I don't see how this can be true, since virtually anyone could blow
Kimmel away. His humor is about as fresh and original as a used kleenex.


WHAT?????? That is so OFFBASE, is almost doesn't deserve the dignity of a response. I could post
PAGES of rebuttals, but in summary, Jimmy Kimmel is probably the greatest comedian and talk show
host on TV today. Johnny Carson wouldn't even have a career right now if he were competing with
Jimmy Kimmel or Jerry Seinfeld. The only reason Johnny Carson was so successful is out of PURE LUCK
that he was in the right place at the right time with no competition. jeeeeeeeeeeze...

Never heard of him

Warren

I never heard of Jimmy Kimmel either.But then,I quit watching those late
night alphabet tv channels (cbs,abc,nbc) years ago,except for local tv
news only.

Regardless of what anybody says,there is always going to be somebody who
agrees or disagrees.There are folks who like Carol Burnett and Jay Leno
and David Letterma and there are folks who do not.And I suppose that is
ok according to whatever some folks opinion's are.I prefer General
Motors vehicles,some folks prefer Ford or Daimler Chrysler
vehicles,nothing wrong with that at all.

I used to watch Johnny Carson on tv all the time,I really enjoyed his tv
programs.

I understand the Leno show tonight will be or include a tribute to
Carson.
I'm going to watch. Yes, I enjoyed his show for many years too. It
took guts to walk away while still near the top rather than staying on
as Bob Hope did.

Hi there,

Would you please be so kind as to remove talk.religion.course-miracle
from the headers of these messages. Someone in this group replied
to the cross-posted messages, days ago, with a single remark. ;-(

Thanks in advance !

Interesting comment about a man who rescued the Tonight Show and
proved
the viability of the late night show format. Carson turned it into
"the" late night show that led the way for many others, but at the
same
time was such a force that serious competition took 20 years to
develop. He was such a force that he could attract heads of state
to
appear and the "blessing" of an appearance on his show made the
career
of numerous entertainers. That his audience was huge and widespread
and loyal goes without saying. He was able to be funny without
being
offensive and took pains to not upstage, but showcase his guests.
And
he had the sense and grace to bow out completely while still a
success.

Yes. And he never regretted it, except for the Monica
Lewinsky deal. He really regretted not being around
for that one.

Entertainers like Kimmel are one-trick-horses. Humor based on
bodily
noises works for a while but doesn't have the staying power of
someone
with true talent like Carson.

A lot of Kimmel's appeal is due to the blatant sex appeal
that was (and is) on The Man Show. I mean, having
porn stars around to help you with your routines will
make you funnier, right?

If you found him unhumorous that seems to put you in a distinctly
small
minority.

Carson's humor is broadbased, and is easier to like
than, say, Monty Python. (Not to say I don't like
Monty Python, I think they're hilarious. Just that
their work is more of an acquired taste.)

He was an unfunny piece of **** who chain smoked.
I am suprised he lasted this long!

He was loved by the great unwashed masses who had trouble
sleeping, were unemployable and on public assistance or used
the glowing TV tube as a nightlight while having wild
monkey-sex.

"Therrrrrrrrrre's Johnny!" { - Applause Card - }
....see the bonobo-monkeys in the stage audience clap

Oh....and I'm 48, not 14 and remember this putz.

EXACTLY! And then there was Carson's personal STOOGE Ed McMahon,
who's job it was to sit there and
laugh at anything and everything whether it was funny or not. He
was
basically a human "cue card"
letting the audience know when it was time to laugh.
DUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHH

Yeah, truely a "great" show.
