Johnny Carson: Director Discusses 'King Of Late Night' (VIDEO): " watched the PBS American Masters series on Johnny Carson and did more than just solidify his mark in late night history but establish the framework to the comedy writing structure and standup routine that survives today. I was hoping that they would have played his college thesis on comedy, it would have been insightful for many would-be comics. I found myself surprisingly sad and tearful at the end when the end of his ;life was near. Even though I already knew it, I was sad still and I was surprised to see Drew Carey being tearful as he spoke of his first time on the show and Johnny called him over. It was also interesting seeing @GarryShandling also in tears as he spoke on hearing about JOhnny's death. He had come to the conclusion that they were friends and he didn't realize it until he sat on his deck looking over at Johnny's place. Johnny was King, still is and that will never be another one."
