As a kid in the seventies, I never missed Carol Burnett show. Not only that, I had a huge crush on Tim. I had the hots for him. I realized then that the most important thing in a relationship is humor. Hands down! Rest in peace my crush

The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson = FUN!

Thomas Daniel "Tim" Conway (December 15, 1933 - May 14, 2019) was an American actor, comedian, writer, and director. From 1966 to 2012 he appeared in more than 100 TV shows, TV series and films.

This is great history. Thank you

I miss them! Take me back please.

The doctor was hilarious. Really more funny than anyone else there. LOL LOL LOL

Tim came by the Radio Station, I interviewed him and he was so kind, quick witted, confident we had alot of fun, kinda like running into an old friend. thanks Tim. RIP

I miss Johnny

The Johnny Carson show was untouchable

Nobody will ever be able to fill his shoes

I have looked for this for FORTY YEARS! No kidding!!! FANTASTIC! THANKS!~!

Marilyn R. Meier-O'Brien The next best, in my opinion, was Craig Ferguson and his 10 year Late Night Show. He was funny but also did outstanding interviews such as with Rev Desmond Tutu. Craig received an Emmy for that interview. Everyone after Johnny and Craig are number 3, in my quite biased opinion, lol.

About Superman...the story, by a fellow named Schuster, was in fact created in Toronto, Canada. A large news building known as The Toronto Daily Star, located downtown, was the model for The Daily Planet. No kidding!

Nice to see Grandpa Dunny hamming it up with Carson.

prryor's wit was off the charts. he was one of my favorite comedians.. He came from a hard scrabble life and used that adversity for comedy.. he still wrestled with his own demons like many of us do.. His style was crazy,zany and downright imaginative.. A very smart man!!

And talk about self-aware! He was able to recognize a way in which his parents harmed him and made the conscious decision to stop that trauma from passing to his children, and could talk about it in a hilarious way!

1979 was when this aired.

GREAT SHIOW. VERY FUNNY.

Dr Smith capped off the guest list nicely. Maybe I don't remember him because I worked nights for many years, but he held his own, kept the audience engaged and had Richard laughing, I think in tears.

I haven't watch the Tonight Show since Carson retired. It's crap!! I loved to hear Ed laughing in the background!!

I met Dr. Lendon Smith in Miami in the early '80s when a friend of mine booked him to speak at Miami-Dade Community College. He carried on like that almost constantly. Took them to a vegetarian raw food restaurant and drank wheat grass juice, and the first sip did take him aback for a second. Dr. Smith was a real gentleman, brilliant and hilarious.

That ended rather abruptly, didn't it? Like "poiuytgf" ran out of video tape.

I’m guessing this Superman skit would have been for the upcoming Superman 2 release in June 1981, as the first Superman was released December 1978

This episode is from a few weeks after "Superman: The Movie" was released, which is why Ed says he hears the flying sequences are amazing. It was a groundbreaking part of the film.

Yes, Farrah was affected by drugs on her 1st interview with Letterman. Her inability to recall normal words in her description of events she was attempting to tell, TOLD IT ALL. She had probably taken a combination of drugs known as "downers" for her extreme anxiety, and that toxic mix was interfering with her memory of words. The medical name for this is 'aphasia.' The interview was exotically mesmerizing because of her innocent vulnerability combined with her absolutely gorgeous self. Letterman treated her with kindness, ultra-patience, and with a type of protection realizing her fragile state. The interview was a success for many reasons that I've mentioned, but mostly, it was a moment not unlike an exquisite butterfly who had landed there by Letterman-and he used the time to help her not to get hurt from every one there-the audience, the crew and even from her own vulnerable state. It was Farrah as beautiful as I had ever seen her.

Johnny had a very sexy voice

He was massacred by the press. It was disgusting. But the worst thing ever done to him was done by Reagan when a deal was made to hold off the release of the hostages until Reagan became president (small p) . If I'm not mistaken, they were released during his inauguration. All to make Carter, look bad, and Reagan look great. The country didn't deserve Carter. It was happier with a president who brought about trickle down economics, counted ketchup as a vegetable in school lunches, shut down psychiatric hospitals, and throwing seriously ill people out on the streets. That was the beginning of homelessness in the United States. I was living in NYC at the time, across the street from a famous hospital. I saw the result of what he did literally over night. Carter is a great man. He was a great President, and I love that you said it here.🙏🙏🙏💗
