Today's media just wants to be Democrat political propaganda. It also doesn't respect the intellect of the audience. Old shows like Johnny Carson were made by smart people for an audience of decent, smart people. Yes it was frivolous and fun, but these were smart people and they produced content that respected us. Today's shows just want to be woke. So boring.

To get our entertainment fix in 2024, we have to come here and watch Johnny. He was always good for a laugh when he was alive, and he is still doing it all these years after he passed. Thanks, Johnny!

@HardRockMiner: It's about 2 AM Saturday morning. Couldn't sleep so I got up and tuned in for some much needed humor. Years ago my then 11 year old son loved to stay up and watch a little late night TV when possible during the week (no school next day). One night I told him he had to go to bed for school the next day. He glared at me and in a very angry and gravelly voice he said "I know what you two do in there at night, pointing to the master bedroom, you watch Johnny Carson"! Then he stormed off to bed. He and his family live 50 miles from us today but as I watched this clip I was expecting the door to burst open and see him shout "Aha! I new I was right." Sure miss Johnny and all of the tremendous talent he had on his shows over the years.

Ever see a 7" wide tie? My "general shop" teacher, Mr. Bolcar, had one and many other ties. 1968-70.

This is like the fourth time they have uploaded a Newhart clip and each time I have to do a quick google search. Tricks me every time, but I'm really happy that he is still alive.

When Newhart did the skit about the witch doctor talking about his advanced age saying " I don't dance around a hut much anymore." is one example of the little nuances Newhart added to his comedic skits that always increase the levity. Plus Bob Newhart never used profanity in his comic routines.

Bob would set up such a fantastic premise that most comics would take over the top, but he was so sly with his low ball style that you never knew what was coming next. Except that it would be hilarious.

This is wonderful. Where do the years go…I was 19 when this first aired. In many ways, it seems like yesterday. Thank you for posting this great interview.

Bob is a national treasure.

What I have trouble wrapping my head around...... Johnny's show ran 30 years from 1962 to 1992 it seemed to run forever. 1992 to today 2024 means his show has been gone two years longer then it ran....WOW doesn't seem it was that long ago I saw his goodbye show.

He was in “Hell is for Heroes” with Steve McQueen. Weird part, but he did his schtick. He was supposed to get on the radio and convince the enemy there were many more of them in one spot on the front line at his position than actually were. It has all his style in it, to the T.

He is amazing. His cameo on The Big Bang Theory was wonderful. ❤❤❤❤

My dad's copy of Bob's second LP "The Buttoned Down Mind Strikes Back" surfaced after his 80s show ended. I recommend any of Bob's LPs on Warner Brothers--each one has a gem or two on it.

Bob Newhart, I believe, had the first comedy record that hit it big. It was 1960 and #1 on the Billboard "Mono Action Albums" chart for fourteen weeks. AND it won the 1961 Grammy for "Album of the Year." Many people today don't know just how big and well known he was "back in the day." The album is "The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart." It is still a classic.

Bob Newhart had major success with stand-up and sketch comedy in nightclubs and his first TV show and with Grammy Award winning albums, then he managed to move naturally into the central role in two long-running comedy series. It only takes talent.

It goes without saying how superior this is to any of the late night talk shows we have now.

Those were the good ol' days...

Never really noticed it before but Johnny Carson was quite generous to his guests allowing them to bask in the limelight!

This channel just keeps on bringing the best of Mr Carson and all of his wonderful guests! Thank You!!! ❤️

As someone who has relatives in cajun country and originally from southwest Louisiana (30 minutes from Texas) and also listened to 60s and 70s country music as a little kid when this aired (and still do), I'm not offended. In fact, I agree with his cajun accent. Even I sometimes have trouble understanding my cajun relatives. Lol.

When I was a kid, I wanted to play trumpet because of Tijuana Brass. Doc Severinson was why I was always trying to stay up late for the Tonight Show, back in 6th grade!

Bob Newhart was one of a kind. I was only a child in his The Bob Newhart Show days, but I knew a great entertainer when I saw one. I didn’t really care for Newhart, but I loved that short lived show with Judd Hirsh-was that called Bob? The witch doctor bit was really funny. He had impeccable delivery!

This was 50 yrs ago and Bob was really old even then.

Bob is of his game tonight.

The time stamp on these ties is unforgeable! Der Zeitstempel auf diesen Krawatten ....

Bob thinks all country music is just one song, and every character Bob ever played is literally Bob Newhart.

Came across this right as I was thinking all of youtube is just one video.

11:58 -- Johnny takes a quick drag! I don't think the cameraman was supposed to catch that...

Doc is dressed like a stud😎

Bob Newhart was a fabulous comedic original.....I'm sure Jerry Seinfeld was influenced.

Wow… you can really tell what era this was by the suits!…I thought Johnnys was normal until he stood up!

Back when you could smoke on tv.

Funny, when Johnny was in Jackson, MS he was sent to Millsaps College by the Navy....for many, many, many years, Oxford University in the UK would accept transfer credits from only two schools in the US.....Harvard and Millsaps

People around 50 today definitely look younger than they did in the 70s and 80s. In fact, people in general had a more aged look when they were younger. Take a look at pictures of high school students, or professional athletes, in the 70s and 80s. 23-year-old elite athletes -- who you'd expect to look great and be really healthy -- look like a 35-40 year old man today. And what I find weird about it is that these people didn't necessarily die younger. I mean, Bob Newhart in the above video is in his mid-forties, and Carson is under 50. Newhart is still alive, at 94 years old. You'd think that if he looks 60 when he is in his 40s that he was aging terribly and probably going to live a short life. But: _nope_ . He's still around. I'm curious about the real explanation of what the cause is. For example, there's loads of evidence that testosterone levels in men have dropped considerably over the past few decades. Maybe these people don't look older than their ages. They just look the way a man looks when their hormones are properly regulated? That explanation is probably wrong. But, I think there has to be some sort of good scientific explanation. (Another option: Maybe they look older because their environment was more toxic, and we've done more to clean up the air, water, etc.? No clue, honestly. But I agree: it is weird.)

This reminds me of a sort of a joke I would pull on people sometimes. You wait for a time when you are with some people who start talking about country music. They will likely be country music lovers. You say, "Have you heard about the big symposium they're having in Nashville next month?" (They will say no, because there is no such thing.) You say, "Yeah. Each year all the top country music producers and writers get together to discuss a topic to advance country music. This year the topic is 'Is there a need for a fourth chord.'"
