History of Late Night TV
Here's Johnny!
Here are some clips from the king of late night
1976: Frank Sinatra and Don Rickles join Johnny Carson
Here's a sensitive topic: Johnny and Dave discuss Jay Leno taking over for Johnny in 1991.
Here's an iconic moment in the history of television. After his retirement, Johnny makes a brief appearance on David Letterman's show. This was in 1994, and it would be Johnny's last appearance on television.
On Johnny's next to last episode (5-21-92) he is serenaded by Bette Midler. His other guest that night was Robin Williams. This is wonderful. His final show was a retrospective of memories.
