Say what you will about Carnac, that is one of the funniest moments of television I have ever seen.
It’s a legitimately very funny joke. But what made the bit immortal was Johnny trying to get through it without laughing and spoiling it (He knew the punchline beforehand, Ed didn’t), and then everybody losing it afterward.

Carnac was great, but Ed McMahon's chortling was a bit over the top.

He got paid a lot of money to do that. Respect.

Yeah. I am sure McMahon got paid more money to laugh at jokes than he would have made at any other job he could have held during the 60’s and 70’s.
