Today is TV Talk Show Host Day.

We celebrate and honor all TV Talk Show hosts (especially since so many of them have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain this year.)

This very special day is celebrated on the birth date of legendary night time talk show host Johnny Carson. Carson is considered the “King of Late Night Television“. He hosted The Tonight Show from 1962 to 1992 for a record 29 years, 7 months, 21 days (4,531 episodes – David Letterman did a total of 6,028, counting his 1982-93 run at NBC in addition to his CBS tenure.)

While this day is celebrated on Johnny Carson’s birth date, it is intended to show appreciation to all Television talk show hosts, daytime and nighttime.

Celebrate today, by staying up all day and night and watch talk shows (until you pass out.)
