I'm with you on the CNBC/CBS shows. To me they were some of the best interview shows ever. The Tom from the 90's has little to do with the guy in the 70's smoking the heaters and acting like Dan Ackroyd. Those 90's shows were some of my favorite TV moments ever. Did anybody ever see the shows he did with George Carlin after Carlin's wife died? That was incredible, touching stuff. Am I the only person that is mad that all the wire obits make it sound like the colortini/simultini were parts of the Tomorrow show??? I think those obits were written by people that just saw Saturday Night Live takeoffs on TS. Dave, I did the same thing that you did and asked for an autographed 8x10. I did actually get one and it's a treasured possession. I must have hit TS on a good day. Thanks for mentioning Tom. I’m with you on the CNBC/CBS shows.

I used to watch him into the wee hours when my high school schedule had me going in at 11:00. I remember watching him with the Sex Pistols on-they being true to form punk wise-asses and Tom calling the then Johnny Rotten, "John" with cigarette in hand an his classic big grin. Tom was one of the great interviewers IMHO and it pleases me to know you were also an admirer of his. Here, here(lifts virtual glass to Tom).
