It's 2022 and I still go back to Don Rickles videos to cheer me up! I didn't know until this interview how great Michael Landon's comedic timing was. RIP to all of them. Legends in their own right!

How I love these old Tonight Show segments. Probably more now as an adult than when I was a teenage. A lot of talent right there. No late night talk show of today holds a candle to Carson and his guests. 😂❤️
I have watched this several times and I just can't believe how perfect both Rickles and Carson dropped their jokes. You don't see that kind of comedy often these days.
@@none8680 you could check out: Phillis Diller, Dom Delois, Lucille Ball, Don Adams, Don Notts (a personal favourite), the unforgettable Mel Brooks and to round off this brief but brilliant list I give you the incomparable Gene Wilder eg a MUST SEE: 'Blazing Saddles' - enjoy!
@@none8680 I don’t know why I didn’t get a notification about your comment. My favorite older comics are Jackie Gleason, Rodney Dangerfield, Jonathan Winters and Buddy Hackett. They were all brilliant. If you get a chance, check out the video of Buddy Hackett on Johnny Carson. He tells three of the funniest jokes I’ve ever heard.
I remember always looking forward to when Don Rickles was on the Tonight Show. No matter how early I had to get up the next morning I would always stay up to watch. If there was a time machine I would go back to this era.
There will never be another Rickles. He brought humor and laughter into and from almost every situation. Our humorless society (largely speaking) could use a good dose of him today!
The sad thing is that all four of these extremely talented performers have passed away. Our world is truly poorer for it. They brought so much fun and enjoyment to millions of viewers on a regular basis.
When Don came on stage - they had a sign in back for him 'Genius at work' - always did comedy magic - we miss him and Robin Williams (RIP) - A pair that will never be again...
I had to smile when Michael Landon..said when he had good money, he bought a big salami..because as a kid..his family couldn't afford it. I came from a lage, poor, catholic family..of miners..in the North of England. When I got my first wage..I went to the local fish and chip shop..and bought everything I had not had as a kid. I couldn't eat is all so my younger brothers & sisters..finished it off. Great memory.
You only smiled?! I'm braying like an overly amused ass 😂😂😂 to think these guys got paid to dress up & crack jokes w their friends! Rickles roasting the staff & affiliates off stage, what a fun time!
Remember watching Johnny Carson since I was 9 in 1973 to 1992 when he retired. Has more class than today's so called hosts. Don Rickles is so very funny. Remember wayching his show ,CPO Sharkey. Always cracks me up.
This is pure gold!! I miss all of the "Old Timers" as we refer to them today...you still can't beat any of them with a stick...before everything was soooooooo PC...It's as classic as it is timeless for me...R.I.P. to all of them...It was a big deal and so much fun starting all the way from when I was a little girl until Johnny's last show...my Dad always knew when I was sitting at the top of the stairs ( Almost Nightly) and say "C'mon down here! I know that you're up!" I wouldn't trade those memories for anything...always laughing hysterically...
Im not American, this is a lot before my time, but from what i have seen on RUclips i would say that Don Rickles was probably the best Johnny Carson guest. The shows where Rickles is a guest are hilarious. Every single show is amazing.
50 years old. And still very funny. I was born in 1996. And I absolutely love watching old Johnny Carson, especially with Don Rickles. Rodney Dangerfield Jack Benny. George Burns. Etc.
This was such a pleasure to watch, I laughed sooo much when it was just rickles, when Landon came out with them all. It was a great combo of celebs. I never realized how witty Michael Landon was, I loved how he cracked up rickles and Carson, it was like a great script that was never written with these men together.
One of the reasons their comedy was so funny when guys like this got together were the jokes about each other, things the public knew or had heard about.
Exactly right.. they made the viewer feel like they were included in a casual confab between two or more friends. And the comic timing between them was off the charts even though it was unscripted.
WOW...Michael Landon was so sharp and on point. Back when life was sooo much better and we could all laugh at each other. Now I understand our elders. What have we come to !?!?
Back in the day when I lived in California I watched the shows at night when I was 8 9 and 10 years old.... love Johnny Carson after he left rumors was he was going to come back and do shows but God took him home. His love for tennis was huge.
When I think of the TV show Little House on the Prairie, I remember it as an old show of my youth that we watched regularly back in the 1970's (and of course all the reruns thereafter throughout the decades including this year in 2021). So when I see this Tonight Show episode & Johnny saying that it's a new showing coming out with Michael, it boggles my mind how fast time has flown. It's all in the perspective & perception of hindsight. The feeling of hindsight is also bittersweet, because I am now much older, my family has grown apart (RIP Dad) & all the good (and bad) memories of yesteryear will sometimes flood back.
@@christidmas3995 ... Also certain smells/odors will trigger memories, like perfumes, colognes, even the smell of campfire smoke reminds me of boyscouting in the early 1980s. Also dank moldy smells too. lmao, like decades-old books at the library or someone else's house. One thing my dad did right, without knowing it, is he took hundreds, if not a thousand, of photos (film camera) & also several home videos (vhs), even audio on cassette tapes.

@@robwebnoid5763 those are invaluable. My dad also took hundreds of pics as well if not thousands. He passed away two weeks ago and I took home his super 8 films he took during the 70s. Watching those were phenomenal. He left behind treasures for us all.

We did have HIGHLY shortened super8 films of movies, such as "Monster that Challenged the World" (1957) that only lasts like a few minutes or something, bought at stores in the 1970's. Now I have to figure that out too as I don't remember how to set the film/reel in the film projector (somewhere in storage), we all stopped using that when the 1980's came along, heh. And I just need more hard drive space before I start digitizing.
Sad, but i just chalk it up to ignorance. Not meant in any disrespectful way. No one really comprehended how much harm smoking could do. We now know better, so we ought to do better. He smoked four packs of Pall Mall cigarettes a day and died of emphysema.
Mr Rickles brought respect and love to all people. They knew what was coming up when they were destroyed by him. He gave a little bit of his beautiful soul to all of us thru his shows. RIP Maestro
Yeah there was a movie star who once said to him why don’t you ever insult me ? He said WHO ARe YOU? Then he hugged her! It was Angie Dickenson ! Lol he then told her I have to figure how to insult you your so beautiful.!
After Johnny retired, I stopped watching late night talk shows. Nothing was as good. It was always a treat when Rickles was on as a guest. One of the funniest guys ever!

Once u spend 5 minutes with rickles , you start searching everywhere for his humour. His roasting of Ronald Reagan was possibly the best I've listened too.
After discovering only a few years ago about this talk show I must say, where have I been all this time !,,,,,, probably the best talk show that has ever come out from the USA . Hi from the UK.
What it's like nowadays, reminds me of a time I had to talk to a shrink to get my daughter's attention deficient medication. Just visiting, I said, "her dad and I are both smart mouths, so she didn't stand a chance". He QUICKLY and SERIOUSLY replied, "what do you mean by that"?!?!
Can’t teach this. Rickles is simply amazing... astounding! Full tank, never on E! But I wonder, even if he rehearses it, how does he remember it all and make it all flow so effortlessly, and be so seamlessly effective? And with him its no bars hold yet the results are always great laughter and no harm done. In fact, a lot of his skits are enlightening and medicinal in that they expose the ridiculousness of many of our dearly held world-views. Great comedian Rickles!
I don’t think you can rehearse this. Don was just razor sharp and a natural. Thousands of hours on stage will do it. Dangerfield, Carlin, Robin Williams were really quick but not like Rickles. On this particular night he was on fire!
I am laughing harder and longer in this one video, than I have ever laughed a week of the other late night shows in this year 2022. My god, is it a generational thing, I'm 60, or were they night time hosts just more funny and talented? I so glad i an checking these out again. Just makes you appreciate the art and skill of the leaders of the television 📺.
You could tell at the beginning that Michael was nervous and shy but Don being Don made him felt so relaxed and at ease that even Michael became the joke, was the joke and made the joke. Don Rickles is one of a kind. The sweetest and kindest son of a bitch you'll ever known. God Rest His Soul...... Old Timer😂
It's 2022 and I still go back to Don Rickles videos to cheer me up! I didn't know until this interview how great Michael Landon's comedic timing was. RIP to all of them. Legends in their own right!

Anytime Don Rickles walked into the room, it instantly became the Don Rickles Show. RIP
9h so true!
But Don always did it respectfully. The worst example I've ever seen of someone disrepectfully taking over someone else's show was Howard Stern.
Rodney Dangerfield was the same way

There is a lot to be said about laughing from the Johnny Carson show at midnight before going to bed...it took all your stress away
You must own an EV! Lol. He's funny but I gotta a pile of stress these days
LOL.. Don Rickles is a riot in comedy and he always steals the show.
I love how they had so much fun, throwing jokes around. Late night shows aren't like this anymore.
There is nothing even close to this level of talent anymore on Late Night.
And people think James Corden is funny
HE IS NOT IN THEIR LEAGUE
No one today are in their league
I miss these guys

I am from Bulgaria and watched Little house on the Prerie for the first time this year(2024). It was so hearthwarming I almost cried.
I have watched this several times and I just can't believe how perfect both Rickles and Carson dropped their jokes. You don't see that kind of comedy often these days.

How can anyone not love Michael Landon. He adapted to every situation. He was comical and a most wonderful actor and director. The world misses him.
The camera loved Landon -- Bone structure , and that mane of hair.
He also could play very emotional scenes that most men cannot
He could go punch for punch with Mr Warmth himself I was stunned!
So true
Michael is a Legend
He sadly passed away too young.
A great actor and director
I love Highway to Heaven
Michael Landon may be the one guest I've ever seen keep up with Rickles on the couch during any of his apperances. So funny!+
Those of us who grew up watching these incredible men.. Treasures to Cherish
👍
It's like they just feed off other. I'd forgotten how funny Landon was. His timing was awesome. Watching Rickles crack up is priceless.
This is gold! TV will never be like this again.
Gone just like generation responsible for it.
So glad to see all these episodes I couldn't watch when I was told to go to bed. Johnny will always be the GOAT!
well, we can still try to work together.
That's for sure! Fallon is boring
The sad thing is that all four of these extremely talented performers have passed away. Our world is truly poorer for it. They brought so much fun and enjoyment to millions of viewers on a regular basis.
Everyone was in their prime form. Solid gold!
so miss all three of these guys. landon in particular seems so totally underrated, such a talent and loved his laugh!
Don Rickles always made me hysterical. One of the best in the business. Miss him we do.
Absolutely brilliant!! Always a favourite!!!!
Today, many would cry about his jokes!
Priceless. Can't get enough. God bless this bunch.
Thankyou Yoda

Enjoy..
Not a single glance at the cards .. legendary guest and host
Can't believe these guys are gone
Rickles was always side splitting laughter whenever on Carson so much it hurt! Miss him Carson and the whole Tonight Show.
Timing he had was impeccable. Combined with character. Unbelievable talent
Wow. Don was so brilliant. Could anyone on the internet now do what this man did for entertainment in the 70's. God is holding all there hands now.

It always touches me that as acerbic as his wit could be, Rickles’s humility, compliments and gratitude were always genuine and touching.
humility?
Don Rickles was so darn funny and ofcorse I loved Michael Landon ! He was the father figure I was always wanted for myself !
Too bad he wasn't the father his kids always wanted, at least from what I can tell.
The man is brilliant….never come across anyone like him b4……me ribs are aching…all the best from 🇬🇧

Always fun and respectful! RIP Don!
One of the reasons their comedy was so funny when guys like this got together were the jokes about each other, things the public knew or had heard about.

Michael Landon had such great humour and an amazing person. A classic post
@18:07 -- Michael Landon's timing was impeccable.
He was ready with that line, and it paid off.
WOW...Michael Landon was so sharp and on point. Back when life was sooo much better and we could all laugh at each other. Now I understand our elders. What have we come to !?!?
I've read that he was a really funny guy. I think he was known as a practical joker.
Tattoos , piercings and F Bombs being dropped all over the place and violence being the very in thing .
Yep.
Lack of respect. Lost children who have been raised to be automatons with no sense of self nor soul.
Yeah cause racism, lynching, and sexism was something to laugh about back then.
Back in the day when I lived in California I watched the shows at night when I was 8 9 and 10 years old.... love Johnny Carson after he left rumors was he was going to come back and do shows but God took him home. His love for tennis was huge.
These 3 are pure magic!
In 1974 I was 9 years old and have been watch Carson for several years. I always loved when Rickles hosted or was a guest on Tonight Show.
