Star Quality

Here’s, Johnny..

Johnny Carson has died.

Did you notice that this most famous of teevee men didn’t go out hawking any particular political philosophy, denture cleanser, or other feel good issue of the day?

Johnny Carson stepped away from the Tonight Show and lived the remainder of his life the way he saw fit.

“Johnny Carson, King of Late Night, Dies"

"I have an ego like anybody else,” Carson told The Washington Post, “but I don’t need to be stoked by going before the public all the time."

The “King of Late Night,” indeed.
