I met Jzck Lemmon when I was a Bartender at Chadneys Restaurant in Burbank in 1981 across from NBC Studios. A lot of Stars would come in and have dinner and a drink or two before crossing the street to appear with Johnny. He selected an Irish Coffee and a couple bought the drink for him on a very busy Friday evening and he walked through the crowd all the way over to thank them before leaving in his Rolls Royce with a license plate that said LEMMON. He was an amazing man and I was thrilled to meet him and make him his drink. We had a very nice conversation. He told me he was a Bartender himself before he got his big break in Hollywood. Love you Jack Lemmon.

I have the exact same memories....was all cleaned up for the following day's work...comfortable and in front of the TV to see Johnny with a couple minutes to spare at 11:28 pm (sorry for detail as I am a Geometric Model Theorist)...I rarely could stay awake for the whole show...Especially liked Carnac the Magnificent...that "Mystic from the East",.... Sear, Sage, Soothsayer....I liked when the prediction of what was written in the envelope did not quite gel well for Carnac, where the audience let off all sorts of audible dissatisfaction, motivating Carnac to compose a good luck message for every audience member....such as: "May a crazed Auto Mechanic hotwire your Sister". I was Pop's Solo Caregiver for 2.5 yrs. before He died...Pops loved to watch Johnny too.....was Ma's Solo Caregiver for 8 yrs. before She died....was so glad to get those extra years w/them & to Serve (filial piety)...spend as much time w/ your Dad as possible so there are no regrets and of course Serve, as your Parents took care of you. GIVE HIM MORE THAN HE GAVE YOU, THOUGH MOST OF THE TIME I DIDN'T THINK THAT WAS POSSIBLE AS THEY SACRIFICED SO MUCH FOR ME.....Caregiving-- hardest & most rewarding work of my life...no more than 3 hours of sleep per night for nearly 9 years.....& I was grateful too for the extra time.....both of their end times were horrific...my brain suppressed virtually all of it...Ma flatlined 11 times through only half of the last day...Pops aged 30 years in only 1 day....stick w/your Dad through thick and thin...he'll be proud of you & you can make things easier for him......wish I could have served both for 20 years...didn't work out that way....😔 Today, I'm a 59 year old Orphan....A new & different angle than from before....

Love this ... the 80's were great for a lot of reasons but one of them was the cool fact that culture had a great crossover in that it is close enough to us, where the movies and technology still resonates, images are in color but at the same time society and entertainment also was still filled with the big stars from the Golden age of the 30, 40, and 50s and the WW2 generation was barely retiring. It just connects a century of America in a way. And Carson basically showcases that America.

We'll never see their like again - they were top drawer.
I met Jzck Lemmon when I was a Bartender at Chadneys Restaurant in Burbank in 1981 across from NBC Studios. A lot of Stars would come in and have dinner and a drink or two before crossing the street to appear with Johnny. He selected an Irish Coffee and a couple bought the drink for him on a very busy Friday evening and he walked through the crowd all the way over to thank them before leaving in his Rolls Royce with a license plate that said LEMMON. He was an amazing man and I was thrilled to meet him and make him his drink. We had a very nice conversation. He told me he was a Bartender himself before he got his big break in Hollywood. Love you Jack Lemmon.
Great memory. Thanks for sharing.
I rhought n he was a Prick. He played Golf [charity] In my home Town Palm Springs Came late/hungover and belligerent. He ordered us around likje his lackeys. Glad when he left, Dean Martin on the other hand was a gentleman
Thank you for sharing. Cool story ❤
Nice story it's good to hear that when they were really down to earth and when they were not a political pawn
@@stevenumphlett6730 - Right?! I miss that too.
It's notable that thousands of clips from "The Tonight Show With Johnny Carson" are ten thousand times better than just about anything on any talk shows during the last twenty-five years. No one has done it better than Johnny Carson.
Jay Leno was good, I really enjoyed his jokes!!
@@michellemiller8639 unfunny clown
Craig Ferguson was awesome! Great interviewer, who made itfun for his guests. And his monologues and when he'd banter with his sidekick Geoff Peterson (his robot cyborg sideman voiced by Josh Robert Thompson) were always entertaining
Jay Leno sucks
Conan O'Brian and Norm Macdonald were legendary.
Watching reruns of Carson is like rewatching part of my life through the years. (I'm 65 now)
yeah me too..it brings me back to a time that I miss so much
I agree and I’m 69, never missed the show
62 here. (I’m the kid). I miss those days as well. People seemed much kinder and much more respectful.
I’m 60 and I know just what you mean. Such a different time.
I’m fifty and I remember watching as a kid. This show reminds me of times and family members I really miss. Life goes by so quickly
True comedic talent. Never be another duo like them. Those days were ours! So glad we can relive this thru youtube. Thanks so much
I am so grateful that I grew up in the pre-digital era. Great performers, great music, no selfies, no texting, no social media. I miss those days. I miss Carson and so many of his guests....... Great era, glad I got to experience it.
@@Juliana65 I'm m
@@Juliana65 Me too!
I 2nd Julianna. And Rox ... we also had Cheech & Chong at the very same time. And great comics like Jonathon Winters & Robin Williams. What an amazing dichotomy. An overflowing well of true rare talent in those days. I miss them too. Grumpy old Men was a treat to watch. RIP boys.
so true! Those days were ours. I feel blessed to have seen so many of his shows.
Two of my favorite actors interviewed by a legend. I miss them all.
INDEED!!!
I am honored to share a birthday with Jack Lemmon, February 8!
Ah the nostalgia!!!! I love the memory of falling asleep hearing Johnny Carson every night! My dad loved watching him - I still have my dad and I am grateful!
Is your 66 a chevelle ? ❤️
@@lawncuttingplusdelta - no but I had a 1969 Camaro Super Sport with a Rally Sport (hidden head lites) package. 396 with a turbo 400. Factory power windows, console mounted factory 8 track, white vinyl top, green paint with the white rally racing stripe. I sold the car back in the day for $1,500.00 bucks and now I’ll bet that car is worth hundreds of thousands!
@@BartSimpson-nr1dy I hear ya lol… Reggie Jackson was smart and bought up piles of muscle cars 🚙
@@lawncuttingplusdelta Reggie is a smart guy
I have the exact same memories....was all cleaned up for the following day's work...comfortable and in front of the TV to see Johnny with a couple minutes to spare at 11:28 pm (sorry for detail as I am a Geometric Model Theorist)...I rarely could stay awake for the whole show...Especially liked Carnac the Magnificent...that "Mystic from the East",.... Sear, Sage, Soothsayer....I liked when the prediction of what was written in the envelope did not quite gel well for Carnac, where the audience let off all sorts of audible dissatisfaction, motivating Carnac to compose a good luck message for every audience member....such as: "May a crazed Auto Mechanic hotwire your Sister". I was Pop's Solo Caregiver for 2.5 yrs. before He died...Pops loved to watch Johnny too.....was Ma's Solo Caregiver for 8 yrs. before She died....was so glad to get those extra years w/them & to Serve (filial piety)...spend as much time w/ your Dad as possible so there are no regrets and of course Serve, as your Parents took care of you. GIVE HIM MORE THAN HE GAVE YOU, THOUGH MOST OF THE TIME I DIDN'T THINK THAT WAS POSSIBLE AS THEY SACRIFICED SO MUCH FOR ME.....Caregiving-- hardest & most rewarding work of my life...no more than 3 hours of sleep per night for nearly 9 years.....& I was grateful too for the extra time.....both of their end times were horrific...my brain suppressed virtually all of it...Ma flatlined 11 times through only half of the last day...Pops aged 30 years in only 1 day....stick w/your Dad through thick and thin...he'll be proud of you & you can make things easier for him......wish I could have served both for 20 years...didn't work out that way....😔 Today, I'm a 59 year old Orphan....A new & different angle than from before.... J.S..... Chicagoland
RIP Walter Matthau (October 1, 1920 - July 1, 2000), aged 79 And RIP Jack Lemmon (February 8, 1925 - June 27, 2001), aged 76 You both will be remembered as legends
...far too young.
Walter was one of those guys who seemed to be born 55 years old. RIP to all of these legends.
Lemmon and Mathau. Absolute gold. Walter was always so brilliant and Jack so lovable.
RIP Johnny Carson 😔 RIP Walter Matheow 😔 RIP Jack Lemmon 😔
Are you really serious about Johnny Carson being gone as well?! I never heard that he had passed away. I just thought that he wanted to retire, and play Golf like Dean Martin, and not work anymore.
I loved Jack Lemmon. And Walter. Never again we’ll see this kind of talent
and Class!
or the kind of movies they were in!!
So great in Save the Tiger (and many more)
We’ve seen it since.
Poland, Matthau, Lemmon 👍💟
Those were the days, we will never see anything like them again! 🌼 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Class acts...all three. This segment should be put in a time capsule. It will be seen by future generations that there was a time that genuine intelligent conversation was not hard to find on television.
Man how I miss Carson. Truly one of a kind.
This was wonderful. 👏👍🌹❤️
Two of the best actors with a powerful chemistry. 👍
Johnny Carson's interviews are just in a different class. He had such a natural flow. No one will ever compare to him.
Umm dick cavett is jus as great, watch jack lemmon with Orson Welles.. brilliant interview.
Jack and Walter were such a great team. So funny but also very accomplished actors in their own right.
Deama and Comedy superstars
There are scenes that tear you apart.The scene in Days of Wine and Roses where Jack is trying to repay his ex father in law some money he has borrowed is a master class.All the remorse,loss and regret expressed in a few sentences.
What a great friendship. Only true friends can give each other the gears like that. Beautiful to watch.
I loved Jack in the Out Of Towners and Walter in the Taking of Pelham 123.
Could not agree more. The Out of Towners almost eerily predicted what NY would be like 50 years later. As for the original Taking of Pelham, only a real NYer, like Walter, could play the sarcastic Police Lt as he did. How lucky were we to have Jerry Stiller and Walter Matthau playing NY cops!
Lemmon's movie The Apartment is still my favorite comedy of all time!.
…and “Some Like it Hot”.
He and Shirley McClaine - what a fantastic movie!
I miss all of these guys so much!! Johnny was such a good host and always got the most out of his guests!! Mr. Lemon and Mr. Matthau are by far among my favorite actors!!! I've lost track of how many times I've seen the grumpy old men movies!! You can see in this interview the kind of friends they are... More like brothers than friends... Makes perfect sense that they would be buried in the same cemetery less than 30 feet apart... RIP gentlemen.....
Jack and Walter are two of my all time favorite actors! They were superb together and separately and shines in every movie they acted in!
I've always Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau both together and individually. There will never be a great comedy duo quite like them. Anything that they're in together and individually is pure gold. RIP to both of these legends along with Johnny Carson and Ed McMahon.
Huh?
Agreed. 4 of the best.👍💖👍💖👍💖👍💖
Never seen a more beautiful friendship they are the best
What a wonderful interview! I love that we can watch these shows! There is nothing like it anymore. These shows make me laugh out loud, they are timeless!
I adore this man!!!!..I wish he lasted forever...I miss him..there will never be another Jack Lemon!
I love the way , Walter pets , Jack like he's his beloved puppy 🐶
Watching JC I get completely lost in his conversations. He's so respectful, gracious and comedic that ya can't help but be enthralled. When he retired from the show, you knew that his shoes could never be filled.
I love Lemmon…and Matthau… May they both RIP. I miss them both
I adored Walter ( and Lemmon ) when I was growing up in the 80s and I still watch the movies. Just a brilliant comedian and actor Old grumpy was my favourite movie when it came out. I still laugh my ass off This was something I had never seen. Thank you thousand times 💕 What a duo of love and happiness and so much laughter I'm going to rewatch the movies I miss both so much
When my daughter was 4, 1998, she started watching their movies from the 1990s; eg Grumpy old man etc. She felt in love with them. She came with up with a nickname for them, “ the funny boys”, she still calls them by this name to this date.
Oh Lord! O Tempora O Mores! Never to watch this kind of true TV shows anyway today! Unfortunatelly! Two great ICONS in the same room at the same time! Bless them God Up in heaven! Walther Mathau & Jack Lemmon!💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Walter..he was such a natural at making you laugh ! I miss him dearly 😔!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Days of wine and roses! Such a great movie!
Just absolutely love them both, those grumpy old men...🤗
Both of these Gentlemen are legends in showbiz industry. And are now Buried practically next to each other side by side. RIP Jack Lemmon 😔 RIP Walter Mathouew 😔
They died almost exactly one year apart
Always have been a big fan of Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau . They also did the great classic which help to launch the 70s tv show? The Odd couple. May they both ? Rest in blessed peace and thanks to them for giving us some great movies that are timeless.
That movie. Where the guys walking are going faster than the old msn driving the rolls, had me laughing on the floor!
I really enjoy these old clips. Just feel good TV and fun.
I absolutely loved Jack as Ensign Pulver , when he blows up the laundry room and throws Cagney's stinking palm tree overboard are classic. I miss him, Walter, and Johnny so much, true greats of their time. Walter always looked like a loveable wrinkled Bassett Hound that you couldn't trust, yet he had his own code of honor. My favorite grumpy old men ever. As a caregiver, I deal with them everyday.
Caregivers are brave and selfless Earthly angels. Be mindful of also giving good care to YOURSELF. . . take time to indulge in some self pampering. Good food. Abundant sleep (if possible) and luxurious bubble baths with wine and candles. ❤
@@joannaedwards6325 is that an invitation? I’ll start packing...
@@joannaedwards6325 Easy to say when you're financially secure.
Mister Roberts! Have on video cassette, may have to break out vhs player and watch today!... if it will wven hook up to tv?
@@QuadMochaMatti Even on a pension, a wine is easy, a bubble bath is easier...and candles are as cheap as. It is the attitude one has to these things that makes it appear to others, a very costly or luxurious thing to do...but the secret is...just do it.
Both of these guys are Great Actors.😆
Wow, I am getting old, I can’t believe the algorithm put this up for me, and then I actually watched it, and then I watched the whole thing. I miss the old days every once in awhile.❤️
Kinda glad we won't be here a whole lot longer, right?
2 giants. Hollywood at its finest. Now? Forget it!
Grumpy Old Men & Grumpier Old Men are 2 of my favourite movies ever. They are honestly top of the ladder hilarious.
I’ve been watching these two movies on repeat. Sooo hilarious.
Yes for me I watch them around holidays
What amazing characters Lemon and Matthau are! The eternal ODD COUPLE!Love them!
Two big, big, favorite movies, starring Jack Lemmon: 'Some Like It Hot' & 'The Apartment'. Both actors have given us many fantastic performances. Many thanks to them & to Johnny Carson. 👍
Thanks for all the memories guy, RIP 🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🍻
What amazing characters Lemon and Matthau are! The eternal ODD COUPLE!Love them!. Man how I miss Carson. Truly one of a kind..
Jack Lemmon, the quintessential gentleman of the silver screen. Some Like it Hot, The Fortune Cookie, The Odd Couple and his supporting role in Mister Roberts,were some of my favorite Lemmon movies. Hollywood will never have legends like Lemmon and Matthau ever. These two both played off each other very well.
The China Syndrome
I only have six words, The Days of wine and roses
One of the rare ones I have yet to see but will tonight.
China Syndrom. Never cared much for Lemmon but liked Walter. He could have done comedy with the three stooges.
Professor Fate! The Great Race.
I miss so bad these so humble, honest, loving artists and talks show hosts. Good old days!
Enjoying all the old shows during the good old days now in 2023.😊
All 4 on that stage are part of a bygone era. Golden age of comedy. Probably one of the greatest duos ever along with the king and his side kick.
That was brilliant ...I laughed ...smiled....remembered their films fantastic 🎉🎉🎉love these clips yt ❤❤❤
Jack and Walter were perfect in all their movies. Grumpy Old Men and Grumpier Old Men were both just hilarious. Those are definitely laugh out loud movies. Loved them both.
Loved❤ Mr. Lemmon in SOME LIKE IT HOT!! with Ms. Monroe & Mr. Curtis. '59. Funny stuff.
Walter Matthau and Jack lemmon are two of the most brilliant and iconic actors and Jack lemmon is a great director and they are so good friends and to be in so many movies together they absolutely make the movie so much better because they are so good friends and that is what makes great movies I wish we had more movies and actors that were friends like them today because no one can ever beat their comedy or anything if they do ever again God rest in peace all of them
The world is a lonely place without Jack and Walter RIP you two you will always be missed
R.I.P. Johnny, Jack, Walter & Ed 🙏
"Lemon" pets him and he blows him a kiss. You don't see real life buds like this today in showbiz. Classic.
3 of the greats here. ❤
Two of the best ever. Plus of course Johnny.
Watching this ! So great!! Still good to see clean. Talk Show. Always! Guest, commentator!! 😅❤❤
No one could fill the void left by Johnny Carson.
Great legend's Jack and Walter Matthau✝️🕊️🇺🇸
Well, I nearly plotzed from Matthau’s nursing home joke! What a legendary team.
I really miss all three of these wonderful guys! Very talented, witty and funny!!!
The Great Race! Multi role film that shows the versatile genius he is. If you haven't seen it, it is an absolute must! Perhaps one of the greatest comedic films of its era and beyond!
This is the best.!!! I Had forgotten how good we had it.
Before television became hate and indoctrination. A magical time...From, an old school Army Veteran.🇺🇸
Yes, it's horrible how conservative christians have become so hateful and want to indoctrinate kids with their beliefs. Seems like conservatives need to clean up their own house before criticizing others.
Thank you for your service Sir. ♥
so true!🇨🇦
I salute you, Sir. Thank you for your service. Love and respect from Sugar Land, Texas
Also very male and white
I could listen to Lemmon-Matthau for hours. Loved every film they did together.
Three greats! Jack Lemmon talking about Fonda, Cagney and William Powell, in the presentence! I was just a kid back then, but had I been older, I would have felt this great sense of fortune knowing that all of these classic actors were still with us.
One of the greatest comedy teams to ever exit...Matthau and Lemmon...God rest their souls... I'd love to see their kids Chris Lemmon and Charlie Matthau, do a movie together. I hear they are good friends like their Dad's were and I just have this thing about heredity and the 🍎 apple not falling too far from the tree.
-stage left. (brrump tssh)
Sounds good on paper.
It’s depressing how we will never have stars like this again. I was born in the wrong era 😫
Yes, there's very few people in Hollywood with class or talent.
I was born in '66, but I sort of feel the same.
So great seeing those fellas again.
Two of the best real actors of all time!!!
Loved them in Grumpy Old Men and Grumpier! Such talent and wit!! The two were great together!
I was a bit disturbed to find Ann Margaret was just FIFTY TWO when that movie was filmed! 20 years younger than both of them!
Such a life-long duo. The early days were magic, but never forget the longevity: Grumpy Old Men. Thank you Gentlemen.
Both actors are great and ve maný movìès. But they nèver dìd Some Like It Hot together. The actors were Jack Lemon,Toñy Curtis, Mariĺýn Monroe IT is so funny
no one said they were in Some Like It Hot together. 🙄
That joke Walter told!!🤣🤣🤣
Yeah I thought Walter is sipping his rocker on that one he delivered in that joke I don't get up till 9:00 that was beautiful
It was perfect lolol
Love this ... the 80's were great for a lot of reasons but one of them was the cool fact that culture had a great crossover in that it is close enough to us, where the movies and technology still resonates, images are in color but at the same time society and entertainment also was still filled with the big stars from the Golden age of the 30, 40, and 50s and the WW2 generation was barely retiring. It just connects a century of America in a way. And Carson basically showcases that America.
Very true and nicely put! You could still talk to people who were born before 1900 as well.
Both are great in their own ways! Miss them a lot.
I've always like Jack Lemmon; watched most of his movies. Was a Very talented man.
When Hollywood wasn't Hollyweird... Shame what Has Happened to All Media
Maan, I'm such a big fan of this show. Can't get enough!
Thanks to youtube, we can watch this precious memory.👏👏
I agree. What a magical time. It's hard to believe they're all gone now. Loved the Tonight Show and that era so much.
What an iconic trio
Two of the best. Ever. They had me nearly rolling on the floor laughing. Their old movie called Front Page ? Black & white. Absolutely brilliant. 👍💜🌱🧡
One of the greatest moments of humility from the Hollywood world I’ve seen was Ving Rhames winning a golden globe in the same category that Jack Lemmon was nominated, and Rhames brought Jack Lemmon on stage and gave him the award. Both men are class acts.
Thank you for mentioning this! I just found the clip and enjoyed it immensely: The joy of EVERYbody in the room at the gesture was unbelievable! I don’t think any other actor ever did anything like it…..
@@l.w.i7478 and with all do respect to the man, ving Rhames wasn’t exactly a high profile leading man or not who Hollywood would put in that role where he’s going to get another opportunity to be nominated let alone win that award again, so he likely knew that was the one and only opportunity to accept that award and without any hesitation he graciously elected to pass it to Jack Lemmon
This was great. Now all I wanna do is watch grumpy old men. So fantastic to see
Just watched it. Don't forget the Odd Couple.
I think my favorite movie with Lemon was Some like it Hot, with Tony Curtis and Marilyn Monroe. Work of art!!
I'm so glad we got Grumpy Old Men before these legends left us.
And the sequel.
Grumpy Old Men...........that are Hilarious! RIP.
Wine and Roses. A movie about....alcoholism. Historic movie for its time..based on a play. Required viewing in A.A.
Really miss the Carson show
'' 3 '' ...GREATS AT WORK.....never will we see this again !
It's such a breath of fresh air to go back and watch these classics. The clowns that host late night these days are pathetic.
Sort of makes me glad that I can't afford a TV or cable now. I'm surprised that any of the late night shows are still going, based on what I had seen of them some time ago.
What a pair. They work so well together.
I love Grumpy old men and Grumpier old men...I have the CD today...It's ironic they feed off of each other to make people laugh...I didn't get to see them in their earlier movies..but they are the best and they make the GOOD OLE DAYS even better...RIP DON. RIP WALTER...ITS IRONIC THEY ARE BURIED CLOSE TOGETHER. NOW THEY CAN MAKE GOD HAVE A LITTLE LAUGH NOW & THEN in this beautiful America
@@dorthedalivengood9107you certainly have great taste..... I absolutely love both of those movies as well. They are hilarious. 💖
