Don Rickles Roasts Jimmy Stewart Man of the Hour

[@WestJason9]

RIP Don Rickles you were one in a million

[@garrington120]

Just one !!!

[@mmgringoire2]

What I love about this Roast is that no one can think of one mean thing to say about Jimmy. Others get mocked for their 20 marriages, politics, drinking, or bad attitude, but not Jimmy Stewart. A class act.

[@thedragonsnortchannel2609]

Yeah. I noticed that Don's tone of voice is a lot lighter in this roast than innall the others.

[@JohnoEAL]

Don't worry, I'm sure of he was black he'd be getting mocked for being black.

[@jeffconway8729]

Yes, he was about as a decent man as you can get. These days, it's probably Tom Hanks that has taken his place. Zero ego.

[@threepot5874]

Tom Hanks?😕

Don is very reserved and calm for him. LOL Showing respect for Mr Stewart.

[@kappakappa3110]

Stormy Davis yes

[@bopbopperono58]

The low-key delivery makes it way funnier.

[@isacece1334]

O...i noticed that too....i thought maybe because Don was feeling sick or something....lol.. He didn't seem his hyper-self

[@breakingcycles741]

That was amazing improv at the end. Always admired the wittiness of certain comedians.

[@bdm5858]

Rickles set the stage for many comedians mocking his quick wits and euphoric persona.

Damn .. I can’t believe I just found this real gem !!! Never seen anyone quite like him before . Might be late but dang it I’m a fan !!! Well done Sir !!!

[@vincentsartain3061]

It came from a great many years of experience in Don's part.

[@t18amgr]

RIP. The last of a breed. When Comedy was taken as just that not as a violation of politically correct bullshit. Bless you Don. You were priceless.

[@jackvanderpool3417]

t18amgr Back then they made a joke about dumb stuff, race, politics, and everyone knew it was in good fun. It's funny that the folks today who experienced​ no real racism are the ones whining today. the blacks who used SEPERATE restrooms, hotels and lunch counters are the ones on stage laughing. what abjoke

@@jackvanderpool3417 Miss LaWanda Page most certainly did experience her share of racist maltreatment, but she was also an intelligent woman who could distinguish the kind of Jim Crow era racism she had been subjected to earlier in life from the "all in good fun" jabs of Don Rickles. Moreover, by Don's very "faux-racist" remarks he was making ANTI-racist statements, in much the same way that viewers of ALL IN THE FAMILY could laugh at Archie Bunker and his racist ignorance and receive the very message that the show was making (by way of Archie's off-putting behavior) about how stupid it really is to judge anyone by the color of their skin.

[@mrkeno1000]

This shows what a class act Rickles was he so respected Jimmy Stewart all he said was he hoped he could stay awake then went down the table

[@bzb500]

Jimmy Stewart is such a gentle man Don Rickles couldn't say anything but he tore up the rest of the group. He is too much Don Rickles. I love the very witty and hilarious insults. How this man thought of the things he said is beyond master mind.👏

Don Rickels is so quick with his staged put downs and Insults, he is the only who could do it and not really offend anyone..Such a Funny Guy!

[@vincentsartain3061]

I'd rather be "insulted" by Don Rickles than be complimented by many a modern comedian who have never amounted to a mole on the butt of old-time comics like Don and his showbiz colleagues of yesteryear.

[@thementalist1213]

A comedian (I forgot who) actually said that when doing roasts, you must bear no ill-will because it bleeds through your material.

[@jasonhood2453]

At 2:57 there seems to be a dramatic change in camera position, audio, and Don’s delivery. Makes me wonder if the recording up to that point was a reshoot due to some technical problem before returning to the live original recording.

James Maitland Stewart (Indiana, Pensilvania; 20 de mayo de 1908 - Beverly Hills, California; 2 de julio de 1997), popularmente conocido como James Stewart (o Jimmy Stewart, especialmente en Estados Unidos), fue un prolífico actor de cine, teatro y televisión estadounidense ganador de un Premio Óscar. Durante el transcurso de su carrera actuó en varias películas consideradas clásicos y fue nominado cinco veces al Premio Óscar, ganando una vez en competencia y recibiendo uno honorífico por su trayectoria; también recibió un Premio Cecil B. DeMille por su trayectoria, pero después ganaría el Globo de Oro como Mejor actor de televisión - Drama. También tuvo una notable carrera militar alcanzando el grado de General de Brigada en la Fuerza Aérea de los Estados Unidos.

Both this one and the Klugman roast by Don are obviously pre-recorded. They never show him with anyone else in the same frame and it was said he did this quite often. They just reused the intro and dais shots from other episodes.
