I only ever saw his late 90s stuff but they put all the old stuff online. I also cant believe him and conan were going back and forth on each others shows so often. Terri Garr is great (you wanna take a shower?), just constant ball busting between the two. Eddie Murphy is the funnies and funnest dude ever. Night Light and his other sketches were fantastic.

and as for the savageness of this guy. There was this lady Joan Collins. She goes on the Letterman cbs show and Letterman decides to show her in a nude scene from a movie. Seemed pretty uncomfortable. Crowd goes wild, it was wonderful. So days or weeks go by and Joan goes on Conan. The two are having a boring conversation and HOLY SHIT David Letterman just walks in to Conans studio. Doesnt say a word to anyone and immediately starts harassing Joan over a newspaper article where she said she was mad. Then he just leaves. It was insane. I completely see now why people didnt like letterman, he was mean.

David letterman was an asshole and a creep. He assaulted Richard Simmons with a fire extinguisher on air which hurt his health. He put Jennifer Annistons hair in his mouth. He kept asking Lindsey Lohan about her arrest charges which made her cry on air. He also did the same to Paris hilton

Fuck that guy.

He was a savage in the early 90's as well, but his asshole humor was what made him so funny.

He was a very good interviewer when he wanted to be, but if he was trying to be serious and felt that the guest was being difficult (whether or not they actually were) he would transform into a massive dick.

If you cant see that Richard Simmons was in on the joke, this probably isnt the show for you. Its a work like wrestling.

also heres my favorite clip in years. I just cant believe nbc and cbs allowed this kind if cross promotion. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yrkPwfWbIrU&t=6s

I find this hard to believe as the public didn't even know about Richard being hospitalized for it until long afterwards when people started asking why he stopped being on the show. This is like saying that Harmony Korine being banned for the shit he did was somehow part of the work.

I think that's why household was a Letterman place.

My dad liked the chaotic energy.
