Conan’s Ed McMahon Tribute
Conan O’Brien took a serious pause during the “Tonight Show” last night to honor the late Ed McMahon.
“Ed’s laugh was really the soundtrack to [the "Tonight Show"],” says O’Brien of the world-famous TV sidekick.
“For 30 years, Ed played his part perfectly – he played it with effortless joy,” says O’Brien. “And sitting alongside Johnny, Ed was in a double part of, what I think, is the most iconic two-shot in broadcasting history – there will never be anything like that again.”
Below, watch the current “Tonight” host present a clip reel of McMahon and Johnny Carson on their “Tonight Show.”
