Johnny Carson

I was a big Johnny Carson fan. As a young man I stayed up late whenever I could and watched Johnny. I saw the B&W shows with Ed and Skitch through the move to Hollywood. The best parts of Johnny’s comedic talent were his takes. It is something in which few comics today excel. I watched him until Bette Midler sang to him during the final show. I’ve since switched to Letterman. But Dave would agree: Johnny was the best.
