This 'best of' segment is about 4 hours too short... Every appearance of Rickles is the best of Don Rickles. It's easy math.

I was lucky enough to be in the audience for Don Rickles' final appearance on Letterman, right before the finale week. He came out during the commercial break slowly with some assistance to his seat and didn't get his grand matador entrance, but man was he still 100% mentally on it. Especially considering he had to go back and forth with Howard Stern next to him as well, he wasn't missing a beat and was still throwing 100 jabs a minute like he always did. It was after the Indianapolis 500 and because Letterman's team placed 3rd I believe, everyone in the audience received free Steak & Shake milkshakes! No musical act that taping either, just got to enjoy PS and the CBS Orchestra for a long outro and that was amazing to hear professional musicians at the top of their game just grooving for an additional minute and a half. One of the best experiences in my life so far.

" You don't have to be that attentive " ... Don Rickles was absolutely the best. The very best.

5:15 Even Denzel says “yes sir” to a legend like Don Rickles. He had the respect of everyone, truly a legend.

Don was a legend, there will never be anyone like him.

Dave is grinning from ear to ear every moment when Rickles is on. Absolutely fantastic to see, particularly when Dave completely cracks up!

What a treasure. I especially love Don at 8:20 getting tickled by his own joke.

It was always clear that these two were very fond of each other. I’ll watch every second of them together .

Rickles might be the funniest person who ever lived, right up to the end. My brother and I were fortunate to see him live in Vegas in 1999 and he was absolutely incredible. RIP.

Admin could post every Rickles interview in full and I’d watch them all. The Rickles, Denzel, Letterman segment is just the best.

The funniest guest on Letterman either it's Don Rickles or Norm Macdonald. Both of them made Dave laughed like a high-pitched hyena.

People like this just don't exist anymore. The stories this man told were priceless. His Carson appearances from the 70s are hilarious. Long live Sharkey

Probably the greatest talk show guest in history, just a genius!!!

Happy 96th Birthday Mr Warmth 🎁 We love you Champion 🏆

Seeing Don say a joke and smile is something that will always fill my heart. Thank you Mr. Warmth, you were always the most entertaining person on the show and had a heart of liquid gold!

The people demand "The Best of Richard Simmons & Dave". Please make it happen.

You know he’s a legend because he’s still dead ass hilarious.

I’m gonna drop my pants and fire a rocket 🚀 😂😂😂😂

I will never cease to be amazed and impressed by the precision and timing of that gag at 6:43

Rickles & Rodney....R.I.P. Gentlemen, thank you for the lifetime of hilarity ! we were lucky growing up when we did....

I’m always amazed at how quick Don was with his wits. “Because you’re my whole life” was fast as a bolt of lightning. RIP Mr Warmth.

Please post the full Denzel/Rickles appearance! One of the best.

Don Rickles and Robin Williams were always my favorite late night guests. Whenever they made the rounds of the late night shows, I always find time to watch them.

There will never be another Don Rickles. What a legend!

Don was genius level at ad lib. Dave loved the banter and couldn't stop laughing

Calling someone a hockey puck would get almost nobody else a laugh. Half of the things that came out of Don Rickles mouth were not particularly funny, but his delivery puts him in a league of his own.

"That's exciting!!! Im gonna drop my pants and fire a rockect!" Every Don Rickles appearance on the show always made Dave play second fiddle.

Don Rickles timing always perfect. True legend. Non stop fun.

Missed the iconic “Ok you can have a seat now…, what else is new? Well…I tell ya the truth!” Don’s interviewing himself! 😂😂😂 (after the hug when he tells Dave he can sit down now)

Meanwhile you’re in Connecticut with a girl yelling “put it on the other truck!”

Ha. I watched the last segment where Dave tried to douse Don with champagne and Don managed to scoot away. Man, he could move fast! Those must be the kind of reflexes that were honed while performing in small dangerous night clubs.

And no one charged the stage to assault him. Different times.

04:28 . I can't even breath. This is the best ever. It works on so many levels. it acknowledges that this is all somewhat an act and not a pure interview. it acknowledges the fact that they are both comedians and instantly understand the bit. It acknowledges the fact that for the most part dave has to sit there and act interested to many of his more boring guests. It is the best. To see how quickly rickles picked that body language out and went with it in a heartbeat, derailing his own story for this banger of a joke.

Back, WAY BACK, when late-night comedy was truly and spontaneously funny.

That little smile he gives Dave at around 8:20 is such a nice moment.

Dave giggling responses are gold

My Xbox gamer tag is PantsRocketHaus as a tribute to Don. The best.

No one made Letterman laugh as hard as Rickles did

I love it when people put Dave in his place

It's an honor knowing the merchent of venom, nobody puts a smile on my face like Don did. RIP legend

I don't know much about Don Rickles but I know his movies and humor. He is definitely always came off as young at heart.

Never be forgotten

I'm going to drop my pants and fire a rocket..CLASSIC

"Regis!" "l don't want him out here."

This is a good compilation, cuts all the fat out, doesn’t show me a bunch of the most easy to find common clips I’ve seen a million times, just classic Don and the quick fire editing matches his jokes

The last one with champagne shower or whatever, Don was like me right there, bolding out of this messy place and thinking: oh no no no no no, I need to go home clean!!!

Is this the best channel on KZfaq or what ?

Roasting Dave at 5:34. 😂 At 5:44, I literally spit out my drink! 😂😂😂

Bonus Regis appearance! Absolute legends.

“You little midget with the glasses” is amazing lol

Nothing says "I don't care" like "I'm gonna drop my pants and fire a rocket". 😂😂😂😂😂 Brilliant.

Two of my favourite people. The absolute best.

That man was beyond awesome! RIP Don!

Rickles was always great on letterman and Carson no chemistry with Leno.

Good golly, I miss Don Rickles. Loved his appearances on Johnny and Dave, and I made it a point to see him in Vegas at the Orleans in 2013. Mr. Warmth, indeed. Great memories. We need another like him...

RIP Don, one of the best. I also love Letterman's dry humour

One of a kind, a proper legend! Nowadays, celebs must be mindful not to step on toes!

one of the best guests and best people, certainly one of the best comedians!

My favourite moment was 'Here fella, come on boy.... and it's a human being!!!'

Man i miss this guy,, one of the best ever

"I'm gonna drop my pants and fire a rocket" I gotta remember that one hahaha

Don is so gracious! He refers to himself and Denzel as " two major people". That is really sweet. Don could flay your flesh from the bones, but he also has a way of putting younger folks at ease. Denzel is loving it, too.

There will never be anyone like Don ever again. people might come close, but he was an original!

I agree with the other posts - Don was the greatest! Saw him live twice, and am glad I did.

Now we need the best of Regis

A little song, a little dance, a little seltzer down your pants. Don was one-of-a-kind.

Thanks Dave for putting this on ! Amazing...your clips are still the best!!!

I loved this! I still have to ask please post the full clip of Rickles and Denzel Washington.

I would have loved to seen Don at a late-night Vegas show. Preferably after a Sinatra show. Thanks Dave and crew.

This is a great cut of clips you've put together I love this video. Don is amazing. Thank you!

I don’t know why, but Paul’s laughs at 6:32 absolutely kill me 🤣 Love Don. RIP.

Gold just pure gold! I miss this show, and RIP Don Rickles

Mr. Warmth!

I hate it when I ask my friends , "Have you ever heard of Don rickles and they haven't.. I think he was amazing.. Thank god for KZfaq

Only two words properly describe this classic clip: FUCK YES!!!!!

Don and Dave is the best and ever was...Nothing compares to them ever to this day and never will for all of History....ever..

My favourite Don Rickles' moment was when he greeted Frank Sinatra from the stage, as Frank came in late; and said something along the lines of "Hi Frank. Take a seat. Make yourself comfortable - hit someone." That came to mind after the Oscar Slap.

Good compilation. Thank you for creating / uploading it! I was hoping the part when Don teased Dave for making an "air ruler" with his hands would be in this. It was the show with Denzel sitting next to him. Included here is where Don already is teasing Dave for getting stuck on his words and making funny noises, which already cracked me up. But when Don went after him for using his hands like a ruler that took me over the top. It also was a show where they went overtime under Don's blessing! LoL. It would be fantastic to get the ENTIRE conversation with Don in HD while Denzel stayed there thoroughly entertained.

Drop my pants and fire a rocket! 😆

Nearly spit out my drink when Don said "I'm gonna drop my pants & fire a rocket!"

Two of the best at their best!

Thank God for KZfaq... At my age these videos always make me laugh!

Whoever put this together, great job.

One of a kind gem!

So great! Thank You

No words. Only gut busting laughter!🤣

I just love this guy!! Mr. Warmth!!!

My favorite Rickles insult was when he would tell someone “why don’t you go buy a horse and move to the mountains and don’t bother anybody”

I enjoy time traveling - this is the best part.

this was amazing

Wow, that was great. More! Son of The Best of Don Rickles!

Anytime Don Rickels would be on Johnny,Dave,Dean Martin roasts,I’d be watching,he had a quick sense of humor.

The absolute best!

That's just great; and the band closes with the Stones. Priceless.

You know it’s a good “set” when Don, himself starts laughing ✌🏻😆😆😆🤔👍🏻

“ Robert DeNiro is a great actor, ask him! He’ll tell ya! “ 😂

Spectacular ending for the video 😂 😂😂😂

I go back and watch the Denzel one at least once every month. Miss Don so much.

He moved so quickly to avoid the champagne 🤣😊

4:32 Oh my God that was hilarious. Even Letterman was not ready for that dig hahaha. So quick
