I remember those bunch of characters. Looking back, is it me or does it seem like there were more alcohol abuse with the stars back then? I've watched some old episodes of The Tonight Show staring Johny Carson and though Johny always seemed fine a lot of his guest seemed lit.

Seems not that long ago we were watching these shows.

Johnny was lit too,literally.
After his death from emphyesema,they released that during the majority of all his shows throughout all those years,he was puffing on coffin nails behind his desk inbetween commercial breaks.A few of the early B&amp;W shows even show him casually doing it on camera with the guests,while the the later usually show a hint of smoke trailing upward in the back ground.
I still can't believe Johnny,HSQ &amp; other great shows of that time &amp; character are all gone today.
One of the best lines ever from Johnny..."OK,move the cat".

I think "move the dam cat" is what he said.

I remember when Dean Martin came on the Tonight Show with a cig in one hand and a cocktail in the other! Man, you don't see that anymore.

Boy there was an all around great entertainer.Dean could act,sing,dance.He could do it all.I read that he really went down hill after his son Dino was killed piloting a jet,I think,for the National Guard.
