[@Elkcib]

Thank you for the great memories Teri. RIP beautiful amazing lady.

[@robinmarshall5704]

One of Letterman's very best guests. Hands down.

[@dangerous8333]

Why?

[@robinmarshall5704]

It's best understood seen than my poor description, but the rapport between those two was so good. Her health started failing her in latter Letterman years, so she wasn't on as often anymore. But man, there's some choice Garr-Letterman stuff in the archives. Just KZbin "Don Giller!"@@dangerous8333

[@privatepenguin3137]

Teri was always one of my favorite guests and one of the biggest stars of the 80s. She was everywhere...and man did I have a crush on her! I hope she's doing well...I know she's had a real tough go of it with her health over the past decade or so.

[@unclefrank4274]

It's impossible to not love Teri Garr. Her Letterman appearances are so good

[@HH-vt8yk]

I love this woman . Funny , quick whited and beautiful with mountains of charisma.

[@ddburrows988]

Garr is a delight and I find myself returning to this clip every few years to watch her enchant David and Paul.

[@rockturtleneck]

Ms. Garr was the premier guest on Late Night. Her many appearances were appointment television.

[@johncornell3665]

What a sweetheart. It was interesting watching them interact with each other. Thanks Dave!

[@randyjames4713]

Always loved Tari Garr, I wish her well.

[@Frankincensedjb123]

Believe me, nobody cares about whether or not she can tell a joke. She is the most adorable, sexy, real actress you could find. She is a gem and a treasure, and she also get the blood pumping. Just ask the crowd. 🤣😍🥰

[@MrTroySinister]

"What great knockers"

[@celing99]

This right here is my personal favorite Letterman guest segment, ever. In the "Staff Favorite Moments" series, over and over they make a point to mention Hal's incredibly nimble directing and Paul's great sense of show/timing.... together with Dave's sardonic wit and Teri's winning adorable nature and chemistry, it just all fit together beautifully.

[@jeffj2495]

It really was a wonderful segment. I will miss Teri Garr. RIP gentle lady. (1944 - 2024)

[@mwalker3547]

Teri Garr "not being funny" is hilarious. She was such a beautiful and talented woman. RIP ♥♥

[@edwoll]

Rest in peace, Teri Garr. You were beautiful, humble, sweet, and talented.

[@barbarawillis5187]

David always seemed to brighten up when she was on his show. Rest in peace Teri.

[@anthonyf.9170]

Always loved her, may she rest in eternal peace. 🙏❤️

[@paulocuaresma9480]

This is like when David convincing her to take a shower 😂 Teri Garr guesting always entertaining 😊

[@paulocuaresma9480]

I see Teri Garr and David Letterman in notification I click.

[@baham9217]

They had such great chemistry together! You can actually see the ⚡ sparks ⚡ between them. And like others have said, everytime she was on, it was a gift for all of us ❤️

[@RobertJohnson-bj5lk]

I was always convinced that Letterman had a crush on Teri Garr.

[@maryperez1235]

Especially when she was married here. Dave always had a crush on her but she was involved w others

[@EdDunkle]

@@RobertJohnson-bj5lk I think pretty much every man on the planet had a crush on Teri Garr.

[@brianmoore5498]

Teri Garr is and always will be just delightful. I looked forward to Teri Garr on Letterman. The conversation could go anywhere and did and I hung on every word. Thanks

[@yusefbrown4187]

R. I. P. Miss Garr. You personified the girl next door that every guy wanted to bring home to his parents. I had a crush on her as a kid after seeing Mr. MOM( and I was a black kid from inner city Chicago) Such a timeless beauty

[@holton345]

I love Teri Garr. I can't believe she is 78 years old now! For me, she will forever be the early-twenties dingbat cutie Roberta Lincoln from "Assignment: Earth". She always makes me smile.

[@davidellis5141]

After Hours is an excellent film 🎥. Very underrated.

[@JoeKoOhNo]

She's fantastic in Young Frankenstein. Excellent flick

[@terrywright8731]

She was fabulous on Late Night.

[@duanedorow3981]

I mean... Teri Garr and Charles Grodin were foundational people for me, their playfulness with Dave and the show. Thanks for posting this.

[@amjh4lah809]

LOVE Teri Garr! ❤️

[@lynnturman8157]

One of the best things on TV in the 80s was when Terri Garr did Letterman. He really knew how to push her buttons.

[@jeshkam]

She did him? Lucky guy. 😂

[@timprescott4634]

Perhaps my favorite recurring guest. Cute, smart, funny, gorgeous, and a BRILLIANT actor.

[@senselessbabbledotcom]

Im smitten all over again!

[@kaspinet]

Still alive

[@jamesabrams6908]

Terri Garr was and still is a crush from my early adulthood. Just seeing this clip made me reminisce about how lovely she was/is.

[@thecharlesfoley]

Oh boy. I love Teri so much.

[@davewestner]

Love her. It's worth seeing all of her appearances on Letterman. There's quite a few, and they're all fantastic

[@johnwohara]

Such a delightful and gorgeous woman. I always watched her appearances in awe.

[@williampotter2098]

RIP Teri. You were special and brightened the earth.

[@KungEMuller]

Wow! Terri Garr and Dave are great together.

[@michaelunderwood6658]

I loved the chemistry between these two

[@DBurgg]

I'm relieved to know she is still among the living! My husband adored her. I think Dave did too.

[@kend1964]

😢

[@markwindow5865]

RIP Teri. A sad loss.

[@wjkathman]

The perfect Letterman guest. The way they playfully teased each other in all their interviews never failed to charm.

[@stephengamber7000]

"They care about their own humility - they would NEVER do the stuff you do" LOL

[@jeffj2495]

RIP Teri Garr (1944 - 2044), vivacious, gorgeous, talented, funny. We will miss you Teri.

[@rogerwilliams5382]

She was the complete package. I can't even begin to tell you how much I loved her. I had a huge crush on her as a young teenager in the 70s. She was so talented and the greatest Letterman guest ever in the 80s. I believed he really did love her deeply.

[@A_A_J.]

100 years old AND a time traveler? ;)

[@grouchosays]

@@rogerwilliams5382and I think she loved him based on the way she looked at him and was giddy.

[@TombCat]

Oh, I forgot how lovely, charming, mischievous and playful she was. Self deprecating, but really quite sure of her value. Sweet Teri. RIP. What a great, unique and memorable actress! We get to love you forever.❤ After Hours was a wonderful movie too. She's great in it.

[@janeltranmer2284]

There she is! Tada! Ms. Teri Garr! Hilarious. "You know, Johnny Carson likes me a lot ......but, I like you better." Well, well, well. Adorable.

[@Rob_Kates]

Take that, Johnny!

[@squinkque]

Teri Garr was the It Girl of the 80's. Man, did I love to watch her on Letterman.

[@DeathByOstrich-m5i]

imagine being at an upstate nightclub dive bar and seeing Teri Gar in her prime come in to do caberet

[@geniushugs]

The interviews on Letterman and her Lite-FM commercials are golden. Rest in peace, Ms. Garr.

[@qtrust]

Incredibly cute person. Perfect woman to have played Phoebe’s mother in F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

[@ThymeKeeper]

Oh, Teri, you are wonderful :). Whenever I heard her name in the opening I was instantly happy . Her final appearance on the Late Show from 2008 is one of the most poignant television segments I have ever seen.

[@cactusfacemcgillicuddy]

As a child of the 80s I only remember seeing her in Mr. Mom and a thriller/mystery with Paul Newman where she was very reserved and mostly scared the whole time, but I always thought she was super pretty and cute but it's funny seeing her here she is so adorable and bubbly. Her winsome personality really shines through. I'm interested in seeing her in more things now.

[@jimmyguitar2933]

Not Young Frankenstein?

[@cactusfacemcgillicuddy]

@@jimmyguitar2933 Oh great movie, and she looks FINE in that movie too, also very funny but I didn't see that until I was a bit older I think my late teens/early twenties

[@cactusfacemcgillicuddy]

@@jimmyguitar2933 by the way I looked it up and the movie I thought she was in, "Absence of Malice" (1981) was actually Melinda Dillon whoops

[@benbing3926]

Something about Teri Garr is just so wholesome and lovely. It's not just that she's beautiful, but she was a great guest because she has such an adorable personality, and a lot less fake-seeming than a lot of guests seem to have (nothing against them, I get it). I don't know, I just really like her. She's got a folksiness that fits so well for Letterman specifically. It's impossible not to fall in love.

[@paulypooper2]

I loved Terri Garr back in the day

[@bmla88]

As a young viewer on Letterman, always loved Terri

[@sammysouth8372]

With more Teri Garrs and David Lettermans this would be a much better world.

[@drewsmusical]

love teri garr and david letterman

[@wildoceanappaloosawomangay2535]

All the best movies were in the 70’s & 80’s Tootsie was the best perfection Terri Garr is missed 😔

[@yeslek]

Agree, I lovelove Tootsie 💞

[@RestorationbyRob]

After hours is a legendary movie

[@basicbrewing]

My heart always melts. ❤

[@MrPhotodoc]

The best Blonde American actress since Marilyn Monroe.

[@EdKazO-Vision]

You could always tell the time of year based on Dave’s eyebrows.

[@NagasakiBladers]

RIP - those plays she was doing were by the guy whose novella 'dream story' provided the basis for stanley kubrick's 'eyes wide shut'

[@stephengamber7000]

Glad she was on the planet the same time as me.

[@peterjdecourcy]

Loved Teri Garr, but I forgot about the Connie Chung appearances. Those were great too!

[@theresaguzman1745]

RIP beautiful funny lady❤❤❤

[@Zataronious]

Yes, Teri Garr was funny. I felt bad for her. I still remember that show Dave did in the offices back stage and tried to get Ter Garr to take a shower as "treating the guest to luxury". Probably one of the funniest shows, and it wasn't a full scale production.

[@squinkque]

She actually took the shower! Comedy gold!

[@matthewfarmer2520]

Rest in peace 🕊️ Teri Garr 😢

[@chadinmich1]

I was born in 71 so I'm 52 and when she was in a lot of movies I was just a little kid but I had the biggest crush on Teri Garr from the time I was 10 or 11 til I was 16-17

[@bluebear1985]

After seeing this, I honestly don't know if she's still alive or not. I do know she was forced to retire from acting in 2011 after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

[@mary5827]

Teri Garr ❤❤❤

[@howardoller443]

She is just delightful.

[@MiddleMalcolm]

RIP ❤ She was a special one.

[@mlrainesjr]

I have always thought how enjoyable it would be to sit across the table from her at dinner and have a conversation.

[@kowalski5599]

Teri Garr forever!

[@robbernath]

Teri was just a few months shy of 41 in this appearance and could've easily passed for being in her mid 30s. Very vivacious and charming.

[@You_Can_Do_If]

They are at the same level

[@dlanodrelda]

Such an expressive face. A treasure.

[@eezyclsmooth9035]

Very Charming and Likeable (Teri's not bad either). She lightens up every movie she appears in. I am going to have to watch "Miracles" (mentioned here) again.

[@TheArmchairrocker]

Is it me or does Dave look a bit like an Oompa Loompa here?

[@jkatsieris1]

Not just you

[@DavidB45Mustard]

Rest in Peace Teri Garr. Thanks for the decades of entertainment

[@Archerjr1]

The perfect guest. Always.

[@KickAssets]

Been in Japan for 24 years...wonderful country.

Love Teri, a favorite actress and guest of Letterman.

I would usually watch the monologue and go to bed.. unless Teri was the guest - those would be late nights , love her ❤

Phoebe's mom! (from Friends)

[@freeadrian1144]

That was inspired casting.

[@sharontaylor6688]

I’ve been a fan of hers since the Sonny & Cher show. She was great in there.

[@AdrianBoyko]

TIL, she was a dancer in six Elvis movies.

[@nickschultz3259]

and also on the TV show Shindig and the excellent and related music movie T.A.M.I. Show

[@plaws0]

Don't make me rush to the news sites. My goodness, she's a delight.
