Only ONE thing could have made this release any more perfect!
Love the inclusion of the original national network commercials! You can select whether you want to see those, or have them automatically skipped. Nice! Such fun to see the old spots. Like a time machine. Great for context, history wise. Sadly, the LOCAL commercial break intervals are not included, which would have been terrific because the band used to play during that time to keep the audience entertained and the network would put that music on the line along with a slide, so local stations would have something to go to in case they had a failure of their local commercials. The Tonight Show Band was AWESOME and such a favorite of Johnny. It was a rare treat to attend a show in person, or even to watch a station that had trouble and therefore put the band back on during the local break interval. Perhaps the music was not included in this release due to issues with music rights, but it would have been so wonderful if it could have been. Perhaps they will someday do a release that features the music played during the local breaks! Wouldn't that be GREAT?!?!? Just like being in the audience!!!

An OK time capsule archive but not much more than that
A rather disappointing glimpse into the past, but nothing to get excited about. Carson was brilliantly mediocre, which endeared him to millions of Americans. Some of the guests were interesting and funny, but the Tonight show was meant to relax Americans at night and put them to sleep--and it did.

Just great laughs! Cynicism be damned!
Live Johnny and all the old stars. I miss this era of late night. Just funny. Not some 90 minute political propaganda every night. Wonderful!!!

No.1 talk show
Great to see the full episodes again! Not sure if the commercials added were the exact ones used, but they're pretty much made around the same time.

Except for the music substitutions, fantastic
Excellent quality except for a few instances where they didn't use the studio masters. Probably due to clearance problems, they substituted music for the bumpers. Don Rickles' theme was intact though!
