Scabby McScab

Carson "Scab" Daly "McScab" is about to defy writers strike.

Scabby is not the first talk-show host to go back into production. Ellen DeScabgeres, who is a member of the union, has continued taping her daytime syndicated talk show after shutting down the first day of the strike. But "Last Call" becomes the first to break ranks among the late-night shows, which all had chosen to air repeats rather than tape new shows without their striking writers.

Johnny Carson - no relation to this jackass, as it's his first name, not his last - broke the line in the '88 strike, but wrote his own gags. It's remembered as the time where there wasn't as much polish in his shoes. But that was Johnny Carson - not fuggin' Carson Scabby Daly. Who the hell is up at 12:30 Central to watch him!? Who cares? After a rerun of Leno and a rerun of Conan - does ANYONE watch this show? Maybe his mom - who tapes it on her soap tape - on VHS.

Perhaps they think this is their big chance to beat everyone back on the air. Like that time Krusty the Clown was broadcasting in the National Defense shed. Now's my chance for that 10 share! Good luck - if this Scab is writing anything - you're better off watching the Magic Bullet ad, (which I'm told is quality television!)
