Bob Newhart surprises longtime friend, Don Rickles during HBO's 13th Annual U.S. Comedy Arts Festival, in Aspen, 2007 with director, John Landis. Newhart tells a funny story.
'I read the New York Post. He studies the editorials. I study the sports page. He likes polite discourse. I'm loud. So how the hell have we come to like each other so much? We make each other laugh-that's how. Offstage, I'm Bob Newhart's best audience and he's mine. It helps, of course, that our wives have maintained their close friendship. Bob and I both subscribe to the philosophy that has saved many a marriage: Happy wife, happy life. For some thirty-five years, the Newharts and the Rickleses have taken many happy vacations together. We've traveled the world. I've watched him hide as I've made fun of people in foreign languages I don't understand. He's watched me doze off while he's discussed the world's problems. My problem was finding out if the Dodgers beat the Giants.' (Rickles Book: A Memoir)
The Comedy Festival, formerly known as the US Comedy Arts Festival, was a comedy festival that ran from 1995 to 2008.The festival included stand-up comedy performances, appearances by the casts of television shows, and has a film component called the Film Discovery Program.

Thanks.
Class acts.
Both men are national treasures... period
I teared up when they hugged. What friendship!
They were best friends pretty much
Don almost broke-up initially.
R.I.P. Bob Newhart and Don Rickles
They were the best of friends.
as well as Mrs Ginnie Newhart and Mrs Barbara Rickles r. i. p.
may their memory be a blessing
Don 'choked up' that's what friends are for.
I've never seen that happen in all of Don's vids!! It was a great moment..
Bob and Don are together, again. My heart hurts so bad today, but I am so happy those two best friends are reunited.
It's bittersweet, both will be missed. But I'm happy both are together again ❤😢
Two of the best. What a rare and wonderful friendship. Back in the day when we could all laugh at each other and ourselves. Man I miss the 70’s and 80’s.
yeah
Is ur Flag upside down friend
I'm so glad they got to live a long beautiful friendship!
2 of the greatest comedians of all time !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don was very emotional when they hug...
He was choking
Awesome thing is Bob is still alive.
I know right, he did an interview with Conan O'Brien just today.
You just KNOW *Don loved that!*
This is truly friendship if there ever was one! Bob & Don are finally reunited, & Barbra & Ginny are laughing at both of them! RIP to all, may you have an eternity of laughs
Don had said the "secret" to his marriage with Barbara was that " *she didn't laugh at his jokes* ".
"They will never be another one like them" has been overused, but in Bob and Don's it is probably true because they were so different from the "mainstream" in their own time.
Genuine love and warmth from Mr. Warmth himself. What a beautiful moment.
I💓 don rickles... Have started watching his work from past 3 year's now. Have become a huge fan since then And watched all the things he was in . On theTonight show, cpo sharky, etc etc.. he's the god of comedy
You might like Paul Lynde too !!!
Have you seen Kelly's heroes?
I live in Denmark and just recently learned about these two.
My God...I love them. Thanks YT.
TRUE Friendship....SADLY you don't see this in today's world
Real love for each other. RIP Don.
Don Rickles has been gone for some time, now. These two were friends in every sense of the word and I do wonder how such kindred souls manage to survive the ‘premature’ loss of one or the other. You must watch Bob roasting Don, on here. Magic.
It’s so sad to think they’re both gone. I started out laughing and now I’m bawling. RIP and may their memories be a blessing. Thanks for all the laughs ❤❤❤❤❤
Love them both!
i like to watch this when im feeling down
its wonderful seeing the real rickles and how much he valued his friends
These guys gave us so much to laugh at for years, miss em both
Two great comedians who truly cared for each other.
I love these men. They had such an amazing friendship. Sadly, Bob is the only one left. Even the wives are gone now.
Omfg the best friend love energy at 0:28 😢😢😢♥️♥️♥️ they traveled the world together and gave Don tons of funny stories and were best friends for over 40 years.
First time I saw Don cried
Two of the greatest!
They were like brothers
They knew eachother for over 50 years they were like brothers their wife's were like sisters
Don rickles...genius
How they became best friends is baffling. Mr warmth and Bob newhart. Classy guys.
two class acts! R.I. P. Bob and Don. Together again along with their wives.
Absolutely 2 of the best ever RIP
True affection for each other
The legends are gone.....the era of Don, Bob, Joan, Robin......its just gone.
And that ladies and gents is the problem in the world.
No one is out there daring to hold the mirror to the world and make us laugh at the pain. The pain of life, the world.
We need them back again.
Bob Newhart is still alive tho!
As of my comment, Bob Newhart is still alive!
Two years after your comment, Newhart is still alive. Let's not bury him yet!@@Comrade2261
Love these two gentlemen.
Both Don Rickles and Bob Newhart were first-rate actors, as well as comedians. For example, watching them together here, most people would have no idea they despised and loathed one another in real life. But here they come across as the best of friends. They're phenomenal professionals and actors.
Watch a documentary on them. They and their wives were BEST friends, their families vacationed together, loved one another. Fact
He's just messing with u. RELAX. ty
RUclips introduced me to Don Rickles. Dean Martin’s Celebrity Roasts are TV Gold and Rickles always steals the show, including of course his own roast.
True celebrities
That is the stuff out of which comedians are born........good truth, Bob.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great friends great people great men my they all rip and thankyou so much for late night laughing loveyou so much and I know your laughing together up in heaven ❤️ 😘 🎉🙏
Fantastic chemistry between these two. And the wives were like sisters. Don "Mr Warmth" Rickles. Incredible life. Especially as an insult comedian.
The definition of friendship.
They’re together now ♥️
two legends
Together again rip to both
Beautiful
We can all pray we God blessess us with a friendship like the Rickles and Newharts have
I was fortunate enough to see Don Rickles’ last tour with Regis Philbin at the Wiltern Theater and Bob Newhart sat behind us.
R.I.P Bob Newhart and Don Rickles.
True story: Bob and Don hadn’t seen each other in days before this was done.
And today..re united upstairs
Legends - hard to believe they are both gone - National Treasures
I actually feel sorry for people giving this a thumbs down
Sad people.
The last two guys alive from that era pretty much, and now it’s just bob how insane
End of an era. RIP Bob Newhart
Iam sitting here watching and listening to these two,and I had a thought, Could you see these two on Broadway in a revival of the Odd Couple, it would be great standing room only ,these two comedic geniuses together ,that would have been solid gold humor at its finest !!!!
How awesome is that your best friend gets do do that 😊
Legends!!
Legends
They are together in heaven
First time I've seen Rickles silent.
Great to see the friendship and love in between these two legends...and then the host takes the award from Don’s hand without even asking and cross his legs with his shoes almost on Don’s lap... 2 class act and 1 moron.
God that bothered me so much too!
R A not to defend his actions or anything, but that host is none other than director John Landis who directed such classics as:
Animal House
The Blues Brothers
An American Werewolf in London
Three Amigos
Coming to America
As well directing Michael Jackson's music videos for:
"Thriller" and
"Black or White"
Jarod Gordon I understand but that’s another reason for a better performance from him, such the high level of professionalism a person on his position must have.
It's not that deep
@@MrRapparicio 2 months late for a response but if it helps, Landis made the documentary "Mr. Warmth: The Don Rickles Project" which celebrated the life and career of Don Rickles; which resulted in Rickles netting 2 Emmys: the only Emmys he got in his television career. So Landis might have been a little bit fresh here, but he did gave Rickles a much greater gift that, in perspective excused him a little bit.
Rip Mr rickles
I want to be like that with my best friend when we grow old, ugly and death etc
Of the 3, the last 2 I'm certain of it.
You don't get class like this anymore. It's just not around.
"He'll be glad to go..." Bwhaahahhahahalaolaolaooholahoa cough cough Canada
Damn...wish Rickles could have lived another 90 yrs.
The host is very gentleman 👍👍👍😉
Why is it most of time embarrassing to people to hug or kiss people on the cheek? Don does it.
Yes keep in mind that in his early career, he was often with the likes of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and the italian mob, most of who were notorious cheek kissers and touchy feely characters.
Awesome. Just needed Rodney Dangerfield.
the jason bateman in me can't help but notice that they placed bobs chair a foot too far back.
When an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. I’ll let you all decide who’s which!
❤
Thank you RUclips algorithm. Also what losers would downvote this?
Man this is comedy....RIP
😃💝🎊
Is it John Landis with them ?
why did that guy have to tell them to sit multiple times like they are senile
He’s the director John Landis that arranged the entire surprise meeting. If not for him there would be no video that I could post
These were talented, fine men and best of friends. I'm not sure why people are exclaiming that they are now reunited again. There is ZERO evidence of that. Just because we want to believe something doesn't make it true. Just remember these men fondly but stop with the fairytale nonsense.
It might be a cultural thing but as an Indian, I feel uncomfortable watching the host sitting with his shoe towards the guests. Here in India, it is considered bad manner to put your shoe towards an elder.
It's cultural thing you are right.
Get a life
Haha
Yeah and culture has sweet shit to do with this. You’re in the west now we are not troubled by a dam shoe facing us. Get a life
The comedians of Newhart's and Rickles' era were so stylistically different from each other--Berle,Youngman,Dangerfield,Hope,Benny,Burns,Carlin,Joan Rivers,Phyllis Diller,Gleason,Lewis,Gorshin,Little--and the rest,but today,it's a comedic wasteland out there.Colbert and Kimmell tell Trump jokes for 15 minutes.Seth Meyers tells Trump jokes for a half hour.Now if they were funny...but they're not--and constant repetition is one of the reasons.Comics used to have a three joke rule:Don't exceed 3 jokes about one subject.About Trump,they go over that number by 50 easily.Bob is/was a great one.
I never noticed that late nite hosts bust onTrump. Ty
This Zizsnottithisher
National Treasures is Correct ❤
Now we have National Garbage 😢
