The Great Toilet Paper Scare

The untold story of a notorious incident involving Johnny Carson, a lot of toilet paper, and millions of fearful Americans. In 1973, as a dire oil crisis plagued the country, Carson made a joke on "The Tonight Show" about a possible paper shortage.

Compiled entirely of archival footage, and animated sequences based on contemporaneous news reports, the film explores the power and impact of misinformation in the media.

Himself
Chronological look at the life and career of Johnny Carson (1925-2005), with commentary from an ex-wife and more than 30 fellow comedians, friends, employees, and biographers. The biography defines why Carson was an enduring star (his cool, his timing, his genuine laugh, his breadth of knowledge) and pursues his motivations and inner self (a loner with a drinking problem, a decent Midwesterner whose mother withheld approval, a quiet person who loved to entertain). The key to understanding him, argues the biography, is his love of magic.

Johnny Carson - His Favorite Moments from 'The Tonight Show' - '80s & '90s: The King of Late Night
Self - Host
Volume 3 of 'The Johnny Carson Collection' - The Best of the '80s & '90s. Some of today's top comedy stars made their Tonight debuts around this time. Roseanne Arnold was just a Domestic-Goddess-in-Training when she first appeared on the show. Other great comics like Steve Martin, George Carlin, and Albert Brooks continued to visit, and I'm delighted with their success. This volume reminds me that our batting average with talking or singing birds was not good. Once they got in front of the lights, they clammed up like captured spies - except Pancho the Parrot. This month of May, 1992, was an emotional one for all of us. Many friends dropped in to say goodbye. The program of May 21, 1992, provided some electric moments. My final guest was Bette Midler, and the memory of that night will be with me forever. I hope you enjoy all the fond memories in this volume.

Volume 2 of 'The Johnny Carson Collection' - The Best of the '70s & '80s. The moments that spring immediately to mind include some very funny sketches with Betty White, a superb comedienne. And besides being a great musician, Doc Severinsen can be very funny, as you'll see when he shares a Thanksgiving memory of the past. Wild Kingdom's Jim Fowler and Joan Embry of the San Diego Zoo managed to bring to the show wildlife of every kind. One of the most requested involved a marmoset which showed no respect whatsoever. Jimmy Stewart - what a class act! When Jimmy read a poem dedicated to his dog, it generated the most requests ever! So sit back, relax and enjoy these special moments.
Johnny Carson - His Favorite Moments from 'The Tonight Show' - '60s & '70s: Heeere's Johnny!
Self - Host
Volume 1 of 'The Johnny Carson Collection' - The Best of the '60s & '70s. I'm often asked, "What is your favorite moment during the 30 years you hosted The Tonight Show?" I really don't have just one. The times I enjoyed the most were the spontaneous, unplanned segments that just happened, like Ed Ames' infamous "Tomahawk Toss" that produced one of the longest laughs in television history. When these lucky moments happen, you just go with them, and enjoy the experience and high of the moment. And of course, the planned moments bring their own surprises. Little did we suspect that when Tiny Tim married Miss Vicki on our show that, outside of man's first walk on the moon, it would become the most watched event of the year. And with Leno's and Letterman's first appearances on The Tonight Show... Well, look at them now! I hope this collection of moments from The Tonight Show of the '60s & '70s includes some of your favorites.
