Dick & Woody talk about food & health

Woody Allen has a theological duty to bite off his final consonants on a regular basis.

I love this interview -- Cavett did superior interviews, he took time, he asked good questions, and you felt like you took away something substantial from his interviews. I miss them! Thank you for posting these, cavettbiter!

I love Woody Allen, he's a comedic genius. Dick Cavett's such a great great host, my favourite next to Johnny Carson.

I've never seen Dick Cavett's hair move. Was it a plastic cap?

[CreamedCheesed]

Is it a trademark (however unintentional it might be) of the show to have the microphone overhead clearly in view?

rerally, well ther mark twain awrd for comedy went to steve martin AFTER you had played clarinet at the new orleans jazz and heritage festival, it's funny that steve martin played banjo. Go figur

@unconventionalmeans Hmm, I can appreciate what you are saying, but I can't agree. They are so different in terms of personality -- not to mention the structure of their shows -- that I see little similarity, and certainly not enough to warrant the designation "bogus." I like them both.

@darkprose

I liked Dick Cavettt too. But to be fair, one thing about Dick that was kinda bogus was the fact that his mannerisms were so "Johnny Carson-ish"!

I mean, you gotta admit, to a certain extent, when Dick Cavett was standing on stage doing his opening routine......he was kind of a Johnny Carson rip-off.

But having said all that...I do think that Dick Cavett had better guests on his show than Carson had on hi. Cavett had way more younger, hipper musical guests on his show.

Cavett was a great interviewer. Many, dare I say most modern US chat show hosts are vulgar, stupid or boring, if not all three, and have a tendency to use the word "like" as if they're a schoolgirl on a cellphone, regardless the stature of the person they're talking to.
