  • What You Missed Last Night: Carl Reiner auditions for Snoop Dogg

    12/10/09 I was going to post this interview with Carl Reiner that Conan O'Brien did on The Tonight Show last night anyway, but it's an added bonus that the clip also includes Snoop Dogg, who listens to Reiner auditioning to sing on one of his CDs. I never really thought I'd ever include the words "Carl Reiner" and "Snoop Dogg" in the same sentence.  |  TV Squad

    09/20/09 Garry Shandling drew heavily on his experiences guest-hosting The Tonight Show when he co-created and starred in The Larry Sanders Show, a brilliant deconstruction of show-business artifice and the late-night talk show that doubled as one of the most penetrating, darkly funny explorations of male neuroses and sexuality this side of Philip Roth. In a performance so perfect that it seemingly inhibited his ability to play any other character, Shandling takes on the role of a narcissistic talk-show host who relies on his hard-drinking bulldog of a producer (a gleefully profane Rip Torn) to protect him from a scary outside world.  |  The A.V.
