David Letterman Bumps Regis Philbin Off Show, October 10, 1989

[@npxmnpxm]

Watching Regis catch a pass from Terry Bradshaw on a busy NYC street is a bit of TV history that I'll never forget. RIP.

[@terebellum1981]

Thank you for all the laughters, Regis. RIP.

If Letterman still had his show, there'd be a well deserved tribute to Regis Monday night.

[@BulldozerNDF]

If there were such a thing as a show for that matter

[@busterdog321]

A good sport for things like this is someone thats never forgotten

[@MichelleUS66]

I loved how Regis was always game to have Dave “humiliate” him. A total class act! ( Besides Regis, I also loved when Tony Randall would appear. And like Regis, he would go along with anything for a laugh. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5jFZZalrZh6gpI )

Regis is the BEST! I’m going to miss him so much 😔❤️.

I remember watching Regis during my youth. He was so genuinely funny. He always amazed me with his wit. And his warmth. He had such incredible chemistry with Kathy too. Loved that show.

[@NxDoyle]

A little late in finding out that Regis had left us. Dave was one of the first people who crossed my mind, because I know that Dave loved him very much. A lot of people loved Regis very much. RIP.

A Letterman Legend. I always thought Reeg was the male Betty White and he'd live forever. Rest well, Mr. Philbin ...

[@astinmartin413]

[@davemustaki134]

[@markjones952]

RIP Regis

[@Drew_D]

Well, you kind of knew something was up when Regis was at the bottom of the list... R.I.P. Regis! He was truly one of a kind!

[@Blueeyedsoul1986]

This was 7 days before the loma prieta earthquake

[@jameshudson169]

either penn or teller could go, he says!

[@krisscanlon4051]

I now believe this is a Joey Bishop shtick by insulting him ad nauseum

[@Carolina_Panthers145]

Sad 🙏🏿

[@mattshaffer8460]

Thanks for sharing these Don! He was always a good sport and obviously loved Dave.

[@johncritch6812]

He had so much energy they played off each other so well. RIP Mr. Philbin.

Regis was a class act

[@JakeMabe1]

Reeg was the man. He's gonna be missed.

[@jobeLewOOH]

Regis is the best ! ! ! thanks for posting - I will miss Regis and I was so lucky to meet him back in the late 80s when he came to LA to do a week of shows. RIP

[@jobeLewOOH]

I guess it was in the early 90s when the show came to LA, after Regis and Kathie Lee appeared on the cover of People Magazine in Sept 91. I remember I brought the magazine along with me and during a commercial break, Regis went to chat with the audience and we were seated in the second section behind the aisle behind the first eight rows. I called out to him and he said hello and I handed the magazine which he signed. I asked when he was going to come to San Diego to do some shows, he replied "we gotta do that" The shows in LA were shot in the same ABC studio as America's Funniest Home Videos with Bob Saget.

Reeg should have grabbed the stand with the "take one" in-house newsletters as he got on the elevator.

[@eightinches6094]

Regis was very cool.

[@magpatocx]

RIP Regis Philbin

[@optophobe]

Every time I see Regis on a clip I love him more. Smart, extremely witty and very funny. Definitely underrated as one of the most amazing people in the industry. Wish he could have lived for many more years.

[@timobrien8809]

Wow everybody looks so young, And I was only 22. Dave & Regis had an amazing bromance. Been a week already ?? We miss you Regis. 2020 really sucks !!

[@FiliTWG]

This will probably be in all of our recommended videos in 6 or 10 years

[@richardpoplis6777]

Heaven gained a great person.. The earth has lost a beautiful person.. so sorry to Joy and family .. and Kathy Lee on the loss of Regis... so sorry... for your loss

[@ThereIsNoLord]

Heaven's fake, buddy. But Regis made the best of the only world there really is: this one.

[@waltercannon4700]

Take it like a man Regis. 😆😆😆

[@SPTO]

LOL the way Reeg left the building had me crackin' up. Those two were so great together. Hope you saw the statement that Letterman put on Twitter a while ago as i'm writing this.

[@adams6438]

They were bestfriends, david adored that man and regis back to him.

[@thegreenbaron6439]

Regis is King

[@cameramanzoomit]
