Jack’s reference to Halley’s Comet at the beginning … would have been particularly in the public consciousness at that time. Last time the comet appeared was in 1986.
Nobody will ever top Johnny. He had class, funny and intelligence and interesting to watch all at the same time. Rip legend. You are missed and needed more than ever in this increasingly dark time
I also miss the caliber of guests Johnny had on the show! They were all fantastic also!
Johnny let Jack do his thing. That is class.
He knows good entertainment when he sees it and he knows when a guest is working, stay the hell out of the way!.
Jack was right about those who came after Johnny.
and they know it...
Especially the ones nowadays, they’re just plain bad.
@@AFMMarcelDYou’re completely delusional
What a wonderful story teller Jack is here. I barely remember him (I'm 78) but I liked him.
So unique. As is Johnny. Two very different personalities. Both originals for sure. I'm watching this before breakfast and happy to belly laugh so early in my day. Both are missed greatly.
Absolutely beautiful comment

💋
The level of respect in those days will never be matched 🥂
What a fantastic piece. I'm so glad that these tonight shows are available.
That was amazing. He seemed so ahead of his time. Almost like a Norm Macdonald type comedy/personality.
That was really great.
He was definitely a McDonald type personality. Especially when he stood up to the network and walked off The Tonight Show as it was being aired live.
As he said, his personality traits did him in! Imagine being his level of nervousness before every show! He was a wreck bef show started!
Plus he was smarter that 90% of guests which prob drove him crazy over time, having to dumb down his questions.
Mutual Respect and Admiration.
I loved Johnny! Jack wasn't wrong.
oh my ...What a treat .thankyou... boy I miss my parents.
One of Johnnies best guests! His history is terrific w mom complaining about losing Walter!
"And to this day you're sticking to this story."
Johnny was the MASTER!
Carson was the best. This shows just how great he really was. Notice how he lays back and lets his guest go on with what he's saying and doesn't try to control or orchestrate him, what a pro.
I always thought that Jack and Johnny looked quite a bit alike.
Watching the "Carson Show" as everybody called it back then, was so comforting. After watching, especially when it was 1 1/2 hours long, I could simply drift off to sleep and dream of wonderful things.
We miss you Johnny and Ed and Doc too.
Jack and Johnny a great piece of The talented Men ever ; never got to see the 2nite show but watching these clip are fabulous what yr was this
8:43 And Jack Paar was right , nobody equalled Johnny Carson , i discovered him 25 years after him left the tonight Show .... and i do wait for all the new episodes on CZcams. No wonder why he was a member of every American family for 30 Years, the kindest funniest , the most talented gentleman on TV, ever. All the guests stars or beginners.... agreed .
This phrase "nobody is irreplacable" is really incomplete. For a high level of quality to remain stable ..... some are .... in every domain. We all know that now in 2024. Don't we ? 😉
DITTO !!!!
Boy... Jack sure knew how to milk applause on his entrance.
And Johnny was so amused watching him do it.
Thats just how humble Jack was. If you catch any other interviews he did (Letterman, etc), he was the exact same way.
@@milosterwheeler2520 Exactly. That's a pro move.
Who is "So?"@@joannaedwards6325
What a great clip!!!
Something tells me Jack did not have a hard time filling 3 hours. 😂
Is he a dandy boy?
@@SSNESS
Who cares????? 🌈
@@SSNESS He was fiercely anti-gay.
Too good to shake Doc's hand......he knew the routine. It was a deliberate snub.
Johnny was great no one could replace him I injoyed him jack was good to
I hated it when Jack Paar went off the air. But Johnny was really a great replacement.
He sounds like Judy Garland telling a story
Jack was before my time, and since I’m 73. I'll bet he was long before most people's time. From what I understand, compared to Johnny Jack was rather blah. I'm glad I was around in Johnny's time. He was terrific. But I really enjoyed his stories in this chip.
I'm 26 and carson is my favorite too! Sending love from cali, hope your health and family is good!
I'm 70 and I remember hearing the Johnny Carson show coming from my parents' bedroom. I fell in love with him from afar. Lol
Jack's show had a different format from Johnny's. As Jack himself said, he could never do the type of show that Johnny did. However, for the type of show that Jack did, he was also very talented and was highly respected. Johnny hesitated in taking over the Tonght Show, fearing that he would not be able to fill Jack's shoes. The rest, as they say, is history.
I’m 64. I don’t know about Jack, but my mother told me Johnny was her best friend. 😅
Jack was ahead of his time in some ways. Im sure he would benefit from more unusual comedy skits and shticks like a Letterman. He wasnt the interviewer Johnny was. Nobody was or is.
I am quite honest in saying I was not a real Jack Paar fan….nor a “can’t wait to see” type person when it came to these type shows & THEN😳Johnny Carson (no, we are NOT related😢) took over the HELM! Then, “I was easily HOOKED!”😳 Now, here, wondering at the edge of life as I prepare to welcome my 77th birthday in a few days, WHY was I NOT a “Paar Fan” during his reign?🧐 I certainly, overly enjoyed his appearance here!☺️ I ENCOURAGE those thinking about a talk show, as well as those already in the lineup, “PLEASE TAKE NOTE” because 🌟”THIS is HOW it’s done!”🌟
True comedy gold.
Parr is so likable and entertaining.
I watched this on the original airdate and I knew it was a special moment even though I was born 10 years after Jack Paar left the air
I've heard about Jack before but haven't seen any of his shows and the thing that I find kind of strange is that Jack looks younger than Johnny.
But one of the funniest bits that Jack Paar did on The Tonight Show..was an old film in black and white about the Old European Town about the Harvest of Spaghetti Noodles from the Spaghetti Trees and Bushes! It was so outrageous and funny..it was said that tons of viewers of this sketch wrote in to see if it was truly real! 🥴🤔😜🥰
That was an existing BBC April Fool’s parody clip about the spaghetti. Paar (and a bunch of other networks around the world) replayed it. Google Spaghetti Hoax.
ONLY ONE JOHNNY CARSON 👍
ONE OF ONE
Jack Harold Paar (Canton, Ohio; 01 de mayo de 1918-Greenwich, Connecticut; 27 de enero de 2004) fue un comediante de radio y televisión y presentador de televisión estadounidense, cuyo trabajo más conocido fue el llevado a cabo en The Tonight Show.
Got some Jack Benny vibes from him.
Jack was a good story teller. Johnny and Jack were two different but yet similar hostes. Both were very good at their job, Johnny just had more gears than Jack.
Johnny was a great therapist..He knew how to build the self-esteem of his often insecure guests.
Gives me Jack Lemmon vibes
Except that Jack Lemmon was always a lot funnier and more genuine.
@@QuadMochaMatti I don’t know much about Parr, he seems a little schizophrenic. Lemmon is a legend
This is a terrific study in the differences between Jack Paar and Johnny Carson. The 2 men had strakingly similar backgrounds, but they were quite different. Note how Carson immediately points out that they were not close, and Paar had a nasty habit of making snide comments about Carson. But as was shown here, Paar was a rambling, neurotic mess, as opposed to a cool, calculating Carson. It's little wonder that Carson lasted 25 years longer than Paar.
Johnny Carson emulated this man just a lil bit
Jack Paar ...ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Thank heavens we got Johnny!
I want to see more of Johnny's monologues. The guests are cool and all but I want more Johnny.
You had put this video on here of Jack Paar a while back. So did you just repost it on your channel? Whoever is running this channel, why do you keep holding back on new Don Rickles Videos. He made over 150 appearances, you must have more even with all the tapes that were lost for good. His videos are the funniest videos on here.
Two legends that all the current hosts are trying to emulate - without success.
@JohnnyCarson Hi! You guys are doing a fabulous job uploading these videos! Could you please upload Julia Louis-Dreyfus' interview with Johnny Carson in 1990. Thank You!
Ciomplicated....yes !
I'm gay, and my radar is going off.
I'm getting very sad closet vibes.
@frankpeter6851 Explain? What vibes? A bit of a drama Queen but not gay. He loved looking into the camera and entertaining.
Paar was fiercely anti-gay, anti-feminist and anti-youth culture of the 60s.
@@kindablue1959 Jonathan Winters wondered if Paar was secretly gay too, and Paar was overly obsessed with gay people in general. Looking back at it, he does seem like a gay dude, and him being performatively angry about gay people in entertainment might've been his idea of how to cover it up and keep up appearances. But who knows!
@@guntrythurmond6554 Sorry, but I don't buy into the 'all homophobes are secretly closeted gays' trope. Some people are just truly disturbed by it, especially back then - he wasn't alone in his strong views, and his huge ego made him love to tell the world what he thought was right and wrong. He did seem to have an effeminate air, but lots of straight men are like that. In context, Doc Severinsen and Paul Shaffer both come to mind.
If he wasn’t gay then he absolutely filled in for them when required …
God to professionals making people laugh but who clearly can’t stand each other
Jack talked like a mix of The Wizard from the Wizard of Oz (Frank Morgan) and his contemporaries who had similar shows in the 50s/60s. If that makes sense to anybody.
I hear a lot of Jack Benny in his voice
And there was nothing behind the curtain, or on the audience facing side for that matter.
JOHNNY CARSON DIED ONE YEAR AFTER JACK PAAR DIED...
IN THE SAME MONTH ALMOST ON THE SAME DAY... AMAZING!
BOTH FROM ALMOST THE SAME REASON...
Could someone explain the "my name is Harry Reasoner" joke at the end? Looked him up and he appears to have been a journalist and founder of 60 Minutes. Is the joke that the kid watched too much TV?
Yes, that's the joke.
Talk about milking an entrance!
Jack didn't even acknowledge Doc 🤨 Arrogance!!!
Yes he did ! Turned and asked "Who are you! to Doc and then said "Wheres Skitch? As in Skitch Henderson long time tv band leader!
@@billkramer2994 No, not when Jack first walked out and Doc was standing for his entrance and waiting for Jack to be seated.
@@KenRoberts4KenTheRoad Not what you ist said! Now yr carving out a "time" when Jack ignored Doc. Jack prob wasnt told Ed wasnt there and thought the guy on the sofa was some guest and he had no idea who he was!
Yr the only guy trying to make a nickle out if a penny!!
He did that on purpose. It was a “setup” so he could mention Skitch Henderson. He was a pro.
@@maestromecanico597 No chance! Parr shows his nervousness. Saw no Ed, no one mentioned it, so he ignored Doc assuming Johnny wld introduce him but Carson didn't, so Parr eventually curiously asked.
Quit making human foibles into some genius move!!
Can anyone explain the Harry Reisner joke?
The kid watched a lot of tv and was just mimicking Harry Reasoner.......I am Harry reasoner is how he would start off his news anchor, not really all that funny but just cute story.
@@troynov1965 Oh got it. thanks
Paar -> Carson -> Letterman -> O’Brien
What did happen to Skitch Henderson?
He got into some legal trouble and had to serve some time.
Paar is a jerk.
Why?
@@christosdelos3318 His demeanor, his self-importance, his overly swagger style, he is arrogant beyond humor and his pompous and egotistical way.
Jack and Johnny look related to one another that's weird
Think he was having a hard time being the guest and not the host
Narcissist as the guest on this show.
So lame.
No wonder he was fired.
Don't think he was fired.
HE LEFT ON HIS OWN ACCORD.
Maybe just tired or got his feelings hurt somehow....he was a very sensitive fellow.
He left Tonight on his own accord.
NBC offered him a one hour weekly prime time show for more money,
@@user-kl7qe1zu5v
Thanks for the info.
And yet Paar's hosting the tonight show full time from 57 to 62 has been erased. IMDB only has him listed as guest hosting 4 episodes in 1956.
Paar actually looks in better shape than Johnny at this point. He could have easily been on the Tonight Show for 25 or 30 years.
The guy is a natural. You can see that Paar had the talent, communication and skill. Too bad he did not try to do another talk show. He was great. Fluid, fun and interesting. Almost like the collosal mistake of Pernell Roberts leaving Bonanza, Paar should have never let his show.
Paar returned in the early 70's with a late night talk show on ABC. Unfortunately it did not go over to well. Peggy Cass was his announcer on the show.
Jack Paar died January 27, 2004
Johnny Carson died January 23, 2005
