Default Goodnight Johnny Carson

Is everyone here too young to remember Johnny Carson?

The guy was the king of the night. RIP Johnny.

Letterman and Leno are mean in their monologues; Carson never was.

Leno feels compelled to repeat the punchline of nearly ever joke tells; Carson never did. (Perhaps Carson's audience members were quicker than Leno's are.)

Johnny Carson was also a very accomplished sleight-of-hand magician.

Today's a sad day.
