I don’t recall Johnny smoking on the show, but I do recall him claiming that free coffee was a constitutional right.
As long as there’s room for me in there.
Absolutely. If you notice , he always smokes twice - clearly a product placement deal…
Anyway, it ended up killing him.
It was so thick it was like they had a fog machine in the studio.
Back to the OP, I don’t recall Johnny ever smoking a cig (tobacco or otherwise) on-camera. But there may be episodes I haven’t seen.
@Motorgirl: See if you have Amerlife on your cable. I think they rerun it from time to time.
and carson **and ** snyder, IIRC.
I think I remember an episode of Columbo where he was smoking on a PLANE. I remember when I was a kid, it was always a big deal if we were travelling with my cousin’s family because her dad insisted on taking “smoking flight”. There were little ashtrays in the armrests of the seats.
Now if I’m travlling out of town and I go to a restaurant, I think it’s really bizarre if the host/ess asks “Smoking or non-smoking?”
Here’s a 1950s Philip Morris ad featuring Lucy & Desi in a very un-PC spot (“See how easy it is to please your man?”) and a spot with Flintstones with more sexism. Funny that cigarettes were pitched mainly as a MAN’s thing.
Whippersnapper. I remember when the “stewardess” passed out complimentary packs of cigarets before each flight.
And I remember reading this thread 9 years ago when I was still a lurker.
Rob Petrie smoked upon occasion on The Dick van Dyke Show.
I think some characters smoked on Mary Tyler Moore and on Rhoda. SNL also had smokers (perhaps not cigs, though).
