Goodbye Johnny
Johnny Carson died today.
many here on SW are to young to have ever seen him and think Leno when thinking about the tonight show.
In his day,Johnny Carson set the standard for many things.He introduced the world to itself nightly.
In the days of only 3(thats right,i said 3)TV channels,after a certain time of night,his channel was the one watched.
I wish his family well.
Goodnight Mr Carson.

Mr. Carson was a supremely classy guy.

Re: Goodbye Johnny
Yes, he did have class as well. Plus he gave quite a boost to jazz (he played drum set himself).
He had a great run. I saw most of it. Good thing my ribs had overnight to recover.
Goodbyyyyyyyye, Johnny !

Re: Goodbye Johnny
On Monday's Tonight Show, Jay did a tribute for Johnny interspersing file footage from classic Tonight Shows and interviews with longtime sidekick Ed McMahon and Don Rickles. He will be missed.
