Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson - Monologue - July 18, 1990 

Wow! One bomb after another.

Even Johnny's jokes that bomb, are funny...😂

This is what millions tuned in for during his 30 year tenure as host, the night when the monologue bombs!

He’s handling it like a pro though. Like he is OWNING the bomb and taking control of it.

The Hubble telescope was eventually fixed and worked quite well but it was a treasure trove of jokes for awhile…

God, that monologue bombed faster than the Germans did to London during the second world war.

The chernoybl monologue was crazy

Monica Seles (one of the top female tennis players at the time), Mike Duggan, and Dionne Warwick were Johnny’s guests that night.

I remember that about the hubble as if it was yesterday!

7:00 That was the GUTSIEST heckle of all time.

From manhole covers to catalytic converters. 😳😳😳

If you can please upload the episode with Michael Oliver July 25th 1990😁

I never saw Johnny bomb so bad. I guess as he said even the best of them can have a bad night.

Did he ever have a monologue that he didn't flub?

The issue with the Hubble telescope being out of focus was reportedly due to the effect of gravity when it was on earth being made. Once in a gravity free condition, it 'flexed' creating the out of focus condition. Johnny is still the best though!
