I was a kid just in my teens when I saw Richard Pryor: Live in Concert. When he did the stuttering Chinese waiter I laughed so hard my abs hurt. My dad and his best friend were big Pryor fans. They used to improvise Mudbone routines. My dad's friend did a variation of stuttering Chinese waiter. He did Japanese guy sneezing. He would do it when he really sneezed too, just out of nowhere. It was hilarious. My brother and I and all our friends did it too and all the Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy routines from Delirious and Raw. Man, we had fun. Thanks for all the laughs and good times all the great comedians. RIP Richard, Johnny, Carlin, Sam Kinison, Robin Williams and so many more who have passed. You brought joy and laughter to the world.
Its the swag that impresses me most, these guys are just so polished and refined without a script, everything off the top of the head and so cool and laid back. Man these guys are freakin smooth...

ProjectDystopia cannot replicate or duplicate these classic days of Television. Johnny Carson had all the greats. Even Richard pryor had a leave of absence when he came out to Johnny Carson he was probably like wow! I'm on Johnny Carson!!
Great to see a conversation about race that's so refreshing, honest, and raw, and no ones gets their panties in a bunch. Pryor was an equal opportunity offender, as was the 70s in general.
Tim Conway loved making his co stars laugh. Amazing to see him wiping his laughter filled eyes sitting next to the legendary Richard. Johnny was a classic host and all the greats were on the tonight show
@@ilkeravni4247 maybe they had alcohol, when Joan Rivers says you the greatest, take it to heart.

The only two legits now are Dave Chappelle, Katt Williams, Chris Rock is good, then there's Seinfeld.
@@ilkeravni4247 everybody did cocaine in those days, Richard is the GREATEST to have ever done it, he does Charlie Chaplin comedy. I watched it when he had a show on NBC in the seventies.
Richard was a naturally funny guy. So was Carson, and Tim Conway. It was a pleasure to have these great funny men to watch. I never missed Robin Williams, Jonathan Winters, Carlin, and a handful of others. Time Marches On. They gave their gifts, and we enjoyed them.
The seventies nurtured the comedians it started in the 60s Richard Pryor George carlin and others. But the 60s rock real rock ‘n’ roll we’re talking Janis Joplin the doors Jimi Hendrix for the artist that we lost in Seoul so many other great groups to this day that still perform the Beatles Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones who would ever believe that 60 years later they would still be performing. Richard Pryor had a special aired tonight on his behalf “The last days of Richard Pryor” aired 1/16/20 on NBC, he put in his act something that’s funny to most, but real that lived his life style where he states a conversation between his pipe and him. Richard was freebasing cocaine he ultimately tried to commit suicide which is unsubstantiated but he stated it where he was missing either water a lighter and burn himself up badly. He talks as if his pipe is telling him it’s OK with you it’s just you and me Richard, don’t listen to everybody else we got this, I got you covered Richard don’t listen to those other people that care about you, Its just you and me, were in this together Richard... it’s funny to those that haven’t been the slave to the pipe, but to those who had been in the past it’s 100% truth it’s not a rationalization it’s the only thing that makes sense that you’re so far down the rabbit hole with the drugs in it it’s talking to you and you’re not listening to reality friends loved ones family anybody I can explain I don’t understand all I know is I lost everything and when they I say everything I mean a loving wife of 33 years, I managed to keep my shit together for 25 years, I was an electronica engineer at the top of my game work but you start ups as a multimillionaire and they drug check over my life and I just it all away with help and I don’t blame her from my ex. Do you punish me she spent $3 million in four years while we were separated when it was all gone she said she wanted to separate our finances despite that there was nothing left to separate except for real estate and my ass out of my 401(k) I wish I had the soundbite of Richard explaining how the pike took control of him I would play it for my three daughters who have their PhD my middle child has her masters in as a teacher at a college and my younger sister going to college I provide for my family well and they turned out great! I regret every day of my life from the day I got separated. A life that many dream to have. Money does not buy happiness. And if anybody tells you different family is everything! My wife told me after I cleaned up that if I proved it to her for six months we get back together yet she was already having affair with my best friend of 20 years and stab me in the back by spending every penny we had except for our real estate and the money she couldn’t touch. I regret all the harm I did to her and my daughters to say anything less I would not be a man. If your using out of control please listen to this again and don’t make the so dear life altering no going back decisions that I can only say the fight made for me for if I was rational or sane I would never have let it get that far. Aloha!
Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder were the ultimate pair. Best comic duo. I watched everything they were in together. To this day, I become a kid again when I watch Silver Streak.
I was probably about 7 when I saw Silver Streak. I didn't even get that it was a comedy. I would not go anywhere NEAR a window after I saw that body fall off the top of the train and hang outside the window. Probably for like a year.
Looking at Carson's body language -- shaking with both hands, fixing his tie and slamming the table -- you can tell he truly appreciated Pryor's comedy.
Richard Pryor is my all-time favorite Comedian, I hope I never have to replace my vinyl 33 1/3 albums of his, I'll be in deep do-do. We lost a great entertainer when he died.
Most of them still apply. Real comedy has a lot of truth in it and some truths are universal. Hear him talking about the network censoring his content because someone found it "offensive".
Pryor One of the All Time Greats and Carson a Class Act, They’re Civil and Polite to each Other and Know each Other so Well, How can we ever get back to That?!?
I was abused by my father. But I didn't abused my daughter. I broke the cycle. I like the way Richard talks a be about his .kids. Been watching Richard Pryor videos since 5am. Love it. 1-22-20 Thanks UA-cam for uploading this videos.
Well, Richard certainly had his demons and his dark side -- thank God he didn't take it out on his children, but he was pretty rough on the women in his life, and of course he was self-destructive. I love the man, he was a genius, he obviously had a good and tender heart, but the damage was done.

I'm 73 having trouble sleeping, it's 5:00 am so I'm going to try to rest. I've been watching my tablet. Going to turn it off and Richard Pryor comes on Johnny Carson. Now I cant turn the TV off. So, not only can I forget sleeping but after watching Richard, I will have to go change my underwear. Lord I love that man he was the funniest man on the earth. Always will be.
Which Way Is Up, Richard Pryor's funniest movie!! The theme song from Stargard was a number one R&B smash hit. Also was a top 40 hit on the Pop charts.
I would give anything to go back in time through a time machine, think about it the great Tim Conway, the great Johnny Carson, the Great Richard Pryor, all on the same show, this is back when entertainers told the truth it wasn't about the money they all have personality Johnny Carson was the coolest talk show hosts interview ever notice how he sincerely enjoyed Richard Pryor's conversation and thought it was a very funny
Ours was the Hawaii Five O' theme song. Never saw an eposiod. Lol! My brother and I act as though we were directing the orchestra then when it was done we were out.
I just watched his 79, 80 & 83 appearances back to back to back. Thanks for the tip, I’ll go watch his 74 appearance next. Each time I reflect on where I was living, with who & what our society was going through. The good ol’ days….RIP
I remember seeing this when it first aired on television !! LoL ,OMG hilarious !! literally tears running down my face from laughing so hard !! I miss Richard Pryor and Johnny Carson soooo much !! Rest in peace and cheers to 2 of my favorite comedians !!
I was 12 years old when also saw this particular episode of Johnny Carson. Normally l'll watch the monologue then on to bed but Richard Pryor was on so l stayed up. Only part l remember to this day was Richard doing the stuttering Chinese, fell out of my bed crying laughing, still funny as hell!!! RIP Richard, Johnny, Tim and Ed.
Snap Crackle I came here to look back, Witherspoon said on Jamie Foxx show,they both did more than partied,they both liked that White?I knew Pryor did,but Jhonny I thought was drinking
I was a Richard Pryor fan since i was like 8...Im 43 now.My dad would watch him and cheech and chong all the time and Richard was far more funny to me..I miss him so and i miss my dad sitting watching Richard Pryor in the movie "The Toy',together just laughing him me and my brother..My dad passed little before Richard did in his mid 40s just to young to of died but he sure gave me some great memories of my childhood and Richard Pryor was one we definetly loved and watched together...May they both R.I.P hope Richard is telling my dad some good ones up there!!!
I know it’s not politically correct now but my mom allowed me to watch Richard at the age of eleven and he enriched my life. My mom and I watched the first televised laugh off of Eddie Murphy and we laughed so hard together. Eddie got ripped off that night! But he came back and showed the world when he joined SNL. ✌️🥰 much love for their comedy
Dwayne Shaw the stuttering Chinese waiter is one of his greatest bits. It's recorded material, although he did go off the cuff with it here. Richard was awesome!
Thought one drink and a quick smoke and watch a bit of Johnny - now the gin bottle is empty and I am thinking of getting another one. The magic of Carson!
Richard Pryor is one of the greatest story tellers of all time.
Dick Cavett is the greatest interviewing him (and everyone), and him and Pryor were old friends.

Billy Connolly. No script, ever
Johnny Carson and Richard Pryor what a duo these guys are so cool and to hear the stories is awesome
Not only do I miss Johnny.... I Loved Richard Pryor. 🇨🇦💜
The art of conversation. Not plugging anything, just conversing naturally. Johnny was a genius and you don't see this type of host anymore.
I beg to differ - Colbert is at least as good, and at least as classy

Yes their relationship is sweet.
Well obviously 🙂 Its so nice to watch the clips with Johnny and especially the stars he had this kind of chemistry with

That movie didn't get enough respect. It is one of the funniest ever made.
Johnny Carson, Richard Pryor, and Tim Conway...I don’t think you could fit any more FUNNY onto one talk show set.
Check out some old Sammy Maudlin clips on UA-cam. Amazing stuff. Just as packed with funny as this.

Greatest Comedian of all time Richard Pryor meets once again the the greatest late night presenter of all time Johnny Carson both fantastic characters
Pryor was a genius, such a shame he left so early
Knowing the abuse Richard Pryor went through as a child, it's quite sad listening to his anecdotes. Nevertheless, what a genius he was!
The most effective humor often comes from the deepest pain. Not always, but often.
These are jokes from Richard Pryor live in concert! His best in my opinion.
God I miss the days when we could laugh at each other and TALK Every once in awhile I look up old stuff and laugh ALOT
I like how they played "Happy" 34 years before it was released as he was walking out.
Folks don't know that Pryor and Carson party'd together
Snap Crackle I came here to look back, Witherspoon said on Jamie Foxx show,they both did more than partied,they both liked that White?I knew Pryor did,but Jhonny I thought was drinking
Even after Johnny retired he kept doing coke.
Johnny was hitting that white with rich
Johnny kept playing wit his nose the whole interview u know on commercial break they was hittin that snow
Strong rumor has it they fucked a few times !

They get a long because they were both coked up lol

TWO Legends on their segments
i love how richard started interviewing carson not 4 minutes into the show

Back in the day when you could still have a smoke on tv.
Yes smoking everywhere.
Nobody misses that.

Good ole days...
Good riddance
American men had so much class and elan back then. These were some bad muthafuckas in the best sense of the word.
9xxxxxxxxx what makes you say these two had “so much class”.
Their dignity and warmth in this video, probably.
all time favorites all of them.Rich,Tim,andddddddddddddddddddddd Johnny!!!
THis dude literally freestyled his talents lol
Dwayne Shaw the stuttering Chinese waiter is one of his greatest bits. It's recorded material, although he did go off the cuff with it here. Richard was awesome!
Awesome interview. I miss those days.
Everything about Richard is funny he has a funny type of walk. I've noticed it long before but now I'm really noticing it a lot more.
California Suite is a very funny movie. It's written by Neil Simon, who wrote The Odd Couple. RPryor is really good in it.
Thought one drink and a quick smoke and watch a bit of Johnny - now the gin bottle is empty and I am thinking of getting another one. The magic of Carson!
The man stuttering in Chinese was hilarious!!!
Dee 1 too funny!😂
A stuttering Chinese waiter! Hilarious!
It reminds me of John Belushi in SNL speaks gibberish Japaneese.
True hell any decade was better than nowadays
Yo Conway was wiping tears from his eyes after that stuttering Chinese joke Richard was a genius
