[C]ame the ill-fated, six-month, syndicated "The Dennis Miller Show," which wasn't even carried in his hometown -- his former employer KDKA, for one, instead aired "Inside Edition" at 11:30 p.m. weeknights. That was a trying period Leno's booking agents forced guests to steer clear of Miller's show, a situation that estranged the old friends for a time.
Miller appeared on Jay Leno February 13th, but his material was a rehash of his recent bits on Fox, so here are some excerpts from a January Bill O'Reilly show. Apparently the Jay Leno show doesn't rate new material.
In a strange way, Budd Friedman was a father figure to the Miller boys. Leno brought Dennis into Friedman's famed Improv on Hollywood's Melrose Avenue, and basically turned over the brothers to the club founder.
