NBC have scheduled in some very old episodes of The Tonight Show With Jay Leno to show next week because of the ongoing US writers strike. All the shows next week are from the 1990s. Monday night’s show in the US was first broadcast on the 29th June 1992 and features appearances from Tom Hanks, Brian Ross and Delbert McClinton. Tuesday night’s show originally aired on the 16th December 1993 with guests Julia Roberts, Pierce Brosnan and Geechy Guy. Wednesday’s show first broadcast on the 26th January 2000 and features Matt Damon, Selma Blair and Third Eye Blind. Thursday’s programme comes from the 7th June 1995 with Jennifer Aniston (in her ‘Friends’ era), Peter Jacobsen, Anita Baker and James Ingram. The final show of the week on Friday first aired on the 13th April 1995 and the guests were Johnny Depp, David Hasselhoff (discussing Baywatch, no doubt) and George Wallace.

The other US chat shows will be airing some old reruns as well - but all of those first aired in 2007, so they aren’t that old. These reruns from the 1990s make a nice change - hopefully CNBC Europe will air them as normal on their channel for us British folk. Keep an eye on the CNBC page for The Tonight Show for upcoming schedules on there.

The writers of The Daily Show With Jon Stewart have been re-creating the programme out on the sidewalk in New York City in amongst the protest zone. Viacom bosses weren’t too pleased according to the Alternative Programming Department website. The actual show put on by the writers on the street was pretty clever though - a video of which is below.

David Letterman is to be interviewed for an upcoming special of The Howard Stern Show on Sirius radio. This is very rare - Dave rarely gives interviews and isn’t usually seen out and about on other shows other than the Late Show. Although, Dave has been a guest on The Oprah Winfrey Show this year, and has also dropped in on Regis Philbin on Live With Regis And Kelly following Regis’ recovery from heart bypass surgery (something Letterman went through himself a few years ago). The Howard Stern Show special will be a life story of Howard Stern’s career. The New York Post website says the first part of the special radio programme will air on the 17th December “on one of Stern’s two Sirius radio channels”. The New York Post reveals the radio special “is expected to feature interviews with a slew of Stern regulars and celebrity friends. Among them is Letterman, who, outside of his own show, rarely grants interviews”. Letterman used to be quite a regular guest on Howard’s various radio shows, and Stern has appeared on the Late Show many times in recent years.
