Late Night

"I’ve always had a good relationship with the hosts I’ve worked with in that I would tell them the truth, whether they liked it or not. That’s how I got the title of ‘host whisperer.' - Peter Lassally, Late Night Producer

Late Night describes series aired after 11 PM, that focus on current topics.  (For nonfiction series fitting this description, see News & Documentary.)
