    Welcome to the Letterman CZcams Channel, home to all your favorite clips from Late Night and Late Show - as well as conversations with the writers, producers and performers who helped make it all happen. 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.

    Wait a minute. I always thought this guy was Harold Carpenter the head Larkin.

    I wish Richard Simmons knew how much he is still loved.

      I was in the audience one night when Richard was a guest. He took a polaroid with Letterman and then ran into the audience, to show us. Yes, I was frightened a bit.

      I agree, and this one is my personal fave. Hilarious. Amen to your Jay Thomas tribute. His show on Sirius/XM was the best thing on radio, year in, year out. Fortunately, there are full-show repeats of them available on CZcams now. I listen every night.

    My favorites was Dave Thomas & Darlene Love. I still watch both shows at Christmastime. It's just not the holiday without them.

    As a contractor I’ve often wondered about the marquee and how much it could support. Thanks Harold! I’ll add every year around Christmas I was the Darlene Love episodes. I really like how they got bigger and probably better. The first, military and the last ones, still bring me to tears

    The Barbara Gains show should talk to Dave about Richard Simmons. Richard needs to know that he is still loved. I always loved when Richard was on. It was like Big brother Dave and little brother Richard.

    Here's the amazing thing: When the Darlene Love segment came on, my body just immediately responded with chills. I wonder what the explanation for that could possibly be, and if anyone else felt that response.

    12:37 Mandela effect! I've had this clip in heavy rotation in my brain ever since it aired around 1999. I've never laughed so hard. Oddly, over the years I've mis-remembered Harold's line as "Mr. Letterman sends his regards." I actually think my version would have been funnier, and sound more mob-like, but hey, I'm just happy to see this again! Bless this channel!!

    I love how they gave space to all the working areas in the show. I cannot begin to imagine the complexity of being a carpenter, electrician, plumber, stagehand or any of all these important trades in such a show. Wonderful segments!
