Guy on the left was Ed McMahon. Check out the old SNL skits where Dana Carvey did Johnny Carson and Phil Hartman did Ed McMahon. Carvey spun out a ‘Carsinio’ version of this where he blended Carson and Arsenio Hall.
I saw him in 1987 in NY. The air conditioning at the venue was broken and it was burning. He was so friggin funny, I couldn’t catch my breath from laughing. It was like a machine gun of one liners. It was amazing. My girlfriend wasn’t laughing. I knew then and there she wasn’t right for me. She’s gone.
Hello from Ontario Canada I am 44 and I grew up watching Rodney Dangerfield , Richard Pryor , Eddy Murphy and George Carlin just too name a few this is when comedy was comedy back then you could make jokes about people and other things and everyone understood it was comedy FYI Ed McMahon which is the guy on the left whom is Johnny Carsons sidekick Ed McMahon went on too host Star search in the 80s as well which was the very first talent show .
Great reaction guys! 😁 A friend of mine actually partied with Rodney after a show. He told me that Rodney was even funnier off stage while hangin’ at the bar! 🤣
Rodney was known to be a lot of fun off stage as well, he’s one of those people you’ll never hear bad things about, he was known for being a really good person. I remember hearing him on the Howard Stern Show talking about how much he loved weed, and had been smoking it since his teens. He was in his 80’s and said he still smoked pot a few times everyday.
If you noticed, and if you didn't rewatch and see, but after his jokes, he listens to the crowd to hear if they laugh or not and if so, how loud. If he has them going, he continues but if they are so so or not much noise, he moves to the next set and goes again. That's a true pro. Always listen to your crowd and give them what they want. That's how you get on top and stay there. Rodney was a master at it for a few decades and is known as one of the all time greats of Comedy for it!
More Tonight Show Rodney, many great ones and it's always too see Johnny Carson, the all time king of late night show hosts. The big guy that you didn't know when Rodney walked over to sit down was Ed McMahon, Johnny's long time side kick. They were like peanut butter and jelly together, the perfect match and together for like 25 years until Carson retired I think in 93.✌️☮️💕
you need to check out any Robin Williams full interview on Johnny Carson (1984) but one you chose is hilarious. Carson can't keep up. Williams first ever time on the set of the Carson show is hysterical
Guys. Just subscribed and started going through your posted videos. I notice you haven't done any Steven Wright. Wright is missed by most reactors. He's an extremely deadpan, brilliant comic who thinks of things in everyday life and puts his spin on them. Some reactors watch him with their jaws hanging open because they just don't get the jokes. (Some reactors are a bit dense.) If you want to try someone who's extremely unique, no one is like Steven Wright.
Back in the 70s and 80s, it was pretty standard when someone would say, "He's so fat" or "She's so ugly" or "He's sooooo slow" for the audience to shout, "How fat was he?" "How ugly was she?" and so on. And the person would say "He" or "She" was soooo (whatever) and then punch line it. I still do this. If you're with a group of older people, try it out. It might have started on the Match Game. Or it may have started with 'the dozens'. That's a guess.
@ 3:47 As someone below said that's Ed McMahon, Johnny's longtime side-kick and announcer of each show. Here is a brief one minute video of a typical Johnny Carson show intro by him... ua-cam.com/video/WZKmsA8bzao/v-deo.html and pay close attention to his regular, famous line at 0:25. If you guys have not seen the movie "The Shining" (1980) yet, that's good! You'll see what I mean when you watch The Shining later... (don't want to spoil it!) Ed was a drinker, quite tipsy on each show. 😁👍
The dude to the left of Rodney is/was Ed McMahon Johnny's side kick.
... and host of Star Search for many years, not to mention endless Sweepstakes and Life Insurance commercials.
Yes! You are correct, sir!
He issued two albums on Arista and Casablanca in 1980.

The guy on the left is Ed McMahon. Co-host with Johnny Carson, and Publisher's Clearing House spokesperson afterwards.
Carol Burnett elephant story and the dentist sketches. Mama's family Sorry sketch

You guys need to check out Don Rickles when he is on Johnny Carson. You'll love him!
Listening to Rodney got me thanking about him doing something with Tracy Morgan, if Rodney was still here.
No Respect is his tm.

Just subscribed. Dig you guys. I grew up watching this live. I am so happy the next generation are finding the GREATS.
I hope that you guys listen to Don Rickles. His humor makes fun of prejudice. He's hilarious 😂
React to Tommy Smothers doing an imitation of Johnny Carson on the Johnny Carson show it's spot-on
Ed McMahon is big guy on the left.
"FINALLY SOME RESPECT" reads his tombstone..he died of Cancer in 2000.
His "shtick" was definitely self deprecation. He did it really well. You might like 'Back to School'.
yoooo you guys gotta check out George Carlin - The Trillion Daves

Ed McMahon is the sidekick
He would’ve been canceled in a nanosecond today, but see how the audience then was all in.
Ed McMahon who is Johnny's side kick
Ed McMan
Guys the GAIN ON Rodney is too low.
THESE GUYS SOUND CANADIAN. ANYONE KNOW? FUNNY SOUNDING.
Where are you two from?
Henny Youngman step aside.
Maybe but Robin William made Carson roll over
This is part #1 and there is a part #2
Take a look
ua-cam.com/video/id5b0PYgvwo/v-deo.html
