Dick Cavett Charlie Rose 2011

[@zovalentine7305]

Dick Cavett, legend 💖 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 He has defined excellence in the interview format !!!!

[@LenHummelChannel]

This man was one of the quickest wits and best conversationalists that was ever on the tube. I rate him & Paar as the two greatest talk show hosts ever.

[@jubalcalif9100]

So well said & well put ! With Cavett and Paar, it was about having a real actual conversation.

[@January.]

AGREE

[@MyTestimony]

I'm fascinated by this guy. He may be the most underrated "talk show" host ever.

[@devmartin7427]

He really seems to be. I never heard of him until a couple of months ago he started coming up in YT recs. Seems like a lot of history was made on his show. Yet all your hear about is Johnny.

[@testprepdojo9729]

Underrated in that there are 500 million videos of him being honored as being the best talk show host ever? 😂

[@gabrielfigueroa5654]

Underrated??? Wow. Why? Because you say that?

[@jimmycakes7158]

@@gabrielfigueroa5654 it's a way for people to feel less informed. They find out about something way after it happened then they say underrated

[@itannoysme3348]

Underrated is just another overused Millennial word, like "literally."

[@Nautilus1972]

He interviewed the biggest and brightest, and they all respected him, most notably Welles and Brando.

[@duwomaiishgabrielle9498]

Great Interview, 👍🏽👍🏼👍🏽👍🏼👍🏽👍🏼

[@therealzilch]

There were lots of great talk shows. But Dick Cavett was the best.

[@hayleyannamathieson7261]

I am currently watching all his shows. Brilliant format. He was a superb interviewer..

[@SashaLaurenAuthor]

I'm watching all his interviews too.

[@LaurelDenver]

The thing about Cavett is, his format was the great thing. Just have a show where there is one guest for the whole hour. Or two. And all they do is talk. None of the stupid Fallon game show gimmicks. Just talk. It's really the format that was great. I adore Cavett, but it's the format we miss.

[@jonol810]

Me too. He was (is) such an intelligent, humble interviewer. He was utterly professional in his research but also in reading the reactions of his guests, who were often so famous that they often had every reason to be very guarded, so that he could defuse anything and bring out the best in them for the context. Pretty special guy - and there's really been no one like him since, more is the pity.

[@jamsid33]

I agree the format was great but it cant work today because people nowadays have the attention span of a nat, at least that is what producers and directors think \

[@willrich3908]

Ben Fitz I think the producers are terrified of losing peoples attention - but a lot of people are able to follow Cavett type stuff. The trouble is there are no performers like Welles or Brando or Marx.

[@OrphanSeasun]

Give Cavett some credit - he *was* the format (to paraphrase Mcluhan) - Fallon would have suited that format like an overweight gorilla wearing a plus-size condom.

[@rherman1966]

To OrphanSeasun: The first part of your statement is true: producers and executives do seem to have given up on long-form discussion, possibly due to the loss of a captive audience because of the proliferation of different venues. However, it is not at all true that there are no longer genuinely intellectual and truly interesting celebrities willing to open up. Some outstanding examples in my mind include Tom Hanks, Alec Baldwin, Sara Silverman, David Mitchell, John Hodgman, Marc Maron, Anthony Bourdain. There are many others whom I suspect fit this category, but are not showcased because they're not expected to. I believe one reason such people don't easily come to mind is that the top of the entertainment industry is much better now at manufacturing and promoting talent and do not have to rely on people of true genius to come up with content; manufactured celebrity drowns out those who are truly talented.

[@ucctgg]

Charlie was such a good interviewer.

[@fahimhyder4738]

Great interview gentlemen, Mr. Rose and Mr. Cavett. I thank you so very much.

[@duwomaiishgabrielle9498]

Wow, Dick Cavett, my favorite talk show host of all time, was suffering depression, wow! ♥️👍🏼👍🏽💕🙏❤️ such a bright mind, so funny! I love all of his showsM.

[@Rpaulbroker]

Nobody could do a one and one interview better than Charlie Rose. When you were on his show , you know you had made it.

[@graxjpg]

Nobody except dick cavett lol

[@AllenMQuinn]

I can't believe how young he looks. He's in his '70s here and he could easily pass for '50s.

[@timowthie]

Also the beard really suits him.

[@Sam-qc6sz]

Nah I don't think I see it as a good looking 70's here

[@raymondkb2nzo788]

He is the best talk show host

[@OutyMan]

Dick Cavett's show was before my time, but I was watching his interview with Janis Joplin and was really impressed with the interaction. I came to this video to see a little more of this man. I feel like I could learn a lot about engaging with people by watching him.

[@OutyMan]

I've been looking for an intelligent, interesting man like Dick Cavett my whole life.

[@pleasequietdown8946]

I wish it was Dick Cavett interviewing Dick Cavett instead. A distinct trademark of his show was hearing the guest's voice.

[@maxbowie6074]

I couldn't agree more. Cavett was a master of the art. Rose tends to interject far too often, and not to good effect. He could learn a hell of a lot from Cavett.

[@kristinpfanku3927]

Wow, Cavett has aged well.

[@jubalcalif9100]

As I do when I take off my hat, you make a good point ! He's always been handsome, fit & trim ! Bless his heart !

[@isabeldiezlangre9411]

Yo le recuerdo en sus entrevistas a Rudolf Nureyev, muy agradable y simpático. Nos hacia reír con sus sutiles preguntas y no menos hábiles las respuestas de Nureyev.

[@Bubbalovecats]

LEGEND !!!!

[@pho3nix-]

A great man.

[@philsarkol6443]

Good conversation...!

[@inezvelasco]

As a pro I'm sure Cavett has developed a tool bag of comebacks and quotes for various occasions and is delighted when an occasion presents itself for just right one. You'd be crazy to go in front of any audience without any rehearsal after all of course. Space is definitely there though for new things to happen, and as he observed about Groucho the speaker is as surprised as anyone else. The self-effacement, and perhaps gosh-wow fannish starry-eyedness, are Cavett's saving graces from being insufferably pompous. Well, I did get the book (and two of the DVD sets), and it's all very enjoyable!

[@theolamp5312]

[@felixthelmocevallosmorales41]

Charles Peete "Charlie" Rose, Jr. (Henderson, Carolina del Norte; 5 de enero de 1942) es un locutor y periodista de la televisión estadounidense. Desde 1991 ha sido anfitrión de Charlie Rose, un programa de entrevistas transmitido nacionalmente por la PBS desde 1993. También trabaja en This Morning de CBS, desde enero de 2012. Rose, junto con Lara Logan, ha sido anfitrión del revivido clásico de la CBS Person to Person, un programa de noticias en el que las celebridades son entrevistadas en sus hogares, mientras que Edward R. Murrow fue originalmente su anfitrión de 1953 a 1961.

[@rr7firefly]

Cavett has courageously dealt with bouts of clinical depression, an illness that first affected him as a freshman at Yale. In 1980 he experienced what he characterized as his "biggest depressive episode". While on board an SST before take off, Cavett broke out into a sweat and became agitated. He was removed from the plane and taken to Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York City, where he later underwent electroconvulsive therapy.

[@albertstrickland2689]

He had the best talk show on TV ever... because he simply let the famous guest talk and didn't interrupt them... I find his book "Talk Host" boring as hell except for a few insights into John Wayne... For Wayne was nothing like the man he portrayed on the screen. Wayne was an intellectual, and lover of music and art and a very kind person. Most of this book is just rambling this and that mostly of his affection for Carson and Groucho Marx

[@noam65]

The point about him being an intellectual, I disagree with him, as I think he is. I would modify that by saying he is an interesting intellectual, who can make others become more interesting, even when, or especially when discussing mundane things.

[@melissaking6019]

What was the original air date for Cavett?

[@RaymondHng]

_The Dick Cavett Show_ was the title of several talk shows hosted by Dick Cavett on various television networks, including: ABC daytime, (March 4, 1968-January 24, 1969) originally titled _This Morning _ ABC prime time, Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Fridays (May 26 - September 19, 1969) ABC late night (December 29, 1969 - January 1, 1975) CBS prime time, Saturdays (August 16 - September 6, 1975; this version was actually more of a variety show) PBS, early evenings, weeknights (October 10, 1977 - October 8, 1982) USA Network prime time (September 30, 1985 - September 23, 1986) ABC late night, Tuesdays & Wednesday nights (September 22 - December 30, 1986) CNBC (April 17, 1989 - January 26, 1996) TCM (2006-2007)

[@joripage1]

The hosts on talk shows today are immature and just silly, and the guests worse. Where are the authors like a Capote or a Mailer or actors like an Orsen Wells or Hepburn. Even a boxer like Ali was witty and interesting. The talk shows now are so pathetically bad I don't even turn them on anymore.

[@bornbillsmith]

Your comment is interesting You state how bad they are and then state you don't even turn it on. If they are so bad it wouldn't even occur to me that you would even think of turning it on. i Disagree. I do watch them even when I know the conversation are fake. I liked Ferguson because he is witty.but I know the lines he says are not spontaneous and were all written either for him or by him.before the show. He always started the interview the same way and he would casualty say some meaningless thing like you were on vacation and it would lead to some witty comment. If the witty comment was planned then the whole conversation was planned. So I know it's fake but I still like it I agree Cavett was great and he had a show where the conversations were authentic. He states he wasn't a intellectual but since I'm not that was a good thing. He was and is intelligent but so was Carson. A lot of the time they even had the same type of guest. Wells and Hepburn were on Carson as well. The difference was that Carson was interested in giving his audience a pure entertainment experience and Cavett was more into communications and he was very good at it. I liked Carson but I felt that the shows after a while just became too repetitive I didn't feel that way with Cavett. so I usually ended up watching him.

[@joripage1]

What I meant when I said, "I don't even turn them on anymore," is, I tried watching them and wish I could watch them but they are unwatchable. For me at least.

[@geniusmchaggis]

bornbillsmith good comment bornbill. i have a question about when you said: "I liked Ferguson because he is witty.but I know the lines he says are not spontaneous and were all written either for him or by him.before the show." which lines? his questions and responses? the interview itself? the monologue?

[@vinayseth1114]

I find that a lot of people in the 20th century got into celebrity-dom with the adolescent motivation to get girls :D ....From Jack Nicholson (I don't remember his exact statement) to Dick Cavett to Rock-stars! The internet must have changed things a lot- I mean 'celebrity' today just means dumb and shallow for the most part

[@cloudincloudout]

Vinay Seth I also read in Bruce Lee's biography that impressing girls was his main motivation to become a celebrity

[@vinayseth1114]

ahmed barakat oh wow- Bruce Lee?? Really?? Haha- It's so hard to imagine the same guy famous for that quote on water to have had such a motivation for stardom- but ya I guess times were different back then- nowadays you're already 'famous' through social media- So fame is cheap today. Hence the lesser demand. Thanks for sharing the info :)

[@colinzeta1985]

+Vinay Seth The amazing part was Cavett didn't even care about rock stars the question was asked by Alec Baldwin in a previous interview. He said he didn't like rock music so someone like Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin would be like someone in there 30's/40's meeting some big name today (Cavett was 32 at the time when he started). From understanding more about him it was the old guys who really meant a lot.

[@vinayseth1114]

+Colin Zeta Hmm that seems reasonable.

[@MrSmartass89]

Groucho and Dick Cavett were friends. Groucho had suffered a stroke in 1970 Dick wasn't being exploitive, he was being respectful. Check out when Dick had Groucho on his show in 1969 and you will see a big difference in Groucho's persona. Groucho was already 79 years old by the time the 1969 show aired.
