Stayin up Late

I’m back to Sugar Crisp because it seems like a healthier choice than Cocoa Puffs, for some reason. I’ve eaten them every morning this week while I watch Conan O’Brien which comes on Star TV at 10:00am every day.

I’ve been able to fall asleep a little earlier at night ever since I got back from Florida, so I haven’t been watching a ton of late night TV. It’s awesome that Star TV repeats the previous evening’s broadcast of Conan’s show.I’m a huge fan of the late night talk show genre. I can remember being a little kid and being at my grandparent’s house sometimes when they were baby sitting me, and begging them to let me stay up and watch Johnny Carson with them . I distinctly remember telling them that I thought Johnny Carson was the funniest man in the world and if he had animals on the show that night, I really wanted to see it.
I was too young to actually admire Johnny Carson for being as brilliant as he was, but I always got to stay up late to watch the Tonight Show, and getting to stay up late when you’re a little kid used to be a big deal. It was to me, as I recall!

Watching all the old footage of the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson that has been airing this past week sure has brought back a lot of good memories. Somewhere along the line, I actually ended up getting really hooked on the Late Night Talk Show genre.
I think Letterman is still the man, but there will never ever be another Johnny Carson and Late Night Television will definitely never be the same again.

Anybody can get a show on TV these days I suppose.You don’t have to have any real talent at all or at least that's how it seems which is a good thing I quess. It means that I still got a shot!!(lol)

So I'll just keep pluggin away and see what happens .........
