What are we to do without our top talker? Here's an ode filled with love from me and Miss Walker. As you hang up your suspenders on your dressing room door, I speak for us all when I say we want more. More of the show that we instantly loved, for 25 years couldn't get enough of.
Your unique take on politics, culture and crime, never cutting off guests -- except for Barbra -- always giving them time. You made NAFTA exciting, and that's hard to do. And you scored Paris Hilton's post-jail interview.
Sinatra, George Clooney, Clint Eastwood, Bacall. So many stars, I just can't name them all. From Heather Mills' leg to Ross Perot's twang, you always cajole, not harass or harangue.
But there were moments when your guests had a cow. Seinfeld wasn't canceled, Larry, but I guess you know that by now. Mike Tyson KO'd without throwing a punch. And you got Miss California's sash in a bunch.
You went gaga for Gaga, Sharon Stone, Janet Jackson. Alas, it was Brando who gave you some action. Eight presidents joined you, from Nixon to Obama, and you brought us each moment of O.J.'s long drama.
Some startling shows I'll never forget. Tammy Faye's eyes, Ted Haggart's regret. Your guests made us cry, made us laugh, made us think. Wynonna Judd told you about a God wink.
I hadn't heard that before, so I looked the phrase up. It's a miracle, blessing, an overfilled cup. That's what you are. And as old blue eyes might say, the best is yet to come, Larry. You did it your way.

Yeah, it sure left a mark. Skidmarks in my pants from laughing so hard.
There isn’t any better example than this why here newscast is the lowest rated and she is a joke. Larry had no ratings too so they have a lot in common.

I think it should have been:
“As you hang up your suspenders on your dressing room door, I speak for us all when I say “You were a BORE”.

There was an old libtard named Larry,
Who with the broads could ne'er say narry.
He was on his eighth bride,
And had more on the side,
And from there things really got scary.

They’re sad because now how are they going to go to sleep at night? They can’t just pop Larry King on and zonk out after 5 minutes.

There once was a host oh so perky
Her tv delivery quite quirky
on Larry King Live
her poem did jive
But in real life she’s simply too jerky.

Left a mark??!!
Maybe a skid mark but nothing more from that shrew’s mouth.
