    Ah, yes! David Letterman & Johnny Carson: The one-two late night punch. You're not going to get anywhere close to this late night duo in a long time. They are truly amazing. Johnny's the best, Dave is right behind him, Steve Allen & Jack Paar are behind them even though they were the original late night talk show hosts, and Tom Snyder was the first guy to do a late night talk show after The Tonight Show. Craig Kilborn, Craig Ferguson, Arsenio Hall, and Conan O'Brien all came pretty close, but Johnny and Dave will never be topped. Not even Jon Stewart can top Johnny & Dave. Nobody can top them!

    I notice that when Letterman was on Carson's show, Johnny would lose his nervousness and twitches. He was just having fun. Letterman was not just the guest, and Carson was not just the host. They were a team, making comedy together. Johnny didn't have to work on those nights. He could just relax and enjoy doing what he enjoyed the most: creating comedy.

    Having watched Both growing up. And reminding everyone there was only 4 channels... DAVID was after CARSON. And early on...very..very Funny. He got very cynical by the end. However...for years these two ruled late nights. Merv Griffin is there reference. A name few remember. His Top 10 lists were topical. Paul was oddly funny. The other programs? Monty Python. Midnight Special. Sha-na-na. Benny Hill. Second city television. Thanks for THIS moment in TIME!

    People forget that show was not great just because of carson but also because of celebrities at that time they were poised , calm and interesting and had earned their position nowadays people just become famous because of online trends, mocking each other, telling lies, associating with labels and big companies, changing genders etc. They do not have a nice personality bit just a mask of lies .
