SaysWho? Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Holy shit, I didn't realize it had been on for 17 years. Quote It’s the last call for Last Call with Carson Daly. The late-night program will wrap its 17-year run on NBC with star Daly stepping away to concentrate on his duties as host of the Orange Room on Today, host and producer on The Voice and to spend more time with his family, according to the network. He also is working on projects with NBCU’s The Golf Channel. I wanna know who's followed the show for all 17 years, let alone 1, and eagerly anticipated each episode.

I recognize the name from MTV in 80s or 90s but I have no clue what the heck you're talking about, so I guess I'm not all that upset that's ending, lol.

Guest Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I can't believe this is still on. A former IGN poster and friend of mine worked on the show as an intern when he was in college. He said Carson was a nice guy, so congrats to a nice guy on a long run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I saw this on TV a number of years ago and was shocked it was still on, they had cut it to 30 minutes and it was barely even a talk show anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chairslinger Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I was going to say that I didn't know anything about the show, but then I remembered that it played a part in the pilot for My Name is Earl. So that's cool, at least But other than that, I would be hard pressed to differentiate between Daly, Kimmel, and Fallon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercury33 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I actually went to taping 16 years ago because a friend’s brothers band was playing. It was....not a good show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Towards the end it was like a half hour show with him doing a 1 on 1 interview and then a band would play, it wasn’t live or for an audience. Back in the day it was like a regular late night show with an audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I honestly thought that maybe MTV gave him a lifetime contract during the height of TRL. After the collapse of TRL, the parent company needed to find him a job so it created a spot for him on NBC and hoped he would quit after being buried in a time slot no one watches. Unbeknownst to the parent company, Carson would ride it out for 17 years turning the parents company disgust into admiration and eventually rewarding him with a spot on the Today show. #Carsonfanfiction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only there were no seats for the audience, you just stood there. And Ice Cube was the guest. Carson came out before the show to warm us up I guess, and he said that if we didn't laugh at Ice Cubes jokes he might kill us. He said it in a joking manner but no one laughed and just stood there staring at him. It was honestly one of the most awkward hours of my life. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
