Thanks for the Carson memories. I saw the Dean Martin cigarette ashes clip on (more than one) anniversary shows, but I saw the other two live. Johnny breaking in on the CPO Sharkey show was hilarious. (I'd also seen the earlier show when Rickles guest-hosted and broke the case.)
Talk shows seem much more scripted now. Guests have something to sell or promote and get right to it. Not allowing them to drink probably has something to do with. I also miss those weird daytime talk shows (Merv Griffin, Mike Douglas, Dinah Shore) where they'd have an eclectic group of guests based on whoever was available and I once saw Richard Dreyfuss get in an argument with Donald Rumsfeld.

Rumsfeld was a dick.
I am amused ❤️
Then you're just as bad as me. I appreciate that.
These are great. Embarrassed that I had to zoom in on Ford and think about the caption for 10 secs before it hit.
Making people think was one of the reasons these cartoons got rejected. And thanks.
The current king of late night is Greg Gutfeld!
He calls himself that on his website, I was unaware that anyone agreed.

The actor Leslie Nielsen always carried a fart machine with him, His tombstone has: “Let it Rip”!! I loved these cartoons!
Thanks, I appreciate that.
I laughed at Evel Knievel Rest in Pieces -- which I remember seeing somewhere... maybe in an earlier post...
I thought the Betty James one was a bit of a stretch...
Your Betty James joke was better than mine.
lol but I'm learning...
For which album did Taylor Swift win Grammys last night?
Taylor Swift is also a singer?
