Quotes
-
Ed McMahon : You don't stop in big cities when you're on the road - you stop in little, small places.
Johnny Carson : Why can't you stop in big cities?
Ed McMahon : Why would you want to go into a large city when you're camping out, going across the country? You stop at little motels!
Johnny Carson : You were not camping out - you were driving a Cadillac!
Ed McMahon : For me, that's camping out!
-
Suzanne Pleshette : I did not sleep with Johnny for this part, for two reasons: A, he didn't ask me...
Johnny Carson : Oh, come on.
Suzanne Pleshette : And B, it's not that good a part.
Johnny Carson : ...What part are you talking about?
-
Johnny Carson : I could have hoped, maybe, a small role - like Hitchcock used to do.
Suzanne Pleshette : You really should have. I thought maybe, at the cemetery, you would have that day.
Ed McMahon : Yeah - you could have been a mourner.
Johnny Carson : Hm?
Ed McMahon : A mourner, at the cemetery. You would have been a great mourner. Think of one of your old monologues.
