Yes.

Also, now that Johnny Carson has been brought up, I bet he doesn't ring a bell with a growing segment of the population.  Probably approaching a majority, which is a bit frightening.

Keep in mind, a majority of Americans were 12 & under when he retired, so in about six years or so, the majority will have likely never been up late enough to regularly enjoy the Tonight Show. 

Hey @bikeman564™, where is Johnny Carson in your memory banks?

Front & center. I've seen Carson when he was on the tube. I currently watch him in reruns on the Antenna TV channel. I appreciate it more now though, and find it funnier :D

Come to think of it, we get old Carson reruns on our cable channels.  I have a few recorded like Mork & Mindy era Robin Williams and pre-Seinfeld Jerry.  It is neat because it is not just that one person, but often a few good guests.  The "current news" jokes in the monologue are interesting.
