Dave Had A Top Notch Summer | David Letterman

[@UniversalExports23]

It's been a painful drought without "The Barbara Gaines Show". Like a drink of fresh spring water! ❤

[@privatepenguin3137]

Great to see the Barbara Gaines Show make it's triumphant return!

[@leafbelly]

These videos are like comfort food. We know you don't have to do these, but some of us old-timers are very appreciative.

[@robertzimmer8311]

This guy Dave should have his own show.

[@Picklesnot-co3k]

Thinking about, maybe, a talk show? 😊

[@hoffbeliever1651]

Congratulations to Barbara's daughter Mary for winning an Emmy last week for being a producer on Dave's Netflix show

[@RonGerstein]

Who?

[@hoffbeliever1651]

@@RonGerstein Dave's long-time assistant Mary Barkley who frequently appears here on The Barbara Gaines Show and is often jokingly referred to as Barbara's daughter.

[@frangordon2790]

Thank goodness you’re back! I have missed you all so much. I was worried you wouldn’t come back. Please don’t ever stop doing the Barbara Gaines Show. You’re the best thing on KZbin ❤❤❤

[@HettiedeKorteDiplomaat]

I think Dave is at his happiest now.❤ I really like Barbara. I love these talks.

[@christinacampbell5952]

I'm So happy to see Dave! Tell him I Love him ❤

[@petterw5318]

"Your imaginary friend?". We learned from these videos that in order to work for Dave for 30+ years you really need a savage sense of humour.

[@ThePhilmaywalt]

Dave, you telegraphed "many things are with the wrist....." Magnificent seeing all of you together!!

[@MrStuNYC56]

Welcome back Dave & Barbara!

[@ginaheller333]

Glad The Barbara Gains show is back!

[@dukeallen432]

Dave’s looking great.

[@johncornell3665]

So glad to see you folks back. And the special guest, Bill. Glad you all had a great summer!

[@pollinatorsband]

What a busy Summer for a lot of us! Glad at some of the developments. Love you mentioning how you are often asked to leave because you’re too old! Can’t wait for that myself…

[@michaeldonnelly7217]

Absolutey died at, "Could be? Many things are."

[@KungEMuller]

Now, this has to be on TV. This is pure entertainment.

[@Norvo82]

It's all in the wrist. - Could be. Many things are! God bless, not ashamed to admit I'd be lost in this life without the fount of knowledge and trenchant insights that is The Barbara Gaines Show.

[@GardenGirlD76]

So good to see you all!!! and yes you started with Rupert, the lady and the pepper mill was dangerous. ❤

[@rocketreindeer]

I remember Rupert almost getting a beating by those two thug businesswomen gals during that waiter gig. "Who are you, the Queen of England?"

[@angelwalker979]

Love you Dave!❤️

[@MsTuberz]

Barbara Gaines makes me smile.

[@ajn465]

And occasional taste of Letterman humor after all these years is always welcome.

[@janeltranmer2284]

I am so happy to see you back, I am not going to give Barbara a hard time about her annual extended summer cavorting with the Kardashians. What a treat to have writer Bill Scheft on the show! Wow! I love you unconditionally, Dave. Awkward, but true. On that topic, not less Dave, more Dave. Can we return to the twice a day line up? Pleeeaaasssee.

[@michaelmurphy2976]

Welcome back and I’m glad to see yall having fun!

[@Jezza819]

So glad The Barbara Gaines Show is back from summer vacation.

[@careymuseiii3523]

Barbara; Thanks for paying me all summer. Dave: Wait, What? Love it! Welcome Back, Barbara! I still miss Late Night & Late Show with Dave!

[@catherinegigliotti1368]

Miss you, Barbara. I'm glad you're back.

[@brianmoore5498]

fabulous... my fingers were crossed that the barbara gaines show would get picked up for another year

[@AugustusRex-nk8ze]

Dave went from funny looking to well dressed and elegant to funny looking again.

[@ds9908]

Thank god. Barbara is back.

[@firemedic6509]

Bill Scheft was a funny stand up comedian back in the day.

[@TheTRUANTSlive]

Thanks for remembering!!!!!

[@josephtwohig3438]

been looking for you guys, glad you're back

[@Notimp0rtant523]

Hope Dave’s doing alright. I’m glad we get to keep having these conversations. I was born in 1992, by five years old I was watching The Late Show (I know, bad kid). So to say Dave’s been with me my whole life is not an exaggeration

[@fasteddie9529]

This beats ANY of the current late night shows by far!

[@RalphOnofrio]

At least we get a mini Letterman show......Miss Dave on TV......Dave and Paul should do a Saturday Night Live hosting...

[@SturringThePot]

This channel, and the content accumulated here, may be the best use of the KZbin format...maybe even the Internet in general

[@barbpaisley5948]

I so enjoy watching these!

[@j.frankparnell.radiation]

Doug is awesome. We need more Doug.

[@candacepeterson8932]

David!!! You hog all the conversation!!!!!

[@ThymeKeeper]

Great Phil Regan ref :D. Phil had a good career with the Tigers, Dodgers, Cubs, and White Sox. He was part of a new wave of great closers in the 60's. He was a quality pitching coach in the 80's and 90's and even came back as late as 2019 as an interim coach with the Mets when Dave Eiland was fired.

[@LNNostalgia]

When did closer become more mainstream in baseball you think like at around the time of goose or quisenberry?

[@i.p.knightly149]

These videos are highly entertaining... and informative.

[@TheTRUANTSlive]

@@LNNostalgia This is Bill Scheft. I would say absolutely Goose and Quiz was when all teams adopted a ninth inning guy (although they went multiple innings).

[@LNNostalgia]

@@TheTRUANTSlive Yeah and when Eckersley won an MVP that did a lot for the "closer" image.

[@LNNostalgia]

@@TheTRUANTSlive Wait is this actually Bill Scheft that's so cool you were so good at making Dave's monologue jokes so memorable. Did you write "It's beginning to look like I'm not gonna get the tonight show" for his final monologue? That's one of my favorites. I love Dave's monologue style with your jokes because the synergy he has with Paul for comedic timing accompanied by music is so unique and great.

[@UniversalExports23]

Really cool that Barbara Gaines spent her Summer experimenting with time travel and managed to bring back an old 1860's gold prospector. 😂

[@janetglover999]

😂

[@michaelsullivan1262]

Ahh, another element of Dave’s fam. No daughter Mary, but son, Bill! 👑👑👑👑

[@jimmyjames2022]

Nothing like fly fishing for trout in a burbling stream in a thick forest. My Dad taught me, but then suddenly life interrupted me for 60 years.

[@flowerlandfilms]

Hi special guest Bill Scheft!

[@YouHaveReachedBob]

Rupert Gee actually did (unknowingly) tease a gang member in a segment once. :O

[@NoEl-en3uc]

Missed you guys!!!

[@scottmansfield4038]

One can never have enough Dave. I played the Paul drinking game in 80s, every time Dave said Paul everyone had to take a shot. Those day's are a little blurry.😏

[@TheMattsterling]

Welcome back gang! This episode was slightly confusing as Dave's new Worldwide Pants Letterman jacket captured most of the visual attention. I think you should get Bill Scheff to tease members of 60 Minutes. He used to do stunt work for Morley Safer if memory serves.

[@paulmarglin6286]

Great show !!!

[@mikegreenguitar]

Looks like they crossbreed trout and piranhas in Montana

[@CONNIECOLVIN-wg8bq]

I saw him 11 times at NBC. Even the 10th anni at Radio City Music Hall.

[@KentAJDK]

The return of the Barbara Gains show, fet. Bill Scheft, speciel guest David Letterman. ... When I save that, it was my sure first pick on todays watchlist here on KZbin. Good entertainment. Keep it up Barbara. You got a great thing going 😊 And so nice of you to let Letterman make good time of his retirement. His is ok, most of the time. 😊

[@renedupont6116]

"until that thing in a convenience store..." 😁

[@gongqi67]

Top Notch is fun to watch. Their success is mind boggling... barkling.... boggling.... barkling....boggling.... barkling.... I should be so lucky...

[@gbmoves7902]

Assignment?? Please bring back Mary she and Barbara work so well together.

[@JackSilbert]

Welcome back!!!

[@Stuie299]

I know it's the Barbra Gaines Show, but I'm so disappointed there's no Mary Barclay. Her silent almost forced presences really adds to the whole "awkward visit with your parents" vibes the show normally has.

[@rocketreindeer]

😂HA HA! I laughed out loud reading that.

[@BearbearbearbearbearbearRarrrr]

The top notch idiots shout out is pretty clutch.

[@CarolynPetitGames]

Another great episode of the Barbara Gaines show, though I once again feel like that Dave guy maybe took up a bit too much of the spotlight.

[@deborahs.9389]

Yea!🎣

[@evenflowsteven]

Barkley, Berkeley. Oprah, Uma.

[@allanjacquadro870]

What took you so long?! Glad you’re back.

[@sveerdlov1917]

Hurrah! Barbara is back.

[@Ambot51]

Ooo. Handheld (with a gimbal?). "Edgy."

[@nimbydimby]

I wanted to ask Barbara how she felt when Dave was pinching and touching her back during many of the What's the Weather segments. Thanks.

[@mactheknife7049]

What season is that jacket from? That thing is bee-yooo-tee-ful.

[@thelettermanpodcast]

2000, and sure is!

[@davidmoore664]

where do I purchase WWP Letter Jacket?

[@eatonuter7113]

Ebay, but it'll cost you. The last listing I saw for a WWP Letter Jacket was around $300.

[@eatonuter7113]

Ebay, but it'll cost you. The last listing I saw for a WWP Letter Jacket was around $300.

[@thelettermanpodcast]

They are still available sometimes on the EBay. The only way to have been given one was to be part of the show, or a friend of the show.

[@TheSteveBoyd]

Thank you, Dave, for sticking by the president. Apparently you and I were the only ones...

[@lat1502]

Is it my turn? . . . God, I miss Dave

[@gubbeyrecords8178]

[@thenostalgicpodblast]

Hi, fellas!

[@BobMacNeal]

Sending Mary on assignment is a buzz kill.

[@RonGerstein]

She was with Dave when he was on jury duty but was kicked off.

[@c.s.mcleod7383]

Dave...Dave...Dave...I'm thinking you went fly fishing with Thomas McGuane in Montana.

So happy to see the Barbara Gaines Show back again. Only criticism, the bearded guy sure does talk a lot 🤷‍♀️😆

Mr Letterman, still have the baseball cards I made of you and Johnny?

[@RonGerstein]

No

[@oddjoe1304]

When was Dave on the Bob and Tom show?

[@ryanbanish4240]

Good show. But I can use a little less of the talkative guy with the beard and a lot more of the fabulous Barbara Gaines. And the poor guy on the left in the blue blazer, told his wife and kids he was going to be on the Barbara Gaines show, and he doesn't even get to plug his new thing. Although I got to say the guy in the Letterman jacket, he's going places. ( The grocery store, the hardware store, the office, home...)

[@thelettermanpodcast]

It’s all in the wrist.

[@sesa2984]

I appreciate Dave getting to take some time off but really I don’t.

[@Tommyr]

I miss Mary.

[@kerryrobinson9947]

David is still gettin' it done.

[@kerryrobinson9947]

Oh yeah. You catch em you clean em. 🐟

[@dennisgallear409]

I rewatched the Netflix Letterman visits Ukraine. Blessings my friends.🙂

[@redbarn2544]

This show would be better with a studio audience. Just one of two people. Maybe three. Four tops. Reach out I'll be there.

[@dukeallen432]

Nah

[@LNNostalgia]

Listen I'm a big fan of the Barbara Gaines show but I don't know about this sidekick I keep seeing Dave? I don't want to cause a stir here but I'm concerned he's just not able to keep up with Barbara's quick-wittedness and I'm worried that we could see a dive in the ratings because of it.

[@thelettermanpodcast]

Barbara can carry that guy.

[@LNNostalgia]

@@thelettermanpodcast No yeah you're right she's a legend for a reason.

[@BoilingOther]

I can’t believe letterman is in his late 70s

[@renedupont6116]

right! looks like in his 80s

[@RonGerstein]

​@@renedupont6116Mr David Letterman was born in 1947.

I think the camera person has been hitting the bottle.

From the home office in New Haven, Connecticut. Top 10 signs you are MAGA 10. You have a GED 9. Algebra was a challenge in the 12th grade 8. You took PE all 4 years 7. You think geometry is looking at a map 6. You confuse your and you're 5. Apostrophes make you dizzy 4. You need to google the difference between principal and principle 3. You ask how to spell Bigly 2. You think their, there and they're are the same 1. You talk about Nucular war

bit closer to getting used to the beard

[@jarrodf_]

For the avoidance of doubt, here are the top 10 reasons Dave should host a weekly - live - Sunday night talk show: 10. Stupid pet tricks - before they were eaten by immigrants 9. Paul Shaffer spent all his Late Night money on 'Ed Sullivan marching powder' 8. With Biden out of the race, the world needs another old man on TV speaking incomprehensibly 7. Promise Conan O'Brien he can have the job after five years, then give the job to Jimmy Fallon 6. New York city tax credit for citizens born before the Boer War 5. We rarely get the chance to see Jimmy Kimmel cry on national TV 4. Break the professional glass ceiling for straight, white, male muti-millionaires 3. Dave's son, Harry, keeps getting repeated missed calls from Paul Shaffer 2. Late Night interns are hotter than the mechanics at Indy500 1. Now that he's retired from NBC, Dave finally has a chance at better ratings than Leno

[@nintendolunchbox]

Sigh. I cherish you Dave.

[@billw5189]

I think there is somewhat of a questionable undertone to those prank videos Dave may have missed

[@The-Secret-Door]

Barbara's got some outrageous takes on a lot of cultural and political issues - I take it she's been uncancelled at last.

[@nintendolunchbox]

Uma…. Oprah. Oprah … Uma.

[@lisasisk3713]

Love You Dave. Just saying, I think you would be more handsome, if your beard was tightly trimmed. Your Face and Head overall would be perportunate. Not that my opinion matters a hill of beans. So nice to see on youtube. youtube is better than TV. Well that's depending on whose channel you're watching. I hope your son Harry looks like you. Please don't be mad. Your Beautiful, however or whichever way makes YOU Happy. You are good for the soul; because you make us laugh, so much, in world where there's a lot pain.
