The Martin and Lewis Show

Uncensored - Featuring Danny Thomas

November 1951

This is how the show sounds before the editing to put a 30 minute program on the air. 

Hilarious and chaotic as Jerry runs wild and Dean is ready to get it in the can to get to the hospital for the birth of his son Dean Paul Martin.

Dean Martin and Johnny Carson

I found a couple of really fun clips of Dean Martin on the Tonight Show in the 1970s.  The first is from 1973 and the second is from 1977.  We see the well cultivated act of Dean the drunk and confused, but he was neither and still was brilliant at what he did, entertain.  These clips also show just how fast Johnny Carson was with his ad libs and when to sit back and enjoy the show himself.
