Welcome to the Letterman TH-cam 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 artisanally-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.

The brilliant comedy of the sweet old lady with a fridge full of nothing but malt liquor and slim Jim’s. Genius.

[@sesa2984]

There was beef jerky too.

[@lisa438321]

There’s your secret to a long life…malt liquor and Slim Jim’s

[@Rjensen2]

It's not really that brilliant. It's been done a million times by many shows and skits.

[@thelettermanpodcast]

That show, like Dorothy’s pies, was made with love.

[@mhmrules]

Sounds like a Saturday night at my house

[@KrisRowberry]

It’s not Thanksgiving until you hear that one-of-kind, “Oh David!”

[@jaytc3218]

RIP Dorothy😢. Everybody loved Dave's mom!😇

[@assmane999]

impossible to dislike. Absolutely delightful human being.

[@kstepko]

Dorothy really did look beautiful that Thanksgiving!

[@sandrasmile]

Her smile makes me smile ❤️

[@JohnnyMRey]

Man... This is what I miss from TV. Dave was the man. Welcoming and eventful.

[@dianewinters8628]

Dorothy America's favorite Mom. It's not Thanksgiving until Dave talks to his Mom.

[@johncritch6812]

Always loved this segment

[@ArtificialBanana]

A true slice of Americana!

[@Heres_Johnny.]

What a sweet, gracious and lovely person she was. The world could use a billion more like her. When I pass on I hope I get to meet her!!

[@vanessawhitneypro]

Peace and Love, to All... Thanks Dave & Crew... Thank You, Dorothy...

[@greggillard327]

Beautiful! This is what’s missing from late night TV and America - fresh, wholesome down home humor. A real slice of Americana. We miss you Dave!

[@ComedyRoom10]

I’m in the bathroom typing this right now. I’ll be getting another piece of pie when I’m done.

[@paradiddle5150]

What model toilet are you using?

[@ComedyRoom10]

[@SKYSCRAPERTELEVISION]

This is Perfect timing as I am just having dinner.
The tradition of eating ( usually my 4th plate of the day) and watching Dave on Turkey Day Continues ! Thank You Dave (and crew AND Mrs Letterman r.i.p.) I'm having Key Lime this year. I couldn't find Raspberry at all !

[@chrisnichols4962]

I would look forward every Thanksgiving to see what wonderful pies Dorothy made. 🥧

[@Jezza819]

This annual visit to Dorothy's kitchen to guess the pies was one of my favorite things. I so looked forward to it every year. All of the videos on this channel should have hundreds of thousands of views.

[@paradiddle5150]

His mom was sweeter than any pie, but I bet her pies were the best of the best. Rest in Peace Dorothy

[@jamesa.romano8500]

She seemed like such a sweet woman

[@paradiddle5150]

@@jamesa.romano8500 Indeed she was, and she would talk so highly of the film crew and staff. She would always send her regards to viewers and Dave's staff, and would talk so highly of the film crew when they'd do a live shooting in her house.

[@martina5296]

I was wondering for years why there always seemed to be something missing from Thanksgiving. Tonight it was answered. Thanks Dave and Dave's Mom.

[@edk2221]

I. Miss. This. Show. So. Much. 😢

[@_Tanasis_]

I was feeling upset and kinda frustrated about things,so I decided to watch this. I'm fine now. Dorothy was the sweetest mom ever.

[@bigtoepapa]

Dave's Mom is my Mom forever

[@patriciamorgan6545]

I miss Dorothy! So used to look forward to the pie guessing every year.
Hope all had a fine Thanksgiving!

[@kstepko]

They could never have called Paul’s mom on Thanksgiving, because Canada celebrates it on the second Monday in October! 🦃 🇨🇦

[@karimipoori7319]

Any men see Dorothy as a mum of their own , like my mum Dorothy is lovely, beautiful and kind 😊 ❤

[@zenseed75]

Hahahahaa, the concentration.

[@ShawnPlusOne]

I cried watching Johnny Carson’s last show and cried when David retired as well they were the best nobody compares Late Night was never the same I never really watched these new guys except occasionally Kimmel or Colbert.

[@michaelsullivan1262]

Pecan and blueberry!

[@clifforddriver9434]

Sweet potato pie is my favorite. Especially during Thanksgiving.

[@mikematei]

should upload the richard simmons clip he mentioned here

[@KingpinPadre]

The Donz had a quasi-compilation of Mom's stuff years ago and she revealed a chocolate chiffon pie. I made a request to my wife for that dish as dessert on my next birthday and it did not disappoint!

[@sesa2984]

Love.

[@thelettermanpodcast]

Peanut Butter Pie fooled him every-time.

[@otisdriftwood1697]

The only way Dave would look good in that hair. She would have to donate it to him.

[@thelil]

I hear Dave sometimes cheated on the pie guessing.

[@eprohoda]
