CBS – Last Call

“Last Call was a late night CBS comedy series executive produced by Brandon Tartakoff. It also was a first class train wreck.”

ln the fall of 1994, I got hired to produce for NPR Film Critic Elvis Mitchell. I knew we were doomed when Elvis and I, exploring our new offices on 54th St, found a small, odd oven down in the basement – I found out later the place used to be the ASPCA. We were understaffed and facing impossible egos, but Elvis and I had a lot of fun, and got into more than our share of trouble. Here are some of the pieces from the days I remembered to grab tapes.
