‘Tomorrow’ host Snyder dies at 71
From CNN: ‘Tomorrow’ host Snyder dies at 71
(*sigh*) Snyder hosted the last true last-night “talk show” filled with intelligence and humor; his Late Late Show was him sitting with a guest, just talking. When Kilborn was getting ready to take over, Snyder in his top-of-the-show monolog referred to the show getting ready, “for comedy” with a snide and sarcastic turn.
I watched Tomorrow sitting on the floor in my parents’ house eating swiss cheese and chips, and I watched the Late Late Show lying on the floor of a room in the Hershey Medical Center. Some of us have missed you ever since you left, and always held a secret hope you’d come back in some form or another to save us from the childish “humor” painfully on display in late-late night from all three networks. Now there’s no hope at all for intellect to triumph over boorish toilet humor.
