And charisma, my god, no superstar could steal a particle of his light without him gifting it willingly. Miss you Johnny.

He was the greatest "straight man" ever. That is the most difficult job in comedy. And he did it well with everybody, no matter what their style, timing, subject matter. And he genuinely enjoyed his guest's humor and laughed at their jokes. But it's very hard to be a good straight man for all the varied talent he had on his show: from Rickles to Dangerfield and everything in between.

Thomas Falken I don't know if the man was an addict or not. I like to think he wasn't. His movements and apparently sweating, since he keeps wiping his face with a handkerchief is part of his schtick, an act. Remember he's portraying a man that's on the edge of a nervous breakdown, if not in one already, full of anxiety, frustration and stressed out to the max because for as long as he can remember everybody and everything around him does not fit, his entire life is a whole lot of misses and very few and too far apart hits that even then they turn around and bite him on the ass. Thus his famous line I get no respect, you know, no respect. Either way a very funny man indeed.

@@rogervallecillo292 The following passage recalls Dangerfield’s audition for Al Czervik (casting for Caddyshack): “He comes in wearing this aqua-blue leisure suit and takes out a plastic bag and does two lines of coke. He undoes his shirt and says, ‘Where’s the pussy?’ ” It was a hell of a first impression. Dangerfield would end up getting $35,000 for his role. And though he would always credit Caddyshack for launching his movie career, he would often do so while complaining that he actually lost $150,000 on the film, having given up a month of headlining in Vegas to shoot it.

@@RoyAnderson fun fact: when I was a kid (early to mid 80's) my older brother had a B&W TV in his bedroom and he would watch Doctor Who (the Tom Baker era) on it. For a good chunk of my life, until I was about 35 or so, I thought those episodes were strictly B&W...Last year I had a desire to revisit those classic episodes (I had never watched Doctor Who), and so my wife and I started watching the Tom Baker episodes, but the whole time I was watching it something seemed off. It didn't feel like the same show I remember my brother watching. About 20 episodes in I realized what was wrong...I was watching it in color...lol

Back in the 80's, I got to see Rodney and Don Rickles with my parents at The Wisconsin State Fair Rodney in 83 and Rickles in 84. Both times we got REALLY Close seats! And I was laughing SO HARD I actually got Heckled by BOTH Comedians! It was PRICLESS! We were all laughing SO HARD I almost couldn't BREATH! For ME it was an HONOR to get picked out of the crowd and Heckled by two GREAT and LEGENDARY Comedians! Their kind we will never see again! After both shows we got to talk to them back stage and I got their Autographs which I STILL HAVE till this VERY DAY! Both men were Sweet Funny Great Guys and BOTH Made sure I wasn't upset being the "Butt of their Jokes"! I said the same thing to BOTH... "For ME it was a Distinct HONOR to be part of their Show!" And I thanked them for making us laugh SO HARD! Those were some of the BEST TIMES I ever had with my parents! I miss them all SO MUCH! My parents AND Those to VERY Funny Guys! AND I miss Johnny Carson too! His show was ONE of a KIND!!! He Will ALWAYS BE the "KING of LATE NIGHT TV"! :D 'Nuff Said! Joe

I SOOO Agree! And Thank You for that! :) You Know... people like Donald Trump might be "Wealthy" in a monetary sense... but I THINK a GREAT "wealth" is when you make special connections to people! THAT is the REAL "WEALTH" of Living! It's the PEOPLE! at the end of "It's a Wonderful Life"... Clarence the Angel gives George Bailey the "Tom Sawyer" book he was reading and in it he inscribes these words... "Remember George... No Man is a Failure who has Friends" There is SO MUCH Truth to that! And AGAIN... people LIKE Trump BURN their "People Bridges" because they don't SEE the REAL "Wealth" or "VALUE" of People. Of Family and Friends... And sadly... SO MUCH is LOST! When I got to meet both Rodney and Don Rickles after their shows... I was shaking hands with and TALKING TO Comedians... PEOPLE that I had grown up with and ADMIRED my WHOLE LIFE! It also made their passing MUCH more profound for me! I feel like I lost a little part of me when they passed on... but then I thought... Because I Think of them... they are STILL alive in ME! In MY Memories of them! They were Great men... NOT Because they were FAMOUS... but because they gave the VERY Precious gift if LAUGHTER to SO MAN for SUCH a long time! THAT is their Legacy! :D
