Tonight Show with Johnny Carson 29th Anniversary - 10/3/1991

[@FredLord-sp4ym]

Mr. Carson's comedy was simple, non-offending, and completely hysterical. He brought people together in a way that no late night television host has ever done since he left the airwaves. Johnny Carson was one-of-a-kind. Thanks for sharing.

[@hypolyxa7207]

Thank you so much for keeping this precious piece of history alive.

[@sandraspidle5972]

TY you tube for keeping Johnny with us❤️👍😇

[@PattyFreeman-q1i]

1000x yes!! Thankyou!

[@vicmartinoofficial331]

The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson was the best of all the late night talk shows and remains so to this day.

[@johnking5174]

The Tonight Show name should have been retired with Johnny in 1992 - and a new named show replacing it. That is what Craig Ferguson said should have happened.

[@joannaedwards6325]

imo, J.C. was the best interviewer ever. What a good listener. He asked just the right questions to bring out the humor and intelligence of his guests. By watching Johnny I learned the right way to have a conversation with another. He was kind, sincere and generous. Damn those demonic cigarettes !! 😝 I expected he would come out of retirement to produce some great TV shows 😢😢.

I'm sad I wasn't born when Johnny hosted "The Tonight Show". 30 Years of talent, laughs, and ingenuity. Him, Ed, Doc, Tommy Newsom, Freddy DeCordova, Bobby Quinn, they are all amazing. If you ask me Johnny's Tonight Show is the typical format of the Late Night talk show, while David Letterman (on NBC) and Craig Ferguson deconstructed the genre and made it even better.

[@theleeoverstreet]

I agree on all points. Except I'm sad I'm old enough to have been born when he was still fairly new to the show! 🤣

Sorry,letterman did everything Steve Allen and Carson did. Plus hosting surviving actors and of the time. Just got more 21st century. Like how we now get to see this on KZbin any time you want.. like a oneway time machine. Ferguson's show is the male Ellen show,flirting with woman and that's it.

The material was still strong. I wonder, if anyone of the crew knew at that point, that the show would be ending less than a year later. What I can't stand is the new hosts had no originality. Jimmy Fallon, to this day, still has the show titled The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Give me an f###in break. Respect is one thing but please 🥺. Earn the respect on your own for God's sake. Why tie the brand to your show to an institution if you have an off night. Fallon is mediocre at best - he was a tad better than Leno, not even close to Conan O'Brien. To label the show with the Tonight Show moniker, and not be anywhere close to the same talent realm as Johnny Carson, is ludicrous and disrespectful.
