Johnny did not have as much control over this prime-time series as he would later have on "WHO DO YOU TRUST?" and "THE TONIGHT SHOW". He later recalled, "There were too many cooks telling me what to do and how to do it...the {William Morris} agency {who put the show together} was putting people on without my knowledge- the scripts were being edited without telling me. I was sitting around like a dummy". That's one reason why Carson never had much of a chance to ad-lib freely, Jonathan...

Johnny was doing a Thursday night prime-time comedy/variety show for CBS [10-10:30pm(et)] during the 1955-'56 season (sponsored by General Foods' "Jell-O" and "Minute Rice"). This is the opening of one of those shows, from September 8, 1955 [Johnny and his wife were indeed on the cover of the September 3rd issue of TV GUIDE, at 2:40].

Now passing airplanes and helicopters disrupt my digital signal. They call this progress?

You can tell he had to hold back the sharp ad-libs due to the old standards on prime time. You can very easliy see the potential in him and the great things that were to come.
