A transgender comedian could get away with anything. On the other hand, anyone who laughed at his/her/it's joke would be called a toxic masculine/feminine.
Donald Jay "Don" Rickles (Queens, Nueva York, Estados Unidos, 8 de mayo de 1926 - Beverly Hills, California; 6 de abril de 2017)[1][2] fue un humorista y actor estadounidense. Invitado habitual del programa Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, que le proporcionó una gran publicidad, Rickles interpretó a lo largo de su vida diversos papeles cómicos y dramáticos (tanto en series de televisión como en películas).
Minds like Don Rickles with that quick wit and humility like Johnny only occur a few times every generation. This is comedic genius in its natural environment!
When he died I went to his website, he had dates listed for the next year. Said it all to me. The body might have faltered in his last few years but the mind was sharp as a tack right to the end. I wish I had had the chance to see him live.
Yeah saw him in October 6months before his passing. He was so sharp and so funny.I was about to buy tickets for the next year 2017 but then he passed.Miss him.
Hey Paul, we met in Gainesville in '92 after your show, you came to Congo Craig's, the rooftop place downtown. I was the karaoke emcee that night. Rick Aviles was also there as well. Was like a lifetime ago!
@Lost Angel I'm pretty sure it is him, by the way he commented about Don, I mean, who else could it be? The comedian Paul Rodriguez was who I met, for sure.
@@MichaelDiVito2667 yes the Paul Rodriguez came to comment here of all the people in the world. Im just saying it isn't certainly him and i very much doubt it is
First I laugh my ass off, and then I get sad, knowing all of them are gone. But thanks for the incredible memories guys You all were simply the BEST!! And thank God for You Tube!!
I grew up in the 60's & 70"s watching Johnny Carson, and some of his shows were the one's with Don Rickles, Bob Hope, Dean Martin. But my favorite was Don Rickles because you never knew what he was going to say. His delivery was so fantastic. He was one of the few who could get me to laugh out loud. It sad that there will never be another one like him, because we have lost the ability to laugh at ourselves.
But I DO. And I Cld have Never thought at That time that there Wld come a time that I'd Miss those nights, just sitting in the L.R. watching Johnny with my Parents. It was just what we did.. Johnny Carson and then.. lights Out.
Holding a cassette recorder up to the speaker of our Motorola TV to record this (Before VCR's DVD's and streaming) kids today wouldn't/can't understand
It always amazed me how Don whatever show he was on, could rise to the occasion and knock everyone's socks off. Take a good look folks, talent like his will never walk this planet again.
Those of us who remember that it was ok and American to laugh at each other are very lucky indeed. I always turn to Don, Johnny, Winters, Dean et al these days. They are a relief from the news!
Clarification question: were you all laughing at each other in the long gas lines, after you turned in your neighbors for being Communists, or after your male boss slapped you in the butt for doing a good job at work? Yes, lucky you.
When I was a kid in the 70's I would scan the TV guide to see when Rickles was on Carson. Then I would beg to stay up and watch him. My parents were pretty cool about it.
We don't hear enough stories about parents being 'pretty cool' everything is either how terrible they are or how serious they are about everything...my wife, very traditional Filipino, has always had a little problem with me 'going easy' on our daughter but I say, 'Hey, she's only going to be 7 once...' Like these comedians, people need to chill and not worry about every damn thing.
@@julianmarsh1378 I agree. I am glad I grew up in the 70's. I tried to give my 2 children some "chill" even though it was beginning to get tense in the early 2000's. They are 19 and 22 now.
Great days when there was one tv in the house you would sit down as a family and watch together laughing eating chips watching these guy's boy what a shame its changed miss this big time 🌹🙏
What a 'Pussy Nation'....... we've become. this is when people could 'roll' with comedy in all it's forms......and 'laugh'...with a joke, and not 'turn it into'...more than it was, because of their fucking 'feelings'. weilding that...like a childs temper-tantrum' weapon. God...wish i could go back to the 60's and 70's.
This is 10 times funnier then any of the clowns they have on now a days and I say that at the age of 35. I love watching these older clips from the tonight show.
Steven Babinski I’m 44 and it’s the same here. These guys were not found at „ America has talent“ , they were forged in thousands of stand up nights and had two things: enormous talent and class. All this is not required today any longer. The only quality needed today is to be politically correct and to look pleasing.
Steven Babinski yea, Kimmel and the other guy are so not funny.He was on the Kimmel show, many years back and even commented that Kimmel was not funny and told him, nice try

I've never seen this clip before! :) Just when you think you've just about seen virtually every Don Rickles appearance on every talk show! :) Thank you!
Rickles may have said it to Frank years later at the Sands in Vegas, but the first time was at Murray Franklin's in Miami Beach. Don's mother knew Frank's mom and asked her if she could get "Frankie" to see Don at the club. If he did, it would give her son's career a boost. Don told Frank to hit somebody when they met for the first time.
Don Rickles walks into the room and the conservation was a 1 man show. The people in earshot were just the decorative plants taking up space. He looked at and you needed to grab ahold of the chair tight and ride it out. Miss these comedians. No script No boundaries it was let it fly and see where we land
Classic show with Johnny Carson and Don Rickles was one of a kind, Johnny is the best host there has ever been! I love these videos as they always make me laugh out loud!
4:17min "Shhhhut up Freddy (de Cordova, Producer) if you´d know more than me, you´d be a guest!"...that totally killed me:)The delivery was so so magnificent-like only Don Rickles could do it. He will be forever unsurpassed and unique.I miss him.
Same here my folks would let me stay up if Buddy Rich was on and he was on a lot so I really enjoyed that my dad always fell asleep and my mom went to bed so I had a blast!!!! Loved Carson!!

I'm a bit torn on this, because that was Don Rickles style definitely, but I'll bet a lot of blacks back then didn't appreciate a couple of those lines. Not all but probably a significant amount. Of course it was biting comedy from a white persons perspective because we can laugh at the absurdity of owning slaves not so long ago. Imagine being a young or old black person though and hearing the jokes ,all of the accompanying laughter and trying to figure it out in your head. Many think it's swung the other way right now with whites being the butt of jokes that they wouldn't dare to turn around on a minority, but hopefully things will even out eventually. Which brings me to this point. Why are so many white people upset at being poked fun at when they thought it was a hoot when Rickles did it back in the day? Just some messy musings on this and not intended as anything else.
@@captaincrunch8333 the key is we don't know what was going through don rickles mind when he said what he said. Maybe he was a closet racist, does it matter? Maybe... personally I stay away from mean people and I don't vote for them...but they can be entertaining at times...I don't care if mean people make money and attain fame so long as they do it legally.
@@captaincrunch8333 I don't know...I think a lot of black comedians are hysterical when they tell white jokes. I'm not really offended unless if they are a known black supremacist...in which case, it's not just all in good fun. I think the same is true of white comedians telling ethnic jokes. I personally thought he spent more time making fun of the English! Of course, Don Rickles is Jewish so, that's a whole other can of worms! :D LOL! I just think people need chill, baby.
I never get tired of watching videos of Don. I make people laugh by copying his comedic style. You have to think quickly and have comedic timing. Doing this is my way of honoring him. One word describes Don best: legend. RIP, Don (2017), and Barbara (2021). Married 52 years.
I'm 68, and I still try to imitate Rickles style of humor here in the Phoenix area to this day. In the last 6 years I've been kicked out of 2 gay bars, 2 fast food resteurants, a local major grocery chain, and a car wash..LOL!!
When Don dont get the reaction from the public within 1 second ,he can change the subject so smoothly, and within 2 seconds make them laugh at the new one ,and nobody gets time to realise the bad joke done 3 seconds ago.
I've read comments on other Don R videos on Carson, and I agree when I was younger i didn't get Rickles at all and I was only like 10-15 during these years of shows he did on Carson. But at age 54 it all becomes very funny I not sure why. But he is great and I miss them all.
Man o man D Tickles n R Wms are two of my top five comedians which I can't fathom how much this world is down n out with not having them around anymore. R I P
Every summer, my brothers and I watched this, from 1970-onward, because there was no school then and we were allowed to stay up late. That was when the stars were great and well known. Once I was age 17, I watched this show every season of every year, until Johnny retired. This show is a classic, most of the guests are gone now, which makes this even more to cherish. The show is on the channel called Antenna Tv, M-F.
Miss them all. Rickles was one of a kind too. Wonder what he would come up with about all the IT stuff, the pandemic, The latest presidents. What a plethora of material he would have now. Don, you are missed. 🤣🤣🤣
There's no doubt about it, Don Rickles was the best insult comic there ever was.
Yeah he was one of the best he can fry and pretty good
But behind the scenes they all said he was the nicest person.
Period. There was no one else that came close to Don. He is the master at insult comedy and an absolute legend. I miss him so much.
Agreed
@@adamwhitcomb2387 wonderful man and brilliant

Please add his first appearance and many more of his appearance. Love Rickles and Carson and Ed!
His first Tonight Show appearance is more than likely lost. NBC erased most of the tapes from Carson's first ten years.
@Charles Bailey They reused them for other programs. They quit doing that in the 70s

This segment is hysterically funny. LMAO! Don Rickles was a scream. He delivered every time. Thanks for sharing.
I never get tired of watching videos of Don. I make people laugh by copying his comedic style. You have to think quickly and have comedic timing. Doing this is my way of honoring him. One word describes Don best: legend. RIP, Don (2017), and Barbara (2021). Married 52 years.
I'm 68, and I still try to imitate Rickles style of humor here in the Phoenix area to this day. In the last 6 years I've been kicked out of 2 gay bars, 2 fast food resteurants, a local major grocery chain, and a car wash..LOL!!
The best antidote to politically correctness: Don Rickles.
To Bad we can't just Round up all the Libtards, Tie em Up and Make the Listen to Don Rickles for three or four hours.
Agreed. But if Rickles identified as a leftist they wouldn’t be too offended
Pussy Biden supporters would cry and cancel him and accuse him of being a kkk leader
@@SoggySlopster How much you want to bet that Biden laughed at Rickles when he was on? You know he did.
@@SoggySlopster I support Biden and I love Don Rickles! We need more folks like him!
"Do you want to buy him?" LMAO!! Classic.
Absolute greatness!
When Don dont get the reaction from the public within 1 second ,he can change the subject so smoothly, and within 2 seconds make them laugh at the new one ,and nobody gets time to realise the bad joke done 3 seconds ago.
Oooo...that's true and very funny😜🤣🤣🤣🤣
Robin Williams also did this...
I've read comments on other Don R videos on Carson, and I agree when I was younger i didn't get Rickles at all and I was only like 10-15 during these years of shows he did on Carson. But at age 54 it all becomes very funny I not sure why. But he is great and I miss them all.
It was a treat staying up late to see when Rickles was on the show.
I'm a 61 year old African American man and I could watch Don Rickles every single day. He was the best at ad lib, more than anyone else in history!.
I remember reading that celebrities would be insulted if Don Rickles didn't insult them when he was performing. He was one of the best.
Man o man D Tickles n R Wms are two of my top five comedians which I can't fathom how much this world is down n out with not having them around anymore. R I P
"You wanna buy him?" xD that would so not fly right now...but it's hilarious!
great video love Don Rickles Johnny Carson was an amazing talk show host
he was from a generation that ignored foul language and the need to include body functions to gain a laugh. his speed and timing is sadly missed.
Nostalgia is one of the greatest enemies of the truth.
Every summer, my brothers and I watched this, from 1970-onward, because there was no school then and we were allowed to stay up late. That was when the stars were great and well known. Once I was age 17, I watched this show every season of every year, until Johnny retired. This show is a classic, most of the guests are gone now, which makes this even more to cherish. The show is on the channel called Antenna Tv, M-F.

Rickles was more than a comic, he was the show
@@Miatacrosser True my friend....
He crosses the line and that's where he lives.
This guy was hilarious. Wish I could've seen him live.
I watched don all the way trough my chemo, it killed both the cancer and the chemo. Cancerfree thanks to don!
Wow. Never seen this one before
Miss them all. Rickles was one of a kind too. Wonder what he would come up with about all the IT stuff, the pandemic, The latest presidents. What a plethora of material he would have now. Don, you are missed. 🤣🤣🤣
