Eyes Of A Generation EXCLUSIVE! Unseen Late Night History!

Thanks To Glenn Mack for making this available to us just in time for a Sunday morning look back at the start of late night television. This great 9 minute clip, hosted by Conan O’Brien shows us many rare scenes, including NBC’s Pat Weaver who was the father of this all. At around 6:20, we get to see some of the rare video of Jack Paar’s departure and return to ‘Tonight’ and much more, including interview footage of Jerry Lester, who hosted ‘Broadway Open House’ and some rare footage of Steve Allan’s local WNBT show, along with his first night as ‘Tonight’ host. And…there are Johnny Carson’s first minutes too. Enjoy and SHARE!
