The Best Moments from the Larry King Live Finale
Tonight, Larry King hosted the final ever episode of Larry King Live with the help of Bill Maher, Ryan Seacrest, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Regis Philbin, Diane Sawyer, Brian Williams, Katie Couric, Barbara Walters, Bill Clinton, and more! The best moments, inside.
King hosted the final hour with Bill Maher and Ryan Seacrest, and the humorous chemistry between the three was immediately recognizable. Here's how things got started:

The hour's best—and most unpredictable—moment came during former president Bill Clinton's segment. Watch King mention the fact that they're both in the "Zipper Club"—which, apparently, is code for people who have had open heart surgery—and then have to clarify it later after the Suits thought viewers might mistake it for some sort of oral sex club:

Near the end of the hour, King was joined by his wife, Shawn, and sons, Chance and Cannon—and Cannon did a pretty damn good impersonation of Dad:

And finally, King's closing statement. This is how the final episode of Larry King Live ended:
