- Johnny inquires about his Walk of Fame star, and looks at local news teasers. Suzanne Pleshette (Suzanne Pleshette Is Maggie Briggs (1984)); juggler Michael Davis performs; Ed Begley Jr. (St. Elsewhere (1982)).
- Larry Boyle, introduced from the audience, is a young actor and a volunteer with a local restoration committee who regularly polishes Johnny's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame; his name was drawn out of a hat from those of 18 applicants who requested Johnny's star. The comedy segment is teasers from local news broadcasts during ratings sweeps to attract viewers. Suzanne Pleshette talks about her new series "Maggie Briggs" and says she has never been in a real hit show of her own. She and Johnny also talk about the difficulties of getting started in show business, and she comments on her disinterest in fitness fads. Michael Davis does a comedy juggling routine. During the act he works his way up to juggling five balls, and finally three bowling balls. Ed Begley Jr. first talks about his father's acting career. He recalls that his father traveled with his Oscar so that fans could be photographed with it, but that the first time he was allowed to touch it himself, he dropped it at an airport and broke it. He also talks about his early career as a stand-up comedian - originally as a team with Michael Richards - and being arrested in Los Angeles when he wore a police uniform as part of the act, spending three days in county jail. He also mentions that Carson's producer Fred de Cordova gave him his first acting role on "My Three Sons". Finally he talks about his character on "St. Elsewhere", and a clip is shown; he contrasts his character's unhappy marriage with his own good one.—lenab9011
