Welcome to the Letterman KZbin 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. These highlights have been artisanly-produced, carefully-curated, and chosen completely at random by an old computer that used to pick numbers for the New York Lotto back in the 90’s.

[@Letterman]

No, she’s not dead

[@edl676]

🤣 my first thought!

[@Nothanku_]

You scared me

[@videoaccount4323]

Thank you for being on top of it this time. In the future please continue to indicate on upload if the celebrity is dead or not. I was very worried yesterday that all of Blink 182 had died at once.

[@hawkeye2880]

I swear, I actually checked to see if she was 😅

[@MedalionDS9]

Dammit, stop scaring us!

[@ninestories2]

Thank you for the bonus at the end! 🖤

[@robatsea2009]

Actually bought a few of her items from the Kmart in St. Thomas, USVI about a decade after this aired. Martha has always been a fun guest on talk shows, and this was no exception. Loved seeing the vintage ads!

[@trentpettit6336]

Are you a fan of CRUZAN rum? I know the Kmart in St Thomas sells it for great duty-free prices!

[@UberNeuman]

Martha was always a good guest - one of them that could give it back as much as it was given.

[@jfjoubertquebec]

I love Martha!

[@SorayaEsfandiary_]

The Kmart Martha Stewart products were well made, very high quality. When I got married, my mom bought me plates, sheets, and towels from Martha's line. That was more than 20 years ago and I'm still using them.

[@philly9375]

I do not remember that Marsha Warfield commercial. After writing that, I saw the air date of this show was 6/6/89; 2 months before turning 8. That makes sense. I do remember her time on Night Court. Much like Dave and Martha's conversation about Kmart and other many memorable things, it was a fun time to have grown up in the 1980s/1990s!

[@SHANECatLovinActivistHistorian]

rest in peace martha, you were the best

[@mosslyon]

Uh, she's not dead....

[@vmilu9653]

Martha changed a lot, became very sophisticated and distanced herself from the public. Turkey Hill's martha was sensational!

[@veejonesify]

She’s gorgeous.

[@srinath6247]

True

[@concernedcitizen1382]

Young

[@Mark-v7y8t]

She WAS gorgeous.

[@sgrafx]

RIP Martha.

[@jaywires717]

Back when Kmart was bigger than Wal-Mart.

[@catherinegigliotti1368]

Wow I now remember how young I once was.. thanks Dave

[@unistat1]

RIP Kmart

[@stacybearden]

RIP Martha Stuart

[@stevethomas2285]

She didn't die.

[@Jsach3]

Oops! Accidentally left in an NBC promo and a "The More You Know" bumper starting at 5:24. Love seeing the classic commercials, even if it's entirely unintentional.

[@Letterman]

🤔

[@UberNeuman]

Nobody, and I mean, nobody cuts Susan Lucci.

[@im_agine852]

Snoop dog knew what he was after

[@filippersson5256]

That was a good one! 💚💛🧡

[@markhayhurst1496]

fingers crossed !!! 🥰

[@lmsxxaaa]

I miss Kmart!

[@bravo3279]

Kmart was my fav store.

[@ccraisins2005]

I have a giant blue towel that I bought when I was 15 years old for gym class cause it was the biggest towel I could find in-store. That thing is still being used and still holding up. It's a tad thinner than it was back then but it's not unusable yet. I'm 38 now.

[@jaywilson7832]

Martha!

[@amichels]

Thank you for leaving in the ads

[@TheGreatAtario]

I had never heard of Martha Stewart prior to her name being on K-Mart merchandise

[@johnseroff7434]

please leave the ads in these from now on. Marsha Warfield!

[@andrewperez8831]

Rest in peace 😢

[@MothGirl007]

Very much alive.

[@TLllllll]

Rip Martha for real this time!!

[@virginiaboone9503]

Martha became better looking with age…still looks great!

[@zenseed75]

How often has Dave apologized to a guest? She demands respect. ❤️

[@jenniferlawrence9473]

David Letterman was such an A.H. to his guests. I never understood why he was so popular.

[@zenseed75]

@@jenniferlawrence9473 it's his sense of humor. Those that get it, get it.

[@garyda1]

Because he was funny.

[@ColtonBlumhagen]

RIP Martha

[@edwindevera7549]

Hey, I think I have all those CBS Masterworks CD'S. Popular at thrift stores.

[@bernlin2000]

Sooooo many copper pots! 😜

[@srinath6247]

The first self-made billionaire woman in America 🇺🇸 ❤❤

[@Lugano1788]

"The More You Know" I thought it was a segment.

[@tracy488]

Did you just watch the Netflix doc?

[@Kingjames111]

[@justinmcgonigle5587]

[@MrGuzmanra]

Jail bird

[@jackson5116]

She's a billionaire CEO thanks to Kmart.

[@DaneOrschlovsky]

Don't be a fool, stay in skool.

[@ArtificialBanana]

She and Hillary Clinton looked alike back then!

[@shellyt556]

Kinda. I think she looks more like Jenny Jones

[@vrvaughn]

K Mart went BK and Martha went to the big house… Soooooooo

[@mhowardhyde4768]

I sense she's trying to use her feminine guile on him, and he's receptive.

[@CthulhuInc]

she's as beautiful as a foot

[@michaelblanchette2787]

I love me some Martha!
