Props to Hugh Downs for pronouncing "long-lived" properly.

Jack Paar really began the talk show format.  Steve Allen's show was different. Paar said (on Carson's show) that he could not do what Johnny did, that Johnny was great at what he did.  However, Paar was the trailblazer, stood up to the television brass.....and was the person I'd rather talk to over dinner, or have as a friend or neighbor. (I'm a big Carson fan btw...)

It was once said there were two periods in television history: pre-Paar and sub-Paar. In many ways that is very true.

Aside from enjoying this doc on Jack Paar, I have learned that corporate power regards itself as omnipotent and I have learned that they are not....

I've been looking for this for a long, long time. Thank you for uploading it. I watched it when it originally aired on PBS and thought it was great!

Thank you for posting this.  I'm a fan of early television history, and Jack Parr was of the trailblazers.  He was a true original.
