  • Back in May of 1992, when Johnny Carson left the "Tonight" Show, the "Today" show did a week-long special on his career. Here is a small part of that special, with Katie Couric talking with frequent Tonight Show guest Don Rickles!

    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 ever, known to man.

      There's a chance that the mix of genes that created Don Rickles will form into the exact same code to produce another Don Rickles, but it probably won't happen for like billions of years, and he might have a different name. But even if the genetic code is the same, whatever environment that new Don Rickles would be in would shape his behaviour and thinking so he probably wouldn't be exactly the same.

      Don Rickles was born in 1926 so I doubt you've seen video footage of him in his 20s as that would've been the 40s-50s and to my knowledge there's no footage of him before the 60s.

    Now 65 , can still remember exactly where I was and the friends I was with the night Johnny signed off. What I most remember was how surreal it felt because he had been on the nightly TV in my family's house from the beginning of TV in the 1950's. The early programs were black and white, but the programming is still -- in my opinion, unmatched. In those early black and white programming days, the live TV was spontaneous, exciting and full of laugher. Laughter is what this young 65 year old viewer misses most from Johnny's signing off.

    Since this interview was live, it was 8:30AM in NYC, but it was 5:30AM in Burbank!! Can't think of a better way to get Don cranky than to roll him him out of bed early to talk about Carson. Notice the contractual requirement to talk to Don is you have to say where he will be appearing next. The only thing missing was saying Joe Scandori and Frank Sinatra.

If you want to see Don a tad off-guard, watch the Tonight Show clip with him and Michael Landon. Landon was perfectly prepared to neutralize him on occasion without it turning into a pissing contest. Shows you there are a lot of ways to skin a cat.
