[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 416894, member: 23"] Oh my. This is truly fascinating, and would have made for a very different latter half of the series. What a clever and cheeky workaround. I love that even this has a story behind it. I wasn't sure myself until the credits rolled at the end. Not that I'm overly familiar with Johnny Carson anyway. Certainly not familiar enough to tell an impersonator from the real thing. Gosh. Based on its reputation and popularity I'd been going on the assumption it was regularly #1. But I suppose it was a fairly competitive time in the TV industry. I found myself able to forgive a lot with the final season. Mostly because any repetition felt a little like the series spinning its greatest hits one more time. This is impressive. I hadn't noticed, but I think you might be right. Oh yes. I forgot to mention this one after watching, but I raised my eyebrows at this particular scene. [/QUOTE]
