@Conway Twitter Thanks for your reply to that comment. That person was right. Michael Landon did squeeze alot I to 54 years. It seems he was on tv his whole life and tried to bring morals to some of his shows. But I'm also glad you said what you said. Sometimes we really like celebrities when we might have an impact as well in our own way. We tend to forget that because most of us aren't rich or famous or " beautiful". But God can use us regardless. So thanks again
He was an awesome actor ! When you know you’re dying & have the joy he had, he knew he was going to a better place & Jesus would Say: Welcome, My Good & Faithful Servant🙋♀️♥️
Actually he's one of the situations where you don't need to know much about your heroes. He sucked as a husband and father and left 6 kids by two wives that he just abandoned plus the three with the last wife.
My dad beat me. I was abused by classmates and teachers throughout my entire life. But when I watched Mr. Landon, in anything he did, I was at peace, I just wished he was my father, so much. I love you and am so grateful for how you touched so many of us. May you and your lineage be forever blessed.
I will never forget this interview. Not long after this, a co-worker was diagnosed with the same issue, and was gone in four weeks. She came in after hours, cleaned out her office and mailed a letter to the staff later. It makes me cry to this day. She and I had been in a training prior to her going to the Dr. and she said.....I think I am really sick. later she called me and said she didn't have long to live and the Dr. and nurses were all crying when they told her. Her heart wrenching letter to us telling us not to forget her daughters and go to their sports. The last week of her life she invited us over and was toasting us as we drove away with her mountain dew. She asked to be left alone to spend time with her family after that. This was over twenty years ago and I still think of her every day
I'll never forget the day he died, I cried and cried and cried😢 Rewatching all Little House on the Prairie episodes now, trying to relieve my happier childhood dayz ~ Michael Landon's acting is unforgettable ~ Rest in Peace Pa❣🕊🤠
Hollywood has always been a land of make-believe. Many celebrities present themselves one way, but they are actually another. Many ordinary people are very two-faced as well. Politics don't even matter.
@@BAKER22-l4u Johnny was closed off. He didn’t trust a lot of people. Older he got, the less he trusted. Landon was a rare one he hung with outside of the cameras or parties

So very handsome even at the end..held his head high always..been watching all the highway to heaven episodes from pilot to end..miss his beautiful face..remember growing up in mid 80's he was on everything
Who didn't love LHOTP. But alas Landon was a strange man. Apparently he had a cruel streak. Melissa Sue (Mary) said that as did Karen Grassle (Caroline). Landon reduced Karen's salary & scenes in season 2 & onwards
@@susanford2388 research the character that played Mary and you will find that she wasn't liked by many of the staff. She was known for being snooty and very uptight. Karen, also complained about her character as Caroline because she felt like she was dominated over Charles. She is like your typical Hollywood celebrity with their woman need to be treated equal bullshit. Well your playing the role of a pioneers wife. In those days, you worked from home and the man of the house was in control and had more say. So i can't blame him for not being as nice to the complainers. He was noted as being a man that worked hard and expected the staff to work just as hard. Everyone else that was a part of that show had amazing thing's to say about him. But just like any Hollywood celebrity, they are all bought and paid for by the devil. We don't watch much tv in this house. We do however watch reruns of LHOTP and The Walton's A LOT!
I grew up watching re-runs of Little House and Bonanza. His role as Charles Ingalls had such an impact on me. My father was abusive and abandoned my sister and me when we were young. Mr. Ingalls was the loving, caring father I wanted in my life. There's so much nostalgia when I watch Mr. Landon in anything. Pa was and always will be my dad too lol I'm sure others can relate to that ❤
When Michael Landon was a boy he had a very abusive mother. it is interesting that when he grew older he adopted quite a few children, all of which eventually went to college.
I loved highway to heaven. In the early 90s I worked in a crazy bar while going to college. Just mayhem every fri and sat. Coconuts nite club in Burnaby. It was brutal. I would come home at 4am and unwind with a 7-11 burrito and watch Michael Landon and victor french on highway to heaven.
Robert Smith It still does. And the drugs still kill people. They tried to kill a friend of mine. They gave him drugs that made him sick. He still died of pancreatic cancer. Not only that They murdered my Mother!!
Sick thing is. Government know there’s a cure for cancer. Google ‘Cancer Act 1939.’ Michael knew how to heal his body back then. It’s known that Dandelion milk juice kills cancer. And high vitamin C intravenous too. It’s a pity they didn’t have the internet back then. Such a brave man.
I have “chronic” pancreatitis. I am taking Creon for it with every meal including snacks. I have some episodes of left upper pain right under my rib cage where the stomach is. The pancreas is in deeper. I guess my fate is sealed cuz my Dad died at 68 y.o. from Pancreatic cancer. He was so ill. He died in 3 months from diagnosis. I bet he had the chronic form like I have, but he never complained of pain. I worry that the chronic pancreatitis I have will turn into cancer as well🥺It is a risk factor for it. All in all, the chronic form is a progressive destruction of the pancreas. How long I live until it kills me is a crap shoot. Everybody is different, but it will eventually self-destruct. I feel so bad for Michael Landon. I saw the horrific way my Dad died from it. It was so heartbreaking to see cuz he was never ill until he got this death sentence. 😢
Yo no lo veo así. Simplemente era su carácter; su espíritu. No veo sufrimiento en él (quiero decir que la enfermedad está ahí, y puedes notarlo en su aspecto, en lo que respecta a su cuerpo). Pero no da la impresión que sea un tipo que está haciendo un papel por obligación; pienso que es consciente de su situación. Sabe que no queda mucho tiempo, pero no tiene miedo.
The loss of Landon is hard to accept because he was so young, he was such a great person and actor. I watch him on Little House on the prairie his acting can't be more perfect. He also cared about the people that he worked with and most of all his family as everyone seemed so glad to be around him. He was a true television icon a one of a kind person that can't be replaced.
I was just a little girl when he passed. My mom passed down her love for him to me and yes ... he is still so missed! I was too young to know about him, but made sure I watched his shows and interviews. Goodness .. he was a rarity and beautiful soul/man.
If only more people in Hollywood had the integrity, humor, and class of Michael Landon. Truly a real Hollywood Icon star with message of how to be a "Class Act" along with a role model for future generations.
Got to meet him and all the Bonanza actors when back in the day they all were star guests of the Akron All American Soapbox Derby Parade downtown sitting on the backs of passing convertibles as confetti was floating by from the buildings on Main Street. It was exciting experience.
What a great personality. He's dying of cancer and is still smiling and laughing and getting what he can out of life. A true professional with a wonderful personality.
My grandma was a huge fan of his, and got to meet him when she was 75 during the run of "Highway to Heaven". He was so sweet to her. It was amazing. When she died a few years later, she was buried with a picture of the two of them together in her pocket. She absolutely insisted that we had to do that!
What a beautiful story .& thank-you so much for sharing your story & your dear grandmother’s experience meeting Michael Landon with us all! I need to add that your sweet grandmother insisting the photo of her & Michael Landon’s meeting, captured in a photo is what I would say “A TRUE HIGHWAY TO HEAVEN STORY!”❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕♥️💕❤️💕❤️💕❤️
I have prostate cancer, untreated for 15 years, and my Lord God is taking care of me just fine, as He loves His own, and that love us reciprocated in kind make no mistake.. The doctors told me that I had a 5 to 10 year life expectancy and like I said earlier, it's been 15 years so far.. All praise, power and glory be given to our Father God Yahweh..
First of all I’m a registered nurse of 38 years over 90% of all men have prostate cancer after their 80 years old you did the right thing not align them to cut on it I’ll that probably would’ve done is spread the cancer cells everywhere and also noticed at the end of your Post that you mentioned Yahweh. I also am my believer in Yahweh looks like this post of yours about a year old I hope you’re still doing well Yah bless!
@@cfaz6763 I'm doing well, thank you.. It's been 16 years now and my cancer is no more of a distraction than a mosquito bite.. lol.. Our Father's hand is good on me, and I thank you for asking.. Be well..
I can’t imagine that feeling.... my little boy died...33 years ago...I was in another world. God Bless all those who have had/have cancer...I pray you have a special sense of peace....
I was a kid when he passed away and loved watching him and the rest of the cast in The Little House on the Prarie. I just finished rewatching the whole 9 season series and will always remember the life lessons I learned and picked up watching him in the series. May God bless him and his family. RIP Michael Landon
@@marcelcovaci9922 Yes he does. He has always had great cheekbones but you can really see them here. I always see when people lose weight their faces first.
I’m from Afghanistan and when immigrated you’re Pakistan in 1986, the Pakistan national channel was showing his Highway to heaven, and I was watching it every episode. Michael Landon was charismatic. RIP brave man.
Michael talks about having 9 kids at the time. In 1967 he brought his family to Expo in Montreal. I was a host in the Ontario Pavilion on a day off, and I was ushering my sister around the fair. Cass had mobility problems. I had left her sitting in one of the fair wheelchairs while I went to run an errand, which took me a couple of minutes longer than I expected. When I came out, Cass was nowhere to be found & I panicked. So I'm searching for her and a fair-goer told me they thought they saw her with a family at a nearby fountain. (What?) Sure enough there she was - in the company of Michael Landon, his lovely wife and their 5 kids! He was smiling, gracious, and sorry for worrying me, but Cass was having a blast. He had been wheeling her around, thinking I had missplaced her. I'll always remember his kindness and that warm smile. His was a sad loss, and one of the first celebrities to talk about pancreatic cancer. It claimed our mother in 1991. Love seeing these old clips from The Tonight Show. Johnny was a regular in our home in the evening.
My mother met him when he and Cindy came into the gift shop where my mom worked at the time. I believe it was in 1984. My mother still talks about how wonderful he was to her, just a kind, gracious man.
@NeedsMoreTry I really loved the way Caroline would scold him whenever he lost his temper. I will never forget in the episode where they meet and adopt Albert, Charles has a horrible boss (Mr. Standish) and Caroline tells Charles: "People that take advantage of others are to be pitied, not hated". She was truly magnificent too.
Thanks ! .for all those.past time memories you , u tubers.brouht back to mind . Life back then people were more truth to one another even marriages were more likely stay together Find moms and pops stayed with each other for ever till death do you part .our marriages ' don't have that strong leak as our past M mother and father had . Bless all those husband and wifes that some people can hold it together how about us some singer said that in her song praise be ! If your marriage have that leak !
It’s his humor, my goodness...I’ve never seen anyone face death with this much grace and kindness. I only just learned of his death while binging LHOTP (I’m so obsessed now!) and to see him at such a vulnerable state be at peace, it’s inspiring. I don’t even know him and I miss him. I hope he is resting with the Lord ❤️
Hard to believe he died only two months after this show... He looked so alive and happy...Thats why you should live everyday like its your last because you can go at the drop of a hat.
That's true, I used to work with a woman who's husband died in his 50's. She got a call at work and was asked to go home. She got there and found out her husband was at the neighbors house visiting, was laughing about something, and fell over dead, just like that. Now that is the way to go, maybe not so soon, but I'll take it.
It was saddening to see him like that, Ms. Buchanan😣 I watched that episode of The Tonight Show. He was in really good spirits that night, so it less somber for me personally. I couldn't help but feel awful for his family, though, 😞ma'am
@@gee2541 if Im remembering correctly, I believe he actually passed away within 4 to 6 weeks later. I remember being shocked that he looked so well, on the show, and then was gone so soon. An amazing and incredible man. Miss him and his productions
I still remember the day they announced Michael Landon had pancreatic cancer. I followed the entire story. He was interviewed and vowed to fight it and win. Everyone was praying for a miracle. Then it was announced that he'd be making an appearance on Johnny Carson. We were all hoping that he'd tell us good news, that he was going to be okay, but sadly that wasn't the case. Up until that point of my life, I'd never seen someone who was dying act so bravely. He went out swinging that's for sure. I still watch Bonanza to this day and Little Joe Cartwright lives on forever.
*I met him briefly on Malibu beach in July '86 and had a short conversation with him, he appeared genuinely interested as I was from the UK, and said there was a new series being made that perhaps we would get in time - this turned out to be "Highway to Heaven" Had not heard a great deal of him before that. Sadly missed RIP Michael. - age 54 Far to soon.*
My dad was going through the same pancreatic cancer at the same time, Michael died a month before my dad, both deaths were devastating. It made me realize my dad would die too, my hope was gone when Mr.Landon Died. Rest In Peace Dad and Michael Landon 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Johnny was on vacation from the Tonight Show when Michael Landon died. At the end of the first show that he did when he came back, I remember that at the end of the show he memorialized Landon, as well as his son, who had just died in an automobile accident. I wondered how Johnny was going to handle it, and he did the show as normal, and waited until the end to say his piece about his late friend and son. It was a class act by Carson. Nobody moderated a talk show better.
Johnny Carson was a troubled soul. His 2nd wife said how threatening he was on their honeymoon. Perhaps he was a narcissist. I was not a fan of Carson nor of Landon he too was a troubled soul. I loved his LHOTP & Highway to Heaven, but just not him.
I saw this interview the night it happened and Michael Landon's appearance, attitude and energy level at the time convinced many of us who were watching that he still he still had quite a while left to live. If you'd have asked me at the time, I'd have told you I think he'd still be alive at least another year or even longer, which is why, even though he'd been so open about having cancer, myself and quite a lot of others were still somewhat surprised when he died less than 8 weeks later on July 1st 1991. Knowing more about cancer than I did then and realizing in hindsight how serious his diagnosis was, it now seems naïve that I could have been shocked by his death, but back then I thought if you looked and sounded "good" it meant it was early days in the fight and that you still had more time.
@@jiovannatowers1121 the whole series is on Netflix watch it again. I watched the show as a kid with my Mom. It was a blast to watch it again with Adult eyes.
Rip Michael landon. Little house on the prairie was and still is one of my favorite tv shows of all time. 100s of times better than the garbage reality shows on today. You are a legend.
I loved Michael Landon’s portrayal of Pa in little house on prairie, he was so handsome, masculine and strong, sweet, soft but firm with the kids and romantic with his wife , he had a twinkle in his eyes:)
@@lailav2229 He almost died earlier than that as well. He had a blood clot in one of his legs that almost got him 2 weeks after this. Fate really had it in for Michael!
I had heard he was doing alternative ( coffee enemas juicing vegetables etc) his Drs talked him out of it.😟.Like what better did they have to offer him...I'm not anti Dr they r gr8 for trauma, broken bones heart attacks ( to stabilize & can save ur life) ...he was gone in LESS than 2 months!!!
So he didn't consider chemotherapy at all? I understand his chances were practically nihil... so I comprehend his choice though and his disicion to rely on alternative therapy... but still... so soon. Too soon.
This video breaks my heart. Michael was dying, he knew it. But he kept his smile to the end. He was worried not about him but his children because the press comments about his health. Michael deserves be remembered and loved as the great human being he was
@Daysy Perez - and this is probably how most of us would like to go. Just keep smiling until the end, and at this point "worry" more about other people within our life, instead of our own. He was hell of an actor, and also a human being.
I adored Michael. They dont make Em like him anymore. It was impossible Not to like him. He had the most infectious laugh & smile! Down to Earth & the Real Deal. And ended up incredibly humble.
I remember meeting him when I used to crash a motel pool the cast would stay at when filming Little House on The Prairie in Northern California. He came out to the pool deck with that hair, huge Hollywood sunglasses and his killer smile. Here was a star, and yet he was friendly, funny and approachable to me, a 13 y.o. local small town kid. RIP Michael.
Unfortunately, many people are nice to others in public, but they badmouth them in private. Image is everything to them. When they feel they were wronged, they will look for revenge. No one is safe once it starts.
It's now 2024 as I came across this post and have started watching the pilot of Highway to Heaven... Just the music makes me nostalgic for a time in our lives when things back then just seemed better. The world seemed better than today's life. Makes me yearn for that time. I can't put my finger on it but my heart overflows with tears.🙏🏼
Everyday after school i used to watch little house on the prairie and wished a had a father like Charles in the series. Michael Landon was the greatest actor in the world according to me! Rest in peace..😔
It is demeaning and disgraceful to take holy things and treat them as common. For instance taking the Lord's Name in vain is an abomination whether you realize it or not. Likewise heaven needs to be used with the Bible's meaning. As I had said; it's trite to make comments such as he'll now be in heaven with Hoss, Hop Sing, Adam and Pa. Likewise when Franco Columbo died comments were made that he'll be lifting with the other deceased bodybuilders in glory. Most folks have no perception of how sinful their common expressions are. Now granted, MM didn't use the word 'heaven,' he said "He's now with...." That is usually meant as a reference to Heaven. I can't imagine he meant Hell. But Hell would be the probable destination of those who say inane things like MM did.
Tim Carr I’m sure that you’re sincere in your beliefs, but speaking as an ‘oldie’ who is now much closer to the end of my life than the beginning, I have met a lot of different kinds of people over the years, and I like to feel that if there is a God, that he is much kinder, more forgiving and less judgemental than some of those “‘believers’ who follow him.
I love the standing ovation at the beginning. Michael was only 54 when he passed, and that was less than two months after this show aired. RIP Little Joe!
I really do believe Michael Landon and Patrick Swayze were the last of the truly strong male actors we had to display quiet, wholesome masculine strength on television. My parents had John Wayne and then there was a void to fill and they did a damn fine job filling it. Television hasn’t really been the same since their untimely deaths due to the same illness. RIP Michael and Patrick 💕
@@BMG19FUNNYDIE he was a heavy drinker too to cope with the work load, also all his divorces and infidelities, children . you bet, also lack of propee rest, diet, also personal traumas within himself created the illness.

Thanks for wonderful programs like 'Highway to heaven'. I started watching it again after being diagnosed with Terminal brain tumour. Michael Landon inspired me with his bravery on this Johnny Carson epispde.
I don't even know who Michael Landon was, but judging by this appearance, we lost an amazing person full of dignity and courage. What charisma and sense of humor. I'm grateful I got to watch this.
Always admired Michael Landon. Highway to Heaven was such an underrated show that was so inspiring and wholesome. Michael just appears to be such a genuinely generous and good spirited person. Rip Michael.
"He has continued to face this battle with humor and honesty and a personal sense of dignity that characterizes a man." Well said, and sadly, getting rarer all the time.
Sadly that is so true. Imagine how this interview would have been interpreted by such a unfortunately large number of people especially on Twitter today! For example the vile comments like we have seen recently about the deaths of Don Imus & Kobe Bryant and Rush Limbaugh’s cancer diagnosis, then you would have those criticising Johnny for being sexist & misogynistic for using the word “man” in the monologue as if those qualities can only be perscibed to men! It’s a sad sad time indeed
I watched this live at the time. He was so funny the night. It gave everyone hope that he would make it. I think he knew his days were numbered. He died with his family surrounding him.
@tomf429: You said it exactly like I remember when my siblings and parents were watching that show. I remember feeling hope that he was going to pull through - we all did - and then he didn’t. It was so sad. Can still clearly remember that feeling when it was announced that he died and clearly remember watching this last show with him on Johnny Carson.
@@jamestropicals8262 Yep. I remember. He always went out of his way to try to bring awareness to pancreatic cancer. Very good man.. And Gorgeous!!! LORD HE WAS FINE!!! 😍
Michael Landon had successful TV series in each of three different decades: Bonanza during the 60s, Little House On The Prairie during the 70s and Highway to Heaven during the 80s. One of the most successful actors in television history and one of the nicest guys you'd ever want to meet. It's horrible that his life had to end like this
Michael Landon had a phenomenal career, hugely talented. It's a shame he passed so young but like someone said he sure packed a ton into those 54 years.
I was 12 when he passed and growing up without a father and being so enamored with Little House and Highway to Heaven it felt like my dad died. It changed me forever. I think of him often. It's weird but it's the truth. I can't help but believe God sent him for me and others.
When I was a kid, I idolized Landon as Little Joe on Bonanza. I watched his television shows Highway To Heaven and Little House On The Prairie. He always brought a wholesomeness and noble moral to television. He passed from us way too young. And in 2020 I still miss him.
@@abriellehorvath3195 yeah, Michael went quickly. If you didn't know his wife & children were at his side at his home when he took the Highway to Heaven.
@Michael Davis what's the weather like on Bizzaro Earth? I see they don't have a cure for TDS there either. Enjoy Trump being your president for years to come.
Michael Landon was a very few Hollywood celebrities that both Liberals and Conservatives admired and respected!! He was truly a decent human being and an amazing actor!! We need more people like him than ever especially in the D.C!!
I grew up in the 80's watching him on Highway to Heaven. I know people remember him much farther back than that, but I loved that show. It was my mom's favorite show too, rest her soul. What a wonderful soul and human being Michael Landon was. I remember when he passed away, was when I was on summer vacation from school... I cried. What a true angel.
He was only 54 when he passed away. It's amazing how much life he squeezed into 54 years. RIP. He is an American Icon.
He is a Zionist icon.
He must have been VERY young when he did that werewolf movie.
@Conway Twitter Thanks for your reply to that comment. That person was right. Michael Landon did squeeze alot I to 54 years.

I see why Johnny loved Landon and not many others. You could tell Michael was incredibly genuine, and there is never enough of that in Hollywood
Hollywood has always been a land of make-believe. Many celebrities present themselves one way, but they are actually another. Many ordinary people are very two-faced as well. Politics don't even matter.

Who didn't love LHOTP. But alas Landon was a strange man. Apparently he had a cruel streak. Melissa Sue (Mary) said that as did Karen Grassle (Caroline). Landon reduced Karen's salary & scenes in season 2 & onwards
@@susanford2388 research the character that played Mary and you will find that she wasn't liked by many of the staff. She was known for being snooty and very uptight. Karen, also complained about her character as Caroline because she felt like she was dominated over Charles. She is like your typical Hollywood celebrity with their woman need to be treated equal bullshit. Well your playing the role of a pioneers wife. In those days, you worked from home and the man of the house was in control and had more say.
So i can't blame him for not being as nice to the complainers. He was noted as being a man that worked hard and expected the staff to work just as hard. Everyone else that was a part of that show had amazing thing's to say about him. But just like any Hollywood celebrity, they are all bought and paid for by the devil.
We don't watch much tv in this house. We do however watch reruns of LHOTP and The Walton's A LOT!
@@minnamae25 Thank you for your reply but I do not share your bitter words.
@@minnamae25 well said.
I grew up watching re-runs of Little House and Bonanza. His role as Charles Ingalls had such an impact on me. My father was abusive and abandoned my sister and me when we were young. Mr. Ingalls was the loving, caring father I wanted in my life. There's so much nostalgia when I watch Mr. Landon in anything. Pa was and always will be my dad too lol I'm sure others can relate to that ❤
When Michael Landon was a boy he had a very abusive mother. it is interesting that when he grew older he adopted quite a few children, all of which eventually went to college.
Awww....bless your heart. I know the feeling...he sure gave stability if you didn't have it. 💗
Hear, hear!
true pa ingalls is a classic
Yes Mr Ingalls was my dad too.. ❤️
Who is still celebrating this genius in 2024!
Me❤
Watch Little house otP each day.
@@Bobbel888 Me too. Watching Season 5 now.
Always!!!!
I am
He was one of the best actors in history. I love Bonanza, Little House on the Prairie and Highway to Heaven. He is missed.
Have you ever seen. I was a teenage werewolf? If you haven't, I recommend it. He was so young
Saw them all too, fabulous TV
I loved highway to heaven. In the early 90s I worked in a crazy bar while going to college. Just mayhem every fri and sat. Coconuts nite club in Burnaby. It was brutal. I would come home at 4am and unwind with a 7-11 burrito and watch Michael Landon and victor french on highway to heaven.
Indeed
7 weeks later he passed away. Can you imagine that? He looks so healthy. And man has he courage and humor. My deepest respect! Great interview.
They didn't have the drugs we have today. Pancreatic cancer killed really quick then !
@@robertgsmith5761 really? It still does! It's one of the most fatal
Robert Smith It still does. And the drugs still kill people. They tried to kill a friend of mine. They gave him drugs that made him sick. He still died of pancreatic cancer. Not only that They murdered my Mother!!
Sick thing is. Government know there’s a cure for cancer. Google ‘Cancer Act 1939.’
Michael knew how to heal his body back then. It’s known that Dandelion milk juice kills cancer. And high vitamin C intravenous too. It’s a pity they didn’t have the internet back then. Such a brave man.
I have “chronic” pancreatitis. I am taking Creon for it with every meal including snacks. I have some episodes of left upper pain right under my rib cage where the stomach is. The pancreas is in deeper. I guess my fate is sealed cuz my Dad died at 68 y.o. from Pancreatic cancer. He was so ill. He died in 3 months from diagnosis. I bet he had the chronic form like I have, but he never complained of pain. I worry that the chronic pancreatitis I have will turn into cancer as well🥺It is a risk factor for it. All in all, the chronic form is a progressive destruction of the pancreas. How long I live until it kills me is a crap shoot. Everybody is different, but it will eventually self-destruct. I feel so bad for Michael Landon. I saw the horrific way my Dad died from it. It was so heartbreaking to see cuz he was never ill until he got this death sentence. 😢
Sharp as a tack, incredible strength and humour to the end, a true gentleman and inspiration to us all❤️
A total legend
I know that he is a total inspiration to anyone he is so caring resting peace micheal .

I can't imagine the face he had to put on during this interview. Strong man. Great actor.
Yo no lo veo así.
Simplemente era su carácter; su espíritu.
No veo sufrimiento en él (quiero decir que la enfermedad está ahí, y puedes notarlo en su aspecto, en lo que respecta a su cuerpo). Pero no da la impresión que sea un tipo que está haciendo un papel por obligación; pienso que es consciente de su situación. Sabe que no queda mucho tiempo, pero no tiene miedo.
Still looked good.
Kids today will never know how great we had it.

@psychedelic toaster Damn.....if I only had the chance.
The loss of Landon is hard to accept because he was so young, he was such a great person and actor. I watch him on Little House on the prairie his acting can't be more perfect. He also cared about the people that he worked with and most of all his family as everyone seemed so glad to be around him. He was a true television icon a one of a kind person that can't be replaced.
almost 30 years later and I still mourn his loss - RIP Pa
I was just a little girl when he passed. My mom passed down her love for him to me and yes ... he is still so missed! I was too young to know about him, but made sure I watched his shows and interviews. Goodness .. he was a rarity and beautiful soul/man.
Wow, I can’t believe it’s been that long already.
Rest in peace worlds most wonderful person MICHAEL LANDON!

we do miss Michael Landon so much. What a brave man he was to the end. A great American and a great actor. Nearly 30 years since the world lost him.
Michael. “You ere So Very Missed in the Whole World Today ,Yesterday and Always”. ♥️
If only more people in Hollywood had the integrity, humor, and class of Michael Landon. Truly a real Hollywood Icon star with message of how to be a "Class Act" along with a role model for future generations.
🙏❤
Got to meet him and all the Bonanza actors when back in the day they all were star guests of the Akron All American Soapbox Derby Parade downtown sitting on the backs of passing convertibles as confetti was floating by from the buildings on Main Street. It was exciting experience.
What a great personality. He's dying of cancer and is still smiling and laughing and getting what he can out of life. A true professional with a wonderful personality.
My grandma was a huge fan of his, and got to meet him when she was 75 during the run of "Highway to Heaven". He was so sweet to her. It was amazing. When she died a few years later, she was buried with a picture of the two of them together in her pocket. She absolutely insisted that we had to do that!
Amazing story!
Sweet! My mom had her picture taken with Tony Orlando in Branson . We did the same thing. Buried her with that picture because she was so proud of it.
Yes amazing story!
My favorite to Highway to Heaven
What a beautiful story .& thank-you so much for sharing your story & your dear grandmother’s experience meeting Michael Landon with us all!

I have prostate cancer, untreated for 15 years, and my Lord God is taking care of me just fine, as He loves His own, and that love us reciprocated in kind make no mistake..

I was a kid when he passed away and loved watching him and the rest of the cast in The Little House on the Prarie. I just finished rewatching the whole 9 season series and will always remember the life lessons I learned and picked up watching him in the series. May God bless him and his family. RIP Michael Landon
He is thin here. Still handsome, great hair and his attitude and humor are top shelf. A class act and truly missed.
He does look thin
@@marcelcovaci9922 Yes he does. He has always had great cheekbones but you can really see them here. I always see when people lose weight their faces first.
He was gone 53 days after this.
I’m from Afghanistan and when immigrated you’re Pakistan in 1986, the Pakistan national channel was showing his Highway to heaven, and I was watching it every episode. Michael Landon was charismatic. RIP brave man.
That's cool. I loved that show too.
Michael talks about having 9 kids at the time. In 1967 he brought his family to Expo in Montreal. I was a host in the Ontario Pavilion on a day off, and I was ushering my sister around the fair. Cass had mobility problems. I had left her sitting in one of the fair wheelchairs while I went to run an errand, which took me a couple of minutes longer than I expected. When I came out, Cass was nowhere to be found & I panicked. So I'm searching for her and a fair-goer told me they thought they saw her with a family at a nearby fountain. (What?)
Sure enough there she was - in the company of Michael Landon, his lovely wife and their 5 kids! He was smiling, gracious, and sorry for worrying me, but Cass was having a blast. He had been wheeling her around, thinking I had missplaced her.
I'll always remember his kindness and that warm smile. His was a sad loss, and one of the first celebrities to talk about pancreatic cancer. It claimed our mother in 1991.
Love seeing these old clips from The Tonight Show. Johnny was a regular in our home in the evening.
He was a beautiful soul
❤️❤️❤️❤️
My mother met him when he and Cindy came into the gift shop where my mom worked at the time. I believe it was in 1984. My mother still talks about how wonderful he was to her, just a kind, gracious man.
Yeah, that's the kind of man he was!❤
He’s sense of humor during his hard time is incredible .
Hello Carolina, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus??
Hello Carolina, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus??
and what great hair he had !
Had a great sense of humor even with everything he was going through
What a class act... his bravery and grace is palpable.
Grace, ..what an awesome word, ...and trait. It is a dying condition!
He was an actor he knew how to play
Michael Landon is a legend. His portrayel of Charles Ingalls in the Little House series is an immortal classic.
Wish we could all go back to those days. Life was so much simpler it seemed
@@EFFTRUDEAU I believe today Greenland has a very similar environment, that has not been corrupted by corporate greed.
@NeedsMoreTry I really loved the way Caroline would scold him whenever he lost his temper. I will never forget in the episode where they meet and adopt Albert, Charles has a horrible boss (Mr. Standish) and Caroline tells Charles: "People that take advantage of others are to be pitied, not hated". She was truly magnificent too.
Yes...but to me he will always be Little Joe
LOL! Pure corny crap that show was! Yuck
Very touching that Michael felt safe enough with Johnny like this... Class acts, both of them...
He was one FINE man
And he stuck it to the tabloids good for Michael Landon. RIP Mr.Landon
And both Scorpios RIP
Tomorrow will be 30 years since he passed,1st July,such a good person.
And great artist! I'm a Michael Landon's fan!
30 years, OMG.
Thanks ! .for all those.past time memories you , u tubers.brouht back to mind . Life back then people were more truth to one another even marriages were more likely stay together

He is really an angel in heaven now.
Highway to Heaven💙
I love Michael Landon, but he's not an angel. That's a nice thought, but humans don't turn into angels.
True! 🙏☁️💙
It’s his humor, my goodness...I’ve never seen anyone face death with this much grace and kindness. I only just learned of his death while binging LHOTP (I’m so obsessed now!) and to see him at such a vulnerable state be at peace, it’s inspiring. I don’t even know him and I miss him. I hope he is resting with the Lord ❤️
Hard to believe he died only two months after this show... He looked so alive and happy...Thats why you should live everyday like its your last because you can go at the drop of a hat.
That's true, I used to work with a woman who's husband died in his 50's. She got a call at work and was asked to go home. She got there and found out her husband was at the neighbors house visiting, was laughing about something, and fell over dead, just like that. Now that is the way to go, maybe not so soon, but I'll take it.
I didnt know that.. 2 months after thats sucks :/
Sad and brave . ❤️
You are absolutly right!
Jeffrey Quinn They say live every day but they don’t say what to do.
You can see & tell he was very ill; however, I commended him for humor in one of his most darkest moments of his life. Well done, Mr. Landon.
It was saddening to see him like that, Ms. Buchanan😣 I watched that episode of The Tonight Show. He was in really good spirits that night, so it less somber for me personally. I couldn't help but feel awful for his family, though, 😞ma'am
He doesn't look very ill here. He looks average for age 54, though with great hair.
He actually looks pretty good
@@gee2541 if Im remembering correctly, I believe he actually passed away within 4 to 6 weeks later. I remember being shocked that he looked so well, on the show, and then was gone so soon. An amazing and incredible man. Miss him and his productions
Please explain how you can see & tell he was Ill hear?
No standing ovation is more perfect....the man made amazing television, family oriented and he will live forever in our hearts
All I have ever heard is nice things about him. And he was so handsome.
I guess you never read up what his first wife and second wife had to say about him.
Little House on the Prairie is my favorite show ❤
Yes he was handsome - especially as little Joe on Bonanza.
No he was a complicated workaholic. He was however kind and generous to his cast/crew who were loyal to him.
Johnny Carson was a gentleman , “un señor “ as we say in Spanish
We’re all just passing through this life! Let’s make it count!

@tinwoods if it makes you happy its not a waste..
PREACH my Brother 👏🛐👏
Amen
I still remember the day they announced Michael Landon had pancreatic cancer. I followed the entire story. He was interviewed and vowed to fight it and win. Everyone was praying for a miracle. Then it was announced that he'd be making an appearance on Johnny Carson. We were all hoping that he'd tell us good news, that he was going to be okay, but sadly that wasn't the case. Up until that point of my life, I'd never seen someone who was dying act so bravely. He went out swinging that's for sure. I still watch Bonanza to this day and Little Joe Cartwright lives on forever.
His hair is legendary.
and so is his laugh. I loved this day when I was 7 years old. My first live.
I meant loved this guy when I was 7. My mamas boy friend use to tease me about him
Yes it was and so was p swayze's hair
I think Carsons hair is rather unimpressive actually.
Yes and John Stamos
*I met him briefly on Malibu beach in July '86 and had a short conversation with him, he appeared genuinely interested as I was from the UK, and said there was a new series being made that perhaps we would get in time - this turned out to be "Highway to Heaven" Had not heard a great deal of him before that. Sadly missed RIP Michael. - age 54 Far to soon.*
Rest in peace, Mr. Landon. You are truly missed. Thank you for sharing your talents with the world.
A lot of courage in this man. RIP Michael
I so admire his courage and humor. What a wonderful attitude to have. He did have gorgeous hair! 🙏🏻
❤ his hair
And it got browner with age. It was grey the previous time he was on
My dad was going through the same pancreatic cancer at the same time, Michael died a month before my dad, both deaths were devastating. It made me realize my dad would die too, my hope was gone when Mr.Landon Died. Rest In Peace Dad and Michael Landon 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Wow didn’t realise such a funny guy always touching performances on film

Johnny was on vacation from the Tonight Show when Michael Landon died. At the end of the first show that he did when he came back, I remember that at the end of the show he memorialized Landon, as well as his son, who had just died in an automobile accident. I wondered how Johnny was going to handle it, and he did the show as normal, and waited until the end to say his piece about his late friend and son. It was a class act by Carson. Nobody moderated a talk show better.
Amen brother
@@davidcastelli7893 bbmn
Johnny Carson was a troubled soul. His 2nd wife said how threatening he was on their honeymoon. Perhaps he was a narcissist. I was not a fan of Carson nor of Landon he too was a troubled soul. I loved his LHOTP & Highway to Heaven, but just not him.
The very best there was.No one even comes close to Johnny Carson.
@@susanford2388 You are correct, they were both full of themselves, but in Hollywood, it's all about the ego.
I saw this interview the night it happened and Michael Landon's appearance, attitude and energy level at the time convinced many of us who were watching that he still he still had quite a while left to live. If you'd have asked me at the time, I'd have told you I think he'd still be alive at least another year or even longer, which is why, even though he'd been so open about having cancer, myself and quite a lot of others were still somewhat surprised when he died less than 8 weeks later on July 1st 1991. Knowing more about cancer than I did then and realizing in hindsight how serious his diagnosis was, it now seems naïve that I could have been shocked by his death, but back then I thought if you looked and sounded "good" it meant it was early days in the fight and that you still had more time.
It was no accident one of his most iconic roles was an “angel on Earth.”
RIP “Mr Ingalls”

You and 10 billion other people also...
He died 2 months after this. Hard to believe. He looks so strong.
Wth? 2months after? Obviously he had lost weight, but he looked awesome to be frank ... 😔
@@lailav2229 He almost died earlier than that as well. He had a blood clot in one of his legs that almost got him 2 weeks after this.
Fate really had it in for Michael!
I had heard he was doing alternative ( coffee enemas juicing vegetables etc) his Drs talked him out of it.😟.Like what better did they have to offer him...I'm not anti Dr they r gr8 for trauma, broken bones heart attacks ( to stabilize & can save ur life) ...he was gone in LESS than 2 months!!!
Mercifully he didn’t have to suffer and linger for months on end- or for years!
So he didn't consider chemotherapy at all? I understand his chances were practically nihil... so I comprehend his choice though and his disicion to rely on alternative therapy... but still... so soon. Too soon.
This video breaks my heart. Michael was dying, he knew it. But he kept his smile to the end. He was worried not about him but his children because the press comments about his health. Michael deserves be remembered and loved as the great human being he was
@Daysy Perez - and this is probably how most of us would like to go.
Just keep smiling until the end, and at this point "worry" more about other people within our life, instead of our own.

I remember meeting him when I used to crash a motel pool the cast would stay at when filming Little House on The Prairie in Northern California.

MM, I resent it when God's Word is demeaned. You said trite things that are disgraceful.
It is demeaning and disgraceful to take holy things and treat them as common. For instance taking the Lord's Name in vain is an abomination whether you realize it or not. Likewise heaven needs to be used with the Bible's meaning. As I had said; it's trite to make comments such as he'll now be in heaven with Hoss, Hop Sing, Adam and Pa. Likewise when Franco Columbo died comments were made that he'll be lifting with the other deceased bodybuilders in glory. Most folks have no perception of how sinful their common expressions are. Now granted, MM didn't use the word 'heaven,' he said "He's now with...." That is usually meant as a reference to Heaven. I can't imagine he meant Hell. But Hell would be the probable destination of those who say inane things like MM did.

Tim Carr please you self righteous moron
Tim Carr I’m sure that you’re sincere in your beliefs, but speaking as an ‘oldie’ who is now much closer to the end of my life than the beginning, I have met a lot of different kinds of people over the years, and I like to feel that if there is a God, that he is much kinder, more forgiving and less judgemental than some of those “‘believers’ who follow him.
I love the standing ovation at the beginning. Michael was only 54 when he passed, and that was less than two months after this show aired.
RIP Little Joe!
I really do believe Michael Landon and Patrick Swayze were the last of the truly strong male actors we had to display quiet, wholesome masculine strength on television.

"He has continued to face this battle with humor and honesty and a personal sense of dignity that characterizes a man." Well said, and sadly, getting rarer all the time.
Sadly that is so true.
Imagine how this interview would have been interpreted by such a unfortunately large number of people especially on Twitter today! For example the vile comments like we have seen recently about the deaths of Don Imus & Kobe Bryant and Rush Limbaugh’s cancer diagnosis, then you would have those criticising Johnny for being sexist & misogynistic for using the word “man” in the monologue as if those qualities can only be perscibed to men!

@@josephr9930 Sure.
Also Johnny Carson, those days was real entertainment, loved your show as well R.I.P.
Michael Langdon was such a fantastic man and incredible human being. Too bad this level of humanity is totally lost ons today's Hollywood
Big time. Hollywood today is nothing but corruption, lies, cheats, & dirty bastards.
Leon Ehlers tell time his wife and kids he dumped.
Solo Nepeon Landon lied and cheated to his wife... and then cut his first children out of his life. He was a dirty dog who karma caught up with .
@@dougl945 Really? I didn't know all this. Is there a article out there that states all this?
@@dougl945 yes, I recall devastating information that can fro his children after his death.
My brother passed away with panoramic cancer god bless Michael I always loved you 💔 ❤
Hello Claire, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus??
I watched this live at the time. He was so funny the night. It gave everyone hope that he would make it. I think he knew his days were numbered. He died with his family surrounding him.
@tomf429: You said it exactly like I remember when my siblings and parents were watching that show. I remember feeling hope that he was going to pull through - we all did - and then he didn’t. It was so sad. Can still clearly remember that feeling when it was announced that he died and clearly remember watching this last show with him on Johnny Carson.
I remember when he passed away. My step dad had just died and i cried my eyes out. I'll always love Michael.. 💔
He was only 54 he died from pancreatic cancer... 💔
@@jamestropicals8262 Yep. I remember. He always went out of his way to try to bring awareness to pancreatic cancer. Very good man.. And Gorgeous!!! LORD HE WAS FINE!!! 😍
@@amywhite9972 My cousin has cancer
By this stage two legends of the entertainment industry. It’s so sad these guys are no longer with us.
people get old and die. it happens
Michael was such a nice man. He used to hire our scout group to be extras for Little House when we were young.
Michael Landon had successful TV series in each of three different decades: Bonanza during the 60s, Little House On The Prairie during the 70s and Highway to Heaven during the 80s. One of the most successful actors in television history and one of the nicest guys you'd ever want to meet. It's horrible that his life had to end like this
Michael Landon had a phenomenal career, hugely talented. It's a shame he passed so young but like someone said he sure packed a ton into those 54 years.
I agree whole heartedly. Can you imagine the wonderful shows he would have created had he lived into his seventies or eighties?
Did Michael ever make me laugh. Always loved him both as Little Joe and Pa. This brought up some good memories.
Your right he didn't make you laugh but you liked him alot.
I was 12 when he passed and growing up without a father and being so enamored with Little House and Highway to Heaven it felt like my dad died. It changed me forever. I think of him often. It's weird but it's the truth. I can't help but believe God sent him for me and others.
I've been binging on Little House in quarantine. What an amazing guy.
Love this guy so much,wish I could of met what all man should be like,a real sweetheart,🤗💜😇😕😢💯💯💕💕💕
Mhmm. Me too.
Watch Bonanza too.
You and 10 billion other people also...
@@buildmorefarms1007 overkill on your comment bro
I loved Michael Landon's laugh. So honest and genuine.❤
Despite what he's going through, he still had a brave face.
When I was a kid, I idolized Landon as Little Joe on Bonanza. I watched his television shows Highway To Heaven and Little House On The Prairie. He always brought a wholesomeness and noble moral to television. He passed from us way too young. And in 2020 I still miss him.
What year was this interview?
@@abriellehorvath3195 1991.Landon died in July. His appearance was probably May or June.
Bill Lozier wow I didn’t realize how short his illness was and how close to death he was in this interview. 😪
@@abriellehorvath3195 yeah, Michael went quickly. If you didn't know his wife & children were at his side at his home when he took the Highway to Heaven.
Bill Lozier 😪
When Hollywood actors had class
This.
Michael Davis that’s true, and liberals are the experts in creating class, particularly a large, dependent lower class.
Yes
@Michael Davis what's the weather like on Bizzaro Earth? I see they don't have a cure for TDS there either. Enjoy Trump being your president for years to come.
@@tallfiddler Let's not forget the Epstein class
Michael Landon was a very few Hollywood celebrities that both
Liberals and Conservatives admired and respected!! He was truly
a decent human being and an amazing actor!! We need more people
like him than ever especially in the D.C!!
I grew up in the 80's watching him on Highway to Heaven. I know people remember him much farther back than that, but I loved that show. It was my mom's favorite show too, rest her soul. What a wonderful soul and human being Michael Landon was. I remember when he passed away, was when I was on summer vacation from school... I cried. What a true angel.
