Chris Elliott is a comic genius and an American treasure.

Damn right. His dad used to have a HILARIOUS dry humor comedy routine.

Agreed. Just imagine if he'd stayed longer with Dave, or even for most of the run.

That impersonation is spot on. The little things...the hands, the smile, the way he walks and turns around, the posture, the self-dismissive comments....it was just amazing.

@@davidziemann9653 I wish I could articulate without sounding like a dumb guy how LNwDL was a talk show but not ever “Genre: Talk Show.” It was Fernwood 2 Night masquerading as, I dunno, Johnny or Merv. And when it came to musical guests you would never see the likes of Tiny Tim.

Chris Elliott is hilarious in pretty much everything. Just saw him in a rerun of Everybody Loves Raymond (which was produced by Letterman's company), where he plays the weird brother-in-law Peter. Very funny

What took so long to do a Chris Elliott Appreciation Week on this channel? Such a comic genius!

@Genious. 8 месяцев назад

It probably took so long to pare down the hundreds of great appearances he made. My parents couldn't stand him for some reason until the Morton Downey Jr. bit - which thankfully was uploaded recently.

The genius of Chris is the ability to make people cringe, he’s a master in his craft 😂

Yes, but this was not a cringe performance. This was a master class on impressions, and he was SPOT on.

My god... I can't tell if that is Paul or not Paul or an amazing reproduction!.

@TiredOldDad1 8 месяцев назад

This was the screen door episode! I remember this. The quirky thing I loved about Letterman was the weird stuff he used to do. He was watching some home improvement show and was amazed on how simple it was to make screen doors, so he had the guy from the show come on and they made screen doors! I also loved this segment. He does a perfect Paul Schaefer😂

@larrydickman6016 7 месяцев назад

Never found late night shows very funny after Carson retired. They are too badly scripted. Nothing will ever top Carson and Tommy Newsom exchanges. Carson: "Tommy, do you go out and do clinics?" Newsom: "I go to clinics." Off the cuff, unscripted. Carson from 50 years ago puts everything from the 90's on, to shame.
