Hosts of yesteryear were guilty of being insecure limelight hogs, too, though - i.e. Dick "Prisspot" Cavett. He didn't just roll with the wild antics of John Cassavetes, Peter Falk, and Ben Gazzara during that infamous interview. Instead Old Prisspants walked offstage. What a humorless boob. He even managed to flub up an otherwise easy interview with the superbly charming, easygoing, and surprisingly humble Alain Delon (gorgeous legendary French actor). Idk about other people, but I don't turn on talk shows to watch the hosts, per se, but rather to watch the guests and, if the host is a natural like Carson, to watch the host guide the show along or lean back and let the guests lead when necessary. A contemporary host who is brilliant at his job in the style of Carson is Graham Norton.

George nailed it. Classic. Imagine a time when people actually looked forward to broadcast TV show compared to the tripe we suffer today.

Digging around for trivia on these great comedians, I found that George Gobel had used that line some years before on another show. His talent shows in that he knew exactly when to use it. It still slays me as much as it did the first time I saw it. When Johnny retired, he said that most of the old shows were lost forever. One can imagine what those kinescopes and tapes held in the world of late night entertainment.

Dean Martin - best party crasher ever.

Johnny Carson was once asked what was his favorite episode of his show out of 30 years and he named this one. Unfortunately, most of his earlier shows were destroyed to make room in the NBC archives, but this one survived because they transferred it over to film to send it over to Vietnam to entertain our soldiers.

A few interesting things about this. Bob Hope was a "surprise guest" and wasn't billed even though the show knew he was going to do a walk on. Dean was a genuine surprise and decided to walk on when he heard that Bob was there. According to Ed McMahon, they wanted to bump George because they were worried that he would kill the momentum. But Johnny insisted on keeping him. It shows you how great Carson's instincts were.

Who gives thumbs down to this show? Do you not know what entertainment is?

Friday, Feb 18, 1969. I was visiting in LA, driving around in the evening with the radio on. The DJ I was listening to had attended The Tonight Show taping earlier that evening.(When visiting Hollywood, the show was taped about 5:30-7:00 and fed to New York for broadcast at the usual 11:30 Eastern Time.).He said the show had been especially good and urged listeners to watch when it came on at 11:30 Pacific Time. I made sure I was at my mother's in time to watch it. Loved it. Two days later I was back home in Honolulu. In those days, network shows were broadcast one week later in Hawaii due to no satellite feed available. I told most of my friends to be sure to watch the Tonight show on Friday night at 10:30 Hawaiian Time. Many of them did, and I got to watch it again. The greatest Tonight Show ever, and I saw most of them going back to Steve Allen.

This is my all time favorite of the tonight show. Any time Dean was on was a treat.

Johnny Carson was the KING of late night talk. And I remember watching this particular show. It was probably one of the best shows Johnny did. I was born in 1958, and I was about 8 years old. My dad worked at International Paper Co. in Mobile, Al. My mom let me stay up one Friday night so I could meet my dad. He was on the 3 to 11 shift that week, so he would get home about 11:30 or a little after. My grandfather had Johnny Carson on the TV, and I sat with him and watched it waiting on my dad. And for some reason, I got so interested in Johnny's show and his guest that I got hooked on watching him every night at 10 pm. Mom and dad said I could stay up as long as my school grades stayed good. So I watched Johnny Carson from that night until his very last show. Late night talk now is crap compared to the Jonny Carson show. Him and all the great stars in those days are surely missed. Oh, and the smoking? Thoes days most everyone smoked. That was when you could smoke anywhere. In department and grocery stores, on airplanes and even in hospitals.

What a lineup. Bob Hope, Dean Martin, George Gobel, Judy Carne, Robert Wagner and Carol Wayne.

I know that when one grows older there is a tendency to romanticize the past; however, in this particular case I believe that I am correct. After all, this show was targeted to my parent's generation and not to mine. The level of comedy and the ability of Carson, on the fly, to respond to the moment is almost unequaled today. There was no political correctness yet nothing really untoward was said. It's a bygone era. That's very sad yet we do have these videos. Thank God for that.

I’m almost 50 and actually missed the classic Carson years the first time around. I first got into late night when Carson was approaching his twilight years and Letterman was coming onto the scene. I always loved Johnny and knew he was a legend even when I was a kid. I loved Dave Letterman, too. But Letterman was different in so many ways and you really sensed the generational contrasts between the two. It almost felt like a father being followed by his unruly son! With the passage of time and Johnny’s own passing, I think I love and appreciate Carson even more. His timing, always impeccable! No one has ever been able to come close to Johnny’s cool professionalism. And he knew how to handle a wild and wooly situation, like the one we see in this classic clip! As for the clip, I love it for its unbridled political incorrectness. Just a bunch of cool guys (and gals) having fun together. As for today’s hosts, they truly do pale in comparison. They lack that razor sharp timing. They don’t have comedy in their bones the way Carson did. Kimmel has gotten too political (along with everyone else in the world it seems) and Fallon just seems like a hyped up kid who I can only take in small doses! Sounds like I’m getting old, but I like to think I’m getting wiser and more discerning.

I wish my generation had humor like this😂😂

One of the greatest Johnny Carson shows of all time.

Gobel is almost forgotten today except to vintage guitar collectors who are familiar with the Gibson "George Gobel" model guitar. But, Gobel was a very funny guy who had his own TV show in the late fifties and was seen on TV for years after that. Not the heavyweight that Martin, Hope or Carson,etc., were but someone who could be very funny telling the most innocuous story. Some of his TV show clips are on YT.

I remember watching this when it first aired. It was funny then and it is still funny today. The spontaneous humor is what made the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson the best.

WOW. I was born way too late. This is amazing. Watching these three sitting around drinking and smoking on television and having fun. When Martin ashes his cigarette in the other guys cup i though i was going to die.....lol!

“How long do you have to wear that brace?” 😂 I first watched this almost 20 years ago and it still kills me every time I hear this line 😂😂

One of the best late night shows ever. Each person was a Hollywood icon practically. It just doesn't exist today.

Tuxedo & brown shoes...one of the best lines on TV.

What made this such a special event was the pure presence of everyone individually and how they seamlessly played off of each other. This fed into the George Gobel portion which was one of the best you will ever see. For you to see Bob Hope belly laughing when he has either heard or wrote all of the jokes ever told is quite a special moment. You also have to remember, Dean literally just showed up. He was shooting his show a few studio's away.

You can tell these guys are all friends.... And they actually like each other. Late night talk show hosts of 2022 are not even in kindergarten compared to these guys.

It is amazing dean martin lived as long as he did, puffing away like that on those cigarettes. The good old days.

This show aired on March 6, 1969. We don't have this kind of comedy any more. Great vid.

I’m just speachless! Brilliant tv at its best!💖

Brilliant. Funny, funny, funny. They broke the mould when these guys came along.

Who'd have thunk it, Lonesome George Gobel steals the show from Carson, Hope and Dean Martin . It was a great show.. They are all were all very happy to see George get the biggest laughs. These guys were pros.

Great men and late night entertainment. I would watch late night talk shows today if their agenda was to entertain versus their political agenda.

One of the great and greatly charming examples from a really charming and (apparently) irreplaceable show. Merci.
