Late Night is shorthand for several different things:
Christopher Nash "Chris" Elliott (born May 31, 1960) is an American actor, comedian, and writer. He is best known for his comedic sketches on Late Night with David Letterman, starring in the cult comedy series Get a Life on Fox TV and Eagleheart on Adult Swim, as well as his recurring roles as Peter MacDougall on Everybody Loves Raymond and as Mickey Aldrin on How I Met Your Mother. He has also starred in films such as Cabin Boy, There's Something About Mary, Scary Movie 2, and Groundhog Day. He is starring as Roland Schitt on CBC Television's Schitt's Creek.
Elliott was born in New York City, and is the youngest of five children of Lee (née Peppers), a model and TV director, and Bob Elliott, who was part of the successful comedy team Bob and Ray. He has English and German ancestry. He grew up on the Upper East Side. He attended the National Theater Institute at the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center in the spring of 1979.
Elliott became known in the mid-late 1980s, when he was a writer and performer on Late Night with David Letterman, playing an assortment of recurring quirky, oddball characters. His characters on the show included:
Sandy Frank is an American television producer, distributor, and marketer of TV shows to US networks.
Frank started his career as a sales executive for Paramount Pictures, subsequently moving on to Guild Films, and NBC television. Later, he was Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales with the television division of the Wrather Corporation, which produced and distributed the Lassie and Lone Ranger TV programs.
In 1964, he opened his first company, Sandy Frank Program Sales Inc., and his first distribution successes were You Asked For It and Lassie (which he had acquired the rights for from the Wrather Corp.).
In 1976 Frank became the first television producer to have three prime-time, first-run syndicated TV shows on the air at the same time with The New Name that Tune, Face the Music, The New Treasure Hunt, and The Bobby Vinton Show. Frank's Company also sold the original Bill Cosby Show, The Dating Game, and Lee Mendelson's Superstar Specials.

7Brett5 returns for You Tube in search of some new shit to watch. Just who, or what, can provide that shit exactly? If the name Fred Olen Ray appears on any DVD you're about to buy think twice before following through with your purchase - no good will come of it. He is a terrible movie maker and a sexist pig to boot. According to folklore his best movie to date is supposedly Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers. If that's true then God help us. Don't forget to equip your head with a vice grip if you do happen to watch a Fred Olen Ray movie and keep turning that vice handle harder the more you indulge. As for Brinke Stevens - she's an under-rated artist who wasn't given a fair chance on the Hollywood scene. Honestly - I think she missed her boat. I guess you could say she was never given her BIG brea...
