Don Rickles on Charlie Rose

[@selftrue670]

After this interview, I'm left with this impression: Don Rickles is phenomenally funny; that's self evident. But, beyond that, he seems to be a fine and genuine person.

[@ianfleming9475]

I have no doubt he was a class act on and off stage.

[@charlesblack590]

I’ve seen mr rickles a few time My all time favorite. My only regret is that I was never close enough for him to insult me and my wife. Such a great person. RIP dear man.

[@richardcollins6684]

My Father passed away, I was in tears. That night, Don Rickles actually spoke about death of a friend. He stated I will miss my best friend forever. Don with fake crying saying he owed me so much money too! I met Don told him about my Dad passing and his jokes made me feel better. He asked, I am very sad to hear this. By the way! Did he owe you money too? I laughed! He will truly be missed in the world.

[@gerguil]

Everytime i see a video of Don, I can't resist watching it. Rip Don. U are very much missed.

[@ronwesterduin2471]

Don, you will be forever missed around the world. May you rest in piece.

[@hipsterabster]

"I don't tell jokes, I tell Attitude..." More than just a comedian.. We miss you, Don.

[@fanboy2015]

It's nice hearing Rickles not doing his act, but just talking. Good interview.

[@Facetimer864]

I really miss Don, and I equally miss Charlie Rose interviews

[@josephconsoli4128]

Well said. I always want to hear him tell his story, but he usually drifted over to humor. This was very insightful to a wonderful man that made me laugh my entire life. Comedians from this era will never be replaced.

Charlie Rose makes this unwatchable. What an idiot. Was he drunk?

This was cool... A very rare chance to hear Rickles actually speak and not cracking jokes the entire time. Usually you couldn't get two serious sentences out of the man because he was always on. He did everything he wanted to do, always did things his own way no matter what anyone else said, and had one hell of a life by the time he died at 90. Many of us will only have a small fraction of the type of experiences this man had. Lucky guy. And funny as hell.

[@yambo59]

Im 57 and an only child with no family now and I can remember watching Don far back as I can remember, even on the old Andy Griffith show in the early 60's. When one of the old guard like this goes I swear I feel emotional like ive lost a dear friend or family member. So many memories of him on the Dean Martin Roasts, numerous appearances on so many shows, and on Johnny Carson including the famous time he subbed for Johnny one night and broke his cherished cigarette box-lol Carson came back the next nite, asked if Rickles had done it and acting mad took the whole Camera crew, completely left his own studio and walked in on filming of Dons show 'CPO Sharkey" and started in on him - Don dropped to his knees at Johhnys feet calling Carson Mr. NBC begging him for mercy-LOL I swear I teared up when I heard about Dons passing, so many laughs for so many decades and such a genuinely nice guy in real life. He was part of my lifetime TV family so to speak and I deeply mourn his passing, one less icon among us - God Bless you Don Rickles, RIP.

Don Rickles the king of Satire! 😁 The man was always a favorite of mine. 🌹

Don is a smart intellegent genius and very well spoken

iv watched all Don Rickles "interviews ". none compares to Charlie Rose. never heard Rickles so calm, better stories

[@rexxgarvin5313]

Wow! Just think, ''They'' took Charlie away from us. I love his interviewing style. Always have. Him and Tavis Smiley. Sad......CHARLIE is Awesome! Thank you Mr. Rickles! You are and were A True Gift Of Gut bucket Uncut Laughter! You are Of The Humorous off the Hook ''Unique''.......Indeed

[@jakre10]

Don Rickles was one of a kind. There will never be another like him. I could not imagine his brand of humor being done today, people are just too sensitive and need to get over themselves. Loved him. Charlie Rose, not so much

[@ronniebishop2496]

I saw Don at the Sahara in the Congo room and he got my black record producer up on stage. The door man kept telling us to come back until I said hey we want pretty good seats, and he put us right in front so Don could see John Perry lol. And he sent over a bottle of champagne.

[@iaintmadatcha]

Im black but i actually loved this guy because of his racist jokes lol its ironic i know but u can blatantly see he done it to say yes we are all different from different backgrounds, lets joke and laugh amongst each other. You could see his intentions were good hes a legend straight up

[@tommyhaynes521]

I totally agree . I'm probably very liberal but when it comes to humor I say anything goes, if it's funny , it's funny. Different groups have different characteristics what's wrong with pointing that out ? Assuming you're not doing it in a mean way. The world will be very boring if we pretend we are all the same , we're not.

He was one in a million. His era had talent. Real real talent. Saw him years back and he was up there in age but sharp as a tac. You can tell he's a beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️ human being. Humor is what gets us through this tough journey. He's missed. His entire crew is missed.. Dean Martin Frank Sinatra..Jerry Lewis....Dom DeLouise. It was classic to see him crack up when Foster Brooks came on Dean's Roasts

[@victorjoseph8948]

Don was and still is the greatest ! miss his loving humour

[@DamnSkippy1]

I appreciate the fact, you included the date this was aired in your description. Too many people fail to provide this important detail with the videos they post. The date provides an important context to the overall framework of what is being presented.

[@wendileona]

Agreed. This is one of my biggest peeves on KZbin next to converting old footage that was filmed/video taped in 4:3 ration and "wide screening" it to 16:9 and chopping the top and bottom of the video, drives me nuts. I add the year in the title, then go into detail in the description. .::Gary

[@tubularbill]

One of a kind. Great memories watching him on the Tonight Show w Johnny Carson.

[@swtpaige1004]

This is the most serious side of the legend Don that I’ve ever watched and he still the funniest! 😂❤

[@thomasthomas2418]

Rickles was so reflective here. He had a wonderful grace to his soul, diametrically opposed to his performing persona.Very touching, in spite of Charlie Rose.

[@MichaelSimmons.]

I wish he hadn't interrupted Don, when he started talking about Dean Martin. I would have liked to hear more about him. Don, as always, was great.

Such a good interview. Rarely see Don this genuine.

[@MrStewbee]

I regret that I never got to see this master in person..RIP Mr Wartmh one of a kind.

[@SewerRatID]

I thought he did a tremendous job. Do you realize how much ground he covered in this interview? They talked about many, many facets of Don's life. More than any other interview I've found with the exception of maybe Tom Snyder. I'm a HUGE Rickles fan, but let's be honest, when a host let Don go they were lucky to cover two or three questions. Charlie let him answer each question, but kept it moving and didn't let him keep ad-libbing off the same question. From an entertainment perspective his appearances in Carson and Letterman were much better, but as far as candid interviews go this one is near the top.

[@SaintForeverBlue]

Wonderful. Delightful! Bravo e bravi!! Rickles and Rose connected so well!

[@georgesenda1952]

Thank God this was the second comment I saw. I stopped the vid 11 minutes in because I'm almost dumbfounded how a seasoned interviewer could be so oblivious to how much he destroying this interview. It's expected to laugh at Don's answers but Charlie is actually laughing and cutting him off to make his own little in funny quips effectively stopping Don in his tracks.

And once you get Charlie laughing he can’t stop. He’ll laugh at anything. He was once interviewing an economist and he couldn’t stop laughing.

Charming man The story about " calling New York" was chilling. I found it slightly strange that when Don was asked who made him laugh he really took his time, mentioning some heavyweights. I was expecting to hear the name of big hitter Jackie Mason ( who I understand fell foul of Sinatra) but it was as if he wasn't even on Don's radar.

Charlie Rose, sorry to say destroyed this interview. He's like he is coked up or something. Non stop interruptions and talking over Rickles. Every single answer was interrupted. Every single one. He seemed to just want to hear his own voice and not the person he was interviewing. Rickles obviously noticed and I believe gave him a little dig with the line "Like you, you're a great interviewer Charlie, you know when to jump in" :)
