One of my favorite moments in TV history: David Letterman tapes show in a hotel room, opens closet to reveal Hunter Thompson, Carly Simon and a podiatrist and then closes door.

43 Years Ago Tonight (February 1, 1982):

Late Night with David Letterman premieres on NBC in the 12:30 time slot following The Tonight Show, forever changing American late night broadcasting and making the wiseass, snarky comedy styling of Letterman both hip and very profitable.

'late night with david letterman' was the best thing on television but for saturday's snl and local wrestling. a thousand times funnier than the tonight show, for sure.

i've found youtube of all of them in chronological order.

i expect i will be occupied for a bit.

Watching the first #LateNight with #DavidLetterman episode and I have to say, it is amazingly just like it was for the next decades. Fully formed and not at all awkward. Crazy how they just knew what the show was and executed it from start to finish. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYuh...
