Old, Old School David Letterman from his Morning show in 1980 |
|
Yes. David Letterman began as a morning talk show. I remember watching this as a kid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRoaG_AmqrI&playnext=1&list=PL1EB3C7851E9A2774&index=2

1. I loved watching his morning show. |
|
Back in those days I didn't start my shift until 11:00 AM, so I'd watch Dave while I was getting ready for work every morning. He was one of a kind for the daytime audience.

2. I loved those prank calls he would make to people. |
|
I also remember him interviewing audience members and one guy had a Stiff records/slogan tee shirt which made the air (If it ain't Stiff it ain't worth a f*ck). :rofl:

3. Boy oh boy....NBC's loss sure was CBS's gain... |
|
NBC is stuck with terminally unfunny and ego-centric leno and I never miss Dave when I happen to stay up late.
David Letterman has always be very fun...

4. CBS Didn't Even Program Late Night |
|
They gave that time back to their affiliates. David Letterman was like getting a ready made, instant show that CBS didn't have to pay a dime to develop.
This is why NBC tried to keep Letterman and Conan.

I watched that show and then would go for a run at noon, in the summer, in the humid heat of coastal VA
