    Carson will never be equaled. Rickles and Dangerfield came on the show. He just let them go wherever they wanted to go. He'd interject something, they'd keep going and he just sat back and watched it unfold. Those days are gone for good.

      @@Bondek1996 His show was badly treated though. Johnny used to moan and complain on his show about how ITV treated it. London Weekend Television were the company who purchased the show. However instead of airing new editions, they took highlights from the previous week and edited them into a 50 minute edition. This meant so many monologues and routines never aired in England. Only big star interviews, the odd Carnac routine and that was it. A lot of Ed's bits were never seen, and apparently British viewers wrote in asking what Ed McMahon actually did on the show?

      The best thing about Johnny was he let the guests TALK and just kill it.
      Jay and David interrupt too much and try to outdo the guests .
      Johnny went with the flow . Like whenever Jonathan Winters guested . Jonathan would just come up with different stuff and Johnny would just go with the ride.

I don't know if I have the exact words to say how important it was to see them leave and walk off in the sunset. oh by the way what fun it was to have Rickles on for one last time.

  • @sdjahof1964
    @sdjahof1964 9 лет назад +4

    Rickles along with Joan Rivers were brilliant at what they did. They earned the respect of their peers in show business and made us laugh. It works because of who they were. They cared about people. They were honest and showed an interest in everyone that crossed their paths. I had the pleasure of seeing both of them numerous times in Vegas back when they were at their peak. No one was funnier or as quick witted. To D Rickles, a wish for many more good years and to J Rivers, RIP.

      +albanymike I've watched many hours of Rickles over the years (I'm 60 years old). Don tells the same "jokes" over and over and over. I can almost predict what he's going to say. Also, whether he's good or not is not written in stone. It's a matter of personal preference.

    • @albanymike
      @albanymike 8 лет назад +6

      +norelco pc I'm only two years younger than you so we are from the same era. . Sure he has been better, more inventively and hysterically caustic. I simply put this appearance in context as his last on the Carson show, Bittersweet nostalgia when I still considered myself young. I blame RUclips. Lol
