part was that the first cut to the audience was to Larry David, and you could tell he'd already been standing. You can see him SHOOT up as soon as Kathy was about to say "UUUUUUUPPPPP!" Larry knows what's up.
I can see the director in the production boost screaming at the monitors "Come on Rickles, read the teleprompter!!! Tell those guys down there to motion to him to GET ON WITH IT!!! .... Jesus Christ!" hahaha
Rickles was a gangsta. any situation, he would kick the door off the hinges and start verbally slapping people around before those in the room knew what hit em.
Well said. They didn’t understand it because it wasn’t rehearsed garbage. Rickles is a true legend. Class and the funniest delivery He invented attitude comedy And if he didn’t invent it he made it his.
I'm 25 yo from North East India admiring and laughing at every Don Rickles Dean Martin celebrity "man of the hour" roast. R. I. P Don u got your cookies 🙏
Whenever Rickles went on Carson, nothing was written or planned. Carson and his team knew better than to keep to a script when Rickles was around due to his spontaneous wit. Truly the last living comic legend. We will never see another comedian like him ever again. Thanks for all the laughs, Don:)
Don went right up on stage and roasted everyone in front of it and in back of it at the same time. What a guy. The Maestro of Malice. We miss you dearly.
1:29 "Let's read these funny lines they wrote for us." So priceless, and so on-the-money. The only time the segment dies is when they stick to the script. (Addendum, five years later:) Kathy Griffin has finally done something I can admire, and even enjoy... She shows deference to Rickles.
Not a big Kathy Griffin fan but she nailed it with that "GET UP." Those dummies in the audience probably didn't realize Rickles is more of a legend than ANY of them will ever be.
I am 20 but I grew up with lots of Dons stand up, his movies and the roasts he did way back in the day with Dean Martin and everyone. Toy Story was the first movie I ever watched
As Rickles went into his 80’s I swear he became funnier. His withering, ‘who gives a fuck attitude’ meant something genuine. We ain’t gonna live forever, folks. It gave him a new edge.
@UCZ7Pb9zbOZNZZyMyxBvvCKA That's the difference between his time, and our time. His time, people had respect. Our time, all these Hollywood douches think they're too good for that. A living, breathing legend, who is basically telling the producers to go fuck themselves, and rightfully so, and they treat him like he hasn't helped pave the way for where those bitches are sitting. Fuck every single one of those sacks of shit that had to be told to stand up
Wow. Every single video or encounter seen with Don Rickles, from his 20’s all the way through to his 90’s no matter who is in the room, from someone on the street to news anchors to actors to the greatest of entertainers, no one can hold a candle to Don. He is the king of comedy, the quickest & the most sharpest fastest ever, known to man.
Tell you what, my respect for Kathy Griffin just shot up about 23,000 points. They should have been on their feet when his foot first hit the stage. She was all indignant and shit,..."GET UUUUUUP!!!" You go girl. He deserves more respect than that whole room combined. I'm just saying.
Gotta agree with you there. I don't normally care for her, but she seemed genuinely respectful of Rickles. Glad she called the audience out on that one. "GET UUUUP!"
I read her memoir "Official Book Club Selection" and she often referenced getting advice from Rickles. You could tell from those stories she respected his immense talent and likely viewed him as an influence on her own insult humor (whether you care for it or not)
Oh don't worry....she will only suffer for about a month and then be back on top again I'm sure you also are one of those self righteous hyporites who will condemn this joke but had zero problem against neocon extremists holding up nooses and then stating "Hang Obama!" along other tasteless, racist shit. At least she apologized. They have not, including the person who she went after (i.e. has he ever apologized for the people he defrauded from his "university"? How about the women whose vaginas he touched? Plus those contractors who he stiffed over the years)
"This crap got me nowhere"...classic and so true. That's why he never made it as an actor...you simply cannot script the man ! He's at his best when he tells it like it like he sees it ! Russel Peter's is very good with engaging the audience as well...
It kind of is ornery tho cause it's obvious he isn't good with reading lines. Rickles is all imrprov, and Kathy Griffen trying to stick to the lines creates an awkward chemistry.
it's called respect. She idolize Don, and when you're with someone who you respect very much, you don't want to outshine/ show off. You let them shine.
A unique comic genius who has made countless millions laugh at life. Building on the tradition of Groucho Marx, Shecky Greene and others, the zenith of improv wit.
I love Don Rickles. He always makes you come around to his way of seeing it. He slaps you in the face with his comedy until you get "it". How you know you got it you laugh and feel a smile on your face. God bless him.
RIP Don. Thanks for the unforgettable laughs and outrageously zany insult humor. If only i could've been ripped apart by your imaginative, creative mind!
This was great! I wished I had known that Don was going to be on that show. I would have watched it, just for him. I give Kathy credit for her admiration of Don. Don is the last one. All the other greats are gone. Kathy shouldn't have had to tell them to stand.
You are so right. I thought the same thing. Those people should have been on their feet when Don first made his entrance. Good on Kathy for getting them to stand up for a legend.
"Let's read these funny lines, that they wrote for us"
Wow it's like you're watching the exact same video as we are
I can't believe they had to be told to get up.
+Shanks It's rare cause they usually do. Not sure why they didn't in this case.
+Allen M. Quinn They're largely morons who don't realize what a legend is in front of them, that's why. Duh.
+Shanks They're television personalities, you are confusing them with intelligent people.
That's the one thing Griffen did that I found admirable. Usually she's one of those "Meahhhhhh" types that thinks she's funny.
The best part was that the first cut to the audience was to Larry David, and you could tell he'd already been standing. You can see him SHOOT up as soon as Kathy was about to say "UUUUUUUPPPPP!"
Larry knows what's up.
Nobody tells Don Rickles what to do.. He went in and owned everyone including Emmys production folks..
+craziewill It's the reason he never did well on scripted TV shows...Rickles simply cannot be scripted....
Paddy queen

He is too good for that crowd...
Agreed!
Well said. They didn’t understand it because it wasn’t rehearsed garbage. Rickles is a true legend. Class and the funniest delivery He invented attitude comedy And if he didn’t invent it he made it his.
They laughed they gave him a standing ovation what the fuck else you want?
Oriv_kaboom Nathaniel some fucking respect for a man like that
@@RR-kh9fv you could see the respect they had for him like larry david, jeff garlin and steve carrell in their faces, apart from the guy at 2:25
"Oh really cause it's a hot show"
Hahahah! Nothing escapes the Merchant of Venom
"Let's read these funny lines they wrote for us."
SAVAGE
I'm 25 yo from North East India admiring and laughing at every Don Rickles Dean Martin celebrity "man of the hour" roast.
R. I. P Don u got your cookies 🙏
No one in that audience will ever come close to the greatness & the legend himself that is don rickles.
Not even me.
That’s not very nice there were clearly at least a handful if not way more people who were dying laughing at everything he said
Whenever Rickles went on Carson, nothing was written or planned. Carson and his team knew better than to keep to a script when Rickles was around due to his spontaneous wit. Truly the last living comic legend. We will never see another comedian like him ever again. Thanks for all the laughs, Don:)
Kevin Mai....no, just speaking truth. Regressive society would never tolerate another Rickles.
I see what you did there :D
Lol makes it sound like he's dead. The man's flesh is dying but he's not in a coffin yet.
AWSOMEPOSSUM16 mind is still razor sharp!
AWSOMEPOSSUM16 rest in peace don:(
Don went right up on stage and roasted everyone in front of it and in back of it at the same time. What a guy. The Maestro of Malice. We miss you dearly.

She shows deference to Rickles.

Christian P Schneider after a quick scan of the audience, none of them come close.
Yea
Only thing I’ve ever respected her for, or ever will. Scumbag liberal.
Rickles never got old. Quick as a whip till the very end.
@@brettbaratheon9776 I like the bit where she cut Donald Trumps head off. Lol. I love her for that. lol
Don just gave a BIG MIDDLE FINGER to whole even ceremony script with promters, prepared speech etc. I Love you Don!
He was 82 when this aired, lots of old people, not always, but sometimes are grumpy. But he was so good at being grumpy, he put humor with it
+Dalton Moen That's his shtick . You got to be a young 'un. Don was doing this back in the 60's and then some.
I am 20 but I grew up with lots of Dons stand up, his movies and the roasts he did way back in the day with Dean Martin and everyone. Toy Story was the first movie I ever watched
As Rickles went into his 80’s I swear he became funnier. His withering, ‘who gives a fuck attitude’ meant something genuine. We ain’t gonna live forever, folks. It gave him a new edge.
1:36 - biggest, most subtle middle finger ever seen on national television! Rickles is amazing!!!
So sad that she actually had to tell the crowd to stand up for this Legend
Shocking that they didn't
@UCZ7Pb9zbOZNZZyMyxBvvCKA That's the difference between his time, and our time. His time, people had respect. Our time, all these Hollywood douches think they're too good for that.

*Most sharp, or *sharpest. "Most sharpest" is grammatically incorrect.

Mightymikespest Hosspeker and the respect just went ALLLLLLLL the way down again
Oh don't worry....she will only suffer for about a month and then be back on top again

Don Rickles is so good he don’t need no teleprompter the teleprompter needs him.
they were told to get up because people have no class these days, and comedy sucks today. back then people had real talent.
So true. I'm getting ready to turn off cable for good. The new Rosanne Show won't make it either. Great cast, but horrible writing.
@@norahr14 Dude, just shut up, ok? Thank you
@@norahr14 Ok.
@Dojocho Because his show was network TV. Not cable
@@norahr14 salty bitch😂😂😂😂
Kathy did an outstanding job , telling everyone to get up!!!
When the 'novelty' act turns out to be bigger than the event itself. Awesome Rickles. RIP.
No words for Don Rickles -- he is the Zeus of comedy. Untouched. Who could not love Don!
A snowflake.
@@dougbrowne9890 definitely not
God bless him and all the laughter over the years. Love and thanks.
I love her for this, she demanded their respect. What a class act! Bravo!
Most likely Rickles can't believe this reality show garbage gets awards. You used to have to be able to write a story.
That's why he said not real tv
a microcosm of don's comedic life......that His impromptu, improvising is WAY funnier than any writer could come up with!
+Dennis Mackey he's amazing
"are planes landing?" lol
Don simply cannot be scripted...give him is 5 minutes and let him run !
Paddy Scripting Don is like trying to mix oil and water, let him be, you can’t force a square peg into a round hole.
Simply the greatest.....!.....Don Wrinkles!
Kathy Griffen knows.. Don was a good friend of hers.. I love how she screamed "GET UP"!!
HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD IF THIS GUY????? WHAT THE HELL!?! HE'S HILARIOUS!!!!
I only came across this comedic genius just recently and I've had so many laughs.
Don Rickles was great - quicker on his feet than most.
"This crap got me nowhere"...classic and so true. That's why he never made it as an actor...you simply cannot script the man ! He's at his best when he tells it like it like he sees it ! Russel Peter's is very good with engaging the audience as well...
You can tell he was holding back so much, he wanted deep down to go off on everyone.
Don Rickles comes on and you just don’t want it to stop. He presents an award and the whole award show is starting to become incidental.
I started to tear up a bit... God bless this man. I know he was in his 90's but he should've lived 90 more. Gone Too Soon. My hats off to you sir.
This is his act in a nutshell.
Nothing ornery about it.
Hilarious yes, ornery no,
Scripted? No. That is his act.
It kind of is ornery tho cause it's obvious he isn't good with reading lines. Rickles is all imrprov, and Kathy Griffen trying to stick to the lines creates an awkward chemistry.
"and the emmy goes to..."
"Herby Dickman"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
"Herbie Dickman" 😂😂😂 that killed me!
The way he refers to that as not the real shows is simply amazing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Let's read these funny lines they wrote for us".....and then the eyebrow.... that's why he is Don Rickles
She is a force to be reckoned with....who else could hold her own beside him
it's called respect. She idolize Don, and when you're with someone who you respect very much, you don't want to outshine/ show off. You let them shine.
“They go home, cry, and then they make it a door stop!” 🤣
Crowd missed it.
And the winner is! Herbie Dickman.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 lmfao!!!!!!
Classic Don Rickles!
Every video I watch of Rickles manages to crack me up, and this one is no exception. He was the best at what he did.
ORNRY? WHAT IS THIS, BONANZA?
He is just simply awesome..always will be KING of roasts!!!!!
REST IN PEACE DON RICKLES! A LEGEND
Thanks for posting this, Rickles still at his best. Even Kathy looked good.
A unique comic genius who has made countless millions laugh at life. Building on the tradition of Groucho Marx, Shecky Greene and others, the zenith of improv wit.
i want this as my alarm clock: "GET UP!!!!!!"
Don Rickles is a comedic genius. The kindest thing I can say for Griffin is that she is NOT.
I love Don Rickles. He always makes you come around to his way of seeing it. He slaps you in the face with his comedy until you get "it". How you know you got it you laugh and feel a smile on your face. God bless him.
Kathy is so cute when Don makes her laugh.
Rip to a legend we all miss him
RIP Don. Thanks for the unforgettable laughs and outrageously zany insult humor. If only i could've been ripped apart by your imaginative, creative mind!
I saw Don twice in Vegas- almost DIED laughin!
I feel sorry for Don. Having a screen trying to tell him what to say
So funny how he just goes into a stand up routine😂😂
Good for Kathy calling for everybody to rise for Rickles. Lookin' nice in that dress, too.
The Guys Waving!! Are the Planes Landing!!???🤣😂
This was great! I wished I had known that Don was going to be on that show. I would have watched it, just for him. I give Kathy credit for her admiration of Don. Don is the last one. All the other greats are gone. Kathy shouldn't have had to tell them to stand.
stand up when the king walks in
Thanks for all this years we love you leul.
You are so right. I thought the same thing. Those people should have been on their feet when Don first made his entrance. Good on Kathy for getting them to stand up for a legend.
Don Rickles is a legend, just love him.............Partizan Jug :D
He's not being "Ornery" I get the feeling he just hates how bloated and formal tv is now, so he feels like he should just say whatever he wants.
RIP Mr. Warmth. And Kathy looked gooooorgeous!
He gave no fuuuucsss 😂
One of the only people ever who can make ANY other comedian laugh
Kathy looks beautiful right here. Love her "magic hair."
Khaty laughing is gold XD Don is so Smart and caustic
Rip Mr Warmth
Can't believe and old man had to make such a difficult entrance. Bless him.
i love how she orders the entire auditorium to get up
RIP Don Rickles 1926-2017
Two stunning men presenting !
I could watch a feature length film with just Don making Kathy laugh!
This was awesome!
Griffin is as funny as paint drying. Don is his exceptional self. Always at the top of his game.
This is legendary.
She shouldn't have had to tell these hockey pucks to stand up!
He's Older and Slower in His Steps,But Still Has the Wit..Don't ever try to Heckle this Guy,You'll Loose!
Griffin as phony as they come I get goosebumps watching this Don Rickles was the best one liner of all time!
Laugh riot a mile a minute - ultra GENIUS...with shrewd K. Griffin.
this is a brilliant idea.
Don Rickles... R-U-L-E-S
"This crap didn't get me anywhere, I'm tellin' ya"... Hilarious!
He destroyed the Emmy in 30 seconds.
Maaan... That entire room don't deserve Don Rickles !!!!!!
My comedy style is based on don rickles and I make everyone from friends and family roll on the floor with laughter
Oj simpson jury right here in the front 🤣🤣🤣🤣
everyone knew Don. he just was Don.
RIP DON.
lol GET UUUUUUUUUUUUUP!!!! love her
The make up team did a great job on Kathy, she actually looks really delicious here.
