After 27 guffaw-filled years, Friday night was the last evening I will be spending with NBC's "Late Night"... 11 years of Dave and 16 years of Conan. They made me laugh, made me cry (with laughter), sometimes made me squirm (especially in the early days with Letterman's frequently brutal treatment of his guests)... and made me sleep through my early classes more often than not. So many eccentric entities... from Larry "Bud" Melman to the Fugitive Guy (Chris Elliott) to Carl "Oldy" Olson to the Masturbating Bear... so many other memorable characters I can't seem to remember! It was nearly three decades of great comedy that made for tremendous television... and now? The legendary franchise is being handed over to the insufferable Jimmy Fallon.
Guess I'll have to occupy my time with other endeavors... sleep, perhaps.
