Tonight is Larry King’s last show on CNN, which did this retrospective from some key interviews on “Larry King Live” over his 25 years there. Personally, BoomTown likes when he forgets things, but the Marlon Brando smooch is still pretty good television.

He's Baaaaaack: Steve Case Reemerges at AOL

As BoomTown reported earlier today, AOL was abuzz with the rumors that former execs from the online service’s glory days, including still controversial former CEO Steve Case, might make an appearance at a huge staff pep rally called by its new CEO Tim Armstrong. And so Case did show up in front of a cheering crowd this morning, along with former AOL vice chairman Ted Leonsis.
