I hope you included the Joan Rivers vs Carson falling out. She was the guest host of the tonight show whenever Carson was out, and it was big whenever she hosted. Only to find out that she wasn t included in the list of successors when Carson was planning to retire in the 80s. Rivers started her own talk show on Fox, same time slot as the Tonight Show, it wasn t very successful though. And he never talked to her again until they both died.
She was also banned from guesting on the Tonight Show until Jimmy Fallon took over.

Fun Fact: The Entirety of The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson Aired throughout Richard Petty's Entire NASCAR career which began 4 years before the show's inception.
And Another Fun Fact: The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson came to an end less than 6 months before Richard Petty's NASCAR Career came to an end in which both occurred in 1992.

Conan leaving The Tonight Show and ending up at TBS was a blessing in disguise. He was able to do his thing with minimal restrictions, and he created some fantastic comedic moments. With The Tonight Show he would have ended up like Fallon, having to fake-laugh at everything for 11 years.

2: 46 Some of my favorite Phil Hartman SNL skits were the ones where he was Fred Savage's father.
For example, when he was embarassed of his son's lame imaginary friend.
Or when he hid his gun in the last place his son would find it. in a cereal box.

8: 22 Magic Johnson was my favorite basketball player growing up, even had the same basketball number (#32) as him for high school basketball.
He started the NBA the year I was born and Larry Bird (who has the same birthday I do) also started that year.

0: 01 Johnny Carson's hometown is Norfolk, Nebraska.
My younger brother lived there when he went to Northeast Community College for the Utility Line program, he also owned a house there until recently. (It's his birthday today actually)

IMO Craig Ferguson will never be surpassed as the late night GOAT but as someone whose 20s lined up perfectly with the 1990s Arsenio was my favorite of the time. I also loved that era of Letterman before he got old and angry.

Carson is, and will be the King of late night talk shows. I've seem a lot of people claim Graham Norton is the best, but watching his show, shows he learned everything from Carson.

I never knew Magic and Chevy had their own talk show back then. Come to think of it, I usually sleep before 10: 00 p. m. so I'll never be able to watch those anyways.

Back then when they were funny and made fun of everyone, instead all they do is tell retarded Trump jokes and back up their own politics only.

I grew up watching Conan on TBS he is the king, in my opinion, so many school nights spent staying up late watching Conan and playing my DS

I have to confess, the idea of actual talk show wars, like Jay Leno & Conan O Brien leading troops into battle is really hilarious to me.
