- For fans of the ever-popular Tom Snyder / Billy Connolly clip --
( • Billy Connolly Tells J... )
Here’s a short batch of other moments from Tom’s 1990s late-night show.
Compliments to myyyclips3 for the David Steinberg bit - I’ve tried to
enhance his old VHS tape a little here, in terms of color and contrast, but
that clip is still very rough
Check out myyyclips3's other old TV footage here:

I was a regular caller to the Tom Snyder radio show back in the 90's. I was on about 10 times with various celebrities and Tom loved my jokes. His favorite was when I was on with Rita Coolidge and Tom told the joke, "What do you get when you play a country music record backwards -- you get your truck back, your wife back..." We all laughed and I said, "What do you get when you play new age music backwards?" Tom, still chuckling, said, "Tell us, Dan." "New Age music." Silence for a second, then Tom absolutely erupted in laughter, and I heard him tell that joke twice on his show after that, and one of those times he mentioned me by name, "That was from a caller named Dan from Hot Springs, Arkansas, and I guarantee he's listening now." I was on his last show and got a little emotional even though he warned everyone not to be, and I regret that. When his show ended he sent me an autographed portrait with the words, "To Dan Williams, a real favorite." It was destroyed when the apartment building I was living in burned to the ground a year and a day after Tom's death -- July 30, 2008. It hurts my heart to this day that both of them are gone forever. I could honestly cry right now, just thinking about it. I loved you, Tom. You kept my spirits up when I barely had anything but a radio to my name. Well, never mind, I am crying.
That was a good memory. Thanks for sharing 😊.
As a 22-year-old man who’s only recently discovered and subsequently become enamored with Tom Snyder and his work, thank you for sharing your story, and I hope you’re doing well.
God bless you and your loved ones.
I'm a metalhead from back in the day we told that country music joke all the time lol I forgot all about it
I know not a lot happens in new age music, so I think I got the joke, but wasn’t sure.
So I just looked the joke up online and found someone who actually played new age music clips backward, and you know what? They don’t sound bad at all - for new age music:

In a way, you were part of the show, at least in those moments. I share your feeling of loss, though yours is definitely greater than mine, having actually spoken to the man. Tom had a wonderful laugh that I still remember to this day.
No one laughed like Tom Snyder. You could just tell he was having a great time. He is sorely missed. RIP, Tom. There was no one else like you.
Very true. Growing up I watched him many times and always loved his realness, and his laugh. I miss him too.
Yep , I wish more people knew who Tom Snyder was .
And you're right about that laugh .
I liked him from the first time I saw him doing the local news in Philly when I was a little girl in 1965 and he was there with us for 5 years .
It was so great to see him go onto The Tomorrow Show and then more world news and then The Late Late Show .
Tom was such a great storyteller .
Tom was so great to wind down the day with after coming home from working the late shift. Grab yourself an adult beverage and watch the pictures as they fly through the air. Thanks Tom.
What a great guy!! A great interviewer, fabulous voice & that engaging laugh plus good looks!!! RIP Tom, we miss you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Laughed so hard during the dog stories, I cried! Late night talk will never be the same. Mr. Snyder was truly a national treasure!
His radio show got me through a lot of evening shifts in the early 90's.
Listening to his television show in the late '70s got me thru many night shifts working as a mainframe computer operator.
Tom Snyder. He made late nights comfortable where you could sit back and have this presence talking to you whether it's in bed or on the armchair
People can say what they want, but Tom Snyder did some GREAT interviews, and many of his programs were classics. ... and yes: HE LOVED TO LAUGH. rest in peace, you old warrior.
He always felt like my second dad when my father died in a car accident when I was 8.
what do people say? im young and unfamiliar
My God.... I miss this type of late night conversation instead of damn kids games......Miss you Tommy....
I haven't watched late night TV since he packed it in. Great guests, and he had class and style. Can't be said of today's crop.
I so wish I could have watched him when he was originally on.
He was darned good. Nobody has been better.
Tom was part of the connective tissue with my father. Dad stayed up late every night, when I could we would watch Tom after Johnny. DVR's were just kicking it when Tom left the air. I wonder if he could have continued with everyone recording everything today? Love and miss Tom.
My grand mother was a night owl. I learned so much from her and tom.
Unlike most of today's ilk. he was likable. Would love to have met him.
One day😇
@@Andrea-we6lz can't ... Tom Snyder died in 2007
I grew up falling asleep listening to him late at night on the radio. Brings back memories
The late/GREAT Mr. Tom Snyder. Thank you Mr. Snyder for gracing our lives with your style, class and professionalism. This country and world needs people like you today. We all miss your heartfelt love and veneration that you always put forth... All of us miss you so much. May your loving soul forever rest in peace in our fathers eternal kingdom. All of us greatly appreciate you gracing our lives and doing your job so well... Thank you Mr. Snyder; we miss you so much.

T.S. was simply the Best. CBS had the two best hours of Television in the Mid-1990's. Thanks for sharing.
Tom was a true gentleman.
What a class act he was....I was in my 20's when I watched Tom most late nights....the dark set was so informal and relaxing, you felt like he was in your home...I loved his style and that laugh....there will never be another talk show like Tom's again : (
I really miss this guy. His interviews were wonderful.
TOM WAS GREAT, I LOVED HIM SO MUCH. MISS HIM.
Great upload. I could listen to Tom's laugh all day long.
Shane Anthony So could I. Hell, I could listen to him read an entire phone book.
Shane Anthony especially his interviews with Don rickles. He was dying with laughter.
I'm 66 now, and have watched almost every Tomorrow show during its run. I really miss Tom Snyder. Just one of the many talk show hosts of the past that were truly entertaining. His likes will never be seen again.
I totally agree with you and I'm also your age .
I didn't always get to see all of his shows but I also was fortunate enough to see him do the local news in Philly KYW the local NBC affiliate way back in 1965 when I was 7 years old and he was with us until 1970 .
I always liked him and then was so glad when he went on to do The Tomorrow Show and then evening news and then The Late Late Show .
Too bad a lot of younger people don't know who he was .
Tom was/is a national treasure.....there simply could never be another this great.
My favourite Late Night host ever. Pure class.
The greatest interview I've ever seen on TV was Snyder interviewing Meat Loaf. He kept inadvertently calling him Meatball," and Loaf wasn't amused.
Finally, Snyder just called him "Meat."
omg YES!. That was so funny. I don't think Tom was feeling any pain that night. haha. I actually remember thinking that Meat was taking it pretty well. I sure wish someone had that one on tape.
@@robbiehankins760 Would love to see it!!
@@robbiehankins760 looks like it's up on RUclips now
@@crieverytim it rings a bell thanks I'm going to have to check it out right now
@@crieverytim the only one I found with Tom and meatball is the one that includes the guy that helped kill the Disco era , Steve Dahl .
That segment is good but it doesn't show Tom calling Meatloaf anything other than Meatloaf .
I can't find the rest of the segment or if he was ever on it another time .
What a peach of a fella. Thanks for sharing!
RIP Tom, my favorite talk show host of all time.
Tom was great. He did a couple of great interviews with Robert Blake on this show in the late 90's. I remember one where Blake bawled out the camera man for panning away from him when he took drags on his cigarette! What a hoot!
Back when the wee hours WERE the wee hours, there was something comforting about knowing that Tom was there. Not a lot of noise, no band, usually a dark background...it just fit, and Snyder was perfect for that slot: brash, silly, sometimes obnoxious, but always great. I sure miss watching the pictures as they fly through the air.
Not really obnoxious though that's not forward ... I think it was she had a certain kind of self-confidence and didn't care what people thought of him ... ?
What a laugh, what a character
What an interviewer.
I love this man and so miss him.
Tom didn’t do his homework for the late late show. But was a genus in the way he covered for it.
I miss tom. I have wonderful memories of staying up late and watching him. Good memories
R.I.P.
I miss this wonderful man. One of the good ones and the world needs more like him. Rest In Peace Mr. Tom Snyder.
Very funny interview, we miss you Tom, RIP. ^^
Great story about the expense account receipts. Tom, I miss you and wish you had enjoyed more retirement years!! Rest In Peace.
He gave me the impression he didn't really want to retire and that he loved doing what he was doing all those years .
It seems he should have lived at least a few years longer doesn't it
Miss ole Tom
Miss you Tom!!
Tom Snyder was a one off..there will never be another one like him.
You got that right ... and he is truly missed .
I always enjoyed Tom Snyder he was down to earth and just he is what he was
boy do i miss that show
Yeah Tom Snyder really was great on both of his shows
He had a terrific laugh. Ackroyd was right on.
I miss you tom
Best laugh after stan laurel hands down. Thanks Tom. You are missed♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
His one with KISS is legendary!
Rip Tom Snyder he was a great guy
Yes he really was and he had that great laugh
@@gardensofthegods I like Tom's laugh
@@quentinparhiala9415 yep !
Rip Tom u were a class act😁🇨🇦🇨🇦
Thank you so much :)
The flubs. I've been doing that a ton since turning 40. By the time I'm Tom's age in this clip collection I'm screwed!
We Miss you Tom ☹️
That was a wonderfully cerebral and humorous show. Not seen the like of Snyder since then.
Yep so true about Tom Snyder
Blessed to have watched him regularly after letterman
god i miss those days
Yeah me too
Thank you
I am begging someone to find and post Tom Snyder interviewing Madalyn Murray O’Hair,
Season 2, Episode 161: June 24, 1975.
It is gold, especially when Snyder asks O’Hair what she thinks will happen when she dies.
wow he was uneasy about the use of the word balls. wild
I've always liked Tom Snider. Heck he could have done an episode with no guests whatsoever and I'd love the episode!
So true and he was such a great storyteller
loved TOM, always did' always will' thanks big guy!
RIP Tom
I use to love watching this show back in the 90s, It was ashamed it it went off the air after only 4 season's.
I remember the Tomorrow Show that followed Carson. He was the consummate interviewer.
His laugh would get you laughing.
Yeah he had that infectious laugh
It's great when you are an orange tomatoe rich man. Haha! What a great time! The people love it!
Yes tell him is really missed by a lot of us who were fortunate enough to have watched his shows and it's a shame so many younger people don't even know who he was
do you have when brad garret was on and did a tom impression?
Tom has an amazing voice
John Lennon loved the show as a viewer to the point he contacted Tom offering him an interview- As it turned out it was probably one of the rarest incites before John went into 5 years hiatus returning in 1980 and the tragic murder
Mr. Snyder was one of the best. If you ever cared to be a decent talk show host take notes.
Yep but he's a hard act to follow because nobody could really be another Tom Snyder
He was funny!
I discovered The Roches on Snyder’s “Tomorrow.”
Why did you add a laugh track
Fire up a color tini!
I don’t remember this show having a laugh track or even an audience. Am I wrong?
That opening clip was pulled from when David Letterman replayed it on the 'Late Show', as a tribute to Snyder when he died in 2007 -- that's why there are audience reactions --
I remember when Tom's show ended and Craig Kilbourne replaced him. Ugh. I couldn't stand dude. When Ferguson arrived he got it. Even though he was totally different than what Tom did, in some ways their brand of dry humor was the same. I dont watch Colbert at all. Nothing but politics. Heck that's what they all became, even Letterman in the end, missing a valuable lesson Carson.
I guess it says something that I'm a 39 yr old that spends more time watching Carson, Rickles, and Ferguson on RUclips than actually turning on my TV.
you’re so right about Colbert. Fallon is the same way too. all obsessed with Trump and constantly talking about him. SNL also seems to have an obsession with him. its just boring and repetitive.
Yes sick of the politics and that's why I missed these older guys but especially Tom Snyder and I actually remember watching a lot of the TOMORROW shows and later the LATE LATE SHOW .
There was a very good audio book about Johnny Carson that used to be here and it was written by the guy who was his best friend and his lawyer .
It actually was very good and there a lot about him people didn't know ... but he could also have this dark side and is one football player said Johnny when he was drinking could be a nasty drunk .
Believe it or not in the end of his life he was pretty much all alone .
I would have loved someone to written a really good biography about Tom Snyder .
And in fact I actually remember seeing Tom Snyder do the local news in Philly when I was a little girl for KYW which was the NBC affiliate .
That was 1965 when I was 7 years old and I liked him right away ... he did our news for 5 years.
I was so thrilled later with this Tomorrow Show and The Late Late Show he just has a way of reaching out and making you a part of his fun and witty world .
I really miss that laugh of his .
I had no idea who Tom Snyder was until recently, but now I'm binge watching old episodes of The Tomorrow show.
Yep he was great wasn't he ?
***SWOONS***
Adieu!
Who is the girl? Drew? or Diane Lane?
It looks like Penelope Ann Miller.
its the voice
Used to smoke cigs on camera.
Yep the good old days when even news anchors could sit there with a cigarette and talk show people as well ... back when we had more freedom
Great comment that I connect with on multiple levels, until your unnecessarily gratuitous and not-so-subtly political and myopic last sentence. Ironically, that phrase represents everything Tom wasn't.
Still good to see those shows. I wish I had seen the original broadcast. Perhaps I have better perspective now. Cheers!
Did Tom Snyders show get cancelled? I havent seen him on lately.
Because he passed away in 2007.
His contract with the earth got cancelled 12 years ago
lol. must be some rock you're living under
Thank you for this! Don't care about the poor VHS quality clip, the audio is just fine and that's what matters!
Yes just always good seeing Tom Snyder .
I'm hoping someday somebody will upload more of Tom Snyder that they didn't realize they had recorded
I loved his late night show. Sit back and fire up the colortinnies.
