My goodness, Julie was SO beautiful at this time! Hard to believe how nervous she was, and I've not often seen Letterman so completely helpless. It would appear from this that her character on Airplane was firmly planted in her actual personality! I'm still in love with her after all these years....
I took care of Julie's Mother in a nursing home I worked at in Ohio for 3 years Her Mom said Julie was discovered by Mrs.Ford ( Presidents wife) and her career took off after that Her Mom had pictures of Julie and her brother on her wall Her Mother had modeled and had also dated Dean Martin She had a picture of herself dancing with Dean She was so proud of her childrens accomplishments She was great to talk to with all her stories
Is this the way Julie really is like the way she was on Letterman or was she just having him on like a little skit. If she is this shy in real life she must have to reach deep down in herself in order to do a role like airplane. She reminds me of Katherine Hepburn. 😊
Mr Jiggly Oh, cut the bleeding heart crap, will ya? We've all got our switches, lights, and knobs to deal with, Striker. I mean, down here there are literally hundreds and thousands of blinking, beeping, and flashing lights, blinking and beeping and flashing - they're *flashing* and they're *beeping*. I CAN’t stAND it anyMORE! ThEY're *bliNKIng* and *bEEPing* and *FLASHINg*! WHY doESN't someBODY PuLLTHE plug!
@@donaldshrump9168 Donald. That was effed up! Really, dude? But it was hilarious and made me laugh out loud. And, to be fair, the joke was just laying there. Waiting to be plucked like ripe fruit. You had to. I get it.
She is one of the funniest and cutest, just lovable actresses out there. Kinda like Beverly D'Angelo in Christmas Vacation. I just watched Lost in America for the first time. I wish she had had more roles in films. She definitely deserves all the praise. Total heartbreaker. You know my ex-girlfriend had a smile like that. I could die.
@@fede018 Excerpt: "When the actress Julie Hagerty came on the show to promote a sequel, Airplane II, the result was a cringe-inducing exchange between two socially awkward celebrities. Hagerty was nervous to the point of paralysis, answering questions abruptly, though not rudely. She was polite, but clearly shy. Letterman did nothing to put her at ease. In fact, her inability to perform seemed to anger him, his temper rising. After a few questions, he didn’t become flustered so much as antagonistic. But the way he communicated his fury was by pointedly matching her in small talk, being boring to comment on her boringness, mocking her through imitation. It was brutal."
Letterman admitted he learned over the years some tactics to help ease kind nervous people. The Letterman with experience would have said “Hey! I loved the Airplane film. And this whole audience loved it, and love you. You’re among friends.” There would have been a loud applause and that might have helped. The comedian in him would love the comedy that could be worked in that situation, but she was so sweet he’d go the other way.
If Letterman actually was perturbed with her, that's on him. She's absolutely adorable. How you could look at those twinkling eyes and sweet smile and get angry is a mystery.
Letterman wasn't perturbed with her, per sé, but he was very upset about being put on the spot like that, having to carry the entire conversation. You can be extremely uncomfortable with a situation, but it doesn't mean you're furious with the person who is responsible for leaving you high and dry. Imagine having millions of people watching you on your own show, and having to interview a guest who seems lost at sea, and can only give perfunctory answers such as "sure". I would hate to be on that hot seat!
Letterman is ultimately an entertainer, and if he wants to continue in his job he needs to entertain people. He's obviously always thinking about how his show is playing for viewers at home, and when he gets into a difficult interview like this one, he gets anxious because he knows he's going to lose viewers as they change the channel to something else...
I'm probably gonna get a lot of flack for this, but I've always found her voice to be... well... kind of annoying. She's seems sweet, sure, and kind, but the way she speaks comes off to me as if she is either speaking to a toddler or coming on to someone Marilyn Monroe style, making everything she says, even when she's serious, come off less so. But hey, I'm just ONE individual with an opinion. And I guess most know that saying about opinions and buttholes... 😁 Everyone has one
Little fact for ya, just a couple of hours before this program aired on NBC, they aired "Quincy", which put up the infamous punk rock episode entitled "Next Stop, Nowhere".
I haven't seen this in 35 years and you were reluctant to put it up? It was awesome TV, that's why I still remember it like it was yesterday. I'd never seen stage fright like that and still haven't.
Well, I thought it may have been pretty embarrassing for her, and that's not my intent -- to dump on the innocent. I hope I made the right decision to put it up.
Not sure what you're talking about, that she became far more relaxed and confident in subsequent appearances. Her next appearance in 1986 was just as bad...or just as good, depending on whether you were experiencing it as her or experiencing it as a viewer. I was a viewer, so it was good.
@@Falafelkid - Giller is correct, this wasn't an act. She was nervous and couldn't think of anything entertaining (or, at all!) to say. It was one of Letterman's most uncomfortable interviews.
Don, you are my new hero! I can't tell you how happy seeing all these videos again makes me. And the quality is just great. Could you share your process for digitizing from tape?
Thanks, Gary! But a hero I'm not. :) The process is pretty straightforward: 1. Digitize tape to DVD burner in "real-time." Then finalize DVD-R. 2. Stick newly-burned DVD-R into MacPro and convert to .mp4 file via "Free DVD Ripper." 3. Quick edit (to select a particular guest or comedy segment) in QuickTime Player. 4. Import the selected edit into either iMovie or Final Cut Pro, depending on the complexity of the project. Fine-tune edit, then convert to .m4v file and upload that to You Tube. Some take maybe an hour, others take days. The video quality varies, depending on the source, of course. I've got some pristine copies and some poor copies. I select the best I have at the time -- there are a bunch of earlier uploads that need to be upgraded, as I've since acquired much better copies, but that's down the line -- and sometimes I'll edit together disparate sources. Sometimes I'll have good video but poor audio in one source and bad video but good audio in another, so I'll combine the two so that the good audio syncs with the good video. Not all that simple, as I have to do it manually, by ear and sight. But I like the challenge, especially when it works.
Thanks, Don. Do you mean recording to an actual DVD player/recorder, not a PC or Mac's DVD drive? Also, which DVD rip software? I've yet to find one that does a good job.
Correct. The DVD-R serves as a backup to the converted .mp4 file, which is itself backed up onto several other drives. I mentioned the DVD rip software: "Free DVD Ripper."
I searched for that, but couldn't find anything with that actual name, just a slew of results for DVD software that is free to download. Do you know what company makes it?
I think everything's determined by whatever time is available at the moment as well as requests that don't take much of it. There are further compilations I plan to put up, but they take considerably more time to prepare, like the Fugitive and Regulator Guys, and there are a few that I can't get started until I finish digitizing the shows to a certain point, like Flunky, Pekar, Theodore, Leno, Ask Mr. Melman, Peace Through Dramatization, Etiquette, Frank & Fred, and others I can't think of right now. Currently I'm going through the writers' strike months of 1988, and I'm finding all sorts of goodies unrelated to LN that I want to put up, like Tom Smothers' Yo-Yo Man compilation, and Tonight Show appearances with Chuck Berry, Sammy Davis, Jr., and k.d. lang. What slows things down are work projects that pay the bills, and there are periods where I can't get anything else done until they're finished. So, again, it's all a matter of time.
Regardless of the speed, thank you for all your work Don. Did you get an early copy of "The Last Giant?" Also, Zinoman was on WTF with Marc Maron. Highly recommended listening.
I did. Fact-checked and copy-edited it last late October and helped him with his research over a two-year period. It's an absolute great book. He returned the favor ten-fold with something that'll hit the streets on Friday.
Don Giller Meaning you'll be uploading something big on Friday? Good to hear that the book is well-done. I hope you'll be fine with a higher volume of requests coming in while some big fans are reading that. I'm sure it looks back on some great bits.
Naw, nothing like that. Something that'll literally "hit the streets." (i.e., newstands) :) As I've been warning friends, if they think I was insufferable before, just wait. :)
She actually looked ok here. In a lot of her movies she looked really sickly, as if she needed a bowl of soup and bed rest. I often wondered if she was anorexic or had an eating disorder.
She is the embodiment of grace, femininity and just so delicate. I just adore her 💗
My goodness, Julie was SO beautiful at this time! Hard to believe how nervous she was, and I've not often seen Letterman so completely helpless. It would appear from this that her character on Airplane was firmly planted in her actual personality! I'm still in love with her after all these years....
She’s so incredibly sweet. Just like the character she played in the movies.
I know she is what a sweet speaking voice.
That sigh at the end and the look of relief that it was over. I felt that.
That really hurt, and I was not expecting it. 😥
I just love her soothing voice.
What a stunning and humble woman.
wow,her sound so gentle and sweet ,love it so much
I had such a crush on her back in the 80s and 90s. She is gorgeous. And that angelic voice!
She was so adorable and sweet back then (seems like she still is), no wonder I had a crush on her as a kid seeing Airplane back in like 1993.
I took care of Julie's Mother in a nursing home I worked at in Ohio for 3 years Her Mom said Julie was discovered by Mrs.Ford ( Presidents wife) and her career took off after that Her Mom had pictures of Julie and her brother on her wall Her Mother had modeled and had also dated Dean Martin She had a picture of herself dancing with Dean She was so proud of her childrens accomplishments She was great to talk to with all her stories

that's exactly the type of girl i would consider marrying
The girls like this are gone now.

The problem is finding a girl who would marry you.

She cheated Ted 2 times
Poor thing, that long sigh at the end. So sweet.

This was so wonderful.
Julie is so cute!!!
She is lovely Julie Haggerty.
She's seems sweet and very soft spoken and my God that hair she as 😍😍😍
She's so pure
Anyone else here because you read about this interview in the Letterman biography and needed to see it for yourself? Thanks for the upload.
What did he write about it?

Julie, always wonderful, we miss you at the movies!!!!

Yeah she went on again like a decade later and was more at ease and it was a lot less awkward
unbeLIEVABLE eyes
She was and still is an absolute doll.
She's beautiful.
If Letterman actually was perturbed with her, that's on him. She's absolutely adorable. How you could look at those twinkling eyes and sweet smile and get angry is a mystery.
I don't think so. Letterman being a shy and private guy himself, deep down he probably sympathized a lot of with her.
Letterman wasn't perturbed with her, per sé, but he was very upset about being put on the spot like that, having to carry the entire conversation.

She was great in Airplane! I wish she was given more roles.
She will be in the new Christmas story sequel
She just reprised her role in A christmas movie STory that came out last year. I haven't seen it yet
Sheesh, was she beautiful then! Well, she still is. But so nervous
Que linda sonrisa tiene esta actriz y transmite angel.
This is the best ASMR video ever
she is sooo feminine..truly delightfull and its so funny😊love her
Little fact for ya, just a couple of hours before this program aired on NBC, they aired "Quincy", which put up the infamous punk rock episode entitled "Next Stop, Nowhere".
by the way, is there anyone in the audience who can do an interview.....
By The Way Is There Anyone On Board Who Knows How To Fly A Plane?
i love the sigh at 9:18, like "oh my god, i just killed my career"
lovely voice
She's so adorable.
wow i always thought she was acting 😆😆
Imagine a conversation between Julie Hagerty and Norm Macdonald, they'd be best friends
I love the awkwardness of this lol. I think Dave has a crush on her too.
Man she is beautiful....
I was an avid Letterman watcher at this time, and I don't recall this appearance. Poor lady.
I do. I was in the 10th grade and crushing on her.
I haven't seen this in 35 years and you were reluctant to put it up? It was awesome TV, that's why I still remember it like it was yesterday. I'd never seen stage fright like that and still haven't.

I wanna just take a nap on her voice lol
She's not nervous. It's called an act. She's actually an actress.
This wasn't an act.
Don Giller Sure. It just happened to match her on-screen persona in every way. Typecast to the max.
@@Falafelkid - Giller is correct, this wasn't an act. She was nervous and couldn't think of anything entertaining (or, at all!) to say. It was one of Letterman's most uncomfortable interviews.

She s. Sweet
Why is she so untidy there?
It’s funny to see Dave struggle in an interview.
Is she actng?
David was up for the role of the pilot in the first Airplane.
That’s here - th-cam.com/video/TPwNVG14OIM/w-d-xo.html
Bit of an uploading binge huh?
Heh! It's a slow month. :)
Don Giller Don't suppose you have any early Jon Stewart appearances? Since he was in line to take in the show
Just checked to see if his one LN appearance from March 6, 1992, has already been uploaded, and it looks like it hasn't. Maybe tonight.
Just put it up -- th-cam.com/video/wxUBJYzJrYg/w-d-xo.html
Don Giller Duuuuuuuuuude 🙏
How do you decide what to upload? And are you working on anymore compilations?
I think everything's determined by whatever time is available at the moment as well as requests that don't take much of it. There are further compilations I plan to put up, but they take considerably more time to prepare, like the Fugitive and Regulator Guys, and there are a few that I can't get started until I finish digitizing the shows to a certain point, like Flunky, Pekar, Theodore, Leno, Ask Mr. Melman, Peace Through Dramatization, Etiquette, Frank & Fred, and others I can't think of right now.

Reading your comment brought to mind Elizabeth Warren who I've noticed always covers herself up with a "sweater," like she is trying to hid bones.
Like watching two people on a first date.
