Its so incredible how humble he is, first off the bat he was complimenting Bette Davis. Considering how his life began and everything he went through he still pays respect to those that deserve it. Even bringing the walking stick on the show so the man that gave it to him in Zimbabwe will know he still has it if he watches the show. Come on now, that's just cool of him to do.

@@markbranstrator9602 I believe we've come further than a lot of people think. Unfortunately, as Booker T Washington said back in the days of Teddy Roosevelt's presidency, there are those who have made a living and a profession out of keeping greivances, real or imagined, front and center where blacks are concerned because they can make a living from doing so. They don't want things to improve because if they do, then they lose their wealth and income. Racial harmony exists to a greater degree than a lot of people think - but you'd not know it by watching the media because those types of stories don't sell and don't attract viewers.

Pryor was very smart, starting off by first turning towards Bette Davis and giving her a big compliment. After that, Davis was all his, not to mention being hilarious in her own right.

Best line of the night, Johnny!

As my vision blurs..something else comes into focus-a true sense of awe for the character of an era of human history that I feel so lucky to have been alive for and a palpable sense of loss-not only in the passing of these entertainment giants and of my my own family and friends..but also the loss of character and respect our nation had for itself and the world at large that seems to be deteriorating more with each passing day. I do.believe that the human race has made great strides in many ways..and in general we evolve to be a better species..but as I watched them all stand as the show ended..Ed and Johnny buttoning their sport oats and then Ed helping Bette with her overcoat and Richatd standing deferential to her as she got squared away....just wow. My hand reached out as if to hold onto something that has now evaporated. I can't thank you enough for this clip and the reverie it has left me in..just....thankyou.

I was the real me, as Richard was becoming once again, the real him for the first time since before he started using. This episode was real!

I got a chance to see him off set. Very gracious, humble and had time to talk to his fans. They filmed all over historic parts of the city (State Capitol, Goudchaux store, Indian Mound and on Scenic Hwy). The movie was awful but I enjoyed all of the various sights and being able to meet Richard in person as a kid. Good times. I miss Richard.

If you read anything about his childhood, it's amazing he turned out as well as he did. A lot of what he said in his act is still relevant today. I don't sense the BS you get with a lot of comics today but he was funny AND relevant. The guys today usually aren't either. I wouldn't say Pryor was a "family comic," either, but he had his own thing that he did better than anybody else.

I actually had the good fortune to have met Mr. Pryor on three occasions. We both had been raised in the Peoria, Illinois area. But somehow, for some unknown reason, he was just a wee bit more humorous than any of the rest of us could have ever dreamed of being! Myself, along with a bunch of friends were blessed to have seen Mr. Pryor for his first ever appearance on TV via "The Ed Sullivan Show" , and although he was hilarious, it was nothing compared to his naughtier humor yet to come. Before he made it to Sullivan's show he did stand-up comedy in small clubs. Each night, before those earlier shows he use to shake like he had shell shock. During his very first stand up show, someone had the kindness to hold and rock Mr. Pryor in order to calm him before his set. In fact, it became a custom for someone to hold and rock him, as one does for a baby, until he calmed down a bit. You would never even know he was nervous at all when he was on stage, he was a great actor even then. There will never be another Richard Pryor! You are truly loved and missed old friend!

God; I miss the 1980's! Johnny Carson was legendary! Class personified! Richard Pryor was a masterpiece of a multi-talented comedian! Miss Davis was legendary! This is when network television was golden! As a kid growing up in the 1980's and living now in the present 2018-2019, I terribly miss the 1980's/1990's! The world/society, the human condition was way better before the horrible: Instagram/Twitter/Facebook and this whole disgusting "social crap media"! God bless the souls of every one that is in this classic episode/show with Johnny Carson.

I mean, he did wear the red suit a year before Eddie did what I believe was his homage to Pryor with the classic red leather outfit.

@@mr.enigma4475 Eddie's whole career was an homage to Richard. Even playing multiple characters in a movie. He had his own talent but used Richard's career as a blueprint. Both amazing in my book.

You're absolutely right. Let's not leave Redd Foxx out the equation either. Heavy influence. Eddie was the torch bearer for the legends before him. He did right by them too.

It is WEIRD...! I never knew they shared a Tonight Show spot together but I thought Davis complimented him Pryor on at least telling Johnny he was sick and couldn't make it the one time! And she did seem supportive of him when she admitted she felt uncomfortable watching her own work, too.

Richard Pryor is one of my favorite comedians of all times. He went through some challenges but bounced back with grace and respect for life. His grateful attitude shines. He was a funny guy and made me laugh in my gut so many times. I want to thank you sir for your many hilarious performances. Rest in peace Richard Pryor.🙏♥️👏

Part of what made Carson's show great was those interactions on the couch between people who normally probably wouldn't be sitting together. She wasn't butting in on 'his time.' They were there, together, on a couch, like humans spending time together.

Thanx muchly, Archy, for sharing this little treasure! I saw it, way back when, and I thought their interactions were so wonderful, just perfect. Richard being awestruck to meet Bette, and thanking Johnny for telling people that he was ill when he had to cancel his appearance on the show, and Johnny thanking Richard for calling to let him know, and Bette's wonderfully disgusted 'Chahhh-ming' comment. And their so natural, nothing put-on, interaction during the rest of this clip. I'm crying. Not sure if it's because I'm laughing so hard, or because I'm missing them, and the times, so much. Probably a bit of both. RIP, darling Johnny, Richard, and Bette, and thank you all so very much, for the magic, music, and memories.
