DVD Reviews of The Ultimate Johnny Carson Collection - His Favorite Moments from The Tonight Show (Vols. 1-3) (1962-1992)

DVD Review: Laughed 'til we cried
Summary: 5 Stars

We purchased the Johnny Carson video as a Christmas gift for my dad. We watched it together the night he opened his gift. It was a hit! My dad absolutely loved it! We all laughed and laughed - and even cried at one point when we laughed so hard. This brought back such fond memories for my dad.

It is great humor without embarrasing or rude content.

We give it 5 stars!

DVD Review: the ultimate johnny carson collection
Summary: 4 Stars

This dvd is good and I would recommend it to others but there are parts of it that are on the boring side as well.

DVD Review: Best segments of later Carson shows
Summary: 5 Stars

A very enjoyable collection of Carson's later years (in living color). Lots of little snippets from shows from the 60s and beyond. These are highlight clips that had us in stitches and left us longing for more. Touching to see his guests as they were starting their careers and knowing so many are no longer with us. The final two shows, in their entirety, were very moving and a treasure to have in any Carson fan's collection forever.

DVD Review: Wonderful Walk Down Memory Lane
Summary: 5 Stars

A true best-of with very short pieces of some amazing acts by Carson and by his guests including some very young Carlin and Leno plus a moving coverage of the final episode. I'm very glad I bought this set and I expect to view it every year or so. Enjoy!

DVD Review: Johnny's grrrrrreat!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a wonderful selection of scenes from the Tonight Show. Nobody does it as well as he did. I was tired from laughing after watching the DVD. The only thing wrong with it is that it's not long enough.

Description of The Ultimate Johnny Carson Collection - His Favorite Moments from The Tonight Show (Vols. 1-3) (1962-1992)

Studio: Respond2 Entertainment Release Date: 10/14/2003 Run time: 420 minutes Rating: Nr
Culled from 30 years of material, this collection of moments from The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson contains some of most inspired bits of lunacy ever recorded. Whether cajoling with Hollywood's biggest stars or normal folk with special talents, Carson was a master of finding the right joke, with timing second to none. Along with bits of his opening monologues, skits, and early standup appearances from the likes of David Letterman and Eddie Murphy, there are many highlights with perhaps the perfect Carson guest--exotic animals that stole the show. This collection was released shortly after Carson's reign ended in 1992. Although most of the tapes from his first decade are lost, there are plenty of highlights from the '70s through the '90s. Also included is Carson's touching and historic "Final Show," which finds the host simply talking to his audience and showing highlights--or just the faces--from his years on the set. Although many followed--and a few have even succeeded--Carson's Midwest charm made him the king of TV in a period when America was defined by television.

The DVD edition adds some superlative extras, including "Danger Johnny" segments from his first decade, short bits on the history of the show and the host, and more behind-the-scenes glances, including an intriguing way to watch the final show via unedited feeds from isolated studio cameras. Also included is the 1982 NBC special "Johnny Goes Home," which follows Carson on a tour of his rural Nebraska homeland, and a slightly edited version of the penultimate show, in which his last two guests, Robin Williams and Bette Midler, are on fire. These extras make the DVD, produced a decade after Carson left, a must-have piece of entertainment and pop history. --Doug Thomas
