    Bob Newhart surprises longtime friend, Don Rickles during HBO's 13th Annual U.S. Comedy Arts Festival, in Aspen, 2007 with director, John Landis. Newhart tells a funny story.
    'I read the New York Post. He studies the editorials. I study the sports page. He likes polite discourse. I'm loud. So how the hell have we come to like each other so much? We make each other laugh-that's how. Offstage, I'm Bob Newhart's best audience and he's mine. It helps, of course, that our wives have maintained their close friendship. Bob and I both subscribe to the philosophy that has saved many a marriage: Happy wife, happy life. For some thirty-five years, the Newharts and the Rickleses have taken many happy vacations together. We've traveled the world. I've watched him hide as I've made fun of people in foreign languages I don't understand. He's watched me doze off while he's discussed the world's problems. My problem was finding out if the Dodgers beat the Giants.' (Rickles Book: A Memoir)
    The Comedy Festival, formerly known as the US Comedy Arts Festival, was a comedy festival that ran from 1995 to 2008.The festival included stand-up comedy performances, appearances by the casts of television shows, and has a film component called the Film Discovery Program.

      Don had said the "secret" to his marriage with Barbara was that " *she didn't laugh at his jokes* ".
      "They will never be another one like them" has been overused, but in Bob and Don's it is probably true because they were so different from the "mainstream" in their own time.

    Don Rickles has been gone for some time, now. These two were friends in every sense of the word and I do wonder how such kindred souls manage to survive the ‘premature’ loss of one or the other. You must watch Bob roasting Don, on here. Magic.

    Both Don Rickles and Bob Newhart were first-rate actors, as well as comedians. For example, watching them together here, most people would have no idea they despised and loathed one another in real life. But here they come across as the best of friends. They're phenomenal professionals and actors.

      R A not to defend his actions or anything, but that host is none other than director John Landis who directed such classics as:
      Animal House
      The Blues Brothers
      An American Werewolf in London
      Three Amigos
      Coming to America
      As well directing Michael Jackson's music videos for:
      "Thriller" and
      "Black or White"

      @jandreid1056 3 роки тому +5

      @@MrRapparicio 2 months late for a response but if it helps, Landis made the documentary "Mr. Warmth: The Don Rickles Project" which celebrated the life and career of Don Rickles; which resulted in Rickles netting 2 Emmys: the only Emmys he got in his television career. So Landis might have been a little bit fresh here, but he did gave Rickles a much greater gift that, in perspective excused him a little bit.

    The comedians of Newhart's and Rickles' era were so stylistically different from each other--Berle,Youngman,Dangerfield,Hope,Benny,Burns,Carlin,Joan Rivers,Phyllis Diller,Gleason,Lewis,Gorshin,Little--and the rest,but today,it's a comedic wasteland out there.Colbert and Kimmell tell Trump jokes for 15 minutes.Seth Meyers tells Trump jokes for a half hour.Now if they were funny...but they're not--and constant repetition is one of the reasons.Comics used to have a three joke rule:Don't exceed 3 jokes about one subject.About Trump,they go over that number by 50 easily.Bob is/was a great one.
