Mel Brooks' tribute to Carl Reiner after friend's 2020 death: Dinner at his place, for a year

For years comedy legends and best friends Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks met nightly at Reiner's home for dinner, where they then sat and watched television together. Then, for a year after Reiner died in 2020, Brooks (now 96) continued going to his home for dinner, Reiner's family told correspondent Jim Axelrod in an interview to be broadcast on "Sunday Morning" January 1 on CBS and streamed on Paramount+. 

"One year, he would go over to the house, and sit there, have dinner and watch television – when my dad wasn't there for a whole year," Reiner's son, filmmaker Rob Reiner, told Axelrod. 

Before Carl died, the two comic legends would sit and talk about "old music, and old actors, and old movies," said daughter Annie Reiner.
