Carson Daly, who recently landed a primetime NBC gig hosting the new reality series The Voice, has also secured his late-night job at the network. NBC has renewed late-night show Last Call with Carson Daly for the 2011-12 season, Last Call’s 11th. “Last Call is enjoying its best season yet and its ratings are up,” said NBC’s EVP late night Rick Ludwin. Last Call with Carson Daly is produced by Universal Media Studios. Stewart Bailey and Guy Oseary continue as executive producers.





Wait a sec, this show is still on the air? Can we please double check this?
You read my mind Anonymous. Thought the show went off the air when he was knocking boots with Tara Reid. Yes, that long ago!
jimmy kimmel? george lopez? carson daly? 96% of all reality shows? we are in the throes of the most mediocre entertainment phase in the history of hollywood. his pick up is no surprise.
hey! there’s nothing wrong with jimmy kimmel. his stuff on leno was the best, and his handsome men’s club skit was class, cleverly stitched together.
Thanks to Daly I discovered some pretty awesome music and restaurants. Dig the format of the show too.
Show is pathetic
Golfy – we sure are. My GOD. Kimmel is the worst. Now this bore. It all started with Jon Stewart. The bullet proof bore. Carson Daly is not a host. Just because he’s on TV doesn’t mean he’s real.
Think about that, Jack. But someone is making a good living off these bores.
Love Carson. Great guy. Humble. Talented. Great move. Congrats!
If only someone could erase this sad fool along with George Lopez from the late night TV lineup we would all be safe.
Thanks to NBC and Carson Daly, I’ve kicked my sleeping pill addiction.
Snores-ville, here I come!!!
“Last Call is enjoying its best season yet and its ratings are up,” said NBC’s EVP late night Rick Ludwin
Anotherwords, the ratings have gone from horrendous to abysmal…
Excellent work, Mr. Daly.
Is he blowing somebody or what?
Jimmy “‘Lame'” Kimmel and Carson “O’ Bore Me” Daly show, incontrovertibly, that there’s Affirmative Action for white people – something my fellow white folk (my friends, my family and strangers alike) never thought possible. They are both lackluster, sporadically humorous, un-telegenic, awkward and preening. Who would have thought these two would make Arsenio Hall (and his old variety TV show) look as polished as Johnny Carson? That’s how bad Kimmel and Daly both are …. because Arsenio, as the world knows, was just OK at best.
amazing…
I worked on his show when he was in NYC and it was without a doubt the worst-produced show EVER.
Idiot director, and a schmuck producer who sent more time cultivating his pathetic Don Johnson wanna-be stubble than caring a whit about how the audience experienced the show…
Carson sucks. He can’t do monologues and he can’t do interviews, which is why the format of his show changed to him doing something douchey and disinterestingly tossing to slickish roll-in packages of interesting stuff in Los Angeles which he wasn’t even there for the taping of. (I watched one thing to make sure I wasn’t on camera. His producers never put up the “by enter this area, you agree to…” signs.) He must have walked in on someone important blowing a goat party, because there’s no reason he should be in entertainment. He’s as interesting as a single ply of toilet paper. Shame NBC, there’s literally thousands of people on the stages of the places Carson’s producers highlight that would do a better job with that show than him. People with a sense of humor, a point of view (really Carson, you like EVERY kind of band and music) and most importantly TALENT. Whatever the voice is, have fun doing A season of it.
Holy cow Stephen you nailed it.
For about 10 years now networks have been too chicken shit to actually go out and find new, buzz-worthy talent. We agree, guys like Kimmel (never been easy to look at) and Carson (Zzzzz) WERE cool in the late 90’s/early 00’s, but they’re just not anymore. Not by a long shot. Kudos for NBC taking a chance on Fallon. He’s not my cup, but he’s actually got legit talent.
WHY THE DEATH GRIP ON DAY OLD BREAD, NETWORKS????
It’s no sin to hit the refresh button every decade, fellas. Maybe that 1:35 slot COULD be relevant, if you found the right guy/gal, instead of insisting on re-upping Snoozy Mcfaketeeth.
Wait, that’s still on?
This is great news for the 2 people who actually stay up and watch Carson Daly: Rick Ludwin and Carson Daly.
Actually “Last Call” has THREE viewers: Rick Ludwin, Carson Daly, and Carson Daly’s grandmother.
But to be fair to Grandma Daly, she thinks she’s actually watching reruns of “The Lawrence Welk Show”.
Zzzzzzzzzzzz…….
Most of the people posting here are complete idiots who have no idea what they are talking about. Is Carson Daly a big douche? Pretty much, I’ll give you that. But this show is on at 1:30AM! Give me a break! You probably aren’t going to find someone much better than Carson Daly who wants to do a talk show that late. It’s not like NBC is grooming him for anything better than this show. There is absolutely no talk of him ever taking over the 2 earlier slots in late night for NBC.
And if you are up at 1:30AM every night watching TV, then get a real job!
Carson’s show is the only place anymore where you can hear good music anymore from real bands. Yes, they repackaged the show..SO WHAT? The talk show format wasn’t working for him and he changed, yes, you’re absolutely right. It’s better now. It differentiates him from everyone else. And it’s a 1:35 show! It’s not like they’re dropping major coin on it!
Some people here really need to grow up.
most of these posters are envious and pathetic who have no idea what they’re talking about. you don’t know carson daly – and you have no impact, whatsover, on the entertainment industry. fools all of you.
I didn’t know Carson Daly’s Grandmother had access to the internet.
Hmmmm….
“most of these posters are envious and pathetic who have no idea what they’re talking about.”
Welcome to the internet.
WHY? NBC Cancels NBC or anything with black actors with the quickness, but keeps this BORE on. WHY?
