Watching this video makes me feel like it is 11:50 PM on a Tuesday night and I have to decide when to turn the TV off so I am not too tired for high school tomorrow. Needless to say, I was sleepy many mornings going to school ... and glad I was! 💖💖
I was born in 1980 so by the time I started watching the late show around 1994 it was David Letterman and while he was okay Johnny and Ed were hilarious, I love watching these old segments..
On that date my girlfriend and I had been living in our first apartment together for a little more than 5 months. We were either at some friends house that Friday night or maybe partying at home. I was 21 and my girlfriend was 19. Wow, the memories.
The reason that Craig Ferguson’s Late Late Show was so iconic and brilliant is that Craig, alone amongst every other late night show, did not try to copy Carson. Instead, he deconstructed the genre. That’s why he’s second best to Johnny.
