Strange, considering how much I love the Tonight Show!<BR/><BR/>Sounds like you had fun.

I love the Cruise stuff, that is really funny. Lifts, pfft, scientologists can change their height at will. He could be 8 feet tall, but that is too egotistical.Gellmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07819780003574759214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7729460299643993554.post-75560622533087848022008-12-12T08:17:00.000-08:002008-12-12T08:17:00.000-08:00I just started to watch the show from last night. ...I just started to watch the show from last night. <BR/><BR/>Couple things I noticed - I think they "sweeten" the audience reaction to the jokes. It's a tactic used in Wrestling all the time, they add fake laughter to the real laughter to make it sound better. I noticed several times that jokes I recalled as being kind of flat got better reactions as aired. <BR/><BR/>I know how they make the studio look huge now: they shoot certain shots from very high angles from the very back rows, and the optical illusion makes it look bigger. <BR/><BR/>Chris - Glad you found the blog. Conventions can be great places to meet and mingle with celebs without feeling weird. IN fact most of the "celebs" that I've met are at cons, because for some reason I don't feel bad about talking to them when they're at a booth getting paid to mingle with the people. <BR/><BR/>The San Diego Comic Con used to be a great place to meet B-List actors and other minor celebrities, though it's grown too big in the last 10 years. <BR/><BR/>But here's the really cool thing, if you, Mark and the kids do come visit us for any length of time, we can probably get tickets to the show, or the new show after next year. Unfortunately no children are allowed at the tapings, so we'd have to get baby-sitters.<BR/><BR/>It's funny too, Lani said "I can't imagine who would actually want to go to the Tonight Show" on the way home, to which both Mel and I said "Oh, I think there's a TON of people who would love to go." She underestimates because she's jaded from working there.William Noetlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18034490187710188330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7729460299643993554.post-65394341132216427882008-12-12T07:30:00.000-08:002008-12-12T07:30:00.000-08:00Sounds like an incredible experience.
