Heeere's Johnny - The Definitive DVD Collection from The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson
Studio: Respond2 Entertainment Release Date: 11/06/2007 Customer Review: Here's to you, Johnny
This is a must have for anyone who ever watched the king and who ever wished he were still around. Some wonderful memories but more a chance to see the man work. Too great to be missed.
Customer Review: Memories Galore
My earliest memories of television (we did not get TV in our house until my high school years) were watching two things with my Dad: The Six Day War in 1967, and watching Johnny Carson on Friday nights and during school vacations. I learned about politics and humor, and how to play nice while being funny, from watching The Tonight Show with Mr. Carson. He introduced so many of today's greatest comics, but none were as consistently funny and fresh, without being mean. And several of his characters are still classically funny and relevant. In his day the guests stayed and interacted with each other, which added to the fun. His final episode was as touching as the last episode of M*A*S*H. My parents are in their 80's now, they have been married for over 60 years, and this past year I bought them collections of Johnny Carson, Bob Hope, and M*A*S*H for Christmas and their anniversary. Both Mom and Dad are having problems with their memories, and they are enjoying these collections immensely, and they are helping Mom and Dad remember some of the fun times and sad occurrences of the last 75 years. I hope I will get a chance to see the DVDs later on.
