'Last Call with Carson Daly' Gets a New Producer

This story proves two things: one, that people still care enough about 'Last Call with Carson Daly' to get a new producer for it, and two, that 'Last Call with Carson Daly' is going to make new episodes again. The show is on hiatus right now because of the Olympics, but even before that, the show was in repeats for weeks. Plus it's on at 1:35 in the morning and kinda goes unnoticed. As a matter of fact, when there was talk that Leno would go back to 11:35 and Conan and Fallon would be pushed a little later, no one even considered Daly's fate.
But the show is getting a new producer! The Hollywood Reporter says that ex-'Daily Show' producer Stewart Bailey has been named to head the show.
I will give Daly some credit: he's not doing the typical studio late night talk show, with a monologue and the desk and the couch, instead going on location to various places for more casual interviews with actors and bands. Unfortunately the show really isn't worth staying up for (or recording). Maybe Bailey will try some new, interesting things.
