October 1, 1962-May 22, 1992. Johnny Carson, host of NBC's network late-night "Tonight Show" reigned for 30 unprecedented years...five times the combined tenure of Steve Allen, and Jack Paar. Carson was impervious to competition, including efforts to dethrone him by Les Crane, Joey Bishop, Merv Griffin, Dick Cavett, Jack Paar, Pat Sajak, Joan Rivers, and Arsenio Hall. Sadly, very few complete "Tonight Show" broadcasts survive during Johnny Carson's first ten years of broadcasting. Around 1965, through the early 1970's, oldest tapes were first erased systematically by orders from myopic NBC executives, to be recycled for purposes of saving money. Ironically, in many cases, these older master tapes were too brittle, and portended probable drop-outs for re-use after being erased. Subsequently blank after being erased, these older questionable master 2" Quad tapes were either sparingly used or never used again for recording new programming and eventually were discarded. Saving thousands of dollars at the time (wiping master tapes for potential re-use) resulted in losing millions of dollars by NBC in today's marketplace, and more importantly wiping thousands of historic TONIGHT SHOW broadcasts, which contain precious personal anecdotes from political, show business, and sports icons of the past. Johnny Carson.

Order1966-01-28, WMCA, 11 min.
Barry Gray was an American radio personality, often referred to as "the father of talk radio." His late-night New York City radio talk show was carried by WOR radio and then later by WMCA. Barry Gray returned to WMCA in 1950, and stayed there for 39 years, refining the talk show format still utilized today. During the 1960s, he was in the odd position of having an 11 p.m.-1 a.m. late-night talk show on a station otherwise dominated by Top 40 music and the youth-targeted "Good Guys" disc jockey campaign. But for teenagers who kept their radios on into the night, Gray's show was a window into the high-brow New York culture of the 1940s and 1950s. Barry Gray discusses right-wing groups in New Jersey.

October 14, 1958 - August 13, 1961 OPEN-END with David Susskind: (WNTA Channel 13 Television) September 10, 1961-May 5, 1963 OPEN-END with David Susskind (WNEW Channel 5 Television) June 9, 1963, last show of the season broadcast on WPIX TV. October 13, 1963-September 18, 1966 OPEN-END with David Susskind (WPIX Channel 11 Television) October 2, 1966-September, 1986 DAVID SUSSKIND SHOW (SYNDICATED, PBS, and COMMERCIAL STATIONS, including WNEW, New York). Open End with David Susskind was a breakthrough talk show which literally had no time limit. The show ended when host, moderator David Susskind, felt all conversation points were discussed. Some of these marathon telecasts lasted over four hours! Jean Kennedy was the producer during the 28 year run of the series. The series premiered and aired on WNTA Channel 13 in New York for three years, an independent broadcast station before it would become a Public Broadcast Station in 1962. A myriad of talk show guests, famous, infamous and unknown, found a forum on OPEN END. Subjects varied focusing on usually one topic...show business, politics, the economy, sex, education, crime, etc. Typically, many guests would discuss a subject sitting around a large table with David Susskind moderating, leading his guests with baited questions. On occasion, a solo guest would highlight the show. For the first three years, of its 28-year existence as a regular series, WNTA TV was home to OPEN END which originally began its broadcasts on Tuesday nights, switching on January 18, 1959, to Sunday nights...a future Sunday evening time slot of the week where it would remain until 1986, for the rest of its run. After broadcasting with a two hour truncated format on WNEW form September 10, 1961, to May 5, 1963, a falling out and rift occurred between Susskind and WNEW management centered on WNEW's reluctance to air discussions regarding race relations in America. WPIX reacted with interest in bringing OPEN END to their flagship New York channel. For the last OPEN END show of the 1962-1963 season, WPIX TOOK LAST MINUTE EMERGENCY MEASURES TO CLEAR TWO HOURS ON SUNDAY NIGHT June 9, 1963, featuring solo guest Dr. Martin Luther KIng, pre-empting regularly scheduled programming (6:30-8:30 pm). Open End was later cut by WPIX to a one-hour time slot. David Susskind not satisfied with the shortened format reconnected with WNEW where he returned to a two-hour format with a changed program name. THE DAVID SUSSKIND SHOW had its return premiere on WNEW TV on October 2, 1966. The David Susskind Show also found syndication across the country and each market would run the program at different times at their own discretion. Most all of the telecasts were recorded on videotape, 2" quadruplex. Most shows were kept for a year or two like THE MOVIE MAKERS broadcast which was re-run on August 6, 1961, almost a year after it was the first telecast on October 2, 1960. By this time the show was no longer without a time limit. It ran for a finite three hours long. Thus the re-run of the MOVIE MAKERS had some footage deleted from its original run which aired for over three and half hours, including commercials. The re-run of "THE MOVIE MAKERS" was the next to last broadcast telecast on WNTA channel 13. On September 10, 1961, the show moved to WNEW Channel 5 METROMEDIA in New York. Sadly, most all of OPEN END broadcasts (1958-1966), later retitled THE DAVID SUSSKIND SHOW (1966-1986), were wiped erased, destroyed, discarded...whereabouts unknown, representing most shows produced and telecast during the late 1950s, 1960's and early 1970s. Only a handful of OPEN END / DAVID SUSSKIND shows are known to survive from 1958 thru 1969. Hundreds of programs survive representing the middle 1970's thru 1986. Open End with David Susskind was a unique breakthrough talk with no time limit, rare during any time in television broadcast history, and never to be replicated in the future of television broadcasting after 1960. On occasion, only one guest would be profiled. Most shows were comprised of many individuals discussing one topic which included race relations, the draft, organized crime, the Hollywood scene, the politics of the times, sex-change operations, divorce, clairvoyants, psychoanalysis, and prostitutes. The oldest surviving archived remnant is a December 23, 1958 kinescope 20-minute segment of a broadcast titled "Method or Madness?" The topic, "method acting" with guests Michael Benthal, Ben Gazzara, Adolph Green, Betty Comden, Lawrence Harvey, Jule Styne, and Patricia Neal. . Host: David Susskind. David Susskind and others discuss Robert Kennedy and The White House.
