What an absolute lady she was even when she was being naughty. Never ever took herself too seriously and always giving credit to others. She truly was one in a million. We here all were blessed to be around to enjoy her talents.
@@haroldelrod8515 Whatever dude. A little friendly ribbing between two professional comedians who have a history that goes back more than 30 years. Betty White takes as good as she gives. Nothing Betty said about her castmates was malicious or mean-spirited. She was always funny, bright and engaging and entertaining which is what late nite talk shows guests USED to be before the whole industry turned into one continuous plug for this movie or that book or whatever. Betty had a genuine and deep affection for all her co-stars as evidenced by countless interviews, panels and her auto-biography.
Sheer gold. Nothing in talk shows today compared to the terrific banter fun and joy of this moment here. This is the true Talent of Betty White and Johnny Carson
She was the epitome of an absolute class act. RIP to an absolute amazing queen. I still can not believe she passed literally only a couple weeks before reaching her 100Th birthday. &; even at almost 100 years old, she absolutely passed way too soon. She’s one in a million.. &; she aged so gracefully. I guess being funny and truly lighthearted keeps you young☺️☺️.
Watching this interview makes me suddenly, all too late, appreciative, of Carson's interview style in which he never serves as the center of the interview, but a facilitator for the guest to share his or her stories. Carson was the consummate interview show host, a one in a billion. RIP.
Yes, truly the secret to his success. If need be, he would be a little more talkative with a guest that wasn't so much. And before you knew it, they would find their comfort zone and it would be a great conversation.
You are so right. When Jay Leno took over I was horrified, and saddened, that he never let the guests go off on a tangent, or even respond properly to anything--he interrupted with wisecracks continually. Jay Leno made the most interesting person look boring. Johnny Carson made the more boring person interesting, and he made interesting people incredible.
THIS is why I used to love late night TV - and talk shows - so much. Without ever veering from classy, they would still be funny, risqué even, gentle without being saccharin, and truly truly fun. Betty and Johnny bantering together, it is a JOY to watch them almost forty years later!
We may be older, but we also stayed up late to enrich our minds and hearts with late night. I don't like any of them now. Too crass. Too loud. Too much kissing tushes. David Letterman had man good interviews, as did Conan. But Johnny and Tom were great. I liked Arsenio as a young person. He was hip.
Carson didn't have competition at the same hour because the other networks didn't try and well they shouldn't. There was only one other person on television that I have witnessed with the same skill to draw out the best in a guest (Sports Anchor Bob Lobell). Betty was extremely talented - she also knew that she "had the floor" for these few minutes. BECAUSE Carson owned late night, he didn't care so much about keeping ratings from others. I believe that Johnny had quite a bit of control over who would be on his show next whereas today; the Producer is being directed by the parent corporation that a product (movie, TV show) also owned by the corporation needs to be promoted. Guests come on when their movie is being released and "oh by the way, we have a clip". There was of course; some of that on Carson but it WAS a different time. President R.R. is responsible for all the media consolidation possible under the powers of the Executive Branch. Just a few years later, the rest of the nails hammered home the corporate dominance. It was called the Telecommunications Act, it was wholly written and approved by Republicans in the Legislature and rather than Veto it so (R)'s would OWN it, Billy Clinton signed it. The result is that now; late night is a product, a vehicle to promote other products and so, the ability of the hosts to wrestle back some of what Carson did is up to them in the fewer minutes of freedom they are given. I DO think that Jimmy Kimmel is as unconcerned about his job as Carson was and so, he hands over the reigns to other very capable (at least temporarily anyway) guest hosts. Kimmel IS a very clever person and so, may continue to grow in the role. Later on NBC, Seth Meyers has "A Closer Look" (it's on RUclips as well) that's always well worth watching plus I think that that hour allows him some of the freedom that Carson had. Jon Stewart of "the Daily Show" used to host 20 minutes of a simply unbeatable Show where most often; a politician would debate themselves using video of them on both sides of any issue. Stewart was terrible at interviews however so it was only worthwhile to catch "Your Moment of Zen" just before the Credits rolled. Ironically, Jon is on RUclips and not doing what he and his former Staff did best but INTERVIEWING.... I've watched a handful. Last, I will mention Stephen Colbert who graduated from "the Daily Show" onto his own Show and then the corporate mother ship put him in Letterman's CBS slot. Colbert had been a muckraker and tried doing that a couple of times on the Mother Ship where he was promptly given the rest of the week off to compare his salary with his mortgage payment. I'll leave you all with an actual quote from CBS CEO Leslie Moonves on Donald Trump: _“It May Not Be Good for America, but It’s Damn Good for CBS”._ So _"YEAH, Colbert and others. Cash in on the controversy if you like"_ but if you were paying attention as I did, you would have noticed who was called "popular" every day on all of them and who was equally popular but completely ignored until the Superdelegates could do THEIR Thang and we were left with "popular" versus not, instead of the 2 most popular choices - and only one of them with the kind of record that the other one adopted for his campaign speeches (only).
Most people fail to realize the genius required to be a genuine comic. Betty White played a dimwit brilliantly in Golden Girls and her beauty remained till the end. We miss her immensely.💖
Betty White -- what a live wire! I love the gentle ribbing she gives Johnny, and his reactions. TV has never been enjoyalbe to me since Johnny left, and Betty White was such a gem. What a wonderful video! Thanks for posting!
I was so sad that she died aged 99 years & 49 weeks. I truly thought she would make it to 100. Ms. White was so damn clever & talented. She is now reunited with the love of her life.
@@maudeboggins9834 I thought the same thing about her age. It broke my heart that she missed an even 100. As for Alan Ludden, he really was her "the one." (Alan's name was corrected.)
@@marcochimio Thank you for saying that about Ms. White not getting quite to her 100th. I too was broken hearted. My husband thought I was talking about a relative when I saw the headlines she had passed away. I kept saying Oh, Oh no, how sad. He didn't quite embrace my heart break at her being so near but yet so far.
Yeah me too. I thought Ms. White would get to 100 & Queen Elizabeth, liker her mother 102. Sisters Olivia De Havilland lived to 104 & her sister Joan Fontaine 96 lived to a combined age of 200 years old.
I truly thought Betty would make it to her 100th. I remember Dec 17, 2021 & I thought one more month. Alas she couldn't wait to get to embrace her beloved Allen.
Betty White had the ability to make every man feel 100 feet tall when she flirted with you, yet you knew she was 100% loyal to her husband Alan. What a class act in every way. She is missed.
I would so much loved to have met Betty White. She is beautiful, hilarious, loving, caring and so down to earth. She was my favorite Golden Girl! She was a true sweetheart. I still watch reruns of the Golden Girls and laugh just as much now as I did years ago. We all love and miss you, Betty.
Way back before all of the different platforms we didn't get as many American shows over here in England but I'm so grateful that we did get the Golden Girls. 😊👍.
I’m so glad Johnny mentioned Life with Elizabeth because I loved it and yet so few of her interviews mention it. From black and white on a dad-built television to her outstanding comedy in full colour and HD she was an entertainer who never gave up bringing us laughter and love in full measure.
A true lady and she was very talented I've always have thought the world of her she is the diamond in the ruff there aren't enough words to say about her beauty and behavior she is dearly missed
Amazing sense of humor all the way till her end. A great joy to have been alive during half of her career. Something we won’t see too much more of I’m afraid.
I remember seeing this when it originally aired. I was laughing so hard I woke my wife up. she started laughing right along when she realized what she was seeing which Honestly has been a really good source of happiness for me ever since I lost my wife so many years ago i was married for 42years I was 24 and she was 20. She got cancer in 2020 I was totally lost without her. She took a major hit the treatment was horrible for her. I could do nothing to change any thing so I felt helpless I miss her everyday. Mothers are the glue that holds everyone together.. it broke me to pieces so seeing comments like this makes me smile.
I loved Betty White. She loved animals and I heard off screen she would tell dirty jokes 😂I thought she was so funny as Rose on the Golden Girls. Wonderful sense of humor ❤. RIP. She lived to be almost 100 year's old. God Bless her.
The expression on Johnny’s face when Betty mentions his ex-wives is comedy gold. Johnny will always remain the king of late night talk shows. He is missed.
Betty White learn to ad lib and improvise in radio, and would occasionally play characters. She began in radio because the Hollywood studios said she wasn't photogenic, even though she worked as a model. Within a few years, she had her own radio show and segued into live TV, where a quick wit and an ability to ad lib were essential. No doubt, she reviewed Carson's old jokes about her for this show, so her banter would appear spontaneous banter, but note how easily and quickly she picks up on comments that are "off script." She is so quick in this segment that Johnny has trouble keeping up with her.
Betty was one of the greatest comedians we have ever had, and she lived a very long happy fulfilling life. QE2 had to have one of the most fairytale lives ever lived, and She also lived a long happy life
I watched Golden Girls sometimes and the first time I saw Mrs B in a movie was Lake Placid. When she let lose with the potty mouth my jaw hit the floor and then I started laughing. She will greatly be missed.
Starting watching Golden Girls again. I wondered if it would hold up from when I watched reruns in the 90s. Totally does. They were killing it from the first episode.
Betty showing why Betty is, and how she became, a legend. Holding her own ... nay! ... taking charge of men who were legends of their own! My gut tells me Betty never entered a room full of men without knowing she would slay. And if that isn't the very definition of sexy, then I don't know what is. Old Broads are definitely the best!
Betty White was a extraordinary actress and a classy woman. I don't blame Johnny Carson for hitting on her because I would have done the same. May she R.I.P.
The humor, comedy sketches and Artists of them days were CLASSY and much more entertaining than the 21st Century ❤. One can have FUN without cursing....
@@fredingram3731 So right , oh , I forgot one of my favorites , Bob Hope , I still watch the old Vietnam U.S.O. shows , especially with Joey Heatherton . Whoa!
Saw much of Life With Elizabeth as well as Date With The Angels. Especially for those days, they were funny shows. Even enjoyed her on game shows. (Mostly Password) shortly after she started on Mary Tyler Moore, was a major fan. On tribute shows, (like one for Morgan Freeman) her whimsy and risque humor was a treat. Her delivery impeccable. She will be greatly missed.
Such a great historical interview, Johinny n Betty! Am missing wondetful lifes distractions of war n killing that they were willing to put out for us. Just laughs n good times! L
Betty was always had class was so charming as well as funny. She always looked and spoke to not just Johnny, but other guests including them in her conversation like personal friends. Wanted to include everybody like she was the party hostess and wanted to make everybody feel loved and important. God Blss.
As someone who lives only 5 miles from Intercourse, PA and goes shopping all the time at the King-of-Prussia Mall, Betty makes me smile in a whole new way. The fact that she could remember those town names even as a lifelong Californian is just really impressive.
RIP Johnny and Betty! Thanks for all the joy and the laughter. You may be gone but your comedy will never die.

Betty White was a extraordinary actress and a classy woman. I don't blame Johnny Carson for hitting on her because I would have done the same. May she R.I.P.
The humor, comedy sketches and Artists of them days were CLASSY and much more entertaining than the 21st Century ❤.
One can have FUN without cursing....
She's right...PA has a town called Intercourse, King of Prussia is a township, and we also have towns called Hookerville, and Cherry Valley.
Don't forget Blue Ball. As your neighbor in Ohio, I always stopped at Snow Shoe on my way to the east coast.
It's a good thing Betty didn't know about Hookerville, or that interview would have gone completely off the rails😂
went so smoothly...gr8 chemistry!
God Bless them all,
they gave us so many laughs and memories.
Johnny , Betty , and Doris day .... national treasures
I guess you know you're old when you can't stand any of the current popular people...
@@fredingram3731 So right , oh , I forgot one of my favorites , Bob Hope , I still watch the old Vietnam U.S.O. shows , especially with Joey Heatherton . Whoa!
Betty really was one in a million. Such charm, kindness and grace, even when she's talking about blue balls! LOL.
One of a billion, I would say…
@@chefbillybaroo2056 true.
Betty and Johnny are the peanut butter cups of late night talk shows! They taste great together! 😋
Saw much of Life With Elizabeth as well as Date With The Angels. Especially for those days, they were funny shows. Even enjoyed her on game shows. (Mostly Password) shortly after she started on Mary Tyler Moore, was a major fan. On tribute shows, (like one for Morgan Freeman) her whimsy and risque humor was a treat. Her delivery impeccable. She will be greatly missed.
Aw - I so miss them both. What fun it was to see them here.
Such a great historical interview, Johinny n Betty! Am missing wondetful lifes distractions of war n killing that they were willing to put out for us.
Just laughs n good times! L
An actual talk show host. And he's entertaining. Haven't seen one of those in decades
Betty White was the best! What a wit! Loved her! ❤❤❤
Funny watching her bust his chops!!! 😂😂😂
She barely aged a day since then, both physically and mentally. She was sharp as a tack till the day she died.
Betty was always had class was so charming as well as funny. She always looked and spoke to not just Johnny, but other guests including them in her conversation like personal friends. Wanted to include everybody like she was the party hostess and wanted to make everybody feel loved and important. God Blss.
Betty White was always a treasure.
As someone who lives only 5 miles from Intercourse, PA and goes shopping all the time at the King-of-Prussia Mall, Betty makes me smile in a whole new way. The fact that she could remember those town names even as a lifelong Californian is just really impressive.
Jimmy Fallon, can’t hold a candle to Johnny Carson.
No one can; JC was the GOAT!!!
But Johnny could NEVER lip sync like Jimmy. Jimmy is much more versatile, a real comedian.
Betty was born in 1922, three years before Johnny. So she's 64 years old here. Amazing.
I have to come back and watch this from time to time. Old broads are the best!!
I miss both of them!
She doesn’t miss a beat. Pure pleasure. Blue ball…😂😂😂
Betty White and Blanche Deveraux were the best Stars of the Golden Girls by far. Johnny Carson and Steve Allen were class Acts in tv.
Two of the most comforting shows to me are Mama’s Family and Golden Girls.
