BobQuasit reviewed The Late Shift by Bill Carter
Engaging & entertaining with an abrupt end.
3 stars
I'd give this one 3.5 stars if half-stars were permitted. It was quite involving and well-researched; it gave me new insight into the war between David Letterman and Jay Leno to succeed Johnny Carson as host of the tonight show. But it cuts off abruptly, and at a point that's somewhat misleading. There's a sequel, apparently; I'll be looking it up.
