I love that Ferguson who has carried on with the Late Late show so well placed the picture of Tom on the mantle on his new set, honoring the original host of the show. A long time fan of Tom's for his humor and how real he was on the air and that great laugh that would burst out of him. It turned out my best friend had been on with Tom on the old Tomorrow show as a sample of the unknown singer songwriters of the day. Tom was very gracious towards Danny and Danny never forgot it. Thanks Tom.
@fomomoto3: Snyder made it a point to befriend and encourage younger people in the industry. Ferguson acknowledged him many times. As did curmudgeon Letterman. Watch the vids where they guest on each other's shows for a display of mutual admiration that was rare for Dave. His company produced Tom's last major program, 'The Late Late Show'.
Tom Snyder, I wish you knew how very, very much I miss you. I never missed a show. You were the best there ever was. So honest. So unique. And like an old friend in my living room every night. God Bless your sweet soul.
I've become a big fan of his and I just can't get enough of him. His laugh and his voice were so intoxicating,as was his smile. Thank goodness for RUclips. His interview with Johnny Rotten was awesome. The one with KISS was the best.
*You gotta love Tom Snyder. he was one of kind for 3 full decades and more. great conversations. wonderful presence on the tube. very quick with this wit and conversations.*
Tom Snyder was a great host of The Late Late Show RIP and a good person and I like Tom Snyder's styler of presenting and him and Craig Ferguson are two of my favorite talk show host
Tom Snyder was the last of the conversationalists. You don't see that anymore. Jack Paar, Dick Cavett and Tom Snyder were it. I miss "The Tomorrow Show" and hate NBC for what they did to Snyder.
Jake Drew You picked my 3 favorites. They were all great at presenting intelligent talk shows. Yet, they were all different & did things in their own unique way. You might want to check out the new documentary "Best of Enemies" about the Buckley - Vidal debates. It's another reminder of when TV had a respect for it's audience.
Theo Lamp You know - "Best of Enemies" is playing in Minneapolis this week. I'll go check it out. I wish that you could see more of these shows by these guys. The tragedy is nothing really survives of Paar's "Tonight Show". I'm sure Snyder and Cavett were saved.
I think Charlie Rose deserves a fair shake, as does this presenter Craig Ferguson, albeit Craig had a much looser and comedic style. Take his interviews with Archbishop Desmund Tutu and Stephen Fry for instance. Craig did the show once interviewing Fry with no audience to the style of Snyder one night as a tribute of sorts to Tom and pulled it off.
That's show biz. NBC had every right to replace Tom with Dave. I always enjoyed Tom but Dave made that time period his own. Plus, Tom had his NBC talk show for almost nine years. Not bad!
25 years ago this past January 9th, The Late Late Show went on the air on CBS. And before Kilborn, Ferguson, and now Corden; there's was the legendary Tom Snyder. Nobody does great interviews than the late, great Tom Snyder. They're never be another broadcaster and interviewer than one and only TS. If you want to see great interviews done right... go to RUclips and type Tom Snyder (Tomorrow), (CNBC) and/or (Late Late Show). RIP Tom and Godspeed. and Happy 25th Anniversary to The Late Late Show. Because without Snyder, we wouldn't had Kilborn, Ferguson and Corden.
I always enjoyed his show(s) over the years. However, I am really enjoying so many great clips. Snyder had such a great laugh and you knew he was having a great time.
I watched Tom for many years. I remember being REALLY upset when I tuned in one night and someone else was in his time slot...David Letterman. I can remember hot summer nights during school vacation, when I'd stay up to 2:35, just to enjoy the unique atmosphere of the Tomorrow Show. I hope Tom is relaxing somewhere with an eternally full pitcher of colortinis, chatting with the exceptional people he encounters in the great beyond. Night, Tom. Rest in peace.
Sylvester "Pat" Weaver (Sigourney's father) created the "TODAY" show, the "TONIGHT" show, and, in the early '70's, the "TOMORROW" show, which put this man on the map. In the '70's and '80's, he was the perfect follow-up to Carson: Carson was The Party, Snyder was the After-Party. The genius of Snyder and his staff was that they realized that anyone that was up that late was kinda "fringe-y," and would be open to a lot of strange stuff, or in-depth stuff, or both. After Letterman replaced him on NBC in the after-Carson slot, he went to radio for some years, then went to one of the cable news channels in the early evening for few years... ...and then, after Letterman left NBC, having been passed over by that network to succeed Carson upon his retirement, he (interestingly, ironically, and generously) picked Snyder to follow him on CBS. Snyder did, genuinely, what Brian Lamb on C-SPAN does by design: Neither one assumes that the Viewer knows everything, or even anything, about the topic of discussion, and thus asks the question you would ask, if you were there. In Snyder's case, if it was a topic about which I knew something, his ignorance would make me want to scream; if it was a topic about which I had little or no knowledge, his questions would make me feel profoundly grateful. (Kudos to Craig Ferguson for recognizing his predecessor.)
Perhaps the greatest late night or any time at night, a great conversationalist. You always felt like he was talking just to you and he was funny but never silly. I loved Johnny but I really miss Tom.
I'm saddened that i did not know of Tom Snyder when he was around, as i was too young. I recently discovered Craig Ferguson, and was looking into the history of the show, and i've fallen for Tom Snyder's style of presenting. Not to say i don't like Craig, but i think i prefer Tom's more natural style of presenting a talk show. Luckily there are some examples of Tom's Late Late Show and Tomorrow Show episodes on RUclips, but not nearly enough. I don't think there will ever be another like Tom.
Really well said, not to mention Tom Snyder’s magnificent voice. I think all the late late show hosts were decent in their own ways but Snyder’s strength was his genuine communication skills. Snyder’s shows aged like fine wine. It’s comparable to a fireside chat with a good friend.
Tom and his Late Late Show got me through several years of traveling on the road for work and always seeming to be checking in to whatever room I had gotten in whatever town I’d ended up in around midnight. Always something enjoyable to watch before turning in for the night. Thanks Tom, wherever *you’ve* ended up my friend!
I was lucky enough to live in Philadelphia, so I had the chance to see Tom near his begining as a news anchor in the late 60's. As time went on, he only got better. His conversational style in an interview is amazing. So far, no one has been able to copy his ability to bring a guest into our livingroom.
tom was quirky eccentric goofy sometimes always loveable and real. had good chemistry with guests and loved watching him. his little tangents at the show opening . the network wanted someone hipper i guess. miss ya buddy!
When I was younger I thought he was boring 😢 stupid me… I would watch Conan’s show instead as a young teenager, but wow, today, I wish I could tell myself to grow up and watch it. Love watching the clips of him on RUclips, thankfully available on here. What an incredible interviewer. Very colloquial, very knowledgeable, and so easy going with an amazing sense of humour. And everyone seemed to just love him. So many repeat guests which is always a sign of a very good interviewer.
Such a great interviewer We lost a great man when Tom passed! As a young man I watched a lot of late night tv. But Toms take on it was such a great combination of serious topics and media fluff that made my feel smarter for watching.
Tom apparently was not good with names. Funniest interview in tv history: Tom Snyder interviewing Meat Loaf soon after Bat Out Of Hell came out. Only problem was, Snyder kept inadvertently calling him Meatball, and Loaf was not happy. Finally, Snyder just called him "Meat."
I enjoyed Tom a great deal, I feel he was underrated. Tom, I wish you had lived longer to enjoy your private life. Tom's flubs were part of your charm. Rest In Peace my TV friend and know you are missed.
Its always weird how you become fans of certain people , In my case KISS was the reason I followed Tom Snyder all those years . Kiss did a great interview with Tom in 1979 where Gene Simmons got showed up by a drunk Ace Frehley, and Tom found himelf laughing hystericaly with Ace making jokes about the KISS show and about Gene acting like " the " Mother Superior". Tom was Unique and the best al at once.
Back in 1965 when the FCC forced the ownership of KYW-TV to be returned to Philadelphia from Cleveland, Tom Snyder (and Mike Douglas) came along for the ride. He did the evening news and hosted a morning show called "Contact" that set the style for his later work. While he was ours for only five years, it was wonderful to watch as the whole country got to know his unique style. Thank you Tom.
People forget how really good Tom Snyder was. Tom Snyder was the one who started the whole late, late show format (12:30 am time slot) going back to his NBC years. If it wasn't for Tom Snyder, there wouldn't be a David Letterman, Conan O'Brien, Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers for NBC. In the CBS era, there wouldn't be a Craig Kilborn, Craig Ferguson, and now James Corden. You can Tom Snyder deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as Johnny Carson and David Letterman. In terms of the 12:30:am time slot, the best hosts were (in this order) Snyder, Letterman, O'Brien, and Ferguson
Tom Snyder will forever live within my heart. Except for Letterman, all the rest you mentioned are/ were unwatchable. I admire Tom so much, I don't even liked their names mentioned with him. There's quality, and then there's that other stuff.
I'm Brazilian, I don't understand English very well, but even though I don't understand it very well, I start laughing when Tom starts to smile. It's impossible not to laugh when you hear his laugh. Greetings from Brazil! RIP Tom!!!
I remember the interview that Snyder did with Charles Manson, and it was hilarious. As I remember it Manson wasn't shackled and he was doing his normal unhinged bit in an attempt to intimidate Snyder, it didn't work. Snyder continued to puff on his cigarette and didn't flinch once. Contrast that with Geraldo Rivera. In that interview Manson was shackled but I remember Rivera looking very nervous and flinching several times. I gained new respect for Snyder when I saw that he couldn't be intimidated.
@ExodusPessoa I remember watching the Late show and usually skipped over Toms at the late hours! Then I accidently watched an episode with him and Tony Danza, I liked the questions and how he was towards the guests! I began watching him regularly after that!
I wonder if there will ever be another like him. Perhaps one day, probably years from now. I do like Greg Gutfeld because like Snyder he's not afraid to say what he thinks, and say it bluntly. He's no Tom Snyder, but I can see bits of Tom in him.
Great tribute for the greatest broadcaster of all time.......... Letterman's tribute to Sunder was a huge disappointment.....he didn't praise him at all....🤔
I think his show would have done better with a wider lense that was used in the 70s. But the timing of the show was wrong in the 90s. With Dave being Whackey Still, Leno also whackey (copying Dave by the way). Conan as well who was doing innovative stuff. As a teen, seeing Snyder at this time was just "furghettaboutit".
But honestly, TS was not a great tv personality. He come across as self-absorbed and also I think he couldnt take a joke at his own expense. Which in my book are not features of a great tv-host. And yes, I compare with Conan, Letterman, Carson and also Colbert, Kimmel and others. Carson being the best, needless to say. I dont mention Fallon and Leno, because they are just annoying personalities. (Leno is/was a great standup, but a horrible late night host. And Fallon did well just in SNL).
Tom Snyder, You are greatly missed.
Yes he is

What a classy tribute to a great broadcaster. Good job, Craig Ferguson and crew. Miss you, Tom.
Amen. I just rediscovered the Late Late Show (among many others) during Covid. Tom is still greatly missed to this day, and will be for all days.

I've become a big fan of his and I just can't get enough of him. His laugh and his voice were so intoxicating,as was his smile. Thank goodness for RUclips.
His interview with Johnny Rotten was awesome. The one with KISS was the best.
His best was the 1975 Eastern Airlines crash.
They took the receipts, love it.
He was the nightcap of late-night. Late 70's after the bar closed he was the guy you wanted to see.
*You gotta love Tom Snyder. he was one of kind for 3 full decades and more. great conversations. wonderful presence on the tube. very quick with this wit and conversations.*
30 decades -- that's quite a run.

Tom had the most infectious laugh. Look up his interviews with Don Rickles. Absolute gold.
A college friend of mine said one of his favorite things to do was to get high and watch Tom Snyder's eyebrows go up and down.
Anybody remember Dan Akroyd's impression of Tom Snyder?
damn he was the best tom shanks lmao soo funny love him
These were honest flubs. He was not being funny on purpose.

Tom loved his dogs. He fed them and gave them water in their bowls.
When Tom held up the newspaper talking about the Oklahoma City bombing, and then 'New York' seeped from his mouth....creepy. o.o
The World Trade Center was attacked in 1993.
...and unfortunately, the Twin Towers WERE destroyed several years after Tom uttered those words. R.I.P. Tom Snyder -- you were the BEST!
Good night everybody.
Best interviews were with Sterling Hayden.
Yep loved those too!
Today's late night hosts can't hold a candle to guys like Snyder, Dick Cavett & Johnny Carson.
I didn't know that Tom Snyder hosted The Late Late Show. How long has the show been on the air?
Counting Tom Snyder's version: It's nearing 25 years. Snyder : 5 seasons. Kilborn: 5 seasons. Ferguson: 10 seasons and Corden will start 5 seasons this fall.
I wonder if there will ever be another like him. Perhaps one day, probably years from now. I do like Greg Gutfeld because like Snyder he's not afraid to say what he thinks, and say it bluntly. He's no Tom Snyder, but I can see bits of Tom in him.

he was the best no offense craig!
Cool, but Tom Snyder passed away on the 29th of July in 2007.
