      No one else could do that with Johnny. Only Rodney. That's how much Johnny loved his humor. But the other side of that was that we never really got to know the real Rodney. Never a serious interview. He did a couple on Stern though later on. And his childhood and younger years were so miserable for him that he probably preferred not to talk about them anyway on Johnny.

      @Doug Richardson I saw him in 1999 at the MGM Grand in Vegas with a bunch of friends. We ate dinner in one of the MGM's resturaunts before the show and mentioned to the waitress we were seeing his show later and she told us we were sitting in Rodney's booth! She said he usually sat there by himself for breakfast every time he played the MGM Grand. Made our day! I wish we had gone back to that resturaunt the next morning just to see if he showed up.

    4) Joan Rivers
    5) George Carlin
    6) Robin Williams
    7) Jonathan Winters

    • @7Lukibi99Tore7

      The reason that I like George Carlin's comedy much more than Richard Pryor's is because Carlin would very selectively use profanities to underscore the points he was making in his comedy concerts whereas Pryor used profanities way too much and only for the shock value.

    I saw a thing about the making of Caddyshack. Rodney did his lines and thought he had bombed. Nobody laughed. They had to explain to him that it was a live microphone and they couldn't laugh! But he still had a tough time the rest of the movie. Hence his comment at the end where he talks about liking the live performance and the feedback.

      I saw Harold Ramis the director say that they were thinking of Don Rickles for Rodney's part in Caddyshack, but no one was hotter than RD at the time, based on appearances like this, and that's why they tapped him for the role. He took a straight $35k for the role, no points or residuals. He was making $50k a week in Vegas at that point, so he actually lost $ on the movie. Thank God he did it, eh? I mean this was his first movie, he couldn't even act, he just played himself essentially and STOLE the movie from the Great Ted Knight, Bill Murray and Chevy Chase. Plus the gopher ;)

    Rodney Dangerfield is right up there with Richard Pryor, George Carlin and Don Rickles. In the 1960s he had accused one of Johnny’s writers of stealing his jokes. Johnny did not take kindly to this and would not invite Rodney onto the Tonight Show. Eventually Rodney apologized and the rest is history!

    @garysolorzano3216 4 роки тому +2

    From the NY TIMES obituary about how Rodney discovered his No Respect persona: He died October 5, 2004.
    In 1972, after seeing the Francis Ford Coppola movie "The Godfather," he came up with a new angle that would reshape his routine. "All I heard was the word 'respect,"' he recalled. "'You've got to give me respect,' or 'Respect him.' I thought to myself: It sounds like a funny image -- a guy who gets no respect. Maybe I'll write a joke, and I'll try it."
    The shift in his act was subtle, but it struck a chord in fans that far exceeded his expectations. His image as the ultimate loser was established, and, during the next few decades, through his comedy recordings and work in nightclubs, films and television, he emerged as one of this country's best-known comedians.

    He passed away in 2004...82 years old...
    Dangerfield's headstone at Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery
    On November 22, 2001 (his 80th birthday), Dangerfield suffered a mild heart attack while backstage at the Tonight Show. During Dangerfield's hospital stay, the staff were reportedly upset that he smoked marijuana in his room. But he was back at the Tonight Show a year later, performing on his 81st birthday.
    On April 8, 2003, Dangerfield underwent brain surgery to improve blood flow in preparation for heart valve-replacement surgery on a later date. The surgery took place on August 24, 2004.Upon entering the hospital, he uttered another characteristic one-liner when asked how long he would be hospitalized: "If all goes well, about a week. If not, about an hour and a half."
    In September 2004, it was revealed that Dangerfield had been in a coma for several weeks. Afterward, he began breathing on his own and showing signs of awareness when visited by friends. However, he died on October 5, 2004 at the UCLA Medical Center, a month and a half shy of his 83rd birthday, from complications of the surgery he had undergone in August. Dangerfield was interred in the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery in Los Angeles. His headstone reads, "Rodney Dangerfield... There goes the neighborhood."
