	The Tonight Show - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The show is shot in 16:9 aspect ratio with a 4:3 center-cut for standard definition TV viewers.
		The Tonight Show is also seen around the world on many channels, although an early attempt at airing the show in the United Kingdom in the 1980s was unsuccessful, sparking jokes by Carson.
		Tonight With Des O'Connor was considered by many the UK equivalent of the show, as was Wogan (hosted by Terry Wogan).

	The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson was the full name of NBC's The Tonight Show during the years that Johnny Carson hosted from 1962 to 1992.
		The show's announcer and Carson's sidekick was Ed McMahon, who from the very first show would introduce Carson with a drawn-out "Heeeeeeeeerrrreeee's Johnny!" (something McMahon was inspired to do by the over-emphasized way he had introduced reporter Robert Pierrepoint on the NBC Radio show Monitor).
		George Carlin was a frequent guest on the "Tonight Show", so when the debut of Saturday Night Live was in preparation there was supposedly an agreement that SNL's producers would not have Carlin on their show.

		The show was reinvented with each host, and (at least) in the case of Carson and Leno unjumped the shark that the predecessor host had jumped.
		The Tonight Show totally jumped the second Carson left and Leno took over.Seeing those infomercials where you can buy Carsons greatest bits on video or DVD only further solidify the painful truth that Leno is a no-talent hack.Even one of Letterman's off nights are by far funnier than any of Leno's night.
		Yes, the Tonight Show can use a few improvements--the chats with the guests could be more spontaneous, with less emphasis on their plugging new projects--but that's always been the case, even with Johnny Carson.

		Music is provided by The Tonight Show Band, led since 1995 by Kevin Eubanks (no relation to Bob Eubanks of "The Newlywed Game" fame), who replaced Leno's original musical director, Branford Marsalis.
		Unfortunately for Joan Rivers, her new show flopped and was immediately cancelled, and when she tried to call Johnny Carson he refused to speak to her.
