Late Night with David Letterman (3/18/86)

[@davewestner]

The ending of the opening tune is friggin baller......even Paul was impressed with it

[@HardRockMiner]

Thank you for leaving the commercials in. I had forgotten these until I saw them again. :)

[@patton303]

Holy crap that intro. Nothing beat that dangerous four piece band. Monsters.

[@pika23]

Love the record segment! Reminds me of the early internet when they had the weird album covers

[@typorter-pp6lh]

I’m pretty sure Poncho the Parrot was a guest on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson and performed quite well.

[@ericthatsme]

Yes, he sang Bali Hai!

Interview with Morris was one of the most awkward things.

[@allendracabal0819]

Morris only got one of his five Oscar predictions correct: Sydney Pollack for Best Director. The categories he missed: Best Picture: Out of Africa Best Actor: William Hurt Best Actress: Geraldine Page Best Supporting Actress: Anjelica Huston

[@winonafrog]

Anjelica Huston? I thought for sure it would be Ohwogoh Maccabee for Color Purple!

[@robertgold3868]

But what won Best Animated Short? LOL!!!

[@allendracabal0819]

@@robertgold3868 Although Morris declined to make a prediction in that category, for the record, it was a film from the Netherlands called Anna & Bella.

[@ruthecker399]

love dave miss him

[@SnowdriftBoy]

6:28 “Shriners in an elevator” - I guess a young Norm MacDonald was watching this show..

[@willmarwick7858]

Mark Linn Baker ( Perfect Strangers) and Gordon Kaye(Allo allo) turn up in adverts

[@drjayteamk4531]

lol pontiac ad. i remember it and the actor from allo allo. he plays a french there too. he's a british actor Gorden Kaye

[@MB-dk3fm]

the ad at 47:20 is pure unfiltered vaporwave

[@untexan]

Oh my God imagine being high at like 1:15 in the morning and that commercial came on

[@zaddy49]

4:17 Paul giving the ol' 1 finger how do you do 😂

[@NelsonVlog66]

Paul Shaffer with some hair.

[@huflungdung8252]

What's the deal with these contras?

[@hicks727]

drinking a 40z bud in the parent's basement

[@mubd1234]

Interesting to see Dave do a plug for a product at around 25:25. I don't think I've ever seen him personally endorse a product like that.

[@ronflatter1235]

Clearly spliced in during post-production.

[@noirlitguy]

Curiously, Lavender Jane (Alix Dobkin) died just a few months ago...

[@lanceash]

Just looked it up and, Yes, the Elvis record is real.

[@apebitmusic83]

Omg that psychic. He really missed out on a career in entertainment

[@concepcionledezma5027]

This is when he was still good, and not an angry old man!

[@scottspy]

Morris's toupee is quite a vision! 🦱😳

[@ericthatsme]

Morris’ toupee looks like it came from Morris’s toupees!

[@thedot3814]

Saw this live channel & CBS at home.

Sorry if this is a bad place to post a question, but this is your most recent video and was hoping this'd catch your attention. On your video showing you your rowing machine generator: How did you construct it, and how might I be able to convert a rowing machine of my own into a generator?

Thank you so much!!!! I subbed to you by the way :)

I am old enough to remember this episode when it originally aired. The Psychic got one right.

[@apebitmusic83]

Dave didn’t seem to be in a great mood this show. Haha

[@ThanksgivingBrown]

hilarious commercials

[@apebitmusic83]

And not nearly as annoying as commercials these days!

[@ryanellis4474]

This was a weak episode on account of the bad guests. Every guest stunk. Letterman is a genius, though!

Don't you feel embarrassed while watching the commercials? That's the way rich people see civilians
