    • Trivia
      Shandling based the show on his experience as the Monday night guest host of The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (1962) from 1986 to 1987. Shandling was offered numerous deals to host his own late-night talk show, but turned them all down.
    • Quotes

      Hank Kingsley: What about the time I chipped my tooth on the bathroom urinal? What the FUCK is so comical about that!

      Larry: It was a back tooth Hank.

      [under his breath]

      Larry: I don't know how you did it.

    Commiehunter is an idiot
