You can see Dave's muscle memory kick in as he walks out. His interactions with the band and the audience made me think he was about to start in with a monologue. Such an icon!

LOL I remember when Letterman was a new show, my buddies in college watched him every night, everybody cool watched Letterman. He did all these Klibanesque non sequitur jokes and skits like Super Dave and stuff. We loved it, he was a bit of a breath of fresh air for the kids that grew up with their parents watching Johnny. And he's still funny and having a good time with Colbert too, it's great to see these guys up there laughing and having a good time still.

@catflap001 6 месяцев назад

Me too! I'll be 63 in a few months. I watched Dave since his daytime morning show and throughout the 80s at night. I moved to Europe in 1990 and didn't get a chance to see him again except for a couple of years in the mid-90s when The Late Show was broadcast on TV. And then the internet came in the early 2000s and I could get my fix again, especially when RU-vid started showing clips.

Letterman was better than Carson. Was more of an innovator than Carson ever could hope to be. Carson was the third host of an established show while Letterman created TWO iconic shows that are still on the air.

@colwilliamnoydb4134 6 месяцев назад

I watched Mr. Letterman when I was in High School, back when he was with NBC and had all the people from his show doing parts like Biff and Chris Elliot and others. All the bits and humor he brought was amazing. As teenagers we loved his show. And as I grew older his show evolved as well. Spent 2 weeks in New York City and went to 2 taping's and it was great. His dedication to US Military was superb. He hosted Fleet Week, and all POW's and those who were awarded the Medal Of Honor. He never backed down from an interview, never soft balled it like some will do. His running a drive threw at Taco Bell, throwing footballs with Peyton Manning, it was all great. He broke the ground and barrier of Late Night hosting and performances. After Johnny Carson left, the break through for Comedy acts and Music was on Letterman's show. But you know you are big when tv news stations and radios stations all over America play The Top 10 Countdown every day fro his previous nights show. It was a staple of life back then. Thank you Mr. Letterman for giving me joy, happiness, sorrow and reflection from your many years entertaining and informing us.

From Larry "Bud" Melman, Chris Elliot as "The man under the stairs", stupid pet/human tricks, the slap heard around the world, to Will Lee supporting The Pinheads on bass in Back to the Future what an excellent show, cast, characters, and time to be alive.

Ray didn't like the title of show, too much attention on him, so he called Dave to ask him not to give the show that title. The first thing Dave said was, "How did you get my number?" Classic.
