Welcome to the Letterman KZhead Channel, home to all your favorite clips from Late Night and Late Show - as well as conversations with the writers, producers and performers who helped make it all happen. These highlights have been artisanly-produced, carefully-curated, and chosen completely at random by an old computer that used to pick numbers for the New York Lotto back in the 90’s.
Just having Alex saying it so straight faced makes it even funnier.
He had a great sense of humor. He was always willing to lampoon himself, and he always committed to the bit.
Alex, the true master. RIP
He was golden. I miss him.
He had a hard time holding it in on #5 though 🍁🍁
You realize his appearance was recorded.
Can I just say to whoever runs this channel - THANK YOU that we don't have to sit through ads to get to the goods.
heh. I just discovered this channel today (relied on Don Giller all these years). Looks brand-new and it's promising. Once they get subs and we're all hooked, they will add ads
Alex always had a great sense of humor.
Alex always had fun hosting the multiple shows he had.RIP,Sir!
conan does a better job
@@eddiejoewalt7746 I do love the bit Alex did with Conan.
Y'know... he was in an episode of X-Files...
@@kinsmed he was that episode where he a member of the men in black
This is quite literally the 2 people on television who shaped me the most: my sense of humor and my thirst for knowledge would be nothing without these two. Keep up the good work, Dave. And thank you for everything, Alex.
Thank you again for everything, Alex, especially in 2002 when I had the chance to meet you in person and compete on “Jeopardy!” It was an honor to be introduced as “A pharmacist from Augusta, GA (where I lived at the time)”
I must concur. Two men, meaningful, to me, as well.
Top tens were the best part of letterman.
That's on its own top ten.
Love how the Cher joke still works, even though it was more a dig at her based on her previous appearance on Letterman.
Freaking brilliant! Damn I miss Alex Trebek.
Me too. This made me laugh hard but then I started tearing up. A great man gone. 😢💔
@@meganbarber3599 Indeed to all that. Trebek was a great sport to do all this material with his usual straight face style.
How the hell did this show up in my suggestions today, and thank you very much to whoever made it happen. 😎
my same reaction.
When you start with a killer Cher joke, you know its going to be a good one
I love Top Ten lists that I even read the first and second volume of the Top Ten! RIP Trebek
This is an incredible channel! Love seeing these clips that I missed when they originally aired.
Watching this just makes you realise how much we actually appreciate and miss David Letterman. A true TV legend in every sense of the word. We miss you Dave 😢
0:47 paul's laugh/scream
R.I.P. Alex Trebek, a great Jeopardy host!
Kidding aside...love you Alex! R.I.P.
#10 was the best! Thanks for the uploads! Much better quality than having to watch old vhs tapes!
Look at that tie!
Dave's or Alex's?
@@ntl5983 Dave's. It's like a clown tie. Alex's is kinda 90s fashion.
Man, this is golden! Love it!!
Miss you, Alex!
Is it strange that I base my life's timeline on the years before Trebek's mustache and the years after?
We ♡ you, alex!
Trebek, you magnificent bastard
Things that smell like eggs 😂🤣😂🤣
Said by Chip Esten on Whose Line "I'll take Things Nobody Knows for 200."
More than a few of those would fit quite well on SNL's Celebrity Jeopardy.....
If these were actual categories Sean Connery would have instantly won!
🤣🤣🤣 Alex's delivery just makes it funnier. Hysterical!
It would have been funnier if he actually did it live.
@@toreckman8899 I thought you were doing time?
@@meganbarber3599 no. No. I’m out. I got out.
@@toreckman8899 🤣 I heard you're not a doctor but you play one in real life.
@@meganbarber3599 holistic healer. Doctors are quacks.
That tie was absolutely ridiculous. , , , , ,and . . . .well . . . . Dave was too at times. Dave is a unique taste in comedy. Thanks for your channel's focus on Dave's unique comedy. I missed a lot of his shows over the years.
Miss you dearly, Alex.
love dave miss him
1:30,....Dave was looking hard at Paul Schaffer as an inside joke to the number 5 item because Schaffer is from Canada.
So was Trebek
@@sheboyganshovel5920 Yes, Trebek was from Canada.
Alex was a good guy.
0:57 Might be a wider category than you think
George Alexander Trebek 1940-2022 We'll miss you, pal.
"Things Cher has had done to her" should have been number one judging from the reaction it received.
Number 5 actually seemed Legit! haha
Listening to alex say this is like first hearing Patrick stewart play avery bullock on American dad. Hilarious.
"Things that smell like eggs" That defiantly made it on Celebrity Jeopardy somehow
Alex Trebek R.I.P
I hope Alex greeted Bob Barker at the pearly gates with a handshake.
People who knew the value of making other people laugh!
#6 showed up on January 23, 2008.
#5 is very different since Workin Moms.
Alex, I'll take 'Gap Toothed Freaks' for One Thousand.
#10 sounds like HASN'T would be a shorter list AND the HAS would be another top 10 list.
1:15 #6 could actually work if the question writers though about it enough. 😁
I learned the word "chafing" from Dave.
first one is the best.
"Who is Andre The Giant!?"
He was a giant and his name was Andre.
Rest in peace EH DUde !!
I remember when the categories came unscrambled with that effect, what's it called?
I wonder if in #2 he would have put Sean Connery in there. Also instead of "Ito's, Tito's, and Frito's", I'd be down for the category "Frito's, Dorito's, and Tostito's"
😂😂😂
Like Dave's tie
It would have been funnier if it was Will Ferrell doing it as Trebeck.
Obviously, throbbing came up before the list was shown.
They should also do top 10 things alex trebek hates
Could've added potent potables to the list
As Ken suggested, Can I buy a vowel?
Legal
I miss Alex Trebak so much but he's the greatest longtime host for Jeopardy game shows. 👍
rip alex
Things Cher has had done to her. 😂
By choice!
As a gap toothed freak, I would have liked to have seen that category. Shame on you, Trebek!
Ken Jennings might get the writers to make that category a reality. Who knows?
What is the twisted moose, Alex.
I think numbers four and five overlap.
I thought the same... 😃
If they knew then what we know now, football would be a rejected category. And I'm pretty sure the $800 question for the #2 category would involve Sean Connery somehow. LOL
I know nothing about Cher other than her work with Sonny.
God, I miss Alex. Ken is good, Mayim is ok, but they are no replacements.
Who is Sean Connery?
"We meet again Trebek! "
Can't believe they cut off Dave's reaction to the #1 category. The editor of this clip should be fired. Unless of course she's an intern.
"Who is Madonna?"
Too bad he destroyed his legacy with those endless life insurance scam commercials. How greedy can you get.
I liked Ken's top 10 better!
Nowadays there would be a lot more rejected categories with how sensitive people are these days 🙄🙄🙄🙄
HONORABLE MENTION: People Who Sit Behind a Desk and Do Nothing
That was once mentioned on "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" when they were playing Scenes From a Hat, and the suggestion pulled out by Drew Carey was "Jeopardy questions where the Whose Line cast members are the answers".
When Linton trash was funny.
Would've liked , to have seen Alex's view on him/hers on the show . No, offense to : anyone or preference its your choice .
Nice to see clips of Lertterman when he was actually funny. Of course that all happened well before he got political about everything and began to hate the political opponent of every left wing goofball.
Yes, it's everyone else that's changed and not you
I thought it was after that one and only time he hosted the Oscars.
