August 1, 1933 – May 4, 2009

This Old School talk show clip features Johnny Carson interviewing sex-kitten Edy Williams in 1973 on The Johnny Carson Show.  While the focus of the interview is clearly Edy Williams, Dom DeLuise (who passed away this week) is seated next to her and adds to the show as only he can.  The audio is awful but it’s worth struggling through to see the late, great DeLuise in his full comedic glory.

On his official website is the following statement about his life and death:

“It’s easy to mourn his death, but easier to remember a time when he made you laugh.”
