Don Johnson Came Up with Nash Bridges Because Hunter S. Thompson Was Broke

[@lindacollins903]

Those eyes and dimples never change ♥️🔥 and he is such a good story teller

[@overanDownUnder]

Don Johnson is a cool dude, loved watching his shows with the family when I was younger.

[@karenling2106]

please welcome to the show don johnson don welcome to the show

[@NoName-hc4sb]

Don Johnson is like Whiskey - he‘s getting better the older he gets 😍

[@masterofallgoons]

I'm like whiskey too - I look like I've been aging in a barrel for 12 years

[@tontonjeannot6089]

I loved hating everyone in Knives Out. It was a great movie.

[@jordangerm]

Still got a mega watt smile

[@doctorthirteen5727]

@oregon 1961 Lol. Look at his filmography over the last several years.

[@mobprincessxoxo5758]

who are you telling? jon johnson looks better now! my god! nash bridges is still oh sooo HOT!!!!

[@franlooving4203]

He is so funny on his own-not scripted. I'm giggling and boy howdy is he beautiful at 71!!!

[@TheGoofy1932]

He was great in Knives Out. Always enjoyed him in everything he does. Hard to believe he's in his 70's.

[@kenster8270]

This is a pure delight hearing Don Johnson reminiscing about the olden days like a grandpa, and yet looking like a dad. He's lookin all sharp and energetic and in a contageously chirpy mood!

[@anomimeso7009]

looks like a dad because of his wealth, given. but those are surely grandpa eyes.

[@danieltolson5341]

“That t-shirt was just the front” 🤣 😆 😛

[@debbiedezwaan1563]

Have enjoyed everything he's done, from Miami Vice to Nash Bridges and all in between and beyond. He was so good in Django Unchained.

[@toniabowie5487]

Don't forget Watchmen

[@samanthab1923]

Love him but drew the line at Nash

[@melissaholley9448]

Harley & the Marlboro man is an 80s MUST.

[@mobprincessxoxo5758]

I love me some Nash bridges!

[@mobprincessxoxo5758]

@Isabella Dai yass! I love don in Nash bridges. Legit one of my fave shows! I heard there might be a reboot. Oh I hope so! It’ll be so nice to see don and cheech together again and the rest of the cast!

[@VinKohl]

I never get tired of hearing Hunter Thompson stories, especially from his friends that knew him best.

[@uwcb1]

I was at a bar in Chicago talking to the bartender about Hunter when this gorgeous woman next to me freaked out and demanded we stop mentioning HST. She was almost having a breakdown. Turns out she had been engaged to a famous golfer and was supposed to be married by Hunter on a property next to his in CO. Day of, Hunter decided a tree was in a bad place, so got some dynamite and blew it up. That caused a grass fire, and burned down the hand carved wooden trellis they were supposed to be married on. They split before the wedding was rescheduled. She blamed Hunter and DID NOT appreciate how much we laughed her story... Two bartenders I know who were massively into blow accidentally kicked Doc out of another bar in Chicago, but that’s another story..

[@VinKohl]

@@uwcb1 OMG, that's a great story...absolutely sounds like something Hunter would do! Thanks for the laugh!!!

[@kbloom8856]

Don Johnson is still so handsome. His television shows are amongst my favorites. I loved him with Cheech Marin in Nash Bridges.

[@maryminor8934]

Not only is Don Johnson has gotten better with age, he is such a sweet man. Plus he is still a great actor!

[@geoffreyfeinberg9792]

He's a legend. Hope he does more movies. Liked him in Django.

[@bowerbird7463]

Good luck to you Don Johnson. .. you're a true to your heart. Need more of you in America

[@jamesallred460]

That was really nice to hear about Hunter taking care of his sick animals. I always knew hunter was an animal lover but I never knew that story until now.

[@colleenshea2293]

Always glowing and happy forever ....

[@pdxbee1]

He's 71! Damn he looks good.

[@KenFerris]

You mean that his facelift and teeth implants enhance rather than detract as so many do.

[@JB-fd6gr]

This was a great interview/conversation! Thanks Seth & Don!

[@Brian_Boru]

Excellent actor. Always great when he shows up in a project. He's an American classic.

[@danellemills2918]

Not in particular a horse lover.. But loved in pursuit of honor.. Thanks for your work Mr. Johnson!

[@frankcapparelle6184]

Don, your a class act. Love to watch you work

[@pekkavalkonen1973]

Definitely the best actor/person ever, well done pal!

[@Govanmauler]

This dude is 71!!

[@mc76]

And if he has had some work done, I want the name of his plastic surgeon.

[@utubefreshie]

He is a hot 71!! But he's always been hot anyways... 😉

[@sunshine3914]

He’s always looked plastic to me, but I think he looks more real now.

[@lauriejones4507]

At 56, 71 doesn't look that old 🤣🤣 *Damn, hes aging better than expected!

[@utubefreshie]

@PeekabooRight. All these celebs have work done. Looks good and natural on him though.

[@pamelafolger8449]

Still has a Twinkle in his eye!😊❤

[@iamjarrettdean9358]

2 of my all time fav TV shows = Nash Bridges and Miami Vice 👍👍 #DonJohnson

[@inmaculadaconcepcion1600]

🙌🏽😍Love, Love , Love how well he looks. 😎Miami Vice was a drug, period. One of my faves and he is alive & healthy. 🤗 ✨♥️✨Love you, Don.✨🙏🏽

[@dieteduserpent1859]

I love this guy. Great actor. More is getting old more is great.

[@JulianGonzalez1974]

When I was in 6th grade, my mom would make me suits like Sonny would wear! Lots of linen, pastels and slip on shoes.

[@SouthernLord1989]

I actually enjoyed Nash Bridges. I wish they would add it to a streaming service.

[@rogue42bdf]

There’s a kerfuffle over money between the production company and Johnson, so that’s why it’s not on anywhere.

[@METALSAULGOODMAN]

@@rogue42bdf I thought don johnson ran the production company that had nash bridges

[@rogue42bdf]

@@METALSAULGOODMAN There was a partner company. Apparently everything has been settled though, so I don't know why it hasn't been added to a service. Google says it was available on CBS+, but it doesn't seem to be on the new Paramount+ that replaced it.

[@SC-gp7kt]

Miami Vice was such s great show . Nash was pretty good too I enjoyed both.

[@Freddio]

There’s a flamingo in the picture behind Don. 🦩😎

[@frankbalazs8816]

The Man!! God Bless

[@RoaroftheTiger]

... and what a generous "neighbor" you are ( ! ) - Don Johnson

[@bottleaire2082]

I often wondered if HST had some input on Bridges. I had read of Don hanging out with Hunter, and there were scenes that had the Thompson terminal sense of humor. Edit: I left an elk heart on Don's porch. Don't mention it to Nicholson.

[@heman5954]

Gonzo journalism pioneered by Hunter S.Thompson is the most honest, revealing journalism keeping powerful people in check.

[@kaleblundberg7479]

Someone should gonzo journalism us out of Syria.

[@heathersewell7328]

Don Johnson is a very great guy

[@debbiedezwaan1563]

Harley Davidson and The Marlborough Man is still one of my favourite movies. Then again it had this guy and Mickey Rourke so...

[@hdtv00]

Don is a fucking LEGEND.

[@Mater_Lachrymarum]

Jesus, it must have been fun to be friends with Hunter S. Thompson 😍

[@DOSkywalkR]

It's astonishing how well he ages. He looked worse in the 90's, but I think he had gained some weight, nowadays he looks like a slightly older Crockett. It would probably ruin Miami Vice (although it had some episodes that ruined it to begin with, like the one where he has amnesia and tries to kill Tubbs twice), but it would be interesting to see him again in something related to it.

[@DOSkywalkR]

@Sky Gardener good for you if you can appreciate it that way. To me it was kind of a betrayal to Crockett's integrity. How could anybody go back to trusting him after that, especially Tubbs? Also I agree that it's an interesting angle to look at with the whole "undercover persona takes over" thing, but it wasn't handled that well imho. And yes, the cinematography was great throughout the show.

[@nomoremicrotransactions3070]

"a boy and his dog" is all I can think of everytime I see this man haha

[@nathanhold4755]

well. at least she had good taste. that the only thing I have to think about.

[@DelightLovesMovies]

Don Johnson was so funny in Django Unchained.

[@samanthab1923]

Perfect with Jonah

[@crockett616]

What a nice guy! Clearly just enjoying his life so much. I wonder what Tubbs is up to... 😀

[@MrVikingsandra]

I love this guy!

[@nedludd7622]

I wonder how many viewers have even a slight idea about who Hunter Thompson was? I was living in Aspen in the early seventies when ski bums could still afford it, and I used to have drinks with Hunter at the Hotel Jerome. That was before "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" was published. He was no crazier than me. Later in the seventies, I was living in Las Vegas. There was a project to make his book into a film. It was denounced by an arts commentator on a local station. I called the station to ask to reply. To my astonishment, they were very receptive and asked me to send them a maybe 2 minute text, which I did. They accepted it with no changes. So I went on live telling, not reading my text. Everyone, including the commentator I responded to, thanked me and said I was rather good. They were all very nice. I guess I was ok for an amateur.

[@A.n0neeM0usee]

You were no amateur Sir, you drank with The Raoul Duke himself. You were destined to call in and disabuse that heathen. Good on you!

[@melaniebushby1974]

I'm one of your biggest fans u still look gorgeous don ❤️❤️❤️ ❤️ ❤️❤️😍😍😍❤️

[@rhondafortson5205]

WHY, WHY don't you mention TIN CUP? EVERYTHING DON JOHNSON DOES IS GOLD !!! LOVE DJ...EPIC, UNFORGETTABLE. DJ & PHILLIP MICHAEL THOMAS WERE/ARE PHENOMENAL..Then & Now!

[@rtiene23]

When he referenced a background in independent film, I assume he's talkign about "A Boy and His Dog" - it's worth checking out.

[@shaunacohen7630]

Such a great movie!

[@kindabluejazz]

One of my all time favorites - he was Mad Max before Mad Max.

[@samanthab1923]

That's what I knew him from.

[@michelekett8450]

Don Johnson is a gorgeous dude.

[@jkap34]

I honestly thought when Seth said Don Johnson was next, I just assumed it was Andy samberg doing an impression.

[@crazyalcayne]

Don is the man!

[@kindabluejazz]

'A Boy and His Dog' is one of my all time favorites - it was like Mad Max before Mad Max.

[@williamneal9076]

Tim McIntire did music and Voice of Blood. LQ Jones directed Harlan Ellison script.

[@johnmanning4097]

He had me laughing my ass off in the Movie Django (BIG DADDY) 😂🤣😅😆

[@chokin78]

wow didn't know these two were neighbors, fascinating!

[@jillhoskins2414]

My sister and I traveled from central Florida to south Florida, specifically to meet Don Johnson. Unfortunately, as my sister and I were sitting down to dinner at our ritzy hotel, the waiter informed us that "he could not give us Don Johnson tonight!" We got a kick out of that! We weren't insulted in the least! We didn't get to meet him, but the trip was still fun!

[@frankbijnens929]

I said it in the eighties, still the most handsome man in the world! 😃

[@anthonycampos8057]

If Nash Bridges come back, Stone Cold Steve Austin has to return as well.

We ran home every Friday night to watch this!

[@carmenhernandez5419]

I miss Miami vice

[@deborahfreedman333]

That Miami Vice style wasn't from Miami, it was from Los Angeles. All the clothing came from Sy Devore in the SF valley. Lenny Freedman (my late father-in-law) picked all the clothes that both of the lead actors wore.

[@sophiakrishnan2053]

That’s so cool to learn

[@beckymerchant4678]

Umm dude...Johnson wore a lot of Versace (and other Italian designers) on Miami Vice...Ferragamo shoes. The PRODUCER of the show decided how they should look and the costume department did the rest. The no socks and sleeves pulled up was Johnson's choices because it was hot. Devore style is more apparent in White Collar (look at how Neal dresses) and The Rat Pack (Sinatra, Davis, Martin, and etc.)

[@jeanmkaufmann]

I used to have the pink jacket in the 80s. Great style.

[@popeye697]

A table read with Michael Cera? I'd like to see that for sure

[@navyryder]

Don Johnson , still a good looking dude, he’s aging gracefully perhaps it could be due to that he doesn’t looked like he had any type of work done on his face!

[@punkrachmaninoff]

This story is about as cool as Lars selling his Basquiat collection.

Hunter was a god!!!

[@kittybear9693]

DAD & DON SHOW !

[@reneenicole1879]

He is STILL fine. Sheesh

[@frankcolumbo3447]

Commenters seem impressed with Johnson looking young. It's called extensive cosmetic surgery. If you look at him 15 years ago he was jowely and his eyes had gone. He does look good but let's save the compliments for those responsible..

[@courtiercamroy8256]

😄 yeah He had some amazing work done and it looks so natural

[@duaneraymond4252]
