Probably the youngest guest ever on the show, Johnny proves once again how good he is with children. And for a 3-year-old, Zachary got some good one-liners in! COMPLETE SEGMENT
The thing that’s wonderful about Carson is that silence did not frighten him. He was comfortable with the awkward pauses and realized that’s where the laughter was.
@@pam0626 thank you. I wasn’t sure . I guess I assumed the comment about the silence between jokes & how the little one handled the silence threw me off? Tnx
Zachary handled this interview so well for being just 3 years old at the time! Most youngsters his age wouldn’t have much to say to people like Johnny Carson! Not to mention his hair was so curly back then!
Nobody can top Johnny never in a million and the way that he talks to the little kid and it's just magical it's amazing that is the cutest little boy I can't get over it Johnny knows just what to say
I love how Ed was so attentive to Zach. He lifted him into the chair, then held the mug as the little guy took a sip. Zach has such a sweet face. I laughed when he said: "I guess that's about it".
Watching these old clips reminds me so much of our family vacations we spent in a 3 bedroom, little chalet type place with 12 close family members in the Ozark. My aunt & uncle stayed up late every night to watch Johnnie every night. What they didn’t know was from the room I slept in, that had a folding door--I was watching along with them--peeking through a crack in the doors. My Uncle Bill had the same timing in his delivery of stories & jokes. To whomever posted this--thank you for great memory back to my childhood!
That is such a sweet comment. Thank you for taking the time to post it. As a child, I too 'watched' his show through a crack in the door (actually, I couldn't see the TV, I could only hear it) when it was on in the other room. It has been a lot of work to post these, but it has been far more a pleasure to be able to share clips with his fans. It has been a treat that Zachary has posted comments on this channel as well.
He's a cool guy Zach when I met him in 2012 was part of a Ghostbusters fan group were they'd dress up and go ton comic cons and even charity events free of charge putting smiles on sick kids faces.❤
This is one of my favorite episodes of The Tonight show which is saying something. That kid always brings a smile to my face and Johnny's reaction is hilarious.
Both of my parents were there, along with my Aunt who was my manager at the time. My mom and aunt backstage with me right up until I had to go out. Dad was in the audience.
@@katinawoodruff-roberts8993 I just remember the band's music was loud and it startled me, and I remember I couldn't really see the audience with the way the lights were on me. It's kind of surreal to watch this now as a 37 year old man.
One of a kind. I guess I would have to say he was the most constant man in my life besides my father. You could always depend on him to make you laugh every night. Hasn't been another like him_yet.
