Bob Newhart Begs Johnny Not To Leave | Carson Tonight Show

[@roywells5790]

I was a young boy when i started watching Johnny. Im 64 and still can't get enough of him . Class and a comedic genius. He always tried to make his guest look good. He wouldn't believe this world now

[@Messonround]

So true

[@susanfeldman-rm7ht]

I'm with you I am 65 and I was really young when I sat on the top of the stairs to watch him on TV my parents never caught me peaking 😂 KZbin has a ton of his old shows Rodney Dangerfield was hilarious google when Sinatra and Don ricklese were the guests and Rickles made fun of Sinatra hanging with so called mafia figurs 😂😂😂

[@conscientioussubjector1360]

59…same here

[@Messonround]

51 years old and remember watching in the 80's and now to see prior shows is really a treat. Johnny is just great and so very much missed.

[@gregdebaggis5032]

Johnny Carson was and always shall be the G.O.A.T. of late night entertainment!! ❤

[@roncaruso931]

Two giants of comedy. It was worth staying up late when Carson did the Tonight Show.

[@meijer78]

Bob, Johnny and Don Rickles were all very close friends. Glad that Bob is still with us.

[@frickfracked]

Today was a sad day. What a delivery so plain great. Rest easy Bob.

[@meijer78]

@@frickfracked He is reunited with his friends now.

[@frickfracked]

@@meijer78 Him and Dean always would make me lose it. Dean was always laughing a little too much and Bob could deadpan drop kick it further into the fracas. A true comedy gem and so glad he was here this long.

[@stuartjohnson5686]

Bob Newhart, Don Rickles and Don Adams.

[@ToddDolce]

I feel so lucky that I was able to appreciate and watch Bob Newhart all throughout my youth! Even as a young teenager in the 70's, I knew talent when I saw it and while others were out at parties, I would stay home so I could watch the Bob Newhart show. I would even listen to his early 33's (albums) that my dad had and would laugh hysterically with my mom in the kitchen. He was a pro through and through and I would have loved to have been a part of his inner circle, hanging out with the Rickles family and even Carson. True legend!

[@BruceStephan]

Bob spoke for everybody that night . I never wanted Johnny to leave . I wish I had a digital video recorder way back when .

[@johnnybravado7141]

Bob's reaction to Johnny Carson leaving hearken's back to the final episode of The Bob Newhart show where his character Dr. Hartley was leaving his psychology practice to be a teacher of psychology. His most annoying patient Elliot Carlin (played by Jack Riley) had the same reaction to Bob's leaving. The only difference was Bob Newhart wouldn't be wearing a dress.🤣🤣🤣

[@AlphaLimaXray]

Two giants of comedy and epitomes of class, now both no longer with us. RIP to both of them.

[@kevinmcconnell3641]

There are more than a few people would argue the “class” designation in the case of Johnny Carson. Anyone that would call Don Rickles their best friend, well that guy is on the “to be sainted” list!!

[@Lettuce-and-Tomatoes]

I learned tonight that Bob’s wife, Ginnie, who he mentioned in this video passed away in 2023. He married her in 1963 and she was always smiling in the numerous photos of her I saw online. I’ve always been a fan of Bob’s work from his stand up acts and records through to his work as Professor Proton. He’s clearly a wonderful person and I’m happy for him that he had a wife he loved for over 60 years. That’s rare these days, unfortunately. RIP, Ginnie!

[@michaelj.r457]

Ginnie is responsible for giving Bob the idea for the iconic Newhart finale.

[@Lettuce-and-Tomatoes]

@@michaelj.r457 I didn’t know that. I found the episode online and watched it tonight. Thanks for the information.

[@chuckberlin4605]

😢❤

[@chrislargent6121]

One of the greatest finalies of all time . Shows the great chemistry between Bob and Suzanne plesheet and I love making fun of dallas,s dream season

[@DrWho7481]

A beautiful message. I like to think, somehow, Mr. Newhart has found the opportunity (algorithm, cited by a friend, etc.), to read your genuine tribute.

[@carolynm8421]

RIP Bob. Your deadpan straight face in absurd situations was brillantly perfect. You'd be the guy in the strange or crazy sitution thinking what the audience was thinking which was really funny. Tell Johnny hi for us.

[@UniversalExports23]

God, I've always loved Bob Newhart since I was a kid. Love Bob as much as Johnny 😂 Two all-time class-act comics!

[@RazorbackVol]

These two men lit up the world!! God Rest the Merry Gentlemen.

[@lenhummel5766]

Bob, in his ninties, is still with us. He and Johnny had such love & respect for one another. Mr. Carson, you are missed. Irreplaceable.👍👍

The great ole days. I miss them so 🎉much

[@2Hearts3]

On this day after Bob Newhart's death, icame to this video to enjoy seeing him again. This is the best episode of the Tonight Show, which i didn't always like. Bob Newhart raised the level of comedy everywhere he went. May he rest in Peace.

[@Andrew-Antioch-Kim]

"Dynamic Duo" who proved timeless comedy!

[@andersfant4997]

Comedy is about perfect timing. And Newhart was💯%. He used pauses and could always read the room. Bob Newhart was the greatest.

[@stevenmcwilliam6945]

RIP Bob I miss these days of such talent.

[@NC-xk1eg]

Love him! Such a hilarious & unique style!

[@mikeglasgow9618]

Innocence lost to time

[@critterscute3642]

64 here. I feel exactly the same. In grammar school I would crawl out of bed and hide under the dining room table to watch. My mom would pretend for a bit I wasn’t there before telling me to get back to bed. Real people. No daily gun violence and mass shootings. I really miss those days.

[@retroguy9494]

You're not the only one! I miss those days more than anyone will ever know.

[@lashakhonelidze1350]

Top class comedy we will never witness again.

[@bettycogswell9851]

Loved these two. Man, I miss Johnny...

[@krisscanlon4051]

The coughing the pauses and mumbling...perfect timing!

[@NoNo-jh5yx]

Excellent examples as to how subtle intelligence and comradeship can be expressed affectionately, even when tearing the other apart. The result? Laughter, not disdain.

[@pizzanpepsi]

RIP Mr. Newhart . Thanks for putting this video out!!

[@collegeman1988]

DON’T GO!!! I’m sure most of us feel the same way about Bob Newhart. He was such an offbeat comedian and he was a lot of fun to watch. RIP Bob.

[@peachespavalko1980]

Lordie, how I loved Bob! And I remember those clips very well. Classic! 😊

[@beverleyreid563]

Awww! Bob. Such a smart and funny sense of humor. Will be missed.

[@MarjorainMD]

When late night TV had class and pizzazz and its host was king. Oh, brothers, I sorely miss those days. On a positive note at least we have this great channel, thank you. 🙏🏼 An old man subscriber - Edit: Ah, forgot to Cheers 🍻 for Bob, love him, a true survivor and a fine loving man.

[@retroguy9494]

Class on late night TV took it's last bow when Letterman retired.

[@orbison]

Finally, after all these years. Of all the celebrity guest reactions to Carson retiring back in 1992, Bob Newhart has my second all-time favorite with that memorable moment at 1:35. FTR: Bette Midler is of course #1 on that list.

[@CookieCaspari]

Don't go Johnny don't go! I used to watch The Tonight Show ever since I was a teenager. Carson was the best, no comparison to the idiots that host talk shows these days.

[@XavierJustice-is2or]

1:48 Hahahah that was very genuine and hilarious at the same time

[@cdstoc]

Wow, I haven't laughed so loud in a long time....

[@aqhasassy]

2 great gifted men. Back when we had real entertainment.

[@theresaschmidt1183]

Their ties and jackets are coordinated!

[@jazzander5314]

Shoes and Socks too, which goes to show the lengths they went to for something the audience wouldn't even see... (At least I imagine they did)

[@AllenJeremy]

Bob of course was the voice of Bernard the mouse in The Rescuers & The Rescuers Down Under & played Papa Elf in the Christmas movie Elf.

Bob Newhart and Mel Brooks the very last of their generation. Dick Van Dyke comedic actor.

[@g-girl9867]

I want a nickle for every time JC says: "Someone told me..." Loved Johnny since I was 12 yrs old babysitting my two young brothers when my parents went out. Here I was feeling like a queen sitting in their bed, when bros were asleep, in my moms negligee and satin robe - at 11 yrs old, in 1964.

[@Hank13665]

Bob: "It didn't make for a good program." It made for a GREAT program! Bob and Johnny - two real masters of their crafts.

No more...................

With the shenanigans going on in the world and in America both of these entertainers humor is going to be missed ~ R.I.P. Bob Newhart

[@DLUNA357]

Without a doubt The Gold Standard in late night talk show hosting and comedy presentation. Johnny will never ever be duplicated, Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy kimmel couldn't even come within 1% of Johnny! A true proesional in all aspects.

The Hungarian on the Ted Mack amateur hour--one of the funniest jokes I've ever heard! Still LMAO! Much gratitude to those gentlemen for bringing laughter to my world.

[@ROB45CAN]

I just noticed this error: Original Airdate: May 05th, 1992. That is incorrect, because I was in this audience >>> it was May 12, 1992. Show # 4,524 ... May 12, 1992 ... Bob Newhart, Magic Johnson Lyle Lovett. Whoever put the video up here hopefully sees this and corrects it.

[@LYLEWOLD]

Carson was terrific at saving a bombing bit. Some of his funniest moments were when things went wrong.

My Mom told me that when my Grandfather was younger, he had quite a resemblance to Bob Newhart and would be stopped by people thinking he was him. When I looked at pics. of Grandpa from the 50s and 60s, yeah, definitely some resemblance, not so much in later years.

I've always had a big crush on the man. RIP

[@raypeters4525]

HILARIOUS !

[@modernretroradio993]

CBS put Bob Newhart's new series on a Friday night, which had become a bad night for almost any show to survive by the '90s. ABC was the only network pulling decent Friday night numbers at that time.

[@TedH.]

Johnny would enjoy being seen on KZbin.

[@codyhilton1750]

The show "Bob" wasn't a success; however, I did enjoy his new show as it was Bob Newhart. RIP.

Carson made it look so effortless, yet we know that's not the case. Today's latenite is a barren wasteland of "comedians" trying to too hard & flailing over each other. Hard to believe Johnny has been off the air longer than he was on. 1962-92 1992-2024
