That is the line I most remember from this interview when it first aired. So subtle and understated, and yet so hysterical. I think many of us feel that way towards that show!

I genuinely teared up after this video. I didn't want it to end. David is what I grew up watching and feel the same about how he feels about Regis. He is the last of the best late night talk show hosts. Dave you are the G.O.A.T.

I love seeing these two together in their element. Such a mutual respect and love for their craft and each other.

I am so goddam puzzled about the Kim Kardasian thing. 80s Dave would have hated her. I watched the episode and she did NOT impress. So narcissistic, and how impressed should we be that she spends 20 (!) hours a week studying law??? I read 100 pages of case law a day in law school. She is deadly boring.

David Letterman, the One and Only! Thanks Jimmy for having him in your show!

I have loved Dave since I first discovered him doing a stand up routine. He was portraying a news anchor who says the end of the world is here, but first does your cat ever make this sound. Then he proceeds to imitate a cat coughing up a hairball. I died laughing. It was the funniest thing I ever saw. I always said it didn't matter who the guest was on Letterman~you tuned in for Dave. Wish they'd do a compilation of all the Jungle Jack Hanna visits and Dave's specials, like the velcro wall. I'm happy that I saw both shows in person a few times. Good memories!!

cant get enough Dave... I was lucky enough to see his show live twice... I love Dave...

Dave, you have never been funnier! That whole bit about answering calls at home between 6 and 7 "it's like being in a play." So hilarious. And yes, we love you Regis. Dave, that segment was an A++, it was perfect. Thank you! I needed that laugh today.
