I remember watching a biography show about Johnny Carson, and one of his staff said that they put together a "run sheet" for Carson for each episode. It would be about 3-4 pages long and it would list some background information and topics about the guests on the show. The staff member said that, when Don Rickles was a guest, all they had to do was write was one word: "Rickles".

That's remarkable. Johnny Carson going toe to toe with Don Rickles, and poor Robert Blake just sitting there dying. I wish I could see the rest of that show, Bob Hope and Desi Arnez. They would have been darned interesting too. Johnny was the GOAT, but he was helped by having far more interesting guests than they get nowadays. Guests who actually had something to talk about besides plugging their latest movie or TV show. I do remember however, not too long after Jimmy Fallon took over the show, he had Rickles on. Fallon, I think, is rather silly most of the time, but it was interesting to see the deep respect with which he treated Rickles. He was almost in awe of the man. Rickles was just as good as he was here. That was only a few weeks before he died but if he was in poor health, I couldn't tell.

The outfit was part of a thing that had been building for weeks. Carson was in the habit of using a falsetto voice and sang “Like a Rhinestone Cowboy” when one of his jokes bombed. Somehow they came up with the idea to have him sing the entire song in that voice. In this episode, rather than his usual opening monologue, Carson sang “Rhinestone Cowboy” with Doc and the orchestra backing him up.

The look on Johnny's face at 15:53 tells you everything you need to know about how special Rickles was.

That was kinda funny. Not just the jokes, but Robert Blake was completely disarmed in front of Rickles. He didn't know what to do or say for a while. And you could tell that he was trying to relax and show appreciation of the jokes so he sort of reached out and grabbed Rickles Shoulder. Rickles grabbed a hold of that and started running with it, mercilessly lampooning Blakes behavior who you could tell was feeling a little akward but wanted to be seen as relaxed and cool. But Rickles just has an instinct for improvising jokes at everybody elses expense and he was just relentless to the point that Blake was laughing at Rickles sort of lightheartedly making fun of his gestures. Wow you have to have a tough skin to be involved in that conversation between Rickles and Carson. They go at each other like two Tomcats, and anybody that gets in the way is gonna catch a claw. But it was fun to watch, and it was great to see Blake. I remembered the face, but I couldn't remember the name until I heard it, and then when they started talking about the Cocatoo I was sure of who it was.
