Saw him at Westbury Music Fair and he stayed after the show and signed everyone's program and personally thanked everyone. I was a kid and my parents took me and he was very kind. He appreciated everyone coming to the show. What a wonderful man he was!!

@@WillaHerrera if you mean the fact he was gay, he didn’t fight that. He fought the censors. He didn’t struggle with his sexuality at all; he was obviously very comfortable with it. He used to make it obvious, especially on ‘Hollywood Squares’, so I don’t understand what you mean.

He made Hollywood squares so much better

I sure miss Paul Lynde. What a funny guy!

Paul's laugh is iconic😊

His comedic talent was in his DNA. He was a class clown in high school & very popular. His spontinayety with comebacks developed into a fibe art, as well as his timing. Excellent talent who died way too soon.

Why were these conversations SO MUCH BETTER back then? Why does this feel like.. so real?

"It's amazing what you can do....when you have to do SOMETHING!" - Paul Lynde That's a great quote, worth framing and hanging on your wall!!

He started out a bit shy but quickly relaxed and told some interesting stories

Brilliant

He was so naturally funny just love him❤

I really miss him.

Two of the greats ! Miss them both.

This is a wonderful video. I've never seen him more serious before.

Paul Lynde seems like a talented performer with a knack for telling a story in an interactive fashion. I loved him on Bewitched and from seeing him on Squares.

Late night was great once. The guests were talented too. It is wonderful to see Paul Lynde as himself.

That's not true. He had writers. He didn't like winging it, he preferred to have a script.

What a true talent he was. I wish he were still around today. He was first class all the way. God Bless him.

First experience of Lynde was in Send Me No Flowers as a rather enthusiastic cemetery manager when Rock Hudson goes to buy himself a plot.

Back in the day you could laugh till you had tears in your eyes at either the Carol Burnett Show or Paul Lynde's answers on Hollywood Squares. His timing with the answers was genius - incredibly quick-witted. Great candid interview. I miss Carson...he was the greatest.

A funny brilliant man gave joy to millions.

I love his candour at a time when actors and performers were rarely honest. He was very honest about how tough showbiz is to make it in. Very interesting little stories and insights. Thanks for uploading.

A unique character. Absolutely his own style. Great voice. The hooded claw? Just brilliant.

Absolutely loved Paul’s work, and would laugh so hard at his deliveries and one liners. Loved his work on I dream of Jeanie. To hear him speak from the heart so openly like this is a real treat. RIP 🙏🏽❤️

Thank you SO much for posting this! He was so bravely, generously BRILLIANT. What an int’l treasure: Paul Lynde: Respect always. 💕💗❤️

The censor may not of understood a lot pf Lynde's answers.

"Scared of coming out and being myself." Around 2:54. Profound and yet completely honest even if not by design. Paul Lynde was a game-changer.

That desk looks like wood paneling 😆

Paul was so sincere, and appears kind. His eyes seem to show honesty. He seems perceptive on the fly, probably the "timing" thing he mentions as being God-given. The warmth he exudes for his audience. In my opinion, regardless of if the world was ready for him or not, had he managed any insecurities further, he could have gone in so many directions with his calling in life. And we'd be so much the richer for it. His humble beginnings carried with him throughout.

His style and class has no competition in the ironic, sarcastic & quiet venomous sting of a Blue Scorpian that went as unseen as the sword of Damocles fell! 👏 👏👏 #Epic

Great video! Two legends

Peter Marshall : Paul is it true a female dog can sometimes give birth to as many as twelve puppies Paul - "That Bitch" !

Paul happens to be one of my favorite actor. He was very humorous with his comics energy. Hollywood squares being in the middle box. The only reason why I watched. And loved Bewitch. He was sick of being on the show Squares. But with his humor I wanted to meet him. He's gone and never will be forgotten. Because you had this the best funny bones ever.

"You have no peer", Paul was exactly correct, no one ever replaced Johnny. Johnny was the best

Lol, he said, "water was like 85¢"... What a premonition

Unbelievable funny man

Only one Paul Lynde..brought me so many laughs.

Wow he sounds exactly like Templeton when he’s normally talking. I thought he changed his voice for templeton but I’m wrong 😂😂

I never heard of Paul Lynde until I read online that Seth MacFarlane based his voice for Roger from _American Dad!_ on him. After watching this video, I gotta say Lynde sure is funny.

People just got up and started dancing, and there wasn’t any music Now that’s funny.

Johnny was ALWAYS a class act. Wish the rest of them were...
