Bette Midler, the last scheduled guest, sang a touching impromptu duet with Johnny Carson, on the Tonight Show, on this date. (This was the apex of TV. It hasn’t gotten any better than this.)
This penultimate show was immediately recognized as a television classic, and Midler would win an Emmy Award for her role in it.
