Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

This was a lovely moment in TV history. I loved how they combined the people together in weird ways– Dean Kamen and Kareem Abdul Jabar, Alan Alda and George Lucas - just great, and more than a little touching.

Oh, Mark Hamill and Henry Kissinger – inspired.

Funny that the SINGER, Toby Keith, was one of the only ones who didn't know how to sing along with this song!

<sad>Snif</sad>

What a great stunt to end on though. Ferguson also had his last show and he did the now standard thing of getting guests to take part in a bit shot over months as they were a guest anyway. To get all those people together for at a single moment in his studio, I bet most of them only got travel expenses too, impressive.

But yeah, an end to my current favorite show, only to be probably be replaced with a standard late night thing :-(((

I couldn't get it to play, but this works (for now anyways) if anyone else has a problem:

this is a real punch in the gut

Who was the Uniform?

I'm 99% certain that Mark Hamill was definitely not in this.

I'll take those odds - that's definitely he of the graying temples next to Kissinger.

Oh no - sorry, you are right. Bob Costas.
