Carson Daly Defies Strike To Get Back On Air: "We Ran Out Of Repeats"

AP:

Carson Daly killed a few moments Monday night sharing snapshots of his "Last Call" staffers during their four-week hiatus.

He noted, gratefully, that the applause sign in the studio still worked after a month without use.

And he explained why NBC's "Last Call" became the first late-night show to return to the air with fresh episodes since the writer's strike began.

"We ran out of repeats," Daly cracked. "A month is a long time."

Daly doesn't support the writers which means he's toast in an industry that feeds off writers. No material - no show.

Scab.

Who the hell is Carson Daly?

[Ginzaman]

Either he has the world's most airtight contract with NBC. Or NBC is the most desperate network in the world....

Hey, Carson, you moron...running out of repeats is quite the point, isn't it now. Nothing like taking a little paid break while others risk it all to support the future of their brethren and families, then not lifting a finger for those who supported you...nay, lifted you...to the well-heeled position from which you now thumb your nose...

LOSER...

Carson Daly could quite possibly be the dumbest, most narcissistic, myopic man in show business.

What a stunning display of self-important hubris.

What a loser.
