    Art Carney has to be the most underrated great talent ever in show business. He could do it all. He was a very quiet, almost shy man off stage, but when the lights were on, he was brilliant.

      @Joe Biggs I grew up in Fortlaudale. My older brother worked as a waiter at the Wharf. He put himself through college as a waiter. He used to wait on all the great actors Redd Foxx and Red Buttons used to come in together..he waited on them all the time. I used to see Jackie Gleason around town when I was young he lived just out West of us in Inverrary. Same with Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis these two were at all the fine restaurants like old Florida seafood and the Mai-Kai in Fortlaudale. These folks conducted themselves like ordinary folks. Johnny Carson himself used to just about live at the Yankee Clipper hotel on Fortlaudale Beach just south of the Bahia Mar. These folks were a blast and they were not in the least snobby. It was a wonderful time to be alive... Kindest Regards..

I really enjoyed your comment and had meant only to let you know I saw them as just regular folks. Of course that's all we thought of them back then also. I had never seen actors like them that people would disrespect or mob for their attention or even an autograph. It didn't happen. People just said hello and they'd reciprocate

    The man was absolutely an incredible, phenomenal talent, he could: act, sing, dance, play the piano, do incredible impressions (mimic) famous people. Art Carney could do it all! In some ways, more talented than Jackie Gleason, as rare as that could be. Art could legitimately be a jack-of-all-trades in polished talent. He won the Best Actor Award for his starring role in "Harry and Tonto" (1974), to prove he was among the best there ever was. On The Tonight Show episode, he was 22 days after his 56th birthday.

    All these people are gone and it's so sad. Johnny's show was one of a kind. There has been none like it after and won't be anything like it, ever.
    TBH, I never saw Johnny's show when it was on air. I have only seen it on youtube after it was invented. I was and am still a big fan of Conan's show. He hooked me on late night talk shows and he mentioned Johnny quite a few times. So when youtube came around I looked up Johnny and boy was it a revelation. I missed the best of the best. By about ten yrs. Johnny went off air in 1992 and I started watching late nights around 2002. Nowadays whenever Johnny's show is in my YT feed I watch it. It's always fun!

      "The $99,000 Answer" episode on "The Honeymooners" shows Art at his finest, playing opera or other classic musical pieces; all starting with what he told Ralph he had to do to warm-up, by playing a few bars of "Swanee River" (by Stephen Foster, 1851). That introductory bit came back to haunt Ralph, if you haven't seen that classic episode, you need to soon. There was hardly a funnier 'Honeymooners' episode of those classic 39 than "The $99,000 Answer!" (#18, aired Jan. 28, 1956)

    Johnny Carson was the very best talk show host of all time! The guests he could get on his show. Many we knew, but we got to see a different side of them. Then lesser known people, who also turned out to be so interesting to us ALL. i remember that elderly farmer, I think he was in his late 90s. He was a riot! So many great guests were on his show. The talk shows these days 2020s just don't feel anything like the talk shows of the past. My opinion of talk shows other than Carson number 1 are just random. 1. Johnny Carson. 2. Tom Snyder 3. Dick Cavett 4. Mike Douglas 5. David Letterman.. who am I missing? This is just MY lists. There are others. For me the 90s it came to an end. Letterman retired in 2015. But he started in the 80s. So many good ones. Jay Leno was great as well.

      I to, have been a life long "fan" of Arts, and as for myself, I did.. more or less "grow up with he & Jackie Gleason when the Honeymooners TV show came on the air in 1955... in fact it was perfect timing, as my dad brought home our very first, TV set that same year... what a way to "break it in"! lol
      I hope you do get the opportunity to go see his grave site in Old Saybrook.... something tell me that really being the kind of "down to earth" man he was... his gravestone is probably fairly "simple and humble"... not much, or no different than anyone else's, there at Riverside Cemetery.
      When he passed away in 1993 (died peacefully, in his sleep), just 5 days after his 85th birthday... he was still married to his First wife, Jean - for the second time.
      They were high school sweethearts and they got married the first time, in 1940 and divorced in 1965 if I remember right - due to an "outside" relationship with his production assistant, Barbara ??? who he married a year later in 66 - divorced in 1977, he was also a self admitted alcoholic (as well as "uppers", etc)... then remarried to Jean, his first wife in 1980 until he passed away in 93... she passed on around the end of Oct. 2012... I've forgotten the date exactly, but I do remember that she was 93... same age as my mother, almost to the day, but a year older than my mother.
      I'm sure you noticed the "limp" he had..??.... it was due to his right leg being 3/4" shorter than his left leg... as a result of bad shrapnel wounds he received during the Battle of Normandy (Bloodiest battle of the war) during WW2, and for which he received the Purple Heart (me to).. he was with the 28th Infantry Div. as a machine gunner and machine gun crewman (.50 cal.).
