I'd guess, for ease of the stage hands who move the interview/desk set in and out... they'd only do that once per show (I know they di the musical segments before anything else for the same reason). And since it is in the background during the opening segment, I'd guess the open is shot after the monologue which follows the credits. -- Kevin M. (RPCV) -- TV or Not TV ....
