Rodney had impeccable timing and delivery. You laughed non-stop, and notice...not one racial slur or religious slur or sexual slur joke like many of today's so-called "comedians". RIP Rodney, you were one of the very best.

His act was consistent most of his life and didn't succeed until later into his career I think you calling him clean has more to do with what is acceptable to say today vs then . Having jokes about intercourse was taboo let alone your wife cheating on you. Anyways this is long and pointless way to say I agree Rodney is Mount Rushmore of comedians great, but the second half of your statement might have more to do with reminiscing and aging than with facts.
face it ... life is better when lived offline. If you are seeing a comedian for the first time then there is no need to ruin it by seeing them online or ever gong to see them a second time. They will be using the same jokes from the first time the second time you go see them a year later.
Rodney never topped this--Tonight Show, the audience interaction/familiarity with the act, the timing, the delivery. He was on fire. One of the greatest ever. R.I.P.
It's sad to think we will never see the likes of Carson, Robin Williams, Jonathan Winters, Dangerfield, etc.ever again. It was a different time then. Thank God for U-Tube.
I'm a 64 year old Englishman, only just discovered this man (although his name did ring a distant bell)..I've just watched this and I nearly stopped breathing for laughter. .pure genius - compare this to the PC crap now that tries to pass as talent. ..
+george fish You are obviously from this current generation. Arent you. Typical shmo in his basement or bedroom sitting in your underwear thinking your hot shit sitting and clicking and clacking on your keyboard
COSMO McCaulley That's why he hasn't been on any talk shows or movies in the past 12 years. I tell ya, he gets no respect, not even after he's DIED, he gets no respect. Give him one'a these. (makes Ok sign with his fingers) That's all he really wanted... Just one'a these. :)
Crying my eyes out from laughing. Johnny was a perfect straight man. Rodney's delivery of these gems is classic. Like a machine gun, just mowing 'em down.
I saw Rodney Dangerfield on stage in New York in the early 70’s. I was laughing so hard he actually pointed at me and said “You must be from Connecticut!” He was right, it took 3hrs to drive to his show in snow from Ct. He was amazing.
That's great, I loved Rodney in the 1980s when he absolutely rose to superstardom. I saw Bill Burr in his prime in Detroit in 2013 and almost fell out of my chair into the aisle.

TacomaPaul yes I so remember this joke when it first aired in 1985 or 86 but me and laughed and talked about that one little joke that left such an impression on us, like you said "comedy gold "
I miss his comic genius. This clip took me back and made howl again. Damn he was great. God bless you Rodney. I hope you knew how much you were really loved.
And, Rodney started late in life as a comedian. His wife got very sick, but Rodney hung with her until she died, then he hit the road and never looked back.
Crying my eyes out from laughing. Johnny was a perfect straight man. Rodney's delivery of these gems is classic. Like a machine gun, just mowing 'em down.
The sheer brilliance of the straight man. It appears easy but most Hollywood egos would ruin this bit by interjecting their lame opinions or jokes. In this case less is way more.
If you don't like Rodney you have no sense of humor. I'm 34 and grew up on him. My dad and I still quote him all the time. Back to school, Easy Money are classics. Love watching his old stand up stuff too. He's the best
As an English lit major I’m constantly reminded of the scene in back to school where his professor accuses him of cheating, says she has no idea who he paid to write about Vonnegut’s book, but they obviously know nothing about... next thing you see is Rodney telling Kurt Vonnegut to pound sand he wasn’t paying!
+jamesd2128 Timing... sure. That and writing about 10 million jokes. You will never see a modern comic cram that many jokes into 3-4 minutes of interview. He was a joke machine if there ever was one.
+DvdRLgh One of my favorites was when he said my wife get's loud during sex. Why the other night she got so loud i had to go next door and tell her to hold it down.
Jajajaj the part i like is when he said money dont mean anything. My hair is still the same. It dont meaan anything he said. And then he said suddenly im depresss jajajaja i fell out when he said that !;) ajajaja funny man!;) jajaaj
apparently in Caddyshack they just kept on increasing his lines and expanding his parts after seeing each day's cuts that he was in. Was only supposed to be a minor part initially.
Frenk van Vlissingen I believe it because I can do such things and make everyone crack.Ofcourse he is way better because he has had years doing it and im just 18 ;)
+Frenk van Vlissingen wow, guess what Frenk? You just won 'RUclips Douchebag of the Year!' Congratulations on making the world a better place friend! Yes, there's nothing like not only being a hypocrite & doing to others what you would just SHIT if it was done too you, but also jumping a complete strangers shit completely UNPROVOKED, as if their happiness actually irritates you, bravo! Thank you sir for doing your part to make the world even colder, crueler, & shittier. Oh BTW, we also have some adorable cute puppies in the back here you could kick if you'd like!!
Easy Money DVD has been I my "Saved List" on my Netflix DVD Que, but now I not sure if it actually exists... could be so old it was pre-DVD... like you, I have an old VHS somewhere, but may search on eBay or Amazon
Make sure that you can still get the drive belts for whatever product that you are considering. Easily the most troublesome part when the machine fails.
Love me some Dangerfield! Miss that funny bastard, RIP! Always wanted to see one of his stand up gigs,wouldnt be able to catch my breath from laughing so hard.
I agree Johnny was the best, until you get to Jimmy Fallon. I wasn't impressed with Jay Leno I would only watch on rare occasion if I liked the guest. Overall, Fallon is the most talented. his impressions, his Musical knowledge, his singing, his acting, all the fun games he plays... then you add the comedy of Steve Higgins and their back and forth banter plus the Roots and he's hands down the best of all of them.
Rodney was the greatest and a good man.Walked away from show biz just as he finally started to make it to raise a daughter.Class act.He gets my Respect.
Jimmy fallon is such an amateur compared to these guys!Fallon,the other night got a bunch on stage wearing plaid......So what!this went on andon...Then the stupid guy in the back started saying'' Plaid night''over and fucking over.Then the bad did!!!!Homor free...talent free dumbfucks...As if someone told them to go out and kill an hour...I finally turned it off before the guests came on.....SILLY FOR SILLY SAKE..HAT A WASTE n
All of us across America....hold on to the past....Our future holds more sorrows..with all our people we laughed with and our talented singers going...Hold on to Someone you care about and all your Loved ones.
That's why Carson will always be the king of late night---he was smart enough to let his guests shine and do their thing!! All the other late night hosts since (with the possible exception of Letterman) try to upstage their guests and it's obnoxious as sh*(&t!!
@@nyterpfan I completely agree. The #1 late night host attention whore was Leno. That man CANNOT deal with being upstaged by ANYONE & it totally annoyed me to no end. After royally screwing a poor, upcoming, new upcoming REALLY naturally hilarious Conan O'Brien I lost complete interest & respect for Leno. He was formally leaving late night & it was decided that O'Brien was to replace his spot. Right when O'Brien was close to making his life dream premiere, BAM! Leno drops a nasty bomb on him by stating he's not quite ready 2 retire & announces his "comeback" to late night thereby stalling O'Brien's dream spot!! Leno is such an attention ho!
Dangerfield is brilliant, but another reason I love this video is that it shows how Johnny Carson was one of the best "straight men" in the business, as well as one of the funniest men that ever lived. Straight man or comic Johnny's timing was always perfect.
The good old days before political correctness smothered comedy... Rodney Dangerfield, George Carlin, Richard Prior,Don Rickles, Mel Brooks... The likes of these comedians will never be seen again
Ade Huggins Which one of them has had a major comedy special lately? Not a direct to video recording of a show, but a legit "Live from Carnage Hall" type of show? Another big difference is I listed American comedians, because it seems like the USA is where the major SJW problem resides. The lifeblood of an up and coming comedian into the 90s was college gigs. This is where they could earn their chops in front of an open minded free thinking audience. I don't know about the UK, but there's no way you would get anyone on either of our lists to do a show on an American campus these days.
I don't think college/universities have the same sort of 'alternative' feel as they used to, it's the same in the UK. That seems to have shifted more towards comedy clubs now, I think anyway. Ricky Gervais is not exactly 'PC' and he's selling out massive venues in the States (not sure about American comics of the same status). I think there is plenty of the more risky stuff out there. Where you find it has just changed.
Fantastic. During Caddyshack, he thought he was bombing because nobody on the set was laughing. They had to tell him no one can laugh on set, the audience will explode later.
Nobody has ever made me laugh more than the immortal Rodney, simply the best of the best. Need to watch him on u tube whenever I'm depressed. So much better than those crazy drugs with a half an hour of side effects!
@@fredkaplan9720 The show was on at 11:30. Theoretically, the kids where in bed. That time slot was as near to cable as there was at that time. Nevertheless, I'm not sure I'd say "filthy."
You know you're great comedian when you can make people laugh even before you give the punchline. Every single body movememt was perfectly timed. No one delivered a joke better than Rodney. Comedic genius. G.O.A.T
These guys were so talented ... I mean Dangerfield can just sit there and put out jokes that are all funny so naturally. Todays tallent just cant compete with these guys.
one of the funniest EVER, hands down... saw him at the Sunrise Theatre in Ft. Lauderdale once and my face and stomach hurt for 4 days from laughin' non-stop--
Probably the greatest standup comedian who ever lived. His jokes are not just funny, but GOOD. He doesn't need profanity, He's consistent, He's always "On Top" of his game, never at a loss for a joke for any occasion or topic. Even his movies are Great. It's just My opinion, but this is Real Comedy Classical, and Rodney Dangerfield is King.
Freakin love Rodney Dangerfield!!! Wish I could have seen him live. He never fails to make me laugh, I mean his facial expressions are priceless. He deserves more respect. What a comedy genius he was! Miss Johnny Carson too. I grew up with the Tonight Show.....
Rodney had impeccable timing and delivery. You laughed non-stop, and notice...not one racial slur or religious slur or sexual slur joke like many of today's so-called "comedians". RIP Rodney, you were one of the very best.
I agree, I think the comedians of today lack the education to get a laugh without using foul language.
Same here. Most comedians of today are vulgar at best.
There was a change in the 90's to late 80's as stand-up grew and self imploded. Previously Rodney and Jay Leno were the reigning kings with the classic style of a laugh every 15 sec. The other main style of comedy came from Pryor and Carlin, Carlin being more orthodox, but honesty and confrontation were a major part of their style. Sadly Rodney's style became rare and looked down upon because hacks were associated with it. Most newer comedians were heavily influenced by the later style and with social media being what it is building a library of quick jokes to use on audiences is harder than before and a lot of crowds turn when they hear jokes they heard before. But Rodney was filthy just not on stage, he brought up the filthiest comedians of the 80's, Dice, Kinnison, Hicks. His act was consistent most of his life and didn't succeed until later into his career I think you calling him clean has more to do with what is acceptable to say today vs then . Having jokes about intercourse was taboo let alone your wife cheating on you. Anyways this is long and pointless way to say I agree Rodney is Mount Rushmore of comedians great, but the second half of your statement might have more to do with reminiscing and aging than with facts.

Sometimes it pays to see them live. Some comedians cuss and tell more politically incorrect jokes when the're not being recorded for broadcast.
Rodney never topped this--Tonight Show, the audience interaction/familiarity with the act, the timing, the delivery. He was on fire. One of the greatest ever. R.I.P.
It's sad to think we will never see the likes of Carson, Robin Williams, Jonathan Winters, Dangerfield, etc.ever again.
It was a different time then. Thank God for U-Tube.
Julian A ...I agree..it'll never be that good again...
Julian, thank God for RUclips also!
Except Robin was a joke-stealing hack.
Mike Dunn Yea, mid twenty something old person
Mike Dunn Wait, when did I say what you are suggesting I apparently said?
In my opinion Rodney Dangerfield was the best stand-up comedian there has ever been.
Ask guys like Sandler, Seinfeld, Foxworthy and they’ll tell you he is the model by which all comedians aspire to be.
agree...the best ever. funniest one liners ever
DownSouth
Real close between Rodney, Jackie, Lucille, and Richard.....
All four have comic genius in their different styles.
@Kula Cnt Go play in the traffic, the 405 works for me...
Then why was he sitting down?
I'm a 64 year old Englishman, only just discovered this man (although his name did ring a distant bell)..I've just watched this and I nearly stopped breathing for laughter. .pure genius - compare this to the PC crap now that tries to pass as talent. ..
Exactly,
Rodney Dangerfield is easily
AND by far THE G.o.a.t. of Comedians !!!!!
@geezusispan Hey KAREN; you're head's gonna EXPLODE tonight after Trump wins.!!!! Educate yourself...snowflake
I miss this guy! He was the funnies guy out there! Love all his movies and watched his comedy all the time... Rip Rodney 😢
+george fish George you have serious issues. Please stay confined to your trailer park.
It does not matter what I am. It's very clear to everyone what you are which is a trailer trash piece of scat.

+Marc S Just end the conversation with this guy. Your talking to a someone with the intelligience of a piece of metal
LOL!! Yep! I was so right! LOL!!! Beam me up Scotty, no intelligient life form found here.
Even though Rodney has died his material is still funnier than anything today!
Back in a time when comics were actually funny and didn't have to dance around that political correctness bullsh*t.
WAIT..RODNEY IS DEAD??
COSMO McCaulley
That's why he hasn't been on any talk shows or movies in the past 12 years. I tell ya, he gets no respect, not even after he's DIED, he gets no respect. Give him one'a these. (makes Ok sign with his fingers) That's all he really wanted... Just one'a these. :)
WAIT ! WAIT ! SO ARE YOU.
What is heard was he was trying to extend his life through an operation and didn't make it through the operation.
even his sex jokes are classier than the shit we see today
I told my son that he'd have kids of his own one day. He told me "So will you"
you don't happen to be born in the wrong generation do you?

Johnny was a real pro. He allowed his guests to do their thing without constantly interrupting them and trying to be cute.
Fallon needs to get the DVD set, and study... ;-P
That was real entertainment back then
Laddie Meadows 2 classic and classy men joking around. Now all we got are politically biased douchebags with a talk show
Rachael Ray..f-in bitch never stops talking

Punch line after punch line after punch line. He would eat any comedian alive today.
Yeah he was a comedic genius. He truly shines in Caddy Shack and Back to School.
"Hey everybody! We're gonna get laid!..." Classic!
"Last time I saw a hat like that it came with a bowl of soup! Looks good on you though..." Classic!

Whoever voted thumbs down needs to be castrated. Rodney always will be the king. Lines, delivery, the physical ticks. Best ever.
Ed Faehr physical tics.... Aka ungodly amount of cocaine.
as long as you arrive at the destination, it doesnt matter if you walked, took a bus, or sometimes, a spaceship. Point is you arrived.
It was a girl who gave thumbs down!
Rodney passed away 14 years ago today. He was a classic comedian on a level of his own.
I like how honestly Johnny laughed at Rodney's jokes. Unlike today's show hosts, they fake everything.
She said, "Come on over. Nobody's home".
So I went over there. Nobody was home.
Dammit, that's comedy gold.
Love Rodney.

Gary Brice he's Yoggi....... That's my take
And, Rodney started late in life as a comedian. His wife got very sick, but Rodney hung with her until she died, then he hit the road and never looked back.
Comic genius. "I get no respect, even my twin brother forgets my birthday."
Gut laughs are so healing 😄😃😀
Love him!
Rodney you always said you got no respect. But just one voice......I have always had the utmost respect for you!
He absolutely killed in the 1980s, and rose to enormous fame and respect! He was a major highlight of that decade.
Crying my eyes out from laughing. Johnny was a perfect straight man. Rodney's delivery of these gems is classic. Like a machine gun, just mowing 'em down.
classic ! Notice how Carson, who mastered the art of a host, simply lets Rodney loose.

Rodney is best off the leash.
Easy money is an underrated comedy classic. Really good movie, funny as hell.
+Chris J One of my favorites! Him on that exercise bicycle in front of the xmas tree, Joe Pesci from back in the day...
+Chris J Takes me back to my early 20s. Hangin' out with my 3 best friends. We saw this in the movie theatre. Billy Joel sang the opening song.
Agreed. non stop laughs. Rodney would have made a great working class photographer. Hanging out with his pals at the track. Rich mother-in-law.
Johnny is the ultimate straight man and let the king of one liners do his thing all in the guise of an interview.
so true !

Yes, and you can see he LOVES doing it for Rodney.
The sheer brilliance of the straight man. It appears easy but most Hollywood egos would ruin this bit by interjecting their lame opinions or jokes. In this case less is way more.
Rodney was the Master of the One Liner, and the Zingers he could throw are Legendary.
in these precise moments I realize internet is gold for having these magnificent uploads of innocent and classy times.
So much material and the perfect guy to deliver it.
Rodney -- what an original class act he was. Prepared or ad-libbing. Helped to discover many comedians and gave them their first breaks.

Know your rights
Make sure that you can still get the drive belts for whatever product that you are considering. Easily the most troublesome part when the machine fails.
You know you are watching a damn good comedian when you can't go 5 seconds without laughing
Or, you only hear every other one from laughing too long.
Love me some Dangerfield! Miss that funny bastard, RIP! Always wanted to see one of his stand up gigs,wouldnt be able to catch my breath from laughing so hard.
I love Rodney Dangerfield. The old Borscht Belt comics were the best.
There will never be another Johnny Carson. He was the best. I remember when he took over Jack Par's slot.
I agree Johnny was the best, until you get to Jimmy Fallon. I wasn't impressed with Jay Leno I would only watch on rare occasion if I liked the guest.

He's the funniest comedian I've ever heard
"I was an ugly child. When I was born, the doctor slapped my mother!"
I love how Johnny just sits back and let's his guests take over. He doesn't feel like he has to own every moment. Miss that.

Another big difference is I listed American comedians, because it seems like the USA is where the major SJW problem resides. The lifeblood of an up and coming comedian into the 90s was college gigs. This is where they could earn their chops in front of an open minded free thinking audience. I don't know about the UK, but there's no way you would get anyone on either of our lists to do a show on an American campus these days.
I don't think college/universities have the same sort of 'alternative' feel as they used to, it's the same in the UK. That seems to have shifted more towards comedy clubs now, I think anyway. Ricky Gervais is not exactly 'PC' and he's selling out massive venues in the States (not sure about American comics of the same status). I think there is plenty of the more risky stuff out there. Where you find it has just changed.

I had the great good fortune to see the great Jacob Cohen perform in person many years ago. He killed! Thanks for posting this old gem.

Loved that one...😄😄😄
I've heard these joke many times, and I still laugh.
A legend in his own time! Never be equalled or replaced! RIP Rodney!!
Fantastic. During Caddyshack, he thought he was bombing because nobody on the set was laughing.
They had to tell him no one can laugh on set, the audience will explode later.
And they were right on
The best comic of my generation.
Rodney Dangerfield.
There will never be a late night TV host as good as Johnny Carson.
Rodney would always take a second to acknowledge and thank the audience he was a class act!
I forgot how funny he is. he was the greatest. One joke after the other. No one like this now, comedians are too much alike.
Nobody has ever made me laugh more than the immortal Rodney, simply the best of the best. Need to watch him on u tube whenever I'm depressed. So much better than those crazy drugs with a half an hour of side effects!
No one could band out the one-liners like Rodney. What a memory he had.
There will never be another Rodney Dangerfield.
Some jokes are very filthy but some are quite cute and true
Fuck both of you!
@@fredkaplan9720 The show was on at 11:30. Theoretically, the kids where in bed. That time slot was as near to cable as there was at that time. Nevertheless, I'm not sure I'd say "filthy."
Thanks for being so well informed.

They don't make comedians this good any more.
+Phish Munger true dat! They broke the mold with Rodney!
You know you're great comedian when you can make people laugh even before you give the punchline. Every single body movememt was perfectly timed. No one delivered a joke better than Rodney. Comedic genius. G.O.A.T
323 people do not deserve any respect!
fucking genius. Rodney is a legend. one of the best comedians every to live
Master of self-depreciation.

Thanks friends
One of the funniest people ever
Sean C he must know 10000 one liners and could remember them all. Very clever man
Yeah he does and he keeps hitting you with one after the other until your stomach hurts from laughing
that was the Chinese food you ate last night.
Jesse Bowman But I didn't have Chinese food last night
Sean C Well I feel sorry for your dog. That's what I call fast food.
Johnny was and still is the BEST........RIP Johnny.....miss you
Barbara Perry I think Jim Carrey is funnier

"Money don't mean nothing. You got the same head, you're the same guy." Wow, good call.
PaulGreen11 True!! Talk about perfect advice for life.
Being depressed is a lot more fun with money.
Being dead is about the same.
Great honest response! 👍🏼 Comedians and artists today have so much to learn.
Genius!!! One of the all time BEST comedians EVER!!!
He makes the whole interview a comedy routine. I've never seen anyone else do that. That's classy. True professional. Very funny as well!
Carson let him do that. It was really "stand up" while sitting on the couch.
my favorite comedians of all time. his faces & the delivery are great
A true King of Comedy, Rodney was one of the best.. No so called comedian today could hold a lit match to this man and his quick wit humor
Johnny Carson I missed that guy me and my dad used to sit down 11 PM every night in Brooklyn and watch this God bless him
These guys were so talented ... I mean Dangerfield can just sit there and put out jokes that are all funny so naturally. Todays tallent just cant compete with these guys.
one of the funniest EVER, hands down... saw him at the Sunrise Theatre in Ft. Lauderdale once and my face and stomach hurt for 4 days from laughin' non-stop--
Holy Crap, my sides are hurting, R.I.P Rodney.
MDKArtist l
Rodney was my favorite comic. I remember his first appearance on the Carson Show and always made sure to watch Carson whenever he was a guest.
Best performance ever by Rodney and Johnny
I love that Johnny just let him go....
Johnny was THE PERFECT STRAIGHT-MAN for Rodney. they loved and respected each other's talents.
Johnny Botts Probably his easiest interview ever. Just let him go ya know he's gonna be great.
Walk woods
Jimmy Fallic could learn from Johnny
Johnny Boggs
I ordered pigs in a blanket, she brought me a picture of my parents in bed.
King of the one liners...
+James Taylor No Henny Youngman was king of the one liners. He preceded Rodney.
Probably the greatest standup comedian who ever lived. His jokes are not just funny, but GOOD. He doesn't need profanity, He's consistent, He's always "On Top" of his game, never at a loss for a joke for any occasion or topic. Even his movies are Great. It's just My opinion, but this is Real Comedy Classical, and Rodney Dangerfield is King.
Freakin love Rodney Dangerfield!!! Wish I could have seen him live. He never fails to make me laugh, I mean his facial expressions are priceless. He deserves more respect. What a comedy genius he was! Miss Johnny Carson too. I grew up with the Tonight Show.....
this guy, legendary in the comedic genre, notice how. he handle the audience on the fat jokes let's of a string of em 4 the next 2 minutes
Classic. People could take a joke in the ol' days.
Absolutely true THESE DAYS YOU CANT EVEN FART WITHOUT SOMEONE SAYING SOMETHING SNOWFLAKE SOCIETY
Feminism is shit
The best oof us is in the past, the future is bleak
What's amazing is Rodney could keep a straight face through his entire monologue.
timing, great material and one of the best deliveries in show biz....
Boy are they ever missed.? Loved all of Rodney's Movies.? RIP Rodney, & Johnny.
From a time when you could tell a joke and that's all it was A JOKE!
Exactly, now people would be throwing a fit about jokes like this, Rodney was the greatest
You still can, just not in the US apparently.
Tell that to the 1.7k triggered crybabies on Social Media
The greatest!! He was hysterical.
I forgot how amazing this man was.
I saw Rodney live once. One of most funniest guys ever. I never will forget him.
one of the best! smile, giggle, and lots of laughs,, thanks for the fun,,
they don't make them like this anymore
We still laugh out loud ,thinking about his jokes,.Thankyou Rodney,may you rest in peace . Knock em dead .
They really don’t
