Damn, what a great interview. I learned more about acting in these thirty minutes than I could learn from years in school. Randall was fantastic in all of his work and he is greatly missed.
Ed Wilson - Great interviewer. Tony Randall - Great Actor, fantastic personality. Both men - Highly intelligent! I thoroughly enjoyed this hidden treasure. Thanks for sharing it.
I was lucky enough to see Tony Randall live, playing Ebeneezer Scrooge in A Christmas Carol in the Madison Square Garden Theatre. It was a great production and he was terrific.
Great interview! And for those wondering if Tony ever got his theater company...he did. In the fall of 1991, so 18 months after this interview, he created The National Actors Repotory Theater.
25:00 What a sadly prophetic fear Tony articulates. This was taped in 1990, and by the year 2000 can anyone out there tell me if there has been anything produced in the theater, movies, music, fashion, art, or even television that has been innovative, inimitable, or even memorable? In my opinion every decade used to be unique in its own style and creativity. Now in 2021 I can't tell the difference between something that was created in 1998 or 2000 or 2011 or yesterday. It's all sad, lumpy applesauce.
I we dident have the old movies and TV series we'd have nothing worth viewing since 1980 all the best Movies and TV are from 1940s 1950s 1960s 1970s 1980s then everything went downhill fast
listen to what tony say about american tv and movies and steel plants and everything at the end of this clip. and he said this 29 years ago. thank god for trump.
....sad that Tony Randall's dream of a National Repertory Theater based in NYC has not come to fruition.I wnder whatever happened to the $$$ that he did raise successfully towrds this end...?
Why did he change his birth name? Was he possibly ashamed of his heritage, had a misguided perception that a different moniker benefit him financially and or perceived additional and or improved recognition?!
Tony was in a different realm of intellect and ration thought. I could listen to him all day.
I REALLY loved Tony Randall as an actor. He was a powerful force in his craft.
God REST his SOUL.
We don’t seem to have performers like this anymore. He seemed like a real gentleman.
What a class-act Tony Randall was! As soon as he began speaking, I said to myself, "Aw, I miss Tony!"
Damn, what a great interview. I learned more about acting in these thirty minutes than I could learn from years in school. Randall was fantastic in all of his work and he is greatly missed.

Always loved Randall's acting,a very sensitive and professional performer.
Tony Randall is so precise, he was THE Felix Ungar, even more so than Jack Lemmon
His voice was one of the best.

I love Tony Randall and Bob Newhart.
Both men are examples of Americans who could do fine comedy and tragedy and are decent people with commitments to their families and the arts.
This is a great interview with a great comedic actor..Tony Randal....and great insight to how the structure of television works...good or bad
A great character.

Tony Randall.
trump should use the ending of this interview where toni says we have lost our drive (america has) and we better get it back.
Trump is a Fascist Pig. Randall was an excellent Liberal. And you're a cretin.
I totally agree
I agree.
Trump is not a fascist pig. Please, this is an entertainment site.

Glenn Leahey
I agree. Good question also. I'd like to find out more.
In 1991 he founded The National Actor's Theatre. See his Wikipedia page. Which was one year after this interview.
Steve Null might know
Maybe at some point humans evolve to be like Tony Randall?
Why did he change his birth name? Was he possibly ashamed of his heritage, had a misguided perception that a different moniker benefit him financially and or perceived additional and or improved recognition?!
