#382: TONIGHT SHOW STARRING JOHNNY CARSON, THE
1963-02-04, NBC, 18 min.
Johnny Carson, Ed McMahon, Huntz Hall

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.

We are introduced to the show's opening by announcer Ed McMahon, who also jokes with Johnny Carson during his monologue. Guest is Huntz Hall. Johnny Carson's fifth month as star of the Tonight Show.
#679A: JOE FRANKLIN SHOW, THE
1964-08-04, WOR, 13 min.
Joe Franklin, Huntz Hall

Joe Franklin interviews actor Huntz Hall, most remembered as a member of The Dead End Kids, The East Side Kids and The Bowery Boys. Joe mentions that he has never met Hall before, but knows about his career very well, having seen the original Broadway Play Dead End which also starred Leo Gorcy, Billy Halop, Bobby Jordan, Gabriel Dell, and Bernard Punsly .

Huntz Hall discusses topics including type casting, his relationship with fellow Dead End actors...their first trip to Hollywood. 
He states that he currently plans to make a film with Leo Gorcy this fall, and that he has 10% of Gorcy's will. They are best of friends. 
Huntz mentions that he and Leo always wanted to form a two person comedy team, but money and circumstances never allowed for it to materialize.
