  • On February 3, 1981, Rodney Dangerfield, the king of one-liners, stopped by the Tonight Show to share some laughs with Johnny Carson, the king of late night.
    1:32 “I got hit by a car. I told the guy, ‘Are you blind?’ He said, ‘I hit you, didn’t I?’”
    2:17 “What a childhood I had. My mother never breastfed me. She always had a headache.”
    4:50 “I’m not sexy at all. I went to the sperm bank. They used my sperm to get a woman pregnant. They had to get her drunk first.”
    6:25 “I have no sex life. The only sex I have is when my doctor tells me to cough.”

    Basically Rodney does a killer stand up monologue and then instead of a mindless interview he gives a killer sitting down monologue. This man Dangerfield was peerless.

      Exactly. I read an interview w/ Rodney where he talked about rehearsing every second of these appearances. He prepared for weeks as he understood the impact that these had on his career. There's one Carson clip on RUclips where he kind of bombed. It turns out a studio had pushed him to make an unscheduled visit to push a movie and he was obviously very uncomfortable.

      Hopefully you're not referring to Johnny's reaction when Rodney asks him... "Well, what do you want to do now?" Because that was completely genuine. Sure - Johnny and Rodney had a routine set in advance, but that was pure improv and genuine laughter from Carson! One of my all time favorites.

      @ekimshield Listen up. Where did you get your diploma? In the University for the mentally challenged? All I said was get lost you twerp.
      I'm laughing at your diagnosis. My sister is a much better psychiatrist as you will ever be and she diagnosed me good mental health. So why don't you take your wannabe diagnosis and shove it where the son don't shine!

      Must be very sad to be you!

    His jokes are more timeless than music. I love the crowd interaction with Rodney. As soon as he walked passed those curtains you knew he would work the crowd like a boss, and commandeer the show. Straight up showstopper and the best of all time. Doesn't even cuss in his acts...crazy!

    One of my favorite things is to watch Johnny throw lines to Rodney . Johnny was a fine comedian but way under rated as a straight man! (Not an easy job!!)

    Rodney Dangerfield was a little before my time, but I remember him growing up. Just started watching some of his stuff on RUclips and I think he is HILARIOUS. Clean comedy is kind of a lost art nowadays. Rodney was a master of it. I got much respect for him (R.I.P.).

    • @jpwjr1199
      @jpwjr1199 4 года назад +9

      True, but even more importantly, as polished a host as he was, there was an authenticity in his support for many of the celebrities he had on then that just isn't present in the hosts of that time slot on NBC since. Carson admiring his work by simply taking a breath and simply saying that Rodney's funny before cutting to the sponsors keeps the stage actors human for the audience. That connection is what keeps folks wanting to watch. Conan could have had that had he been given a real chance. Personally, with all the channels now, as well as computers/internet, and with TV going the way of AM radio in the 1970's and 80's, NBC should just scrap Tonight, move on and do something different.

    Great stuff! Rodney D did a 3rd variant on the breast-feeding joke. In other clips he said his mother never breast-fed him because she just liked him as a friend or that she breast-fed him with a straw. This time his mother wouldn't breast-feed him because she had a headache. The fat girl with an echo in her belly button was the best gag of many here.
