Johnny had class.
In private, he was always called John and was very shy and withdrawn. Although, a friend of mine once temped as his secretary and she loved him.

I think we can figure out which side of the aisle he was on. But unlike these make believe Carson’s that we see now he didn’t show it off.

And he was a true comedic genius, he doesn’t get nearly enough credit for that.

It was known during his popularity that he lived a life that mirrored his on-screen personality. But it was this public personality we all loved and embraced.
I’ve acquired a number of YouTube videos of vignettes from his shows. They’re a great reminder of how good television can be when done right, by people with talent.

One of my favorite Johnny Carson moments:
Johnny barging in on the live taping of CPO Sharkey to confront Don Rickles over a broken cigar box.
Classic!
To: Jeff Chandler
It was so big that it couldn't even hide in Dolly Parton’s bra.
( using one of Johnny's favorite subjects )

My favorite was when he did Walter Cronkite when he left CBS....”For God’s sake, knock off that tickety-tickety....nineteen years of tickety-tickety...”

In reading the article, the person doing the documentary tried to get Carson to agree to it for years before his death. Carson never did agree. He’s now working with Carson’s nephew (who manages Carson’s archives), because the family doesn’t want him to be forgotten.

I’ll never forget the night Ed Ames threw the tomahawk at the human outline on the sheet of plywood!

He was much funnier than anyone on TV or in movies now. I also miss him. A true comedic genius. Loved the surprise on Julio Iglesias’ face when Johnny came on stage as Willie Nelson for “All the Girls I Loved Before”. Johnny actually sang that as well as old Willie.
