Johnny Carson TV
 

If anyone else can’t stand the current crop of late night TV shows, you might want to look into Pluto TV (free on Roku, Apple TV and probably fire stick). I noticed today that they are carrying the Johnny Carson TV channel. In my opinion he was the best.

We watch Johnny almost every night.


The current nite-time talk shows are trash and mostly political.

I whole heartedly agree, Johnny was funny, never vulgar or offensive.

ahhhh, the memories. The 'current crop' --- is more like the 'current crap'.

I LOVED 'Carnac The Magnificient'.

Saw Johnny in Person on a visit to Burbank, California. Great show. As I remember, none of the talk show hosts were biased one way or another toward a political party. They might occasionally have a guest that was.

They insulted everyone which is the way it should be done.

Hereeeeeeee’s Johnny! He was the best, thanks for the tip!

Thank you, Johnny was the best and with respect and decency.

He was the best. Terrific interviewer, especially with kids. I guess in real life he was a really nasty individual, but that never came through on TV. I miss his kind of interviewing. And so funny in his skits.

The era of late night TV shows has changed so much. They are all politically driven. Johnny Carson was the best. I had a lump in my throat when he said good bye on his last show. Thanks for the tip about Pluto!

Too bad we can't see re-runs of Jack Parr or Steve Allen. I do enjoy Johnny Carson.

I agree but look at Late Night TV. All they do is bad mouth one or another political party instead of entertaining us. Late Night TV has become a National Convention Debate. Cable Co. have become a joke for us consumers. Programming is trash!

I still watch the Johnny Carson. I forget the channel but he is on basic Comcast.

I remember Steve Allen discussing his shows and why they don't show the reruns of his show. They didn't save the tapes, they threw out the tapes of his show. What a shame because he was hilarious. Do you remember his "man on the street interviews" with Louis Nye. And "How's your fern?" which meant nothing but was so funny.

Thanks for this information. Like you I’m not happy with TV. And I loved Johnny Carson.

Johnny was great and after he retired Jay grew on me to the point where I very much enjoyed him also. Jimmy Fallon on the other hand, no thanks!

Agreed both Johnny and Jay poked fun at everyone no discrimination no agendas.

I tried Pluto but there was no audio. Video w/o sound is useless.

Yes, you can catch it on METV.


Seems like 9pm.

Johnny comes on at 10:00 on Peacock.

We have Roku, Prime, Netflix, and I use YouTube tv for college football. We have done this for 3 years now and have not missed cable crap at all.

i've found if you keep the modem/router/-box near the tv it works better, lol. seriously! pluto comes right up when we use the main tv, right next to the 'works.' the tv farther away has a more difficult time getting the channel in. it WILL load, but takes a good 2-3minutes. (it also comes in poorly during storms.) also--you can watch pluto on your pc, too :coolsmiley:
