In 1984, Paar came out of retirement once again for the Museum of Broadcasting's "Tribute to Jack Paar", produced by Kevin Doherty, making two live appearances in New York. This led to his 1986 NBC special "Jack Paar Comes Home". The following year, a second special, "Jack Paar Is Alive and Well", was broadcast by the network. Both were largely made up of black-and-white kinescoped clips used at the tribute from "Tonight" and from Paar's primetime program, to which he maintained the copyright. Although most of Paar's "Tonight Shows" were taped (in color from 1960), only a few moments are known to exist in this format.
