While I am not a supporter of the entertainment industry using their power to call attention to one of their own for whatever reason, I felt this reblog would perhaps bring a smile into your day…
Yes, I was a fan of Johnny Carson. Although I could never really watch his shows as they aired so late at night…
But he was a great practical joker. And this is my absolute favorite. Always fun to watch – and listen to – again.
Put aside the joke was played on Joan Rivers. But then again, she is what makes the joke so precious…and this was before she became the Queen of Plastic.
The last few seconds alone are worth the view!

EXTREMELY FUNNY ….
I’m glad you thought so, sir.
That was great. Thanks for posting. This is the first I’d seen it as well.
I am so old and slow that it took me a few moments to put two and two together and see who “Kid” was! I am so sorry!
No Problem Sir !
The last few seconds were especially priceless!
Did you remember watching it on TV back then? It has remained my fave since. ☺
I thought Joan really kind of stuck to her guns about the humor, even throwing in how we helped England in the WAR?? (we did that and you’re griping about me teasing the Royal family!?) … amazing. And SO very funny! Thanks, Koji San!
and what a shame that Rivers and Carson didn’t speak after that rift.
Indeed… They did not talk after some kind of big tiff that I just cannot recall now… And Johnny died in such anguish. He told someone before his passing that he could make millions of strangers laugh but he failed to communicate with his own immediate family.
the video was good –
your take – Joan Rivers “Queen of Plastic” – brought a smile-
C-CS
Thanks! Pls see your secondary “test” comment; sorry about the spam thing!

I’m sorry if your comment was put in the spam folder! I also didn’t realize there are a few steps to go through before the comments even get published, too! But I felt she did indeed take to the surgeon once too often. At the end, her face looked like Jack Nicholson’s Joker. 🙂
Definitely worth the ending!
I thought it was one of the classics. 🙂
Hilarious!!!! I have never seen Joan so polite EVER!!!
