Watch this one video. Marvel at the difference between this and today. Richard burnt himself up one year prior to this whilst on drugs. Watch Johnny, George, and Richard get along. I miss that. Each one of them....we do not have a replacement for any of them. We all used to get along. For you millennials #beforeyourtimebeotch

And, one hell of a TV weather man.

Interesting comments and post. For me the most relevant thing—-at least in regard to Carson—-is that it was an act. These folks didn’t let down their hair on TV, they played a role and we all loved it.

Agreed, Never really liked Pryor or even remotely thought that he was the God some make him out to be. Carlin, interesting at times but otherwise a douche as mentioned above. Carson, was in a class at the top.
