Product Description:
BEST OF JOHNNY CARSON VOLUME ONE (DVD MOVIE)
Amazon.com:
Any fan of Johnny Carson will certainly have their own idea of what constitutes his best stuff. With over 30 years of material from the king of late-night TV to cull through, any collection is bound to be missing something. Whether or not your favorite moments are to be found in the almost four hours of Carson classics in this first volume of The Best of Carson is open to question, but either way there's plenty here to remind you of what made Johnny so popular. Each disc features highlights of guest visits, comic skits, and unexpected moments (most of the selections in this volume are from the 1980s). Disc one features highlights with guests like Steve Martin and "Super Dave" Osborne, as well as Carson characters like "Aunt Blabby" and "Carnac the Magnificent," along with other memorable moments. The most intriguing piece by far is the famous "Return to Studio One" episode from 1969, where Bob Hope and Dean Martin stole the show with their unannounced appearances (the episode was apparently lost for years and accidentally found in a vault at the Armed Forces Television Network). Disc two features appearances by animal handler Jim Fowler, the Peking Acrobats, and Garry Shandling in addition to "Tonight Show Memories," a 30-minute retrospective of the show's history. Disc three features Ellen DeGeneres, Rodney Dangerfield, Don Rickles, and more comic skits, including one that imagines what The Tonight Show would be like if NBC were to be bought by the Japanese. The bonus feature on disc three is a photo gallery featuring shots of early guests. What is missing here is one of the most important aspects of Carson's legacy: the launching of many future stars' careers on his show. There's no late-night debut here of Jay Leno, David Letterman, or Jerry Seinfeld for example. But despite that, there's still enough material here to give fans plenty of classic Carson entertainment.--Daniel Vancini

Johnny Carson was the King of Late night and this collection and the fuller box set takes you back when Late night on Carson meant everything to a career. this set has Gobel, Dean Martin and George Burns stopping on through. Carson just had that humor and connection with his guests and audience which is timeless. His Genius of timing and connecting is second to none even still. Classic Carson.

If you are a fan of Johnny, this is a must...the bits with Dean Martin and George Gobel are priceless. There will never be new comedy to match these old days of television no matter how hard they try. Johnny Carson was the best too!!!

I faithfully watched the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson over the 30 years that he was on TV and I was very disappointed in the material on this DVD set. This certainly is not the "best of Carson". I thought most of it was boring. Many of the guests were unknown and uninteresting. Johnny Carson and Ed McMahon did so many funny skits with Aunt Blabby and Carnac over the years, but the two on this set had to be the worst. I can't believe that with 30 years of material, this was the best they could ... Read More

We really enjoyed watching these old Carson clips. We actually bought this one for the in-laws for Christmas and we snuck a peek before we gave it to them. (oops!) My wife bought another of the Carson collection for me for Christmas and it was really hard to keep it a secret after we enjoyed this one so much. She made me wait, but I was really surprised!

Hilarious! If you are a Johnny Carson fan, this is a must have. And if you have never before seen him, this is a classic example of what late night comedy once was.
