Burt Reynolds Gets a Cake From Johnny for His 40th Birthday | Carson Tonight Show

[@pmafterdark]

How old I felt when I turned 40, now what I wouldn't do to be 40 lol. Happy Birthday Burt! 🎂

I felt old as soon as I turned 18 😢 now I'm 26 and feel like it's too late for me.. age is a weird thing.

[@hollywoodharriet13]

@@J35Y1 I remember turning 20 and not liking leaving the teen years (sugar mountain) but the future held many adventures. It is never too late. Went back to school at 40. Finally got married when I was 46! Still married and enjoying life! Of course many times it is not easy and it is not fun. A lot has to do with how I react to changes and difficulties. Believe me. You have much adventure to look forward to. Draw close to God, eat clean, keep moving and laughing.

1976. The year I graduated high school. 😊 It feels a million years ago.

[@JanMartin-m3j]

Really here is the thing dear though I am telling everyone I am 33 this year I am shaving off fifteen years off my actual age and to me also feels like a million years ago when I was delivered from Macy's New York to a hospital in Jamaica so that is why I am keeping 33 my age this year and February next year 34 etc

@Johnny Carson, could we please have the full shows of these!??🙏 I'm wondering when more full shows are going to be released 🤔 And with the studio 🎙 commercials that Doc and Ed did. I always enjoy the original broadcasts as they were with original openings and closings. I know the only thing they're struggling to get cleared mostly is film 🎥 🎞 clips when the guests plug a movie or TV show. But that's okay. But I definitely want more full, complete shows intact. Especially any existing rare full shows and footage from the 60's and early 70's Thanks keep up the great work. Hopefully, I can get a response back from this channel about their future plans and what's going on

[@ArtificialDreamsAD]

I like when they had all the guests on at the same time as they came out. Allowed for more chemistry on stage.

Burt was down to earth, helped others with acting. The Bandit movies were the best. Carson, always smooth, funny. Back when ppl got entertainment instead of filth & trash talk.

[@karenfryberger4260]

"In 1946, Reynolds launched an ad campaign with the slogan, 'More doctors smoke Camels than any other cigarette.' They'd solicited this 'finding' by giving doctors a free carton of Camel cigarettes, and then asking what brand they smoked." I remember as a child seeing full page ads featuring a "doctor" and the slogan "9 out of 10 doctors recommend Camel cigarettes!" My mother used to say the reason pubic ashtrays had sand for extinguishing cigarettes was to "make the Camels feel at home." Different times.

There´s a Burt Reynolds interview on the Johnny Carson archive website from the early 80's and Burt appeared with his real hair for the first time on the "Tonight Show". He combed his hair to the front but he looked very good. Believe it or not but he didn´t need a hairpiece because he had hair. The problem was it was thin but he looked good. Maye the Johnny Carson archive will post the interview with his real hair some day here.
