Funny and Fabulous! - Johnny Carson Shines
If you loved the
Tonight
show
with
Johnny
Carson
, you will love this!! I bought it for my Dad this past Christmas. The whole family sat around and watched it together. We had a great time, even my nephews who are 16 and 17 were laughing out loud. It was both funny and sentimental. My Dad espically liked seeing the old stars. Like the reader before me, Jimmy Stewart's "a dog named BO" was one we all got teary eyed over. The last show with Bette Midler and Robin Williams was fantastic. Robin had us rolling on the floor! And the lady with the potato chips was a hit with the younger people. To many funny things to list. (make sure you don't throw out your back laughing) This is a wonderful
collection
for most ages. A true Masterpiece.

Johnny Carson: His Favorite Moments From the Tonight Show Gi
Worth every penny!! This box set will make you laugh out loud and Jimmy Stewart may even bring a tear to your eye. This is my first taste of
Johnny
Carson
(I'm English!) After this introduction I am a true fan. Five stars!!!
I REMEMBER THOES DAYS
SAW IT AT A FRIENDS AND REMEMBERED THOES DAYS. WITH MOM AND DAD
EATING POPCORN AND LAUGHING. THESE TAPES REALY SENT ME BACK.
Never be another Johnny
The above is a direct quote from my late grandmother. When she was depressed or unhappy, these tapes comforted her and made her laugh. We watched these tapes so many times that I could predict exactly when the animals would pounce on
Johnny
--but then, the animals always pounced on Johnny! For a warm personality he was not fond of his wild guests of the four-footed variety...although I can't blame him for getting squeamish when the beetle crawled up his suit!
The one thing I would ever critique about Johnny is that David Letterman getting jokes as opposed to Jay Leno, who did a whole
show
on Johnny with obvious love, seems a bit like picking a favorite child. Jay's humor and grace always seem more Johnny-esque than the overly self-satisfied Dave, who laughs entirely too much at his own jokes as opposed to Jay, who laughs mostly at himself.
But Johnny is still the king of late-night, having walked through the invisible curtain onto Heaven's stage...do you think the angels trumpeted, "Heeerre's Johnny" when he arrived in Heaven? Johnny's son Rick has surely welcomed him Home. When we saw into Johnny's personal foibles and a bit into the life of this fiercely private man, it meant something, especially in our exploitative showbiz culture.
My favorite moments, too many to list:
* Dyan Cannon laughing over her new romance and making comparisons with Johnny as a boyfriend
* Liz Taylor saying in response to Johhny's "I was married to a Pisces": "I'm sure you were!"
* George Carlin's Hippy Dippy Weatherman
* Drew Barrymore before she decided to become a political expert
* Joey Lawrence and the kid from Parenthood who said he thought he looked "cute" on the monitors
* The spelling bee champ who asked Johnny to come to his birthday party and gave away Johnny's birthdate
* The potato chip lady
* Steve Martin's "The great Flydini"
* Drew Carey's first appearance
* Bobby Kennedy
* A picture of a long-haired Arnold Schwarzenegger
* A Tarzan skit with Betty White
* Duet with Julio Iglesias, Johnny playing Willie Nelson (Julio can barely finish the song for laughing)
* AH! The Bette Midler tribute!
* Anything with Jimmy Stewart
* Jay and Dave's debuts and Joe Piscopo imitating Dave's laugh
* Roseanne Barr
* Bill Clinton's appearance (no interns under Johnny's desk)
* Flip Wilson and Pearl Bailey
* Tiny Tim!
* Elizabeth Martineau working on Johnny's feet and telling him he would remarry again..."not with a woman"
* Jack Webb's appearance
* Johnny's imitation of Ronald Reagan!
* Stevie Wonder's appearance on the "inside look" at the making of the show
Great
collection
. I'm sure the DVD is superior but...this one has sentimental value. Thanks Johnny and we bid you a very heartfelt goodnight.
