9/10
Informative well done in depth educational and historical look at the iconic late night wars!
3 June 2021
"CNN" has once again done it well with a culture historical like look at entertainment this latest "The Story of Late Night", from the early days of the 1950's and "The Tonight Show" with Steve Allen till the modern day digital computer era these episodes show vintage clips that tell it all. Plus interviews are given with insights and takes from network and studio bosses on the backroom deals and plots to change the landscape. And media critic and author Bill Carter gives his knowledgeable thoughts. From Carson, Leno, Letterman, Conan, Fallon, and Kimmel this is one funny business with constant changes as the series documents in fine fashion. The series goes in depth with time and change with each decade and era, most I can all recall. Really a must watch for any pop culture history buff or late night TV show fan it will bring back memories of yesterday.
