#9694: TONIGHT SHOW STARRING JOHNNY CARSON, THE
1977-02-14, NBC, 15 min.
Carol Burnett , Johnny Carson , Foster Brooks , Edwin Newman , Orson Welles

October 1, 1962-May 22, 1992. Johnny Carson, host of NBC's network late-night "Tonight Show" reigned for 30 unprecedented years...five times the combined tenure of Steve Allen, and Jack Paar. Carson was impervious to competition, including efforts to dethrone him by Les Crane, Joey Bishop, Merv Griffin, Dick Cavett, Jack Paar, Pat Sajak, Joan Rivers, and Arsenio Hall. Sadly, very few complete "Tonight Show" broadcasts survive during Johnny Carson's first ten years of broadcasting. Around 1965, through the early 1970s, oldest tapes were first erased systematically by orders from myopic NBC executives, to be recycled for purposes of saving money. Ironically, in many cases, these older master tapes were too brittle and portended probable drop-outs for re-use after being erased. Subsequently blank after being erased, these older questionable master 2" Quad tapes were either sparingly used or never used again for recording new programming and eventually were discarded. Saving thousands of dollars at the time (wiping master tapes for potential re-use) resulted in losing millions of dollars by NBC in today's marketplace, and more importantly wiping thousands of historic TONIGHT SHOW broadcasts, which contain precious personal anecdotes from political, show business, and sports icons of the past.

Guest Host: Orson Welles. This program is a 15-minute excerpt.

Tom Snyder , Jacqueline Onassis , Jacqueline Kennedy , Larry Flynt , Harold Ferringer

"The Tomorrow Show" with Tom Snyder is NOT AVAILABLE FOR SALE.

October 15, 1973-January 28, 1982. 

Tom Snyder's guest is Larry Flynt, publisher of the pornographic magazine HUSTLER which was first released to the public in July 1974, at which time Flynt made his first National television appearance on The Tomorrow Show. 

Charged in February of 1977 with obscenity and organized crime ties, he was tried in Cincinnati and convicted of all charges, although the verdict was later overturned on appeal due to allegations of prosecutorial misconduct and judicial and jury bias.   

 In this little known rare interview given prior to an assassination attempt on his life (March 6, 1978) which left him paralyzed and wheel chair bound for the rest of his life, Snyder is very probing. Flynt, later joined by  his attorney, discusses his current court case and explores the subject of the first amendment and what is the right to publish and what is not is the right to publish, including graphic  pornography without government censorship, and the  distribution of pornography, including the August 1975 Hustler publication of nude photos of Jacqueline Onassis which host Tom Snyder expresses his objection. 

The question here is freedom of the press, the press being a smut magazine which manages to offend more people than all its competitors (Penthouse, Screw, Playboy) combined. 

Perhaps these are the qualities which made the rare Flynt's appearance on the Tomorrow Show the prize of late night television. In an interview taped soon after Larry Flynt's Cincinnati conviction, Tom Snyder, demanded to know how Flynt could publish a magazine which so egregiously corrupted the minds of readers. Flynt reminded Snyder that experts (most notably the recent Commission on Obscenity and Pornography) had not been able to establish the link between reading obscenity and committing obscene acts. If in fact pornography is dangerous, mused Flynt, just contemplate the ravaged minds of all the psychologists and assistant D.A.'s who spend forty hours a week perusing the stuff. Snyder was not deterred: what of the people who are not "mature" enough to realize that Hustler is for the most part an indulgence in sexual fantasy, the few people who in fact might read Hustler and take some of its perversity not only to heart but out to the streets as well? Flynt shook his head with blustery impatience. "I don't publish a magazine for the mentally ill," he replied.

Also joining in on the discussion is Larry Flynt's attorney, Harold Ferringer who has defended other cases related to pornography including the motion picture, "Deep Throat."
Additional conversation centers around the sordid conditions presently existing in Times Square. 

NOTE: This "lost" broadcast, which is not extant in any broadcast form in any of the major archives (Paley Center, NBC News, UCLA Film & TV Archive, Museum of Broadcasting, Library of Congress) other than this complete ATA TV Audio Air Check was not advertised as scheduled.. It replaced the original regularly scheduled broadcast advertised with guest Monte Hall. Tom Snyder discusses the circumstances behind this last minute change and states that the Monte Hall program, recorded on February 18th  will be aired on March 11th (AM EST). Also scheduled guest California congressman Robert Dorman does not have the chance to appear as the entire program is centered on Larry Flynt. 

NOTE: Snyder begins the show mentioning that this broadcast is to be the final one from studio 6A Rockefeller Center from where he did his first show October 15, 1973. A nostalgic sad farewell. Snyder also admits he feels Hustler Magazine is a "rag" publication during his revealing  conversation with Larry Flynt.

"The Tomorrow Show" with Tom Snyder is NOT AVAILABLE FOR SALE.

October 15, 1973-January 28, 1982. 

This was the "Making of a Star" broadcast which explores the subject of what goes into the making of a star? 
The peculiar special breed of make up it takes for a person to become an actor who really makes it big.  

Appearing on this broadcast, Joanne Baron, an aspiring actress from New York, Budd Friedman, owner and founder of the improvisational East & West, Juliette Taylor, director of East Coast casting for Paramount Pictures, Robert Moss, president of the off, off Broadway theater alliance, and David Graham, an independent casting director from Los Angeles.  

An hour-long talk show hosted by Tom Snyder. Network television's first entry into late-late-night programming on weeknights Monday thru Thursday, usually broadcasting on tape 1 AM to 2 AM. "Tomorrow" was expanded to 90 minutes on September 16, 1980. 

  Established as more of an intimate talk show, Tomorrow differed from Tonight and later late-night fare, with host Snyder conducting one-on-one interviews sans audience, cigarette in hand, no writing staff or scripted pieces, alternating between asking hard-hitting questions and offering personal observations that made the interview closer to a genuine conversation. 
Topics covered
Although eventually best known for hosting writers, authors, film directors, actors, musicians, etc. for in-depth conversations, on most nights during its first year on the air Tomorrow assumed the framing of a news program with newsmagazine-type generalized panel discussions focused around a single social/lifestyle issue or otherwise interesting topic. These included illegitimate children, UFO sightings, suicide, male prostitution, pickup artists, child abuse, race and intelligence, film censorship, bisexuality, witchcraft, Vietnamese orphans fathered by U.S. soldiers, consumerism, lives of single persons, exorcism, police brutality, transsexuals, Bermuda Triangle, gambling, Catholicism in U.S. society, professional team sports, teenage alcoholism, weekly newspapers, trucking, rape, ageing, crime, divorce, cosmetic surgery, etc. as well as on-location shows featuring Snyder's reportages from the Elysium Fields Institute nudist colony in Topanga, California and Tennessee State Penitentiary. It also hosted somewhat unusual and atypical guests for the corporate-owned nationally-televised U.S. network talk-shows such as sixteen-year-old spiritual leader Guru Maharaj Ji, authoritative Tennessee sheriff Buford Pusser, Playgirl editor Marin Milan, actress Sue Lyon who had just married an imprisoned convict, Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan in Louisiana David Duke, etc. According to Tomorrow associate producer Sonny Fox, the decision to often go after the unconventional, even bordering on bizarre, content was made in part due to the 1 a.m. time slot—with the show's producers feeling that the audience staying up that late would be receptive to a slightly odd subject matter; the decision also had to do with the strict guidelines set by Carson's Tonight Show whose host and producers wanted to ensure that newly-launched Tomorrow had no overlap with their show, limiting its showbiz-adjacent pool of guests to those Carson was not interested in hosting.    

NOTE:
  Wiping, is a colloquial term for action taken by radio and television production and broadcasting companies, in which old audiotapes, videotapes, and kinescopes, were erased and reused, or destroyed. Although the practice was once very common, especially in the 1960s and 1970s, wiping programing was for the most part discontinued after1980 by all three networks (CBS -1972,  ABC - 1978, NBC- 1980). 

Prior to 1978 a great percentage of Tomorrow Shows were wiped by NBC. Currently extant are only forty three 1973-1977 broadcasts  which are archived by  NBC and Getty. A few dozen bootleg copies have been uploaded to you tube. And there have been three DVD collections of musical guests appearing on The Tomorrow Show,  distributed commercially by The Shout Factory.

Other shows representing The Tomorrow Show's first  four plus years of broadcasting have been erased, and no longer exit in any broadcast form.  

Older video and audio formats were both much more expensive (relative to the amount of material that could be stored) and took up much more storage space than modern digital video or audio files, making their retention more costly, and there was more incentive to recycle the media for reuse. A 2" quadraplex one hour video tape weighed 13 pounds and cost $500 in 1960 which is the equivalent of $5,000 today.

    Joan Rivers substitutes for Johnny Carson. Her guest in this fifteen minute segment is Roddy McDowall who discusses his latest entrance into television starring in a series titled "Fantastic Journey." 
 Roddy reminisces about his first movies made in the UK and coming to America with his family in 1940 when after being there only two weeks landed a prominent role in John Ford's "How Green Was My Valley."
Other topics include memories of working with Lassie, whom he loved, working for eight months in the Keith Vaudeville circuit as a comedian and singer, his love for photography beginning commercially in the 1950's taking pictures for Vogue magazine including those of Ava Gardner, Mae West, and Judy Holliday.

Commercials include 9 Lives, Spray & Wash, NBC News promotional,  Bobby Vinton Show and Marcus Welby Show. 

 Johnny Carson, host of NBC's network late-night "Tonight Show" reigned for 30 unprecedented years...five times the combined tenure of Steve Allen, and Jack Paar. Carson was impervious to competition, including efforts to dethrone him by Les Crane, Joey Bishop, Merv Griffin, Dick Cavett, Jack Paar, Pat Sajak, Joan Rivers, and Arsenio Hall. Sadly, very few complete "Tonight Show" broadcasts survive during Johnny Carson's first ten years of broadcasting. Around 1965, through the early 1970's, oldest tapes were first erased systematically by orders from myopic NBC executives, to be recycled for purposes of saving money. Ironically, in many cases, these older master tapes were too brittle, and portended probable dropouts for re-use after being erased. Subsequently blank after being erased, these older questionable master 2" Quad tapes were either sparingly used or never used again for recording new programming and eventually were discarded. Saving thousands of dollars at the time (wiping master tapes for potential re-use) resulted in losing millions of dollars by NBC in today's marketplace, and more importantly wiping thousands of historic TONIGHT SHOW broadcasts, which contain precious personal anecdotes from political, show business, and sports icons of the past.

October 1, 1962-May 22, 1992. Johnny Carson, host of NBC's network late-night "Tonight Show" reigned for 30 unprecedented years...five times the combined tenure of Steve Allen, and Jack Paar. Carson was impervious to competition, including efforts to dethrone him by Les Crane, Joey Bishop, Merv Griffin, Dick Cavett, Jack Paar, Pat Sajak, Joan Rivers, and Arsenio Hall. Sadly, very few complete "Tonight Show" broadcasts survive during Johnny Carson's first ten years of broadcasting. Around 1965, through the early 1970s, oldest tapes were first erased systematically by orders from myopic NBC executives, to be recycled for purposes of saving money. Ironically, in many cases, these older master tapes were too brittle and portended probable drop-outs for re-use after being erased. Subsequently blank after being erased, these older questionable master 2" Quad tapes were either sparingly used or never used again for recording new programming and eventually were discarded. Saving thousands of dollars at the time (wiping master tapes for potential re-use) resulted in losing millions of dollars by NBC in today's marketplace, and more importantly wiping thousands of historic TONIGHT SHOW broadcasts, which contain precious personal anecdotes from political, show business, and sports icons of the past.

Guest Host: Bob Newhart.

Negro League Baseball- A look at black baseball in America.

Host: Curt Gowdy.  

 In this program, hosted by Curt Gowdy and Dick Enberg, the history of the Negro baseball leagues is discussed. The guests are some of the greatest players to come out of those leagues, including Satchel Paige, Monte Irvin, Don Newcombe, Willie Forster, Ted Page, Chet Brewer, and Quincy Trouppe. Highlights include: the history of the Negro League dating back to the Civil War era; Adrain "Cap" Anson's refusal to let his team play against competition beginning in 1887 if there were any black players on the field and how other teams followed his lead; Andrew "Rube" Forster's formation of an all-black players league in response to the segregation enforced by other teams; the sub-par conditions that the Negro League teams had to overcome including inferior living, playing, and equipment conditions; the types of crowds that would show up for the games and whether or not the stadiums would sell-out; the differences in the style of that game that was played in the Negro Leagues as compared to that of the Major Leagues; how the Negro League season sometimes went on for as long as two hundred games, with Negro League teams often playing two games a day in different cities; the opinion of the guests that the fastest man to ever play the game was James "Cool Papa" Bell, who was able to run from first base to home plate on a bunt and once stole one-hundred-and-seventy bases in a season; an example of the gloves the players used day in and day out; and what it was like playing against the Major Leaguers when both of their seasons were over. Also, expressed how if felt being banned from Major League Baseball.

Reminiscences from the panel related to great Black Ballplayers in their time, including, Josh Gibson, Oscar Charleston, Buck Leonard, Martin Dihigo, Dave Malarcher, others.
