I agree totally but it was a different time we lived in. Not sure if better or not. As the old saying goes " ignorance is bliss". Too bad we can't have actual factual news shows and then other programming. When Reagan shut down the FCC ruling that news channels had to provide truthful news instead of Fox Entertainment bs. Reagan also helped Rupert Murdoch get his US citizenship so he could start the Conservative/Republican/rich Oligarchs " news channel" to spread their propaganda. So much of today's problems goback to the Reagan Administration such as military hardware spending and trickle down economics that made the rich extremely richer faster and as we've seen the rich have so many tax loopholes that they don't pay taxes. I on the other hand paid 36 cents out of every dollar I made and my best year was 365 straight 12 hour days. I made 145,000 and never saw much of a tax refund.

I miss Jonathan Winters, my first real love of a comedian. Always great anticipation when he was scheduled for The Tonight Show. With him the best part of any story was the long and hilarious journey to the punch line.
BIG TIME understatement. Though the late, great Robin Williams routinely would invoke Jonathan Winters and called him "The King" as few, if any, could tell a funny story like Jonathan. May sound cliche, but the saying THEY DON'T MAKE 'EM LIKE THAT ANYMORE sure does apply to Jonathan Winters.
When I was a kid, we were at a restaurant in Malibu and Mr. Winters came up to our table to say hello and put on a five minute impromptu show with his take out order in his hands. We were in stitches. I'll always cherish that memory.
I had seen Jonathan Winters only as a comedian. However, he is stunningly good playing against type in a Twilight Zone episode called "A Game of Pool" with the great Jack Klugman. His character was James "Fats" Brown. Was so startling to see him as dramatic actor. Terrific. Great comic, great actor.
Robin Williams was a genius of course, but he also admitted his reverence for Jonathon, as a mentor. 2 originals with brains normal humans can not keep up with. In our lifetime, we will not see a match for either one. May they both Rest in Peace
Now my stomach hurts from laughing so hard. I use to watch Carson and always enjoyed when Jonathan Winters was on. Guaranteed laughter till it hurt. RIP you guys and thanks for the laughs.
Comedic genius no doubt with the best setup guy ever... Johnny Carson. Johnny could make an introverted accountant the most interesting person of the evening.
This never gets old. This guy is so funny and quirky he tells the greatest stories , I've seen every appearance he made and laugh my ass off. I've seen them several times and one of the funniest is the story about Christmas at his house and having chickens on his 2 acres of property. His comedy is like that of a mad scientist , you never knew where he was going! A classic comedian , along with Rickles and Dangerfield. His roast of Frank Sinatra is also hilarious! I occasionally go back and watch these appearance's when I want to take my mind off of the insanity going on in the country....
Johnathan Winters was one of the greatest ad lib comedians, if not the greatest comedians of all time. I could watch and listen to him all day. Lowndes Butler
There are a select few comedians and celebrities you can tell Johnny likes, enjoys, and admires. JW was one of them. There's a depth to Winters and an undercurrent of sadness that makes his comedy so remarkable.
Johnny loved and admired Winters. They'd known each other back in the 50's when Winters was a lot more wild and a drinker, raising hell together. In later years, Winters was always unofficially "on call" for Johnny if a Tonight Show guest had to cancel - he'd just drive down from Santa Barbara and do an impromptu show to fill in.
I totally agree! Like Winters, I thought Robin Williams was a genius too and a great actor as well, but I never liked Robins language and crudeness. I think what makes Jonathon superior is that for all his zaniness he knew when to put on the brakes. He could be hilarious without using profanity or vulgarity to shock or embarass his audience into laughing. I don't think Robin quite knew how to do that. With Robin you just opened the cage door and held on until he exhausted himself!
Johnathan Winters , shoulda got an Oscar in it's a mad mad mad mad ? Mad world , and yea always great whenever you saw him always a surprise crazy guy n o course Johnny Carson wasn't any slouch either always had great people on , well let's just say you know , the 60s-70s best years for tv n comedy though at the time you know we didn't think it was so great but lokkin from 80s on worlds just gone go hell last ,40 yrs or so , guess that means I'm just a grumpy old guy now , enjoy your youth young people as I see things now don't think it'll get better .it hasn't so far except old shows n movies got better with age
For those who don't find Winters funny, there are plenty of other videos to make your presence known on. You either "get" him or you don't. Let us enjoy without your ignorant input. As a young kid, I saw him the first time, and could NEVER get enough. Watched him any chance I got. And still laughing today.
There’s no one better than Jonathan Winters. I love the way his mind works. Up there with the greatest humorists of all time-Jack Benny, George Carlin, Bob Newhart, Bob & Ray…
Watching Jonathan Winters even for a few minutes tells you why he was a role model for Robin Williams. 35 years or so later, this is still funny as [word I cannot use]. What am amazing mind.
It really hurts my soul to listen to Johnny cough, while knowing that he is going to die because of his chain smoking. He will never be forgotten and I´m gratefull for every single video here on YT about him. BR from Germany.
@@modernretroradio993 I think that the shows starting at the end of the 80´s show him coughing more in general.Especially if he has a hillarious guest like Don Rickles.
Jonathan Winters is the greatest in my opinion. Number 1 next to Robin Williams (RIP to both). I remember when Winters came on the show one time and brought the navy hat and showed it to Carson, I had just recovered from a cough and I caught it again cause I was laughing non stop that night, he just went full on Jonathan Winters mode, one after another after another. Good times.
Carson didn’t really need to prepare questions. He just let Winters do his comedy. And there was never a second of a silent dull moment. Winters was brilliant.
Jonathan Winters and so many, like Buddy Hackett, Robin Williams and others on the Carson show were great story tellers and comics... I go all the way back to the first Tonight Show with Steve Allen, the best ever really.... Good memories of times gone by.
Even as a kid I had a different sense of humor and I remember staying up late to watch Jonathan Winters. He was brilliant. Then when he was on Mork and Mindy he stole the show and stealing the show from the likes of Robin Williams was no small feat.
I don't think he really "stole the show" From Robin. Jonathon was one of Robin's idols and I think they bounced off one another like nuclear chain reaction! I heard that they had a heck of a time keeping Robin and Jonathon on script when producing the show, that they kind of gave up and let them just improvise. They were such kindred souls.

Me too.
Brings happy tears to my eyes. 😂
This is the gold that needs to be shown in today’s improv classes.
Winters' ability to quickly jump from silly face back to neutral face just as the punchline hits is like a comedy double act.
@OfficialIntegza You sound like a foreign scammer.
"I was writing from 'The Place.' " (Mental Hospital) 😅😅😅

They can never top these shows
You can tell Johnny Carson real loved Jonathan Winters. Always cracked him up!

That's priceless!
He was a National Treasure.
His comedy is classic and lasting since it's not topical. 100 years from now, people will tune in when they need a laugh.
No cussing no F bombs, pure talent.
From the moment he started talking,I was laughing all the way 😂😂
He was a gem!

Stephen Wright did. Look at some old videos of Wright on Carson. He's dying.

Johnny would never make it about himself and would just let the guest shine.

Unlike the hosts today. Fallon thinks that he is the show. He’s not.
Comedic genius no doubt with the best setup guy ever... Johnny Carson. Johnny could make an introverted accountant the most interesting person of the evening.
Cool subtle thing of Winters, a Marine grunt during WW2, saluting McMahon, a Marine officer who served as a pilot in WW2 and Korea.
Winters used to go to Pendleton fairly often, saw a photo of him in a Smoky Bear hat with some DIs.
@@jdgoade1306Campaign cover.

He was a true comedian because he was spontaneous not scripted. 😆

I miss him very much….🥲
A comedian I grew up with in the fifties and still laugh at in 2023. One of a kind. Thank you for great clips.
This is just a comedy gem. I was laughing so hard the tears were running.
Carson made interviewing people look so easy! How Winters keeps the story with so many digressions is really remarkable!
Our entire household just loved Jonathan Winters. We had one of his comedy albums and wore it out from repeated use. Funny, funny man
GENIUS...............And I`ve seen this at least 50 times, STILL laugh out loud !
Jonny Winters was absolutely the best of the very best!
These were tge best of days, and Winters is positively on fire in this. Hilarious.

Yes, I hope finally he has.
