My father adored Bob Newhart. When we were little kids, back in the 60s, he used to play his records particularly over Christmas time. I still remember those times with great happiness. In my minds eye, I can still hear my Dad laughing heartily at ‘The Driving Instructor’, the story of how tobacco was introduced and the incompetent submarine commander.
Fantastic interview. Laughed so long my cheeks hurt! R.I.P., Bob, you are one of my all-time favorites. There will never be another, as great as you. ❤
I memorized all of his albums back in the 60s and 70s. Loved the guy...as does the whole world. Humor and Humility mixed together. That's who Bob was to me, and I think maybe a great deal of his fans. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the world was like Bob?!?
I love this guy, and it hurts to see him getting so old--and this was five years ago. Great sense of humor and comic delivery. Seems to be a genuinely nice man.
Bob Newhart is now 90 years old. I guess he was about 85 when they taped these? There's not even a nick in the blade of his razor-sharp wit. Who can still be this amazing this late in life?
I remember Bob talking about the 'executives' trying to fix his show: "Bob, could you talk a little faster - those pauses slow things down" & "we've decided to add a kid to the show" to which Bob replied "What a wonderful idea - who are you going to get to play Bob". Bob knew his humor, knew what was funny, and knew what he wanted. I grew up listening to him on the radio (plug: CKCK/CK62 from out of Regina); I had insomnia and CK62 had a 2 hour comedy show from like 1:00am to 3:00am. Thanks for the memories.
@GENERAL DISARRAY'S BOSS 83 Ambien which is now a generic. All the doctors say that using it for more than a couple months is bad for you - bullshit, not sleeping for years is BAD for you. I have been using Ambien for almost 30 years - any personality issues are mine and do not belong to the drug.
I never really cared so much for Bobs shows, but watching these interviews with Craig has given me a whole new appreciation for Bob Newhart! He really is funny, fast with the wit, and personable.
Look how in tune they are with the jokes, the subtlety of Craig's little "looks", like when Bob said, "I never thought I'd meet a Queen..." It's great to see!!
My daughter avised me to watch a couple of modern day comedians gave me the names and 10 minutes in I had not smiled. I sit here listening to these 2 and am neaar crying with laughter.
Craig Ferguson is the best talk show I've ever seen...He's so darn funny I just wished He would still be on...but these replays are the next best thing...wherever He is I know Hes making people laugh!!! He's a naturally funny man!!!
Well, it took Bob dying for me to find this out, but there's a lot of stuff on UA-cam (like this) that I had no idea existed. It's helping me deal with the loss, honestly - kinda like a wake but he's the one making us laugh through the sadness... I'm gonna watch everything I can and it looks like that will take a while. Thanks, Bob. You da man.
Nope. A friend who was a huge fan got tickets to see him live in Toronto around 1988 and she'd barely talk about it the next day. She said he was foul mouthed and had a nasty temperament that wasn't part of the show. He just came across as a total 180 to the sitcoms she watched all the time. This wasn't the Bob Newhart of his TV shows and she was really upset, more than annoyed. She never watched another Newhart show after that.
Classic Bob…relaxed and Sharp as a Tack! Have his albums, loved his TV shows and went Nuts with joy to see him on TBBT❣️He will have Heaven in belly aching laughter. 😂 And will remain Loved and enjoyed for decades to come. Thank You Bob THANK YOU❣️
I’m Larry. This is my brother, Darryl, and this is my other brother, Darryl. Bob must’ve written that into the show. He’s a true comedy genius. Everything he says cracks me up!
I was at a bad point in my life -- undiagnosed diabetes, actually no big deal, unless untreated -- and Craig, every night, made life worth living and gave me something to look forward to. The show was always a silly, f*ck it ROMP, but in the interviews, like with Newhart, he had an intuitive skill for finding the best in his guests and drawing it out -- simply by making them feel as at ease as the audience at home. Never saw him "muff" one. Greatness, Craig. Thanks.
The amazing thing about Bob is that if not for a quirk of fate, he would have spent his life as an accountant in Chicago. He just happened to know a guy from college who got into the radio business and when the guy was looking for guest for his show he recalled that Bob was always funny in school. So he invited Bob on his Chicago radio show and the rest is his as they say.
Only Bob Newhart could tell a tell show host I had a cat once with a straight face and have an entire audience laugh at it.. He's still one of the best ever, Meow - RIP.
Well...sometimes a little politics...but not the trashing and outright lying that goes on today. Still, Ferguson was the best late night show of all that were on at the time. All the others were way too political, like they were working for the Dems. You go to a show like this to be entertained, not to get lectured on PC/SJW Bull Shit!!
Old Yeller's Channel Lighten up, Francis. Reality doesn’t comport to your reactionary nonsense. You think Craig would be giving Trump or anyone on the right a moments rest if he was still on the air? He’d be ripping the GOP a new asshole every chance he got.
I went back and watched all his shows from 2005 to his final - I was hiding from the new normal. Then I found the British show QI and watched all 15 years of the their shows.
@@oldyellerschannel4676 make fun of the president okay, but "omg cry with me during this segment and then cheer when I suggest that you vote for [this person]" isn't really okay. Which is why I quit watching those shows. Even John Oliver, since the guys that hire him donated over 20 million to Hillary, it's too biased. Silly jokes is the way to go, people pretend to be smart or interesting, and Craig was the last interesting host.
Bob always reminded me of that one teacher you had in high school who could drone on for a few minutes until the class fell into a stupor, then would just, out of the blue, say the weirdest, funniest thing you had ever heard...It would go over the heads of most people. but if you were lucky enough to catch it, you would never forget it, and you would never really look at life in the same way again...
Interesting. Seeing Bob Newhart always reminds me of one of my high school English teachers. They look so much alike, especially when Bob puts on his cardigan in the Bob Newhart Show.
I think I would have enjoyed school more if Bob Newhart had been my teacher. Unfortunately, I had more of the Ben Stein- Ferris Bueller's Day Off version (😩😝😒).
I had a run in with Mr Newhart, back in 1971 or 72. LA Sports Arena Car Show. My wife and I were looking at a Black Lamborghini Miura, by her side was none other than Bob Newhart. He had the number #1 on TV and no one recognized him but me. He looked at me with, oh no eyes aNd placed a Finger over his lips pleading not to say anything. I lip-synced ok. He did it back , thank you. We just stood there looking the Black Lamborghini. As he walked way still not being recognized I told my wife.
First, Martin Mull.. and then Bob Newhart. We just lost two of the greatest masters of understated comedy of all time. My dad was a young man when Bob’s first albums came out. And he shared those with me, as I enjoyed his first series every week after Mary Tyler Moore. I could go on forever, I’ll just say look up all the Newhart clips you can. And I’d say the same about Mull.. in fact, I do.
I played the Hi Bob drinking game a long long time ago. Loved the show, loved Bob, loved the game you took a shot or a hit everytime someone said Hi Bob. They said Hi Bob a lot on that show. It was a fun time.
Craig isn't intimidated by Bob. They are both having a great time and you can tell Bob is impressed with Craig and sees him as a comedy equal. Very different styles but their humor still meshes.
With that great CBS Saturday night lineup in the early to mid 70's, there was no reason for the other networks to have programming on that night, really.
It's when working with a real pro like Bob that you realize how fast Craig really is. There were some pretty slick interactions here. RIP Bob, I remember when the albums came out, good times.
A national treasure for sure! RiP Bob! Newhart was a fabulous show! The 3 Daryl’s were hilarious! I was young watching that show but it was such good clean humor I loved it!
17:28 - "Rid the world of skeet." This is the funniest stuff I've seen in ages. Ferguson gives plenty of space for Newhart's persona to be front and center and the humor flows naturally. Ferguson was a terrific host who could shift gears depending on the guest; with Newhart he's relaxed, but then with Don Rickles he's quicker and more aggressive.
Bob used to come into my work in Beverly Hills (it was a Staples store) and the first time I met him, I couldn't resist saying "Hi, Bob!". And he said "I wish I could have found a way to get paid every time someone played that game. I would have made more money than I did in television!" Super nice guy and always a quick wit.
I would've loved to see Dean Martin on this show. Am sure Craig and him would have a blast! Saw some Bob Newhart sketches. very nice man. i miss the oldtimers =) The last bit is awesome
the finally of the NEWHART show was the best ending ever. when he woke up in bed next to Suzanne Pleshette, and the new show was all just a dream of his character from the original Bob Newhart show I died laughing. when he was don't telling his wife about the dream and she asked if he was married in the dream and he said yes and she asked if it was to her and bob paused, and said, no I was married to a blond.......funniest TV ever.
Agreed. I can’t think about Newhart without remembering that scene. It was hilarious. I’m sure it stands alone as funny. But, to really appreciate the impact of the final Newhart episode on those of us watching it at the time you need to know why it was so funny, and why it was so widely considered genius. Clue: connection between Newhart finale & Bobby’s return to the TV show Dallas after two years dead. In this case case you really DID have to be there!!” 🤣😲😂!! Thank you for years of laughs Bob Newhart!
He was the MASTER of that bit. Perfect timing, the way he allows the audience to create the other side of the conversation, that stutter that implies so much. Pure gold!

so I was technically right hahah, thanks for correcting!
The JayLeno Fly love you man! Keep making amazing videos!!
You should put the thing in the title earlier in the video so we didn't have to watch the whole thing.
It would save a lot of time.
Watching this today, Monday July 22nd 2024. I watched in the online news a few days ago that he had passed away at 94. Rest in peace, Bob.
RIP Bob...you were 1 of the greats. Say Hi to Betty White for us...
We miss you both.
And don rickles
And Suzanne.
Bobby & Suzanner, Jack, Marcia, Peter and Bill were the absolute best ever.
So sad Bob has passed, what a unique sense of humour that will never be matched!
My father adored Bob Newhart. When we were little kids, back in the 60s, he used to play his records particularly over Christmas time. I still remember those times with great happiness. In my minds eye, I can still hear my Dad laughing heartily at ‘The Driving Instructor’, the story of how tobacco was introduced and the incompetent submarine commander.
We've lost true legends in Newhart, Van Dyke and Betty White.

Fantastic interview. Laughed so long my cheeks hurt! R.I.P., Bob, you are one of my all-time favorites. There will never be another, as great as you. ❤
I memorized all of his albums back in the 60s and 70s. Loved the guy...as does the whole world. Humor and Humility mixed together. That's who Bob was to me, and I think maybe a great deal of his fans. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the world was like Bob?!?
2023, still watching him. Just finished The Bob Newhart Show and now watching Newhart. It's still great stuff!
On You Tube, the "OUT-TAKES OF NEWHART" can be viewed. Prepare to
laugh. Tom Poston had some great scenes, too.
I bought a copy of his album back in the 1960's... love it and I still have it!
His "driving instructor" and "tobacco" skits are brilliant.
Bob - a rare talent that we were very lucky to have experienced in this short time on this world.
My father used to have his records, I listened to them as a child across the pond in UK. Crying with laughter. Wonderful stuff!
I love this guy, and it hurts to see him getting so old--and this was five years ago. Great sense of humor and comic delivery. Seems to be a genuinely nice man.
Bro the FINAL episode was Dec. 2014. Methinks this was even further back than that.
Definitely agree on all fronts. I got serious case of nostalgia watching this.
I saw on another website that Newhart's wife, Ginny past away in April of this year.
I think he might be getting past his prime, unfortunately.
...
...
Then, there's that Bob Newhart.
Bob Newhart is a comedic genius. So glad I grew up with his comedy.
And man, I miss Craig's show so much. another original comic genius.
Both love the awkward pause.
I was just thinking, I love Bob Newhart, also missing Craig’s show as well. What funny men they both are.
Missing Craig too
I loved Bob decades now. Love how Craig truly cracks Bob up. Both are great comedians
Could watch Bob Newhart forever. R.I.P.
Mellow mid-westwrner

Bob Newhart is now 90 years old. I guess he was about 85 when they taped these? There's not even a nick in the blade of his razor-sharp wit. Who can still be this amazing this late in life?
Don Rickles was still sharp into his old age. RIP.
@@willer3399 Truth
Dick Van Dyke's in his 90s and still just fine. He said it's due to staying active, keeping moving.
His dear friend Don Rickles.
@@LynxSouth its very true.mentally and physically.
Bob Newhart is a true comedian, the likes of which we may never see again. What a class act.
True. I played my old copy of "The Button-down Mind of Bob Newhart" and they SCREAMED with laughter.
Probably not, but keep an eye on norm.
Good show for sure
One is enough. He won't die.
@@Schnozwangler He died before Bob.
Thank you for all the laughter over the years Bob❤👏❤️
Bob Newhart is a national treasure.
One of the greatest but underrated comedians of all time. No one does subtle humor better.
Not underrated. One of the greats. Two smash TV shows, an influential comic innovator.
A gentle man. Full of mirth. Enjoyed the humor of his own jokes in the moment; charmed me all the way. Eyes laughing at his humor.
One of the last of the greats. Sharp, clean, funny, cerebral. No swearing or foul language. See, it can be done!
Newhart rules!
That dry sense of humor from guys like Newhart and Steven Wright is a lost art. We need more guys like them.
Huh?Humor?
Check out Nate Bargatze. He is younger and has a pretty dry sense of humor.
I have to go back DJ he
then yhey wouldnt be as funny
@@tomgardner8825 Funny is funny, no matter how many of them there are.
"I never thought it would end this way..." I have always loved the way this man's mind works. Such a sharp wit. He made this world a funnier place.
Newhart is brilliant. Ferguson does a stellar job of keeping up.
Yes! And there was an extra layer of enjoyment seeing the two of them having a genuinely good time, as well. RIP BOB Newhart.

I never really cared so much for Bobs shows, but watching these interviews with Craig has given me a whole new appreciation for Bob Newhart! He really is funny, fast with the wit, and personable.
His TBBT bits are great, he his the perfect delivery for someone being burdened by Sheldon's mind.
Look how in tune they are with the jokes, the subtlety of Craig's little "looks", like when Bob said, "I never thought I'd meet a Queen..." It's great to see!!
That it so funny, the way they interact there.
Bob calming style of comic performances are just adorable!

This is the funniest interview with Bob Newhart hands down!

Bob add a great stress relief to my life with his wonderful shows.
he's always kept his comedy clean and relatable. love his show in Chicago.
Nope. A friend who was a huge fan got tickets to see him live in Toronto around 1988 and she'd barely talk about it the next day.

I am so old, I loved Craig Ferguson, Tom Snyder, and in different ways, Bob Newhart.

Classic Bob…relaxed and Sharp as a Tack! Have his albums, loved his TV shows and went Nuts with joy to see him on TBBT❣️He will have Heaven in belly aching laughter. 😂 And will remain Loved and enjoyed for decades to come. Thank You Bob THANK YOU❣️
This is another example of why Craig was a Master amongst Masters.
I’m Larry. This is my brother, Darryl, and this is my other brother, Darryl.
Bob must’ve written that into the show. He’s a true comedy genius. Everything he says cracks me up!
It will be a sad day when we lose Bob. Brought so much humor, still can't believe he was best friends with Rickles. Live long Bob, we love you!!!
Yeah, yin and yang
Agreed: Him and Carol.....I think Carol, when she goes, will be very very hard
May Bob rest in peace 😢
Sadly, the time has come. I have that brown DVD box set; time to watch them again.
For years, I said that whenever a comedy legend passed. I'm glad we got him as long as we did. He was the best.
Bob is a legend. Period
I am so glad you archived all these appearances. I never watched Craig back in the past. He’s an amazing talk-show host. So enjoyable!
Craig Ferguson is a genuinely good-hearted host that brings out the best in his guests.
Newhart's comedic timing and delivery: genius.
NOBODY on any of today's talk shows makes me laugh like Craig does.
Graham Norton.
AGREED Wayne A. Graham is entertaining, but not as funny as Craig.
@@missmayflower Graham not as funny or quick as Craig but very funny.

Seth has an air of silliness that’s better than the others, since the ‘isolation’. Yes Craig is unparalleled.💙🤟🏾👌🏽
STILL the best late night program ever made. I really miss Craig and Geoff
The amazing thing about Bob is that if not for a quirk of fate, he would have spent his life as an accountant in Chicago.

The only guy that wasnt just listening to legends being guests, but was fully in the conversations and was equaly funny! Don, Larry, Bob e.t.c.
Long live the Bob Newhart generation.They have integrity, characher, values and comedy. Listen and take to heart what our elders have to say.
Thank you
Greatest comedy moment in history. Suzanne Pleashett as guest. Newhart was all a dream, Bob.
Yeah, they cut out the part where Craig wakes up like Bob did and he has the snow globe like in St. Elsewhere but ...
Three appearances in one year is proof positive that Bob Newhart loved being on the show with Craig.
Only Bob Newhart could tell a tell show host I had a cat once with a straight face and have an entire audience laugh at it.. He's still one of the best ever, Meow - RIP.
"A strong line-up"? Oh my gosh, that was a killer line-up!!
Thanks for the triple combo. What a hilarious ending to riff on the Newhart show. Thanks for all the work you have put into making these compilations.
What add to this interview is the respect that Craig shows to Bob Newhart.
I love Bob Newhart & his shows no matter if it's on reruns
The chemistry between these guys is magical.
Luke Fallon The magic is that Craig gets Present with every guest and finds the magic in each of them. It’s why he is so good.
I miss Craig's show...just silly humor, no politics.
Well...sometimes a little politics...but not the trashing and outright lying that goes on today.
Still, Ferguson was the best late night show of all that were on at the time.
All the others were way too political, like they were working for the Dems.

Sounds like Mr. Lawrence from Clarence Fulton Secondary in Vernon, BC, circa the 80s. Funny man, 'e was!
Actually I quite like the way you put that
Great analogy, Sir.
Interesting. Seeing Bob Newhart always reminds me of one of my high school English teachers. They look so much alike, especially when Bob puts on his cardigan in the Bob Newhart Show.
I think I would have enjoyed school more if Bob Newhart had been my teacher. Unfortunately, I had more of the Ben Stein- Ferris Bueller's Day Off version (😩😝😒).
I had a run in with Mr Newhart, back in 1971 or 72. LA Sports Arena Car Show. My wife and I were looking at a Black Lamborghini Miura, by her side was none other than Bob Newhart.

I always loved that quiet cute encounter. A great memory.
Bob perfected the telephone gag. ... No one's done it better.
First, Martin Mull.. and then Bob Newhart. We just lost two of the greatest masters of understated comedy of all time. My dad was a young man when Bob’s first albums came out. And he shared those with me, as I enjoyed his first series every week after Mary Tyler Moore. I could go on forever, I’ll just say look up all the Newhart clips you can. And I’d say the same about Mull.. in fact, I do.
Bob Newhart gives me hope for my future. Timing is still perfect on the Fred Amsterdam joke. 85. My man!!

Bob Newhart! What am amazing guest! So much fun to listen to what he has to say!
Gosh I MISS Bob Newhart in his own Show!!!! He is just PERFECTION in HIS DELIVERY!!!! LOVE and MISS YOU BOB!!!!

So long Bob 🕊️
All In The Family, MASH, Bob Newhart, Carol Burnett…what a line up! Not much on cable tv anymore…
Let’s not forget the Mary Tyler Moore Show!!❤❤❤

It's when working with a real pro like Bob that you realize how fast Craig really is.

RIP Bob, I remember when the albums came out, good times.
A national treasure for sure! RiP Bob! Newhart was a fabulous show! The 3 Daryl’s were hilarious!
I was young watching that show but it was such good clean humor I loved it!
17:28 - "Rid the world of skeet." This is the funniest stuff I've seen in ages. Ferguson gives plenty of space for Newhart's persona to be front and center and the humor flows naturally.

The great skeet invasion of 2014
I could write a phD dissertation on the subject of Craig's notes destructions. Yup.
Go Bob! One of the rare times the Notes were mentioned.
Dude, he murders with a simple look to the side. Friggin legendary.
Newhart is a master of comedic timing.
Bob Newhart is a comedy genius! His timing is flawless.
I used to love Bob on Ed Sullivan when he did his one sided phone calls. Loved both of his shows, too.
love this show no idea why i didnt watch when it was on ive been on a yt marathon of it thank you for sharing
It's kind of impossible to watch just one clip of Craig. Fastest wit in the business.
Bob used to come into my work in Beverly Hills (it was a Staples store) and the first time I met him, I couldn't resist saying "Hi, Bob!". And he said "I wish I could have found a way to get paid every time someone played that game. I would have made more money than I did in television!"
Super nice guy and always a quick wit.
These two comedians are so natural real funny . Hilarious .
I would've loved to see Dean Martin on this show. Am sure Craig and him would have a blast! Saw some Bob Newhart sketches. very nice man. i miss the oldtimers =) The last bit is awesome

That Sammy Davis Jr. joke at the end is a Top 10 best jokes of all time.
Bob newhart was one of the first comedy albums that I ever bought. He was fantastic. I grew up on him, Cosby, Carlin, and Richard Pryor
Newhart was a genius. Simple clear observation with impeccable timing.
Craig Ferguson was also very funny and a good interviewef.
"Hi, Bob" destroyed my liver. It was such a great time.
The Driving Instructor is my absolute favorite Newhart routine...
Maybe I'm just ancient AF, but I really expected Bob to pick up the telephone.
He was the MASTER of that bit. Perfect timing, the way he allows the audience to create the other side of the conversation, that stutter that implies so much. Pure gold!
