Tonight Live with Steve Vizard

Many interesting guests, many different characters that simply wouldn't work on an American show.

While this was clearly a version of Tonight Live with David Letterman, Australians were already familiar with Mr Letterman and hand no difficulty, for four years, realising the differences.

The humour was very Australian, the content was for Australia and there is simply not enough of that.

One "cast member" that is missing from the list is Jack Van Degancamp - he was a camera man at the Seven Network and was a wonderful man.

Despite what some might think, talk shows are certainly not the high point in television entertainment. Talk shows are all about talking and can be quite unpredictable. But to last for four years, indicates a certain quality.
