12. How He Judged Tom Snyder
The Tonight Show ran so late, the network called the show that aired after it The Tomorrow Show. The host of that show, Tom Snyder, was not Carson’s favorite. He saw Snyder as the boring insult that followed The Tonight Show. Still, Carson would have Snyder on his show, despite all the disparaging comments he would make about him off-camera. Snyder went on to host another show, The Late Late Show with Tom Snyder, which was an otherwise successful show. Snyder died two years after Carson in 2007.
