You're forgetting Paul. I would have been all over a Paul spinoff.

Is it asking too much to actually give us the lists?

I'm allergic to Damon Lindelof.

>>>even the most thick-skulled of high school jocks can tell their Iron Mans from their Dr. Dooms.

The only Letterman show I managed to see was when Late Night came out to Los Angeles. It was the episode where Johnny Carson brought his own portable desk out with him because he felt more comfortable that way. Lee Marvin was also on that night.

More early Letterman shows:

What did he create of lasting value and please don't say a f____ ad?

Warren Zevon, but yeah.

Plenty of people speculated on where that FAMOUS Coke commercial fit into Mad Men's universe ever since McCann-Erickson became part of the show.

He called her mother not because of bad French but because he was joking with her.

Just to show you what Letterman was like in his early days at NBC, here are some show synopses from that first year.:

That's why TV is the ultimate passive experience. It requires no thinking and when it asks the audience to think people get upset.

He dug up nothing. Anyone alive at the time (as Weiner was) and did research on advertising in the 70s (as Weiner did) would have had that ad on their radar.

I saw this in Paris, it's much better than the review.

Because Conan is the living embodiment of 2009.

That's giving too much credit to Letterman's CBS show which after a couple of years was just a shadow of his NBC shows and pretty bland as well.

plenty - Zero for Conduct, Monsieur Verdoux, Holiday, If…, Reds

All that from the trailer?

None.

Why are people still signing up Travolta to be in their films? He's basically a laughingstock at this point and his movies are usually D.O.A. at the box office.
