Notice how at 1:26 you can see Ed's eyes move over to the side monitor, as it was no surprise to him that Johnny would appear, he knew well in advance, but you can just see him glancing over knowing this was the moment Johnny would walk on stage.
Airdate is probably 9/14/85 or 9/21/85. Ed and Johnny started in 1958 on Who Do You Trust(game show, later known as Do You Trust Your Wife). Dick Clark and Ed were still doing the blooper show as a weekly NBC series in 1985-86.
1:59 : I think it occurred AFTER word got leaked that she was hosting her own show without his blessing, Johnny relieved her from guest hosting duties, never to talk to her again and viewed as an bad person, in Johnny's mind.
I don't think he would bother to mention her name after he found out. This was probably before he found out, because he's making a joke about sharing a studio with her.
You got that right I don't care if it was Ed McMahon or Arsenio Hall hosting the show, Star Search is BETTER than the OVERRATED American Idol and Ryan Seacrest is overrated as well
Fred DeCordova pretty much died penniless as well, Johnny sent his widow a check. I think for a lot of people, they thought the good times and money would never end.
He died like Sammy Davis Jr. He spent all his money while he was alive and died owing the IRS money. That is how you do it.. If you know you got limited time BORROW BORROW BORROW and LIE to the iRS and have a letter ready when you die and your lawyer can send them to the banks and Gment
Very true. Unfortunately older people are look down upon nowadays which is very sad and a shame. Just no respect for humanity and to our previous generation. And what's stupid is we're all going to be old anyways! Freakin superficial childish idiots!
R.I.P. to both Johnny Carson and Ed McMahon. The ultimate Batman and Robin of Late Night TV.
There's no better pair that I watch on late night!
and Kenny Rogers
Ed McMahon, Johnny Carson and Dick Clark - The NBC trio on the Star Search stage. Awesome!
Star Search's network of record was CBS
I would love to see this whole episode

TV GOLD! Nothing more can be said.
Heeeeeere's Johnny!
I just love this theme!!! :) I miss that era. Such a colorful time.
100% class.
Before there was #AmericanIdol, and Ryan Seacrest, there was the #OG of TV talent shows: #StarSearch and Ed McMahon!
In my opinion the old 'Star Search' was more interesting than the reality shows of the present day.
Dick Clark certainly got younger every year.
Golden child brought me here

Interesting to see two men kiss in 1986....especially Johnny Carson who was known for not showing his emotions.
(1:34)
Here's Johnny!
Well, that was a surprise.
he still snuck up on him!
old guys still rule
You got that right

yes, agree....i wonder where they got the idea? hmmmmmm.
Let the church say amen!
Ed's 35th year in television and how in the world did he go broke?
Fred DeCordova pretty much died penniless as well, Johnny sent his widow a check. I think for a lot of people, they thought the good times and money would never end.
Lived above his means and the divorces took a toll
@@paulmorris4880 Ed McMahohn died with a lot more money than DeCordova, but only in the millions.
