I grew up with the Smothers... they were just, fantastic. They took chances, stood by their principals, and kicked butt. You'll be missed Tommy. Hang in there Dickie
At a time when we really needed our court jesters, there was the Smothers Bothers. The fact that they got the plug pulled is proof of how good they were at their jobs. RIP Tom.
I also grew up with the Smothers Brothers. The way the two of them played off one another was hysterical and truly comedic genius. The world lost half of that genius, leaving us poorer for the loss. God bless the Smothers family in their time of mourning.
I remember watching The Smothers Brothers as a young girl with my family. Those were great times and we never missed a show. Thanks for the laughs Tommy, and Rest In Blessed Peace!
Onstage, Tom was the goofball, Dick was the straight man. Offstage, Dick was the party guy. Offstage, Tom ran the show, by all accounts efficiently and professionally.
As a native San Franciscan, the Smothers Brothers were local heroes virtually all of my life. Wonderful, talented men and outspoken humanitarians who used their voices to improve the world world, as well as entertain us. Dick and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Tom was so special. Rest in peace, dear Tommy.
My god. Slowly my childhood is disappearing. Was lucky enough to see them perform live and they never lost a step. Thank you Tommy for all the memories. 🥰
In 4th grade, my best friend and I were so enamored with the Smothers Brothers comedy albums, that we began doing impersonations of them for our friends at school (minus the guitar and bass). I guess we got pretty good at it since by 6th grade we put together a half-hour show for an all-school assembly at Avalon Elementary School, Catalina Island, CA. Rest in Peace, Tommy Smothers.
I have lived in LA since my family moved from Detroit in 1962. I remember the seaplanes leaving Long Beach harbor to fly to Catalina. What was it like living on the island back then? I am interested in looking at condos there. I know it's more developed and different (hopefully not the Wrigley Mansion).
The whole school! A couple of celebrities. I could imagine Tommy and Dicky(ie) sitting in a back corner during your show, with grins and a few elbows during your best material. They certainly seemed like people people.
The Smothers Brothers were my first introduction to the hilarity that incandescent rage at the injustices of the world can produce. I hope Tommy left knowing he'd made the world a better place.
They pushed limits, stood by their convictions and exposed us to truth. They knew the consequences and still did what their hearts told them. They made us laugh, sing and enjoy life for a while.
A truer comment was never spoken. I often watch old Carlin vids and marvel at his genius. The Smothers Brothers are in that same level of genius. RIP Tommy. Condolences to your entire family.
My family never missed a show, my dad would laugh till he cried, literally. I later realized how much "good trouble" they got in politically, and appreciate them for it. Singing now with God's choir, you are blessed Tom♥️
Such a great loss. It isn't often that I'm deeply saddened when a celebrity passes away but I gotta say this one hurts to the core. RIP, Tommy. You'll be DEEPLY missed.
@@megchow8245No. I do not miss that time period, at all. However, I do miss the great men I was lucky enough to see, on the TV. This man is among the Greatest.
Yeah ...this brought tears to my eyes . They were so genuine . And hilarious . The weaving of music and comedy is not something that is heard today . R.I.P Tom Smothers .
I loved the Smothers Brothers. It is because of Tommy and how outspoken he was about things he was passionate about to make the world better. Prayers to you Dick and rip Tommy
Two of the finest funny guys I've ever watched. I looked forward to seeing them on TV in the 60s. I was so upset when they got cancelled. I've met them twice at concerts and they both signed my record albums. RIP Tommy.
Very sad to learn of Tommy's passing, RIP Tommy Smothers. You and your brother were favorites in our home; your humor and humanitarian causes and music and harmonies were some of the best of all time. Thank you.
You guys were very much a part of my life, and when I was a soldier you fought for peace in Vietnam. Didnt know you lost your father in the war, till today and yet it is all history now Tommy, your passing was like losing a dear friend.
As a musician I worked their road show a few times and they were always kind and gracious to the band. Loved them since I was a kid. Tommy was a born comedian.
I’m almost in tears. I’m 77 and Tommy and Dick have been there for most of them. I can’t imagine a world without either and now Tommy’s gone. Thank you both for all the joy and honesty you brought us. Rest in heaven Tommy. ❤️

Tom Smothers was my humor mentor when I was growing up. One of the most underrated comedic talents and had deep commitment to ethical principles. He will be remembered and missed. RIP
So sorry for your loss Dick, Thank you for posting this or allowing it to be posted, a wonderful tribute to a gifted person that we were lucky to witness through out his life. RIP Tommy, we know you are sailing away
@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist.Does this mean the Christians need to repent for being incredibly un-Christ-like? Why are Christians so hypocritical, I don't get it. It's like they want to belong to the club, but don't want to be like Christ, at all. It is better for a person to be good and kind to others, than to belong to some hypocrisy club. I remember things Tom used to say about hypocrites....
I just love these guys. There was a natural ebb and flow with their humor. Only 2 brothers could have such ease in their performance. I will miss you Tom!
Hooo boy! What a sad day! I started following the Brothers Smothers as a 7 year old child in 1965 and couldn't figure out why they were fired in 1969 They brought so much laughter to so many I will always love you You will always have a place in my heart
I remember when they were having trouble with CBS-TV, and Tom said on stage.....C stands for censorship, and everybody knows what BS stands for. The Smothers Brothers were the real deal.
@@KevinSmith-yh6tl I don't remember if it was an exact thing they said, or if was the fact they were always pushing the envelope on politics, sex, the war, etc. It was the end of the 60's and it was a fun time.
RIP Tommy, and sincere condolences to Dickie, the family and friends. Two very funny, principled men. I was at the late end of the boomers, but the Smothers Brothers were a part of our childhood. A somewhat simpler world. You couldn’t isolate yourself on a phone or pad - you had to sit in front of a TV with your family, if you wanted to be entertained. And heaven knows the Smothers were VERY entertaining, and made an indelible mark on their industry.
So grateful to have been old enough to remember watching with my family. But, it took many years before the depth of their humor and underlying commentary hit and it ultimately helped me to question everything. RIP Tom - you changed so much in this world for the better.
Tom had such a gift for making us laugh. He was so cute, the way he played the “dumb”, injured, but funny soul opposite his serious brother. I just loved their show when I was a kid. Hated when it was canceled. I will always remember them both with love. RIP, Tommy! Thanks for the memories!
This show was so inspirational to who I am as an older woman now. Even as an adolescent I resonated with their humor, their activism, their tenacity. RIP dear Tommy.❤
Funny and always relevant, Tommy and Dicky Smothers. Very saddened and the world will never be the same again without Tom Smothers' presence. I'll miss you and your light-hearted banter and optimistic comedy style.
Like most of us, I grew up with The Smothers Brothers. We had all their albums. My favorite song was The Slithery Dee. My Mom used to sing it. I love that Tommy was outspoken against the establishment, even at the expense of both their careers. We could use more people like him.😢❤
Comedians today don't have the intelligence to do what the Smothers Brothers did. They only know profanity, obscenity, and all things vile, and find them funny. I, like you, do not. I saw them on a rerun of Johnny Carson. Tommy did the best impression of Johnny I have ever seen. I miss real comedy genius!
So sad to hear this news. I owe a debt to these two for helping shape my thinking and for entertaining me as a young person. Thank you both. Tom, sail away without a care. I hope there is peace where you are now. ❤
Some of my fondest fading memories are of you and your brother making our family laugh out loud every time. A wish for you from a Navy man, sail away peacefully Tommy with set sails, fair winds and following seas.
What can I say? My favorite show every week. Mom bought me an album - I had it memorized in 2 hours. I still sing some of their songs during trips. I giggled and laughed and smile the whole show, every show. They were simply the best! We will miss you, Tom! Thank you for so many things. God's peace to you Dickie!
Loved these guys. I always imagined their childhoods were full of laughter and joy. I say that because the siblings were named Tom, Dick, and Sherry. Their folks had a great sense of humor.
Their show was the best, I was sad when it ended. Thanks Tommy for all the laughs and good music. And Mom's favorite Dick, you two blended you voices so beautifully. Tommy is singing and playing his guitar with all the other musicians who have passed before.
Every time a new album was released, I bought it. I practically wore those 33s out playing them over and over and laughing and singing along with these amazing entertainers.
Wow, I didn't know till just now. I LOVED them when I was a kid---couldn't wait for the show (both versions) to come on every week!!! Tommy's facial expressions were hilarious. Their timing was impeccable. Thanks for bringing so much laughter into the world.
We watched their show whenever it was on. My step-mom went to high school with them (Redondo High School). She pointed that out every time they were on. She said their personalities in real life were very similar to how they were on stage.
I so loved the Smothers Brothers on TV...so much humor and so much LOVE! Sympathies to Dick and all the family-Tommy was a jewel that will always shine.
Thank you Tommy!!:) Thank you Smothers Brothers for all the laughs! RIP Tommy. Thoughts and prayers go out to the family. You will always be remembered

So true. Running a high school is important.
@@akrenwinkle The principle quality of a good principal is that he have principles.
@@someguy2135 Still wrong!

I am so sad Tommy is gone. I loved the Smothers Bros and remember their show well. So creative and witty. And also considered very edgy in their day.
Perfect timing, perfect harmonies, incredible talent. Tommy, Mom may have liked Dickie best, but we loved you most. Rest In Peace...
Well said!
Oh well said. We all loved Tommy.

Spot on. Thanks.
They were so wholesome, but absurdist, and they sounded great. I''ll always love them for having Pete Seeger on their show.
…and The Who. A classic TV moment✅
I tried to never miss a show.
I saw Pete Seeger in '76.
I got to sit on the stage though I can't remember why.🤔
Wholesome? They were anarchists😂😂
I love them in general but was impressed by the time they had THE WHO on, that was hilarious and super cool!
👍👍👍👍👍
Will never forget the first time I heard “Mom Always Liked You Best.” We held our sides in while we laughed uncontrollably. Thank you Tom & Dick!
They pushed limits, stood by their convictions and exposed us to truth. They knew the consequences and still did what their hearts told them. They made us laugh, sing and enjoy life for a while.
I was a child in the 1960s but loved watching The Smothers Brothers. I loved their humor. R.I.P.
The Smothers Brothers were the original 1960s Hippie Liberals! I remember them well, as I came of age in the 1970s!
Ditto, ditto, ditto!
Thank you to both of the Smothers brothers for making my childhood a bit more fun.
Same here.
This one hurts, and makes me feel a little older. same feeling I had when George Carlin passed. both geniuses
It is quite something to think that Carlin would be woke enemy number one now.

Boy did we have a great time as a family watching these two. Rest in Peace Tommy. Thanks for all the laughs.
RIP Tommy. You and your brother (the one mom liked best) brought joy and laughter and sometimes tears to millions.
I grew up laughing myself silly watching Tom and Dickie, a form of humor I still love to this day. Thanks for the memories, and RIP, Tom.
The Smothers brothers was always a treat to watch on television when I was a little kid. My deepest condolences.
RIP Tommy. Not just a great comedian and musician, but a great comedy writer. You will be missed.
Rest in Peace, Tommy. Thanks for all the laughs - Cor, the Netherlands
They were one, or two, of a kind. So funny and could connect with everyone. Tom will be greatly missed by a grateful world.
Wow, I didn't know till just now. I LOVED them when I was a kid---couldn't wait for the show (both versions) to come on every week!!! Tommy's facial expressions were hilarious. Their timing was impeccable. Thanks for bringing so much laughter into the world.
I'm so grateful for them both... and I send hugs to all those who love Tom. May his artistry resound forever. ⛵
We watched their show whenever it was on. My step-mom went to high school with them (Redondo High School). She pointed that out every time they were on. She said their personalities in real life were very similar to how they were on stage.
RIP, Tom. I grew up with you guys on TV. Loved it always. Some of the best entertainment ever offered to view. Thank you so much.
You guys were so far ahead of your time enjoyed your shows, RIP TOMMY
I'll miss him for sure.
Rest in peace Mr. Smothers.
I so loved the Smothers Brothers on TV...so much humor and so much LOVE! Sympathies to Dick and all the family-Tommy was a jewel that will always shine.
Thank you Tommy!!:) Thank you Smothers Brothers for all the laughs! RIP Tommy. Thoughts and prayers go out to the family. You will always be remembered
