I actually saw his first show when I was a kid. Hate to see him go. I also remember vaguely his short lived daytime talk show ..

I think I might DVR it. I was a big fan of Dave at NBC back at the old 12:30AM time slot.

a thread worth replying to.
I grew up (?) on Letterman. I started watching "Late Night.." sometime around '82 or '83, and while I can't say I've never missed a show, I can say I've watched him waaaaay more than Leno. I've got last nights' episode recorded, and tonight's set to record. I may watch it in real time anyway.
Then, I may go find an abandoned five-story tower to drop random shit off of.

One of my fondest memories was when Dave would use the hydraulic press to crush things. I remember a bowling ball breaking into 2 even pieces instead of being crushed.

What do you guys think Dave is going to do? I heard Tom Dreesen talking about Dave on the radio this morning. Here's an interesting article.

Tom Dreesan is a very underrated comic IMO.
Not sure anybody was or could ever be. Johnny was the GOAT.

I was a late starter with watching it. Of course, here in Germany, it is not on TV, so it has to be on Youtube.
So right now, I looked and found out: Hey, CBS offers to watch full episodes from last night etc. Oh Happy Day!
Then, I clicked, it took a minute, then it said: Sorry, not available in your area.
I will have to watch it all in the little pieces on the Youtube channel.
I am a little teary-eyed right now. Very fond memories.

In 1993 and 1994 he did shows in LA and somehow I got tix to see him both times. One year I even got a Canned Ham from him. It is so cold in the studio because he wants people not to fall asleep and stay fresh.
I was in the audience for this show. When she came out and did this - let's just say it was something I will never forget:

I'll keep the last show on DVR until I can burn it to a DVD. I was a huge Dave fan from Day 1. I always enjoyed Jack Hanna's appearances. And I think the funniest episode was the one where I came close to choking out because I was coughing so hard as I laughed. It was with Rena Smaha and her monkeys. Sandy the monkey broke bad on Dave and was gonna whup dat azz!
Man, I just watched this again and my stomach hurts and I have tears running down my face. Damn, that was funny stuff!
Also, I swear I can't believe that Dave and Terri Garr weren't romantically involved at some point. I know she's sick now. But back when she was on Dave's show all the time, she was so witty and a hottie.

The skit/segment that made me laugh till I cried was the one where either Dave or some actor was working as a clerk in a store and when the transaction was completed they would say " Next time bring ya sister, you hump!"
That could get hairy with some customers and they would want to fight .
I also dropped into Rupert G's Hello Deli a couple of times and had a pastrami on rye and Snapple. Took a couple of selfies with him. Rupert is a prince of a guy

It is very easy to meet Rupert. Just drop into the deli when you are in NYC. There are many people waiting in line to buy a sandwich or take a photo. He is very accommodating
Way before any of our time, but Steve Allen has to be included. And Joey Bishop wasn't too shabby either.
