Letterman made no secret of his wish to host the Tonight Show once Carson retired; when NBC gave that job to Jay Leno in 1992, Letterman jumped to CBS and began the competing The Late Show with David Letterman. In January of 2000 Letterman missed five weeks of shows after undergoing quintuple bypass heart surgery.
