From the archives of NBC television comes JOHNNY CARSON: THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION, a compilation of hilarious bits from Carson's lengthy and legendary stint as host of THE TONIGHT SHOW. From 1962-1992, Carson was a staple of American nighttime television, becoming well-known for his ability to connect with his audiences and his quick-witted, improvised quips when written material didn't go as planned. The variety of comedy that Carson was adept as is on display here, with monologues, interviews with a variety of guests, in-character skits, and stand-up. Carson's time as host of THE TONIGHT SHOW made him an important part of American pop culture, and would eventually earn him six Emmy Awards and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. JOHNNY CARSON: THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION will remind audiences why he was so beloved.
