- I was sure someone would have uploaded this by now, but it looks like no one has yet.
Art had been on Dave's Late Night ten times before his first Tonight Show appearance in January 1990, so the TS bookers decided to get on the bandwagon.
This was Art's second guest appearance on Johnny, and it was notable at the time for certain words that the censors evidently allowed to slip through.
One of the most naturally and genuinely funny and entertaining people.
100% comedy. No politics. We miss you Johnny!
This clip disappeared from UA-cam, and I've been looking for it for a long time. Thank you for uploading this!!!!
Uh oh. Hope this one survives.
Loved that guy. So many great stories told only the way he could.
Art is so naturally funny and charismatic - just imagine if he had writers and an agent-he could have been big in entertainment. As it stands, he was one of the best talk show guests ever.
WWF fans know this man well from King of the Ring 1994:
"Hey, how much does this guy weigh?"
Unbleeped God Damn, good stuff. WOW
Art was WONDERFUL
Loved Art. He never fails to make me bust out laughing. 😂
Thanks for this! I had completely forgotten about Art Donavan, but he was one of my favorite guests back in the day.
I uploaded all of his Letterman appearances awhile back. Two-part compilation.
@@dongiller Good to know. I'll be checking it out.
That quip from Johnny about the "god damn" face masks.....lol, that was gold......classic Carson right there lol.
😅ㅛㅅ
Great timing by Johnny there 🤣
Man, I am from Baltimore, those were the days.
Him and bob euker are the best storytellers
Yesterday's
What a treasure Art was, lol
Wow - back when you could see someone like Double Bass legend Milt Hinton on the couch of the Tonight Show -
So this was off-air? Holy shit! 🙂
Geez, he was funny. Served 4 years in the USMC in the Pacific Theater, WW2.
He served there then as well
You were mentioned on Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal Podcast. God bless you, Don
Cool! When, and do you have a link?
@@dongiller Mr. Giller, the late great Mr. Pat Cooper has passed away. I think you should upload some Cooper-Letterman appearances in his honor.
@@NoOne-kr4jc No longer doable, unfortunately.
@@dongiller Letterman's people have you on a leash?
@@NoOne-kr4jc I wouldn’t describe it that way.
Amazing, Don! 🔥🔥
Art was a great Letterman guest too.
Thanks Don
All of Art’s Dave appearances are in a two-part compilation,
I miss Art. I’d watch his show in Baltimore/DC and he’d always get in trouble for cussing!
4:34 It sounds like they may have edited “Jesus!” into “Geez!” by dubbing in laughter over the second syllable, which makes the lack of bleeping for the other words even stranger.
Doubt they’d go to so much trouble. It sounds like Art caught himself and only said “Geez.”
Mighty good 👍😊.
"How much does this guy weigh?!"
He looks like a business man
He was Marine in Ww2 Luzon and Iwo Jima.
Thanks for sharing this. How did the censors miss those?
The censors likely didn't miss it. "The Tonight Show" taped from 5:30 to 6:30 pm in Burbank--9:30 pm in the Eastern time zone. So if any editing had to be done, they had two hours to do it before the show went on the air. And in those days, editing was still a very slow, time-consuming process. So it was more of a matter of the editing team looking at the clock and saying "the hell with it" and just airing the show as-is in the Eastern time zone. (11:30 pm is part of what the FCC declares "safe haven time" and they actually don't enforce any restrictions at that hour; any bleeping or censoring at that time of night on network television is just done as a courtesy to the sponsors, more than anything.)
Salami, bologna and hot sauce? Sounds good if you add mayo. Thanks, Don!
In his book Fatso, he said he would fill the hotel bathtub with ice and beer. 🍻😊
This is great! How did you get the uncensored broadcast of this? I would think "GD" and "sh!t" would have been bleeped. 🤣
Believe it or not, this _is_ what was broadcast.
@@dongiller Wow...that's great! LOL - thanks!!
@@privatepenguin3137I saw Art many times on talk shows, but I somehow missed this one. I'm so glad to see it now for the first time. 😊👍
Hey Don, you know how Dave was a big Reds fan, right? Do you know when he talked about thier old anmouncer Joe Nuxhall who would sign off by saying "this is the Old Lefthander rounding third and heading for home"
I know i heard Dave say that before and im wondering if he referenced it multiple times or if i just happened to see it the one time
Could have been Clooney or Sarah Jessica Parker since they are both from the Cincinnati area
I found one show when he used that line - at the end of October 12, 1994: “So until tomorrow night, from Riverfront Stadium and this is the old lefthander rounding third and heading home for now. Good night, everybody!”
Nice catch. :)
@@dongiller awesome, thanks!
can you make a collection of the julia roberts appearances on the late show
No longer, unfortunately.
Art was an awesome character. He wrote a book about his exploits called Fatso.
Is that Paula Poundstone next to Art?
It is.
Paula poundstone lol
From The Boogie down
The greatest Colt to ever announce for WWE! So much better than Pat McAfee
He was better on Letterman.
Bet Paula Poundstone wishes she was as funny as Art Donovan! Mitch Banner Linville NC
or as good looking
@@scottclark7592 oooh, that's mean 😆😆😆😆😆, but accurate! Mitch Banner Linville NC
