The language may strike you as quaint & flowery, the clothing comically lacey & ornate - but that’s how things were back in this colorful and now bygone era.

this is unironically the best thing i've ever see Letterman do. wow. a reminder that not everyone gets to see the art while it's in its prime

This skit makes the CBS show seem like a parallel universe! The "acting" in this has got to be the best DL has ever done too. 👍

@michaelmarcantel1744 Год назад

Extremely well written, extremely funny and some good acting by all involved. Back in a time when Letterman was the only one not afraid to make fun of the network they worked for on a regular basis. Cosby pulling the strings was very prescience of the staff. If only we had listened.

@pauld.172 Год назад

The actual CBS imitation of "The Cosy Show" that season which might have inspired this was "Charlie & Co." ABC had "The Insider" copy the look of "Miami Vice."

6:50 "Would you stop making fun of Bryant Gumbel?" 😂 This would have been at the height of their feud after Dave interrupted the Today special.

Perfectly executed.

I have bad news for you, Dave: M*A*S*H was a book before it was a movie.

By late 1985 T.J. Hooker had been cancelled by ABC and picked up for a fifth and final season on CBS late night, in Dave's future 11:30 time slot.

How ironic... I just watched HBO's "The Late Shift!" This easily could have been Dave's (and the writer/producer's) perception! Thank you, Dave and Barbara plus all staff who supported and brightened our lives with laughs.

@terilandi6269 Год назад

Thank you! I was trying to remember the title of it. I taped it to VHS but it’s in storage now. There was an hilarious film by Andrea Martin and Catherine O’Hara about PMS and a very funny film by Bette Midler too. Paul Shaffer and the band had a film too. Great idea.

@bossfan49 4 месяца назад

That was incredible. This was 1985.. the Cosby Show had only been on a year or so at this point. I wonder what CBS show he was talking about.

@seanwebb605 Год назад

Wait until he moves to CBS and learns about Les Moonves.

Dave never followed thru on his promise to stop making fun of Bryant Gumbel. Could this be the real reason he didnt get the Tonight Show? lol.

Friggin Dave was the best. Had great music as well. I’ll never forget Dave tellin Paul he thought Gary Moore had a magic guitar! he certainly was a magical musician!!! Only Dave had him on all night with the band!

Dave was so funny, especially in the early years at NBC. He was unlike anything that came before him. Whether he was interviewing the biggest stars of the time, or dropping surgical gloves filled with butterscotch pudding off of a fifty foot tower, Dave was just different.

@bossfan49 4 месяца назад

The biggest stars of the time.... and then the 2nd guest was someone you never heard of... and may never see again! Whatever he thought could make 10 minutes of memorable television.

Dave is a rich elite now who can afford to be an uber lefty. Most of the middle class cannot. Having said that, Dave has made me laugh more than any other human on earth, and I miss the show.

@daveg6839 Год назад

He doesn't like Trump - how does that make him an "uber" lefty? The majority of voters in two elections voted for his opponent. I'm guessing a few of them were in the middle class.
