Richard Alva Cavett (/ˈkævɪt/; born November 19, 1936) is an American television personality and former talk show host. He appeared regularly on nationally broadcast television in the United States for five decades, from the 1960s through the 2000s.
It’s so weird think these people were leaders and role models, and to not be insulted by something you’re watching. Compared to the role models who win music and movie awards now. With prestige black tie award ceremonies songs of the year like ‘wet a$$ pu$$y’. Why do all these shows make me believe society and the human race as a whole is in decline, as technology and decadence and narcissists-masquerading-as-empaths grows lmao
(Lady in balcony) "Mr Allen, are you married?" (Woody) "I'm married but separated, so its the same thing but in a different sense; I have to walk a few blocks to get what i want." 😂😂😂
A timpani and a conga, nice. 4:29 the way he takes that to commercial is a particularly fine example of the endearing way he did his job. “And uh, I will, we will be back after this messàge,”
@@pappy374 the blind date....epic!! Oh a Bourbon man..yea I’m putting down a quart a day! “I love the rain,it washes memories off the sidewalks of life” huh?! Stone silence!
@@pappy374 truly a classic scene start to finish...it’s like he’s giving the heil hitler salute when he grunts! And then when he’s showing her how to eat rice at the Chinese restaurant shoveling it in a mile a minute absolutely hilarious and then believing that she’s turned on to him and that he’s going to make a move -sublet my apartment! man that an blazing saddles, animal House are my three all-time favorites...love Woody especially the early stuff.
@@jamesmack3314 "It's a shovelling move you get with your arm! Nomnomnom!" Take The Money And Run is another one that makes me laugh from start to finish (heck, all of Woody's stuff does to a lesser or greater degree). The scene where they interview his parents in Groucho disguises and his father says that the problem was he was an atheist and he tried to beat God into him, but he was too tough!
Wow, the letters he read show how far American literacy has fallen. So the fact that I can correctly assemble words into something that resembles coherent standard English, isn't a fluke after all.
"Candy Bergen" (Candice Bergen of "Murphy Brown" (the late 1980's) fame); Bishop = I think that Dick meant Joey Bishop (from the early 1960's); 5:04 - 12:11 = Viewer Mail (if the social media platform, Twitter, was invented in the late 1960's...); on Wikipedia, I found out that Dick played a part, in Woody's debut film, "Annie Hall" (in the late 1970's, with Diane Keaton). I liked the audience Q&A session segment, that involved both Woody and Dick, at the end.
Think about it, this was 1969. Woody hadn't even made his first film. People thought they were watching a fairly funny comedian. They didn't know they were sitting in front of one of the best filmmakers of the 20th century.
A fairly funny comedian? At this stage Woody was being talked about as being one of the funniest stand-ups in the world, and had been for years already.
Actually at the time of this interview Woody HAD INDEED released his very first film "Take the Money and Run" on August 1969. Here's the trailer-www.imdb.com/title/tt0065063/ and here's the film, ruclips.net/video/OpcyZmZrZ3k/видео.html
his next few films in the early 70s were the funniest- Everything you wanted to know about sex, Bananas & Sleeper. But his record became spotty after about’75. He got too serious & full of himself. However there were sporadic greats like Annie Hall & Broadway Danny Rose.
@P K Actually, I don't live on the internet. But my point in the earlier comment was made because I found it difficult to believe that obtuse and stentorian bigots would ever have watched anything as erudite as the Dick Cavett show. And yes I do remember the show and Nixon, and the civil rights movement, and the anti-war movement etc., etc., etc. But I rarely got to see this show because my father hated Cavett. Draw your own conclusions as to why. I only got to see this show when my father was at work. Oh, and the "who knew" part above was meant as a small joke.
Dick Cavett always seems to try to bring up that Woody is smaller than him, but you can tell from other interviews, Woody has at least half an inch on him.
The monologue was awful but it sure picked up steam after that. The letter segment was awesome and Woody was his usual hilarious self with Cavett getting in a number of great jokes as well. On the pushups bit I was hoping one of em was going to say, “I’d win with negative six.” I seem to recall the Woody’s ex sued him over that final joke and lost.
It’s so weird think these people were leaders and role models, compare that to who wins music and movie awards now. Why do all these shows make me believe society and the human race as a whole is in decline, as technology and decadence and narcissists-masquerading-as-empaths grows lmao

Say what you want to say about him, Woody Allen is a comic genius. He is funny without being trashy. One smart man.
I’m jealous of this era with such deep intelligence from host, guest, and audience alike.
Entertainment used to be pitched towards mature adults but now there’s more money in entertaining the younger crowd.
Wit is a learned trait. Just keep an eye on contemporary absurdities in EVERTHANG
More like pretentious stupidity.
You're so right!
People that is to say the public at large was given the benefit of the doubt that they had more than a five minute attention span.
These fellows make a great team.
Woody Allen is great...I love his films.
Hes a nonce
oh my god, i had watched woody for decades and I had never seen him laugh out loud like that 22:40
This is gold. Woody and Dick made a great combination
Woody and Dick are the secret of bedroom success.
Iwas 16 when this came out, Iwatched it with my dad.
That letter reading is pure gold!
I was in Vietnam when this aired...BIG fan of Woody Allen!!

It just struck me how the Big Band era persisted on talk shows.
Good point - never thought of that
The people who fought in WW2 we middle aged when this came out. Still relatively young. So that sound still had a lot of currency.
@@adampeters7947 Absolutely, but my parents (in that exact era) had zero interest in Dick Cavett or Woody Allen.

Why did you post this
Thanks for uploading this saves me from having to watch the whole show on Decades.
I would have loved to watched the full show. What was going on in 1969?
If only the audience had known, Woody was a great ballplayer!
it's great to see this. smart people. ! Thanks Woody, for all the humour.
It’s so interesting to see what stupid people think intelligence is.

Rick Moranis did a great job here.
Woody is the funniest!!
I really wish I could find Joan Baez and Allen Ginsberg episodes.
I used to love Allen's movies and was in awe of his wit and perception. But watching him now some 50 years later he just seems so full of himself.
his daughter is full by him

@@RideAcrossTheRiver How's that related to Woody? LOL
@@mandysimmons2769 Keep it clean, Mandy.
22:58 That is probably one of Woody's best laugh!!!
For all his wit and humor in this appearance, it's still difficult to imagine the trajectory Mr. Allen's career would soon take.
Men will be men. I don’t put anything past anyone anymore.
Allen comes out at 13:47.

Thank you...
Comes out looking like Edith Bunker LOL

The opening monolog were not always tge strongest ... but always had excellent guests.
This was a time when you had to have talent to be on t.v.
You'd never be on TV then.
Only idiots watch tv. People like you.
The only guest smaller than Cavett.

My favorite part of this comment is that it isn't properly punctuated.
Also, don’t start your sentences with “So”.
It’s meant to accentuate the point
The name of Woody's movie is not mentioned, Take The Money and Run seems to be the obvious one .

He performed in other films but "Take the Money and Run" was his directorial debut. He was also a co-writer and producer.

These letters from 1969 surprised me. They are very like viewer comments on here or internet chat rooms - conflicted . . . Who knew?

Dick Cavett's tendency to try to gain attention with his smug attention-seeking remarks is annoying.
19:36 a time traveler asks the first question
Did I miss the name of Woody’s film? 1969 so must be “Take the Money and Run” but not well plugged here anyway.
No monologues please, but more of Woody Allen.
Dick Cavett always seems to try to bring up that Woody is smaller than him, but you can tell from other interviews, Woody has at least half an inch on him.
I can’t take my shirt off because I gave a pornographic tattoo on my chest 😂😀😂😅
28:10 Obviously Woody learned how to do pushups from Spanky
COOL VIDEO ! WEDNESDAY 8/3/22 AUGUST 3, 2022
Cavett was a no talent doosch and everyone knew it. He was the Fallon/Kimmel of his time. Woody is brilliant as usual
You can’t even spell “douche”. 🙄
The Woodman at 13:15.
I was 9
Wow. The crowd wants intellectual pin-ups!
Woody really could not do a push-up.
The monologue was awful but it sure picked up steam after that. The letter segment was awesome and Woody was his usual hilarious self with Cavett getting in a number of great jokes as well.
On the pushups bit I was hoping one of em was going to say, “I’d win with negative six.”
I seem to recall the Woody’s ex sued him over that final joke and lost.

13:41 Woody Allen
I just noticed the Pornhub-style "excitement scale" on the timeline. Didn't know YT had that.

13:10 ruclips.net/video/So0MnN_6Y3M/видео.html it's a louis armstrong impression of that song!
Did not remember the band
Woody joked how he preferred a fascist dictator to run things. He only had to wait a few years for the Donald to enter the scene.
Ha ha ha you are as funny as f maybe you should Annalise your hero Woody's relationship with his seven year old daughter before you talk c**p
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

It was either twisted movie producer/director or Catholic priest. Apparently the perks are very similar. LOL ;-)

I understand he likes little black boys.
