1. Johnny Carson

   John William Carson (October 23, 1925 – January 23, 2005) was an American television host, comedian, writer, and producer. He is best known as the host of The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (1962–1992). Carson received six Primetime Emmy Awards, the Television Academy's 1980 Governor's Award, and a 1985 Peabody Award. He was inducted into the Television Academy Hall of Fame in 1987. Carson was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1992 and received a Kennedy Center Honor in 1993.During World War II, Carson served in the Navy. After the war, Carson started a career in radio. He moved from radio to TV and followed Jack Paar as the host of the late night talk show, Tonight. Although his show was already successful by the end of the 1960s, during the 1970s, Carson became an American icon and remained so even after his retirement in 1992. He adopted a casual, conversational approach with extensive interaction with guests, an approach pioneered by Arthur Godfrey and previous Tonight Show hosts Steve Allen and Jack Paar but enhanced by Carson's lightning-quick wit. Former late-night host and friend David Letterman, as well as many others, have cited Carson's influence. He is widely considered to be the king of late-night TV.

Examples of Johnny Carson in a Sentence

1. Paul Reiser today .:

   I think that’s part of what makes The Tonight Show so special and unique, nobody else has The Tonight Show. To be able to use actual footage of Johnny Carson every night as the show these characters are creating and making every night, it really gives it authenticity … And for me, it was just an extra bonus of joy to go through these clips and pick them out. It was an embarrassment of riches. Most of them I have n’t even seen. A lot of them I remembered, but have n’t watched in 40 years. Not only do you see these guests again, but you can watch Johnny’s skill. Johnny Carson every night was just so good. Johnny Carson every night really set the standard.
