I always loved the Opening when Dave was announced and Paul would jam like it was always the FIRST performance! Terrific! Thank-You for Sharing!

This was the best opening to Late Night. It captures the essence of New York the way it was.

Sonny's modesty makes him very likeable. Others could learn from this.

Nope, that's classic Letterman. He'd go for the laughs first and foremost, and the laughs don't come from getting mad. That just turns ppl off. He'd play the whole ridiculous thing up, add some facetious/sarcastic asides. And should there be a fire extinguisher around (or a hose, jello, booze), he might grab it and go for another laugh or two. See: Richard Simmons, or anyone cooking with booze or wine. He was even laughing and joking at the very end.

This era was the best Letterman did imho. When he was up, like he was here, there was nothing funnier on the air. But even when he was in a bit of a cranky mood, the show was still really funny, albeit in a bizarro-world kinda way. I was kinda worried that Dave was actually serious when he said to Lee Marek, "you're never coming back", but Lee continued making appearances thru the years. Woulda been pretty weak had Dave been serious anyway....the whole explosion incident woulda been fine had he remembered to put the hearing protection back on after he acted like a goofball.

@SEZWAH FWIW, I missed most of his CBS run because once he moved to CBS, I started working nights most of the time and was rarely home to see the show. And when I did see the show, it definitely didn't have the bite that the original Late Night had. I kinda faded away from Letterman due to both factors. So yeah, I would say I agree more or less. But I have recently watched some of the CBS stuff, and it was still pretty funny. Much funnier than I originally gave it credit. But it was definitely not the same show....lost a lot of the absurdist humor and went quite a bit more mainstream. Oh well. People change, things change. Glad we still have the old Late Night shows to watch on YT

@sezwah1414 I think the early years of the CBS show were great. I think what cracked him was falling behind Leno in the ratings and eventually losing all hope of winning the timeslot again as the years went on.

@jedijones 9 ай бұрын

He had Crispin Glover back, so he doesn't seem too particular. It seems the only guests he didn't bring back were the boring ones. I agree with you that Dave's peak years were the late '80s and early '90s. He was at his best when he was at his most confident. In his early years, he's still timid and tentative. And in his later years, after falling behind Leno in the ratings, he got too self-loathing. The years of becoming a phenomenon in Late Night and a household name and then winning the CBS show and beating Leno in the ratings for the first few years were when he was the most successful, happiest, most confident and most entertaining.
