Daly’s ‘Last Call’ becomes a daily

? If Carson Daly seems to be everywhere all at once, that’s because he is.

He appears on the daily MTV show “Total Request Live” and on NBC’s late-night talk show “Last Call with Carson Daly” Mondays through Thursdays and, starting Sept. 6, Fridays as well. In addition to his television appearances, he has his own syndicated radio shows and a new record label distributed by Loud Records.

His NBC show was a way to branch out from his teen-centered career on MTV, but he still remains close to the network that gave him his start.

“I hopefully will be in business with them for a long, long, long time,” Daly says. “They really are kind of like my first family. It’s sort of an ever-evolving relationship.”

MTV has been more than generous about giving him time for other ventures, leaving some to speculate that the network is phasing him out. That’s not the case at all, Daly says.

“I’m not going anywhere from MTV,” he says. “I might not be on every single day like I’ve been for five years, 365 days a year, because it’s just impossible at this point.”

He describes the late-night talk show as “a little bit late night, a little bit in-depth, a little bit just goofy fun.”

His guests span a wide range of talent, including actors Gwyneth Paltrow, Anthony Hopkins and Rachel Griffiths; musicians Elton John, Snoop Dogg, Kid Rock; and political analysts George Stephanopoulos and Bill O’Reilly.

For the moment, Daly is happy with his time slot, but his eye is on the future.

“I’ve got a lot to learn, and hopefully I’ll be here for a long time,” he says. “If I can do this job better exponentially then maybe one day I might get a shot at the big time.”
