'Late Night's' Carl 'Oldy' Olsen dies at 76

|

The year was 1994. A baseball strike had crippled the nation's sports fans. A fledgling ex-"Simpsons" writer was struggling to survive in David Letterman's old spot on NBC's "Late Night." And the small legion of Conan fans was introduced to the comic talents of William Preston, now known to millions of television viewers as Carl "Oldy" Olsen. Preston, who brought a Santa Claus beard and maniacal laugh to the role of Oldy Olsen, died Friday at the age of 76. Conan O'Brien's first years at "Late Night" were shaky, to say the least.
