Incredible is right!! Steve Allen and the equally talented Jack Parr ‘passed the torch’ to the all time number one king of late night, in my opinion anyway, Johnny Carson. Okay FReepers, are any of these newer fellas on late night TV today any where close to being in the same league as my ‘big three’? (I don’t believe I have viewed any of the current hosts more than once or twice in many years).

Nah, I gave up on late night TV once Johnny retired. I made sure to watch his last week on the air and hoped he’d make more appearances later, but he didn’t...another part of American life which will never return.
