Chain-smoking, laughing and easy-going host of "The Tomorrow Show" back in the day. His interview with Charles Manson was a classic..."Now, come on down off of the Space Shuttle, Charles! HAHAHAHAHA..." RIP, Tom, and thanks. WC1

Lotsa times I stayed up just to see his show. I loved Johnny Carson and crew, (Tommy Newsom was my favorite Tonight Show guy...more on him some other day) but I often leaned towards Dick Cavett's style back then, like I dig Nightline followed by Jimmy Kimmel now, then Conan O'Brien. Conan is a decent guitar player. But I'm derailing Tom Snyder's thread...he'd appreciate that...and yes, BP, Dan Aykroyd did the greatest Tom Snyder around...WC1

RIP Tom
You were very thought provoking..
The Charles M. interview will go down in Media history.
The late late deal was (is) good because of Tom Snyder..........
