Dick Cavett? Yes, Dick Cavett.

she.jpgGary Farber only has two blogging modes: not at all, and 20 billion interesting posts a day, often so long that the post you read last time you checked the blog is off the page somewhere at the bottom now. He's back in mode 2, so check it out. This post on Oliver Cromwell's space exploration scheme is nice. And I bet you've been thinking, man, why won't someone on the interweb whose opinions I can trust carefully analyze the 1971 Kerry/O'Neill debate on the Dick Cavett show, so I can know what was up? Wait no more, friend. Cuz Gary Farber is that guy on the interweb.

Tonight I saw on public TV a show about Jack Parr (pre Johnny Carson) and did'nt realize how invloved Dick Cavett was with the show. After seeing a few clips of Dick Cavett I just wanted to say what a class act
Dick is after all these years. I can only hope he sees this and realizes after all these years some people have'nt forgotten him and know what a neat guy he is!!!!!
Take Care Dick and Happy Holidays,

Some of the best TV ever were Dick Cavett interviews. Special favorites which I would be very very happy to find on DVD are the interviews with, Richard Burton, Jonathon Miller, and Richard Harris. Those guys could tell stories.

  • Confused by our comment policy?

    We're testing a strong CC license as a form of troll repellant. Does that sound strange? Read this thread. (I know, it's long. Keep scrolling. Further. Further. Ah, there.) So basically, we figure trolls will recognize that selling coffee cups and t-shirts is the best revenge, and will keep away. If we're wrong about that, at least someone can still sell the cups and shirts. (Sigh.)
