Check this out. Some of the funniest moments on television I’ve ever seen.

In the old days, Carson was on for 90 minutes, and his guests would stay and stack up. The talent he had out there at one time was not infrequently some of the sharpest entertainment minds of all time.

Thanks for posting. I love watching the old stars. The Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts are good too. Classic TV. Don Rickles and Burt Reynolds were always good guests on Johnny’s Show. Angie Dickinson comes to mind—she and Johnny had chemistry. When Liz Taylor died, I posted a video of Johnny and her on his show. She was older then, but looked great and very funny.

So many funny, classic moments on his show over the years.

Ha, ha—at the end he said Carol Wayne was coming up. I used to love the comedy bits he did with her as the sleazy salesman.

I always liked this one where Johnny tracks down Don Rickles on the CPO Sharkey set to confront him about a broken cigarette box the previous night when Rickles was guest hosting.
