DISCLAIMER:
Unfortunately, in the early years of The Tonight Show, several episodes were erased. So if you are searching for a guest appearance that you are certain existed and it is not coming up in the search, you're not losing your mind. Most likely the footage no longer exists.

BONUS FEATURE:
When you find the guest and date you are looking for, if you click on the air date, a list of the other guest appearances from that show appear. How's that for service!
