THAT WHY MT. ROOMMATE. LOVED. THE 1970S

Bringing us all laughter even now. Long gone entertainers that you don’t see anymore. Thank God that we can still see them on u tube. They made us laugh, they made us cry, but the memories will never die. Thankyou RIP one and all. 😢

The day this show was live, I had earlier that day pulled a disk in my back. after going to the Dr and getting some pain pills, I was laying on the bed watching this show as the pain pills wore off. The pain was getting worse so I was trying to go over on the TV, where the pill bottle was. Every time I tried to the pills, they told another joke and that sent me back on the bed in pain again, over and over, It was after the show went off the air that I was finally able to take that pill. I have never had so much pain, laughing my head off, and enjoyed it even though it hurt so much with the pain.

I have seen this maybe 10000000 times.....NEVER gets old.... The best

There was nobody like Don Rickles. Nobody. His timing, expressions and quick wit were incomparable. Don’t try to compete…you’ll lose. And his humor was clean. Always clean. I’m so thankful I saw him perform live before he passed away.

Yes, that was good comedy! These comedians mostly were off the top of their head,their were some that thought they had to get dirty, but, they could ( and I'm sure in their night club acts, they were) but they didn't have to be! They were just good!!!!

i really miss them. so glad i still get to see them and remember them.

I miss this type of Television... It was a time where we had alot of the great performances during Johnny's Reign during late night 🌙 Television 📺 ... They were amazing times and will never be forgotten. You knew every time when one of the comedic greats was on his show there was gonna be magic and you were gonna witness a special moment in time. As a young kid in the 70's this was one of my favorite shows because of Rickles and Dangerfield, Dom Deloise, Sammy Davis, and many more. I'm glad we got You Tube and can visit these episodes anytime we want... it brings back fond memories for those of us who loved this type of comedy 🤣

There's also a great clip of the tonight show with Frank Sinatra guest hosting for Johnny and Don Rickles appearing. Frank and Don also loved each other and had great on screen chemistry.

Love watching the great Don Rickles and Johnny Carson. And you have the original commercials! wonderful to see.

This is an incredible documentation of not only one of the greatest TV show hosts of all time, but also of one of the greatest comics of all time, and all of the stars and starletts inbetween. Top that off with all of these classic commericals that I'm sure the networks don't even have copies of anymore and this becomes essentially a history book.

Indeed! I would add one of the greatest guitarists and musicians of all time as well. In fact, Glen Campbell might have been the most talented performer of all the greats on the stage that night. He even did some acting, and he was funny. A lot of folks don’t recognize how great Glen was, but ask a guitarist and chances are they will say he was one of the best ever and possibly the most versatile. If anyone reads this and hasn’t listened to his music, or hasn’t listened in a while, you can find some great performances on KZread of Wichita Lineman (my favorite), Galveston, By the Time I Get to Phoenix, Gentle On My Mind, and more. For pure instrumental brilliance his performance of William Tell Overture is special as well. It was a blessing in so many ways to have grown up during that era, and it’s wonderful to have these videos available to enjoy even today.

It's amazing to be able to see these now. I was never allowed to stay up late for any of them and how FUNNY they were! Nothing now compares to what they had back then. I should watch them all late at night for the full effect.

What memories. Thank you.

“Warm up the car jack, we’re in trouble” 😂 One of the most classic and perfectly timed comedic lines I’ve ever heard. I’m only 29 almost 30 but thank god for KZread and blessing me with one of the greatest comedic minds of all time. Don Rickles was an absolute genius and so quick and witty, and humble as well. Everyone respects Mr. Warmth and adores him, and the coolest thing about it is NO ONE was safe. Any race, sex, religion, or thing could get that work from the Don, and nobody ever got offended either. You almost want him to roast you, that means he likes you. Amazing that he was able to reach generations and generations after his time. Universally funny to all. I can watch him all day.

Got to see Rickles in person in Las Vegas in 1978. I had never really cared for him but my uncle assured me I’d love his show. Well, I was still laughing days after every time I remembered one of his lines. He always chose a couple from the audience he would pick on all during the show and it was hilarious. At the end he asked us all to give the couple a round of applause for being such good sports and he gave them a bottle of Champaign. All of these “classics” were terrific and it was a time when no one was offended by anything. Comedy is all about taking real life situations and mocking them. With today’s population of the eternally offended, good comedy is nearly dead, with the exception of a few like Sebastian Maniscalco. It’s a sad day when we can no longer laugh at ourselves.

Watched this video while on a heroic dose of mushrooms, made me go back to the 70s, good times with trippy audio and visual hallucinations, really made the interviews feel brand new

It's like the entire 70s talk show comedy tropes distilled into 2 hours.

Dear healthy Class, it's a wonderful, great honor to see & witness Sir Don Rickles Sir here. He's in such great form and if you study close enough you can see & witness his immense focus on good health, concentration, and Don's hilariously, hysterically high level of health....and actually many, many years of diligent daily training. His balance and posture are just fantastic, so well centered. It reminds me directly of Ballet and Classical training & Dance, and many great Martial Artists, including Bruce Lee - Founder of Jeet Kune Do, Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, and the legendary Mikael Barishnikov. Don Rickles earned his reputation so well as being somewhat a Universal & Tribunal Spokesperson & Scholar regarding fitness, & good health, for real Class. Role model time. Understanding the value of health & good health, which allows for other great things in life once you have a good career enough to fund food & shelter at minimum always, etc., and thus maintain your good health. Yet without health all the other things in life seem to just fade with no energy to work and stay busy, and to do & be something good with your life. Don's had so much training it's immense though, Class, as in "the fisticuffs" Admiral, lol. Big kid glovey all the way Bear's paws on him, lol. He keeps us in line, Class, always..count on it. Don's awareness is amazing too in this footage, he looks very enlightened and aware of his surroundings, and still such a great showman too entertaining the crowd.

Don Rickles was an equal opportunity insulter. It didn’t matter who you were....lowest and the highest. That’s what people loved and expected of him.

GOOD JOB on all of your health, Class! These folks & Cats have so much style, so much grace, so much heart, so much dedication, so much discipline, so much work, & so much fun for us in their great health & work at School for us, it's impressive and admirable and inspirational. It gets the Universe happy, it helps other peoples realize how good it can be when you are consciously training every day. These magnanomous stars that cheer us up over and over like this in all of their entertainment, work, and hilarity in the business just legally deserve great and the highest accolades, always. So I speak up for that, what a great positive effect they have on the Universe. For the trained eye you can definitely see it, all of their training, with Classical grace, thousands of hours of ballet & dance & music, a Classical nature. Balance, perfect posture, mental positivity, a good attitude, positive energy from getting into "top form" always, regardless of all always. Sir Don Rickles Sir, Sir Johnny Carson & all their pals are uplifting. Challenging our brainminds with bright, happy, & intellectually stimulating Comedy & entertainment. So I like to brag it's my joy to praise them so much for it, so I encourage the Class to study the word "Classical", to find out what these greats in the show business are somewhat all about always. I see lots of things, man, in their form..basically in so many words, just "top-forming out always, regardless of all always", (aroaa) their claim to fame. And we're funding their fame they earned with such "absolutely priceless" EUD service aroaa. Graces up out, man thanks.✌😇❤🎇🌈😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😁🎵🎼🎧🎤📽🎹🎬🎷🎺👍👍📀📜🔒🔐🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
