In case anyone is reading this: Mel is swell and alive and well at 97 years and counting...

You have to love his energy and enthusiasm. Brooks never mails it in. And Johnny knew when to zip it and let the guest shine.

The art of the storyteller. Mel Brooks' story about Cary Grant always makes me laugh.

Two National Treasures: Johnny Carson & Mel Brooks

Soooo much talent. You can tell he enjoyed making people laugh 😂. Thank you, Mel Brooks. 😊🤗

Johnny. I so miss his humor. Grateful to have had the chance to watch his show growing up. So many belly laughs

LOL I could listen to Mel tell stories for days and never get tired of them

That Cary Grant story was great! Always loved Cary Grant. Great actor!

Mel Brooks is one of my all-time favorite guests 😂

Gotta Love Mel Brooks. Keep living man

Mel is such a talent. Glad he's still with us.

Two legends who are part of the greatest generation of American humor and comedy!

Hope for the Best. Expect the worst. Life is a play. We're unrehearsed. ~ Mel Brooks

How likeable is this guy? You get the feeling he is just as down to earth in person with everyone.

Johnny Carson listens. Johnny Carson is the best! 😊 Thank you Johnny Carson. We miss you!

Fabulously funny--"mayonnaise on white" LOLOLOLOL!

Mel Brooks always brings down the house!

Thank you for posting these vids! These are absolute pearls of show business. Fantastic!!

As a kid, my great grandmother wouldn't allow Johnny on her TV set (she thought he was vulgar). But she went to bed early. So whenever I would visit, I would ask to sleep on the Davenport (you gotta be old to know what that is). I had to keep the volume down, but unbeknownst to my wonderful Irish great gran, I would allow Johnny in the house. I miss them both.

Gosh I miss Johnny

I love this.

Johnny Carson was very generous with all his guests. He had no problem showing respect, particularly if he felt an artist needed an extra laugh to motivate that person.

2024 and does anyone miss the Johnny Carson show? I remember staying up to watch who was going to be on and if there were good guests I paid the price the next morning getting up for school. So tired .....but genuinely entertained and going to sleep with a smile on my face. Life felt better. Rarely see that anymore with most of the talk shows these days. As Mel said Johnny genuinely listened to his guests and gave them space so they could be entertaining and he was a master at drawing things out from them. It was like you were an invited dinner guest at a private celebrity party and got to hear all these inside stories. So good to see these clips to remind me how good the show was at its finest moments. Reminds me how mediocre television is these days for the most part. Woke Corporate propaganda trying to pass as entertainment.

One of the greatest generation too. Mel Brooks was in a forward unit in the army in Germany WWII that took terrible casualties.

Recently viewed Young Frankenstein after decades. When the creature snaps his fingers twice and belts out Puttin in the Ritz. I completely lose my S***!

Mel may not do many talk shows then or now. But he is still just as hilarious today as when he did this show with Johnny. A genuine National Treasure!

2 great entertainers. Carson had a great show, loved Brooks’ movies.

That was GREAT!

8:45 ~ Mel's Cary Grant tale 😊

This was funny as hell!!!!!

Mel had a long and great career. Even outlives Johnny Carson by a heavy margin. 100 years are coming

As a kid in 60s ,I especially loved Get Smart . The 'cone of silence ' , and one episode with a Japanese Chaos agent with hooks for hands called the 'CLAW ' . Max says, " ,So ... I finally meet the infamous Claw ... Yes , I am the Craw ... Yes, Mr. Craw ... NOT Craw , CRAAAW !! ... That's what I said , Mr . Craw ... NO , NOOOO !!! NOT Craw ! CRAAAAAAAW !!! " Went on and on . 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Brilliant!

Love you, Mel!🎉

Incredible to see him receding and grey on this interview and to know hes still going at 97 now !

That’s how you tell a story

I got notification of this video and thought did Mel die. Fucking hell!

Mel Brooks in the Army story is hilarious!

My parents had a 331/3 comedy album in the 60s that featured Mel Broooks as the 2000 year old man.

The Tonight show eas and still is the best late show ever!!!!

Hahahaha , the punch line

I like Mel’s shoes in this episode.

Mel Brooks is literally one guy I've looked up to my whole life.

two legends togheter..

I find it very weird that Johnny was on from 1962 to 1992 and those 30 years took forever to go by. He's been off the air now for 32 years, and that just doesn't seem possible.

It's true what Mel said about Johnny: He listened, unlike other talk show hosts.

What's your favorite type of candy? Mel: "Buick" Carygrant: "Rolls Royce"

❤glad to hear that

Mel was so right about Johnny. He actually paid attention to his guest. Not like so many of them today, too busy worrying about the next bit. One of the many things that made him the best.

Fantastic!! Thank you. I hadn't seen this visit before. I absolutely adore Mel Books, the genius.

mel esta vivo aun tiene 97 años ..hoy subi un video sobre 20 actores q tienen mas de 90 años y siguen vivos en 2024.

Those were good times

Ck out great interview of Mel with Jiminy Glick

Great stuff

He could tell a story about tying his shoe and make it interesting

The funniest thing about Mel is not his jokes but his look. He is one funny lookin guy.

The great Mel Brooks should have run for the office of the President of the US ! Much better than all the jokers there past and present and at least there would be a smile on the faces of the folks . A trick well and truly missed !

"Occupation?" "Stand up philosopher!" "Oh! A bullshit arrist" "Did ya bullshit last week?" "No" "Did ya try to bullshit last week?" "Yes" "Sign here"

mel has looked 90 years old for the last 40 years

Judy Judy Judy

8:45 Johnny should have said "I wasn't listening."

That one early pic looks like Mel shoulda been doing an impression of Perry Como, instead of Tony Bennett. He looked like Perry Como in that pic.

Still kicking.

I remember those curtains I saw Mel Brooks and his wife was back stage Miss Anne Bancroft! They gave me a young wipper snapper of 16 an autograph. I still have so many autographs . The only person that brushed me aside was Andy Williams . Everyone else was so kind.

I miss the tonight show. Late night tv died after that

I'm not in. LOLLLLL.

Lmao Jummy Kimmel leads the Late Night talk shows with 1.2 m viewers! J😅johnny got 55 m!😂😂😂

Read his memoir!

Mell is so funny

😩🤓🥺 Blazing saddles is the best 😤🤬🧐

Dammit, Dead Johnny. Don't scare us like that again! (Mel is still alive!)

😂

Indubitably Mel

What was in Ed’s cup I wonder😁

What’s with the apostrophe? Mel “Brook’s”🙄

Hard boiled egg diet.

And to think his son wrote WORLD WAR Z. The book is a heluva lot better than the movie, Brad Pitt's not in the book.

THAT was the punch line?!? Oh, man, terrible!

Thanks y’all- nowadays we got ohohbiden and the humor in politics that is democrat reality of criminals & deception

JC is kind of appalling.

not as good as Rodney Dangerfield, at least as a comedian
