The Story of Late Night

It's painful seeing clips of Carson and Letterman and then immediately going to Fallon and Corden. It's sad how much of a dropoff there has been and now late night is just a contant pandering to the seals that applaud when the applause light goes on. There's rarely any genuine laughter - just a series of applause breaks during the monolgue and then the shilling for whatever movie/tv show is being plugged. And if it's a TV show, then that show is 90% likely to be on the same network that the talk show is on.

But that's beside the point. This is another great, comprehensive series that really goes deep without it seeming like it is stretched out for the purposes of creating more episodes... you know... the way Netflix now does. It's nice to hear from so many people who weren't necessarily the stars, to hear about what was going on in the background of it all.
