When i heard that the first time i thought that DeNiro himself used that in "Showtime" with Eddie Murphy. He plays that Cop who is forced to do this reality TV stuff and they try to improve his acting. And he is breathing like someone just saved him from drowning to show what he thinks of those acting techniques. Maybe some say that film is weak but it got a place in my heart. I love all his funny stuff.

Don was the very best. Great man, made everyone laugh, a true legend.

Rest in peace. Peace and Love from Cairo, Egypt.

The genuine love and affection Scorsese shows Don touching his arm every now and then when Don was obviously quite frail etc was amazing👍

I had the great fortune of seeing Rickles live towards the end of his life. He was hilarious and it was an honor to be in the same room.

Sure I've seen this episode before, about 4 times. All the others too. Carson appearances, Donahue, Letterman, Leno, Miller, etc. It's always the same. As I begin to watch, I think he couldn't have really been that funny. Or, no way I'll still find Don or this bit that funny. Then...he opens his mouth and I laugh loudly as if on-cue. I laugh again, at all of it straight through, for the -----dreth time. Then I begin to cry. For myself really, because he is gone. Don was one class act. Don Rickles just hit me my whole life in the head and in the heart. 99% of what I learned in show business I learned from Don. The other 1% I learned from everybody else. You are missed, friend.

Amazing how he still has that sharp comedic timing at 90 years old. One of the greatest of all time.
