Just watching the late great Phil who passed yesterday interviewing jamie Leigh & her late mother back in 1985. Such a thoughtful host especially how he enquired then almost apologised if he pried to much into Janet Leigh's relationship with her own mother compared with that with her daughter Jamie Leigh. Two fun ladies. I'm' sure jamie Lee Curtis will reflect a little having heard the news on Phil's interviews with her over the years. I wonder whether she'll reflect back to this one & perhaps shed a tear watching her mother talk with younger her. That's how life goes, our parents sometime pass & we have to continue on. The familiar feelings of the relationship disappear & we're in a new emotional terrain as distance comes with the lack of physical presence interaction with us.
Janet Leigh was my crush a s a teenager.. so beautiful. I didn’t like how Jamie interpreted Janet a few times, in fact I don’t like her as a person, not sure why, maybe too opinionated.. 🤔 After Psyco I never showered with the shower screen over, that scene scared the crap outta me. Lol
I teared up during this. Partly because Johnny is gone but mostly because of the memories this stirred up. I was born in the 70’s. Johnny was part of my home growing up. Although I wasnt always allowed to stay up while my parents watched the show….many times I could hear it downstairs if I couldn’t sleep. No one cares about this but me, but it felt good to write it. Rip Mr Carson. 😢
34 years later, we’ve made almost no progress in detecting ovarian cancer before it’s too late. RIP Gilda Radner and all the women who have died of this horrific disease.
Being abducted at gun point & locked in a dark closet for 2 WEEKS would traumatize any civilian. And watching her nasty rich father flea bargaining with his own daughter’s life & freedom. And she appears perfectly nice & intelligent here.
Growing up in the 80s, we watched his shows every night and relied on them. Tucking America to bed for 33 years, amd here I am, 20 years past his passing, I still come here to watch his shows. Bluetooth YT to my TV & Johnny Carson is still tucking me to bed 💜 The Goat of night time television 🕊️
What he did to Joan was terrible, it appears he did know the meaning of " giving artists a start " in the industry, and when Joan got an opportunity for her own show, after filling in for little johnney, proving she could host a show and loved by millions well the little white haired devil wouldn't speak to her..hung up the phone..total imaturity...
I caught Carson as host for the last few years. Definitely broke the mold when they made him. Carson,Letterman,Conan and Craig. My Mt.Rushmore of Late Night hosts.
The cutaway to Conan O’Brien making a “when will this thing be over” face is priceless! I’m sure that’s not how he felt, but it’s pretty funny how it looked.
In 1966 my husband and our Baby had to stay overnight in NY there my husband turned the TV on ...the tonight show with Jonny Carson... from that day on I watched his show.... we didn't have such a show with J. CARSON and we never will... thank you Johnny Carson......
