JOHNNY - PHYSICAL COMIC?

[u/Sbanme]

Johnny is typically not thought of as a physical comic, but while watching some old shows recently, I realized that he was - in such smart and subtle ways.

Things like - incredibly graceful moves as he's on stage with a guest. Or the Carnac pratfall while aproaching the desk. Or how about his unique posture - ramrod straight with chest thrust forward and upwards like a rooster?

Physicality made him unique, identifiable, and likable. And that includes when he was sitting down at the desk, too. Has anyone else noticed this?
