I said a sidekick like Ed McMahon and that nowadays the bandleader is the sidekick. Higgins is the announcer and basically the equivalent of Paul Shaffer. These people actually have another role instead of a real 'sidekick' in the Ed McMahon sense. I guess I'll give you Richter, but didn't he leave and just come back as announcer? Even Letterman does some banter and bits with his announcer.
