While working as a staff writer on The Red Skelton Show, Johnny Carson filled in as host when Skelton was injured during a show rehearsal. As a result of Carson’s performance, CBS created the primetime sketch program The Johnny Carson Show, a traditional potpourri of comedy, music, dance, skits and monologues. The series served as a precursor of what would come later for Carson, planting the seeds for sketches he would perfect on The Tonight Show with his Mighty Carson Art Players.
