Tom Snyder’s Final Late Late Show – Farewell to CBS with Dennis Miller (1999)

On March 26, 1999, legendary broadcaster Tom Snyder signed off from The Late Late Show for the final time. In this heartfelt and humorous farewell episode, Snyder thanks the colleagues, friends, and audience who supported him throughout his decades-long career. Special guest Dennis Miller joins for an unfiltered conversation about television, comedy, career transitions, and the absurdities of show business.

From backstage stories about David Letterman’s generosity to Snyder’s candid “penalty box” truce with Larry King, this episode is filled with sharp wit, warmth, and television history. Snyder reflects on his years in broadcasting, the challenges of late-night TV, and the joy of connecting with a loyal 1:00 AM audience. The show closes with Peter Allen’s emotional performance of Once Before I Go, a fitting send-off for a broadcasting legend.
