On this day, January 29, 1982, the final episode of Tomorrow with Tom Snyder aired after a successful 10-season run. The late-night talk show, which premiered in 1973, became known for its intimate interviews and candid conversations with some of the most fascinating figures of the time.

Hosted by Tom Snyder, the show covered a wide range of topics, from politics and culture to entertainment and counterculture movements. Snyder’s unique interviewing style and deep voice made Tomorrow a standout in the late-night landscape.

The series was eventually replaced by Late Night with David Letterman, marking the beginning of a new era in late-night television.

Fun Fact: One of Snyder’s most memorable interviews was with John Lennon in 1975, one of the last televised interviews Lennon gave before his death in 1980.

Trivia Question: Which late-night host took over the time slot after Tomorrow with Tom Snyder ended its run?
