So sad to hear that Charles Grodin passed away at 86 today. The world has lost a legend. RIP Mr Grodin. Thank you for all the great late night interviews.

Well said.

Grodin was terrific - his deadpan humor and surly character he created for Carson and Letterman was brilliantly funny 😄👏👏 RIP Charles 🙏

Two comic geniuses

I was in the audience for this show. I took a Greyhound bus 2000+ miles cross country at age 19 to see Johnny Carson in person before he retired. I still have the ticket stub in a shoebox somewhere. K.D. Lang sang Constant Craving on this show too. I wish I had a copy of the entire episode.

That’s a great story. But you are now obligated to tell us what that was like. Not the bus ride. But the part in Burbank. Don’t worry about rambling. Let it rip. I took the NBC studio tour once in 1979 while the show was being recorded, and we were able to peak in the studio door. Never had the opportunity to see a full session.

@@JamieSmith-fz2mz Got the 800# from the Yelowpages, booked a room at the Quality Inn on Hollywood blvd. Took a cab to Burbank. Met some cool people from the Midwest waiting in line who gave me a ride back to the hotel after the show. Sitting in the studio it got dead silent, a guy on stage held up his fingers 5, 4, 3... : BOOM to hear that live orchestra burst into that theme was such an overwhelming and visceral experience. It was surreal. I was kind of mesmerized during the whole show after that. The monologue was genuinely funny. It was all great, and was over in a blink of an eye, and I was back on the sidewalk in Burbank, dazed, confused, and giddy as a schoolgirl. Later that night I used my fake ID to hit the clubs on the strip. I was buzzed and stumbling around Sunset blvd. until almost daybreak. Good times. 👍

Great devotion. Like when I took a Greyhound from NM to Chicago to see Stacy Keach in his last Hemingway show. Gave the usher a signed copy of my Hem graphic novel to give him; a couple weeks later received a thank you email from him. Pretty neat

This is the 3rd Grodin/Carson vid I watched here tonight. These guys are hilarious! They are cracking each other up. You can see Grodin fighting back the smile. Priceless and timeless.

The great thing about yt is keeping these gems alive.

Never a dull dialogue when these two meet 👍

This is fantastic! Charles Grodin and Johnny Carson are two of my favorites.

Of all the great comic actors I've had the blessing of enjoying in my lifetime Charles Grodin is my favorite. I like him even more than Gene Wilder.

Comedy Gold - un scripted - two great talents - I woke up missing dead family members due to a dream i had last night - clicked on this clip and laughed so hard i had tears of joy - thanks guys may you RIP

2:27...You got a book, you got a film, you got a play... didn't you cut a record this week too... Carson's crowning achievement in his Charles Grodin confrontations ... 😂😂😂👍

Perhaps the greatest 11:25 minutes of talk show history. The so called late night "Hosts" of our current times pale in comparison. We need a Charles Grodin in 2021.

Carson won the final battle.these two guys were awesome together.👍

LOVE these two together.

I used to love it when Grodin showed up because it brought out Johnny’s best comebacks. “What do you think I am, Evelyn Wood?!?”

One of THE best guests ever on Carson

Didn't see this till now. Wow! I'm in stiches😂 over here!

These guys were gold

Now they are trading barbs in the late night set in the sky ♡

when r you gonna start? brilliant and quick AF

In all of his appearances on Carson's show, I think this is the closest Grodin ever got to actually plugging any of the things he was meant to plug on the show.....and I strongly suspect they only got the movie stuff out of him due to contractual obligation from the movie studio.....

Beethoven was my favorite movie from his .

Very funny

No this is parody dummy

When Grodin was billed to appear on Carson you KNEW what was going to happen Recalling a prior meetup Carson to Grodin 'We don't really know each other very well, You've never invited me over to your house for dinner Grodin to Carson.....No No Of course not' Casron to Grodin "And if you did I would not come".
