I don't care about all the BS that revolves around Woody...the man is funny,super talented,and never boring.....he's entertained me for almost 50 years so long live Woody!! Ps...Play it again Sam is hilarious
Woody with his hero Bob Hope -- Woody really admired many of Bob's films and his performances - I wish they had done the entire show with just Bob because Jimmy Coco was overbearing -- I worked with Woody and he was really a very nice guy to the cast and the crew, very down to earth and likable.

Love the opening graphics---I was too young to watch it in '71 and didn't get to watch until after Johnny moved to the West Coast. This is such a treat! Back when talk shows were great and took longer than an hour...too much rushing with guests and when the guests (even if they weren't "famous", Johnny had a lot of fun with the potato chip lady, etc.).Thanks for including old ads--so fun.

i LOVED the guest host days! WOODY ALLEN hosting the tonight show? wow. john and yoko guest hosted mike douglas for an entire week back in the 70s...can you imagine?

@@robertpoen5383 I don’t agree. It is the hosts role to let the guests have the priority to be funny. And I believe Woody when he says that he basically idolized Hope
These early '70's '"Tonight Show" recordings are so fascinating, because they're so rare. Carson had a revolving group of substitute hosts for years, and I don't know if those shows were ever shown in reruns. Carson's shows were definitely shown in reruns. So if the programs where the guest host was shown only once, it would that show a real rarity. And then ask: WHO had home taping devices in 1971? Virtually no one. This program was either gotten from a network copy, or was recorded on a very early home taping device. As far as I knew, home taping devices began to appear in the mid-'70's. And were considered a luxury item until the mid-'80's. I know I've gone on a bit about the history of home taping devices, and not talked about this show itself. But as time went on, Woody got busy making movies, and stopped appearing on television altogether. And eventually Carson only had two guest hosts, period, Joan Rivers and Jay Leno. (And you know how Joan Rivers was eventually excommunicated from Carson's life in every way possible). Which makes these earlier revolving guest host appearances so unique, and rare. Anyway, I thought the show was fascinating. I knew that Woody was a huge Bob Hope fan. I knew that the show would be interesting. He obviously was enthralled by one of his biggest idols.
Johnny would rotate a lot of different guest hosts. Joey Bishop (even after Joey had his rival ABC show), David Brenner, John Davidson, Burt Reynolds, Bob Newhart. Frank Sinatra even took to the desk for a show in the 1970s (all the guys - except Carroll O'Connor - wore tuxes). Back then, it was the only thing rolling hot on late night TV (save for Dick Cavett, which was a bit more high-brow than Carson). CBS basically ran movies and reruns after the Merv Griffin late night show went off the air By the 80s, it was Leno, David Letterman (before he got his own show) and Rivers with an occasional star filling in.
Radio Free Europe, Radio Free Europe . Remember seeing that commercial when I was a little kid. For years I thought "on Broadway" was a Hungarian song.
Did you see Bob Hope say, "Not while I'm talking -- I'll walk off!" when the crew was calling for a commercial break? Woody stepped in with a nice save.
@@davidamigos.davidamigosnwa4522 25:16.........he seemed a little pissed. "Your all here from Jack Par". As a major employee of NBC (Bob Hope) I bet someone got an ass chewing for that.
@@paulpitt52 Bob had carte blanche at NBC (he basically had a lifetime contract and used to have specials on a regular basis). I think he demanded to be the first guest anytime on Carson and then leave midway through a show (usually with the excuse that he had to leave for a performance). Johnny was not fond of Bob because Johnny liked to be spontaneous (great with ad libs) whereas Bob had to stick to a script (Watch some of his USO specials and you'll see the cue cards and woe if someone went off script). It was said that Bob couldn't ad-lib a fart at a baked bean eating contest (He might be able to come up with a few, but the longer things went he got flustered). There's a great radio clip where Groucho Marx was a guest with Bob and was unhappy to be waiting around, so Groucho began to ad-lib and Bob was unable to keep up and get back on track.
that voice over guy in the adverts must have made milions. great adverts - who knew at one time cakes were good for you and seed tape, wow , the thought just blows my mind.
thank you, AA big time. how I could not've seen this is beyond me.back then , if you missed it you;d wait six months for summer reruns.then you pass out. VCR's were not yet around either.
Tony....People forget that back when we were coming up (I was born in '60) if you missed a show, there was a fairly good chance you would never get another shot. Same for the movies in the big movie palaces (an experience I wish everyone could've had!)...if you didn't catch a movie, which may have had a 2 week run, less if it was a dud, and if a hit it was "HELD OVER 5th SMASH WEEK!" So many movies I missed because I said, "I'll see it on Saturday only to find out the Marquee had another flick playing that Friday. You had to get off your tail and catch 'em before they were gone, usually forever. So many titles from late 60's and early 70's don't even exist anymore, not even on DVD.
Major flashbacks watching this. For some reason, ever since I was a kid I've made fun of a German saying "On Broadway" without remembering where it came from. Now I see it must have been from that radio commercial. We never missed The Tonight Show, even on school nights (a very permissive household).

I'm still stunned the Hostess Cupcake commercial ends with the line "Good nutrition they need"! Were you allowed to say ANYTHING on a commercial back then? OK as for Woody, something very amusing watching him in this hosting position. I love watching old talk shows, notice you don't hear the studio audience screaming in hysterics and applauding like morons after everybody says something? The talk shows today are unwatchable because those dumb audiences are trained to scream and laugh and applaud through the whole damn thing.
THANK YOU! Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who notices that! I've been observing that 💩for years. Try comparing the studio audiences of the original Saturday Night Live in the '70's. If something ain't funny---that audience don't laugh. Apparently, producers realized over the years that it was cheaper to seed the audience by hanging an applause sign and posting a cheerleader, than to hire and maintain competent comedy writers. The first thirty seconds of Kimmel's stupid show sound like a 757 taking off---on the tarmac.
You know he probably did have a thing for younger girls but so what most people that have a problem with that are hypocrites because let’s face it most older men have no problem thinking about or gawking at younger girls as long as they’re not under age but hell playboy used to have 18-year-old so there you go
This is too funny! I was just watching a clip of Bob Hope guesting on Brock Linehan's "Stars In One" and he was going on about James Coco being fat and how he shouldn't eat so much cuz he looked just like Dom DeLuise! That must have been in response to this or was taped shortly after this -- hilarious stuff...
It's funny that Woody said that the family can take the children to see his movie, ""Bananas"" . I remember that the Catholic church condemned the movie.
Was thinking about how the quality of this video is about as good as it was when I first watched these shows as a youngster, under my blanket on a small 13" TV, with a single earphone, afraid to pull out the TV antenna 'ears' too much so as not to be noticed.
The Tonight Show moved to California about a year after this show was broadcast. It was recorded in NYC from the Steve Allen years until 1972 then remained in L.A. until Jimmy Fallon took over as host a few years ago.
Groucho had one on the Kraft Music Hall roast of Johnny about. He said he watched the show three times. First time, Jerry Lewis was guest host, second time, Harry Belafonte was guest host and the third time, Groucho was guest host. Groucho said "I've never known Johnny Carson to host 'The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson' We're honoring a man who doesn't show up to work." followed by "He could be Mayor." (Mayor of New York John Lindsay was sitting next to Johnny).
What? No politic propaganda, no anti-Republican jokes, no sycophantic audience hysterically screeching every time the host makes an attack? Surely this can't be late night TV.
@@robertchallen As opposed to the CLASS ONE, high-octane, professional, pharmaceutical-grade, incessant whining, p*ssing & moaning from Dumbocrats, coast-to-coast.
Hope talented??? Just rich enough to buy writers and ANYTHING else he wanted. Conspiracy theories about the ULTRA program that drugged and programed girls to be sex slaves have told that Hope had one. Research it.
@@VicMartino Hope's sex slave was rescued and restored by a professional de programmer. Then she volunteered to take her story public. I saw her talk and she was totally rehabilitated and quite sane. Her remembrances from living in the Hope's Taluka Lake home in The San Fernando Valley in Calif. were clear and believable. I can't remember her name nor the name of her rescuer as this was many years ago. The name of that group with Ultra in it's name can be found if anyone does the research into that specific conspiracy. They also were into infant abuse in that the brain washing techniques they used were absolutely CHILD ABUSE. Make fun of me all you like I fkg don't care. What I do care about is some monster like Bob Hope getting a free pass only because of money and celebrity. Things like this do happen. The conspiracy theorists may not always have the truth but in this case it was not a theory. It was real. I know because I was a housekeeper for Hope's Taluka Lake neighbor and walking to my car when I worked there I had spoken briefly with that sad young woman. So it was a shock to see her when she escaped and was giving her public talks. I said to myself, " OMG I know her!! She's Hope's live in 'dogwalker'! All true.
This is the show 'bidness' I was raised on. You can't get anything like that today, the audience attitude and times won't make it possible. I would not trade it for today's non-culture.
Never a good idea to have 3 competitive comedians on the same panel together. No straight man, no space, no laughs-- just interruptions. You can see how valuable Carson was to this show when you see shows like this one.
That film had already been released by the time of this program. I thought it was interesting he didn’t bring it up. I know Woody is a bit embarrassed by the film
this is a comedy summit. the old guard (Bob Hope) and the new. Woody Allen .Hope lives up to the hype w/ zingers thru the air, jokes at the ready ''.Bananas'' was wacky in it's time but still hilarious today
I remember once Lisa Simpson saying of freeform jazz "you have to listen to the notes they're not playing". When the other dude was talking about how wholesome and intelligent 17 - 18 year old college girls are, you have to listen to what Woody isn't saying
Watching the commercials from back then (which I do remember watching when I was a youngster) one can surely see the sickness of American marketing, the consumer-zombie horde beginnings, and the initiation of the loss of real-world sanity, soon to be foisted on humans-to-be-fake-plastic-things.
Instant soup, coffee filters, headache pills, and aluminum foil wrap. Sickness? Zombie? Horde? Insanity? I think your language for this stuff is a little florid. However, it proves beyond a doubt that you are a splendid person of advanced moral insight nonetheless, and that in itself makes me feel much happier on this earth. I do thank you!
As you saw, Ed picked up the slack; he was an experienced host in his own right. He did host the show on his own a few times, but I think that was before Johnny came on; probably during the period between Jack Paar left and Johnny began.

First time, Jerry Lewis was guest host, second time, Harry Belafonte was guest host and the third time, Groucho was guest host. Groucho said "I've never known Johnny Carson to host 'The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson' We're honoring a man who doesn't show up to work." followed by "He could be Mayor." (Mayor of New York John Lindsay was sitting next to Johnny).
Aired May 6, 1971
What? No politic propaganda, no anti-Republican jokes, no sycophantic audience hysterically screeching every time the host makes an attack? Surely this can't be late night TV.
Shocking
And no lame right wing whining
@@robertchallen As opposed to the CLASS ONE, high-octane, professional, pharmaceutical-grade, incessant whining, p*ssing & moaning from Dumbocrats, coast-to-coast.
I saw a bob hope movie once and it hit me.
I thought, am I crazy or was woody influenced by hope? As well as Groucho.
Woody Allen is lucky he is talented but more lucky in his career. Now Bob Hope on the other hand is a true all around talent who really paid his dues.
Woody wrote jokes for Bob Hope.
Woody has always admitted he's been very lucky and that at any other time he would have been a hatstand.
Hope talented???
Just rich enough to buy writers and ANYTHING else he wanted.
Conspiracy theories about the ULTRA program that drugged and programed girls to be sex slaves have told that Hope had one.
Research it.
@@joannaedwards6325 HUH? WTF! Yeah ok Joanna now go take your meds lol.
@@VicMartino
Hope's sex slave was rescued and restored by a professional de programmer. Then she volunteered to take her story public.
I saw her talk and she was totally rehabilitated and quite sane. Her remembrances from living in the Hope's Taluka Lake home in The San Fernando Valley in Calif. were clear and believable.
I can't remember her name nor the name of her rescuer as this was many years ago.
The name of that group with Ultra in it's name can be found if anyone does the research into that specific conspiracy. They also were into infant abuse in that the brain washing techniques they used were absolutely CHILD ABUSE.
Make fun of me all you like I fkg don't care. What I do care about is some monster like Bob Hope getting a free pass only because of money and celebrity.
Things like this do happen. The conspiracy theorists may not always have the truth but in this case it was not a theory. It was real.
I know because I was a housekeeper for Hope's Taluka Lake neighbor and walking to my car when I worked there I had spoken briefly with that sad young woman. So it was a shock to see her when she escaped and was giving her public talks. I said to myself, " OMG I know her!! She's Hope's live in 'dogwalker'!
All true.
@@joannaedwards6325 Yeah yeah sure sure sure. Tell me more. No please don't!
This is the show 'bidness' I was raised on. You can't get anything like that today, the audience attitude and times won't make it possible. I would not trade it for today's non-culture.
Never a good idea to have 3 competitive comedians on the same panel together. No straight man, no space, no laughs-- just interruptions. You can see how valuable Carson was to this show when you see shows like this one.
❤❤
WOW, not SCTV with Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas imitating Bob Hope and Woody Allen! Instead, it's the real deal.
Woody is a talented clarinet-player as well. He should work togehter with the clarinet-gigant Martin Schmidt-Hahn
Game show host Chuck Woolery, pre-Wheel of Fortune, at 27:20.
and very pre Scrabble
Truly FAB!
"Naturally Stoned!"
And Chuck was just as handsome in his older years.😜
James Coco died of a heart attack at the age of 56.
You could tell his breathing and heart labored.
Talk about rare.
May 6, 1971
I wonder if this chat lead Woody to do “What’s up Tiger Lilly”?
That film had already been released by the time of this program. I thought it was interesting he didn’t bring it up. I know Woody is a bit embarrassed by the film
I attended a show in July 1971. Luckily Johnny was there.
this is a comedy summit. the old guard (Bob Hope) and the new. Woody Allen .Hope lives up to the hype w/ zingers thru the air, jokes at the ready ''.Bananas'' was wacky in it's time but still hilarious today
Yes..and play it again Sam was hilarious
GOOD SHOW ! SATURDAY 8/6/22 AUGUST 6, 2022
I remember once Lisa Simpson saying of freeform jazz "you have to listen to the notes they're not playing". When the other dude was talking about how wholesome and intelligent 17 - 18 year old college girls are, you have to listen to what Woody isn't saying
Vespray was a pesticide.
Woody at 7:27
Will Law I guess he always liked them at that age
and 04:27
It's just humor.
Watching the commercials from back then (which I do remember watching when I was a youngster) one can surely see the sickness of American marketing, the consumer-zombie horde beginnings, and the initiation of the loss of real-world sanity, soon to be foisted on humans-to-be-fake-plastic-things.
Instant soup, coffee filters, headache pills, and aluminum foil wrap. Sickness? Zombie? Horde? Insanity? I think your language for this stuff is a little florid. However, it proves beyond a doubt that you are a splendid person of advanced moral insight nonetheless, and that in itself makes me feel much happier on this earth. I do thank you!
Woody is not a very good host but he's still an engaging and interesting figure. He's really fan geeking out with Bob Hope lol.
As you saw, Ed picked up the slack; he was an experienced host in his own right. He did host the show on his own a few times, but I think that was before Johnny came on; probably during the period between Jack Paar left and Johnny began.
Hope was his idol.
Be nice if I could read the promo... Since it's dead center.
