'I wish Steve Allen and Johnny were still alive so they could see what we’re doing with the show and how we’re keeping it classy and glamorous, but we’re also being silly,' the father-of-one recently told New York Daily News - alluding to previous Tonight Show hosts Steve Allen and Jimmy Carson. 'Back then, they did sketches like having Steve Allen in a giant bowl pretending to be a banana split and getting chocolate syrup poured on him,' Jimmy said.
