Joan Rivers interviewed by Carson Lady Di Wedding

Welcome! These comedy clips are from a large video collection that is now being converted from VHS/Beta to digital. There is some viewing quality loss from the original video source due to the age of the tapes, but the performances are preserved and still a joy to view.

[@chevydude658]

Joan was truly one of THE greatest comedians. To hold your own with Carson is proof positive that she was just great. I loved her.

[@adriancolon8435]

The funniest woman to ever live ❤️👑🎤

[@Anita_Bath]

Their banter was top notch

[@nonenoneonenonenone]

Pretty amazing. She just keeps bringing the level up and up. It's not the jokes that are funny, it's her.

[@flenif2247]

The jokes ARE funny.

[@robertdiotalevi285]

The greats are funny and the jokes are great!

[@atrocchia]

She was a brilliant woman.

[@christiancisco7444]

I died when she made the horse noises and stomped her leg! She's so funny! You're right it's not the jokes it's her for sure!

[@Progbassist]

Her personality makes the jokes funnier. Same goes for other old time comics like Don Rickles or Rodney Dangerfield.

[@jesl3054]

Damnnn still making me cackle in 2023 what a fuckin legend! Hats off to you maam

[@salemfathi2532]

She is a riot, and it is such a joy to see dear Johnny laugh so heartily

[@ceciliapreziose3783]

This woman is the definition of COMEDY..........

[@thezmanchar]

A lot of people miss her… she did things no one knew about. She gave money to every charity, she served food to the homeless at thanksgiving and gave money for food banks.

[@andrahunsaker4781]

I didn’t know that, but I am not surprised. She seemed like a really kind person underneath all those jokes and funny remarks. 💗🌸💗🙏

[@Shellbee22]

She was the BEST 😂😂😂😂

[@manbtm1]

Just priceless, why can’t we ever see anything like this today, it just isn’t there unfortunately

[@mildredhighcock7333]

America has made everyone too scared to say anything

[@barbraseville8984]

Google Kathy Griffin.

[@robo6863]

​@@barbraseville8984kath y Griffin could not even hold a match to this woman's farts. This woman is the closest thing to perfection.

[@dennispearson871]

This Had To Be One Of The Greatest Summit Meetings Between These 2 Giants !!...The Chemistry And Flow Between These 2 Was Epic !!...Carson Was Renowned ( Among Fellow Comics) As Being One of The Greatest Straight Men in The Business . Here Johnny Sets Rivers Up For Rapid Fire Brilliance !!

[@SaxonC]

I love when she compared Princess Anne to a horse! lol

[@deldee]

IKR. King Charles has a sense of humour. Cos he was good friends with Joan, even after these jokes.

[@annchovey2089]

Lots of admiration for Princess Anne - the Spare before Harry.

[@thezmanchar]

That was funny, and priceless. but to princess Ann she would take it as a compliment. Princess Ann loved Joan and so does Charles. She had pictures of him with her in several frames on her piano. Princess Di was at her New York apartment for a party after she divorced Charles.

[@andyc1175]

When Joan gets going she's like a firecracker.

[@Happy_HIbiscus]

dude, she is funny as hell !

[@rcaive0875]

"He's gonna be King..." ...in 42 years!

[@jeffreyjeziorski1480]

How are you feeling this morning, mummy? Still good, huh? (Damn)

[@eddiestanley135]

Sort of sureal, Joan, Johnny, Diana, the queen, no longer with us. Great being able to relive these moments.

[@kevineh]

Yeah, and them talking about Charles being king someday, 41 years before

[@KingQueen0]

Princess of WHALES😭😭😭

[@arikthompson5495]

RIP Joan Rivers.

[@pam0626]

Joan was actually friends with Prince Charles.

[@dhdisprsmith2296]

She was great! She and Johnnie were so close, it’s too bad they ended like they did.

[@buddmannable]

Love you Joannie!!

[@teresapflaumer5717]

11:49. "I LIKE TAMPONS!"

[@jeffreyjeziorski1480]

She spun Carson around in his chair with that one.

[@joshuag7207]

She was an absolute savage! I miss her

[@danielrosas5685]

TODAY 2023 looking at this clip of Joan talking about plastic surgery. So funny. Sadly she died doing a touch up on plastic surgery. We miss her wit and sharp jokes. And may God help and heal everyone AMEN SHALOM ALELUYA

[@Skullkidjynx]

This is not true. It was not plastic surgery it was a medically necessary throat surgery

[@rtfe83able]

Frigging Hilarious! RIP Joan Rivers, making them laugh in Heaven!

[@kimthomas8717]

Loved Joan rivers 🩷💜🩷

[@carlozabbia1157]

Joan Rivers was the best.

[@4seasons546]

❤ 🎉 Very funny this is one of her best 😂

[@biff5856]

Welcome home S.S. Saratoga. Bwahaha

[@joncampos-cw2tk]

I feel so old because I understood all the jokes.

[@michellelekas211]

(:

[@sallypatrick5762]

I do too❤

[@mral8145]

😂 I didn’t understand the John derek reference. The rest, I got!

[@joe-zj8js]

She had a formula about her wedding night, not being wanted or her body. The jokes changed but were always actual lol. I lost it when she said her bath toys were a toaster and a radio.😂

[@kerrybaker723]

She was SO FUNNY! 😂🥰

[@topshelf706]

Best ever!

[@felixthelmocevallosmorales41]

John William Carson (Corning, Iowa; 23 de octubre de 1925 - West Hollywood, California; 23 de enero de 2005) fue un presentador, comediante, escritor y productor de televisión estadounidense. 98 AÑOS 79 AÑOS 19 AÑOS.

[@justynjonn]

That look!

[@RobertHiguera-zi6tu]

Joan Rivers really cracks up Johnny Carson

[@karenokeane6461]

Those were the days......

[@edwardsmith3576]

What a dress!

[@billtrevino2539]

Sooooooo very!!! 😂😂😂

[@davidobrien4559]

And how amazing it turned out that she was actually invited to Charles and Camilla’s wedding.

[@mangedesfleurs]

Laugh... Paid...

[@thedecider1984]

😂😂😂😂

[@robertdiotalevi285]

Wind Joanie up and wait for the explosion!

[@pennybenton5607]

Gosh i miss Joan. I can only imagine how she would feel about todays politics.

[@leonardshevlin7260]

Such a struggle to get it going but she didn't quit. She repeated jokes that didn't hit to give the audience a second chance.

[@IPULCOLUMBIA]

Wow Dolly Parton lost a lot of weight!

[@artygunnar]

see, I'm not a sexist because I find Joan Rivers hilarious, but Amy Schumer isn't!

[@ruthnail915]

Lol. Amy talks about the vagina way too much. Gross 🤮

[@beech5397]

Amy steals her jokes so unoriginal

[@michellelekas211]

Joan is the best

[@jerrylee8261]

I like Amy. She always makes me laugh.

[@jerrylee8261]

One of my favorite comedians(not gonna spell the feminine version). I liked her own show but it caused a rift with Johnny and didn't last long. She insisted her husband be the producer and I guess the Big Wigs didn't like him. Was strange that she wasn't considered as a replacement for Johnny. She always did well when he was on vacation as his replacement.

[@club1fan552]

Apparently, Carson didn't speak to Joan at all during ad breaks. Awful.

[@DreamCather147]

What was the horseback riding story?

[@scottlau4636]

What happens when you lose your virginity? Horseback riding caused it for her.

[@aarondigby5054]

Some women girls break their hymens riding bicycles and horseback

[@_PURAVIDA]

Is it true The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel was based on Joan? It’s ironic Joan was the host of Fashion Police but her wardrobe was never appealing and yet the series character ALWAYS looked fantastic.

[@michellelekas211]

That’s her comedy oitfit

[@joe-zj8js]

Yes .. many similarities. Being jewish, working/living in Greenwich village, getting her big break on johnny carson.

[@mojo500100]

She was a true original, and really funny (especially in that dress, which is arguably the ugliest one I’ve ever seen.) Always thought her late-in-life plastic surgery was a win/lose: it made her beautiful, but she looked like a completely different person.

[@betsybauer7340]

Little did they know how long it would be until Charles would be King

[@lewiscarey6984]

King Charles NOW!!! 👑👑👑

[@michellelekas211]

Yuck

[@user-ne5ri6lt3y]

The queen of ENGLAND.??

[@peggybuetow1026]

Cosmetic surgery really altered her facial features.

[@stevencramsie9172]

That’s kind of the point

[@raelimperialak9361]

Bo Derrick isn’t stupid, Joan is just jealous of her.

[@carrotstick1970]

I think back then, folks treated Bo Derek this way because many liked John Derek’s wife, Linda Evans. Likely Bo Derek was smart, and folks were thinking that rude comments about Bo were in support of Linda.

[@michellelekas211]

Joan had absolutely zero reason to be jealous of Bo or anyone

[@annemurphy9339]

True, and she just had a very biting sense of humor that she often turned toward herself as well, like in this clip. It was just her shtick. People could laugh at themselves then.

[@maxcave8364]

Funniest woman ever

[@mwittner63]

the surprise end
