Johnny Carson: Tonight Show
Season 2
Ep 9. Richard Benjamin, Garry Shandling, 3/18/1981
- March 18, 1981
Johnny opens the show by poking fun at the 20th anniversary of the Pillsbury Doughboy, some of the mundane sights to see in beautiful downtown Burbank, and St. Patrick's Day. Guest star Richard Benjamin visits to chat about his new film "˜My Favorite Year' and future star comedian Garry Shandling makes his television debut. His dry, deadpan humor is a huge hit with the audience. Episode has been edited from original broadcast.
