    It seriously warms my heart that right before she died she got the chance to have that whole bit where Dave walked off and she got to do a joke and tell the audience “we’ll be right back after this” like she did on the Tonight Show. Joan ALWAYS showed up with 120%. She’s the best

      Hey David really didn’t do her a favor. David did not invite her in her hard days ( Carson mess) because he was loyal to Carson. To me letterman is a kiss ass like Jay Leno.
      After Carson retired, letterman started to invite Joan again.

    I just came across this and two of the best hours in a very long time on youtube. I saw Joan ages ago in Hamilton Ontario shortly after my father killed himself. This was a gift from my sister as she knew I loved Joan. My Nana and I would watch her on late night and laugh and laugh. Joan may be gone a few years now but never never never forgotten..... Miss the comedy genius of Joan Rivers.

    Carson was still alive in 2002 when Letterman had Joan on for the first time since the Fox breakaway. That took courage. I wonder if Dave called Johnny to ask him if it was okay.

      Hey but Carson was retired from the show business in 2002.
      I don’t know why people think David had courage when he invited Joan in 2002.
      Why didn’t he invite Joan in 1988 ( the time she needed the most)

    • @gracieg7601

    Thank you so very much for posting this. What an excellent video! I've been a fan of Joan ever since I was a kid and was fortunate to have seen her live twice as well as be in the audience for her Fox show. A page took my "Enter Talking " book backstage to Joan and she autographed it - that was in 1986 and it still thrills me. Thank you again and take care.

    I can never be a great Carson fan after finding out how his friendship with Rivers ended. What a class act he was - all class when she left to star in her own late show. If he was that smart - he would've known what was going on and why, which lead to her leaving and not being able to ask him about it.
    She got screwed by NBC, Fox and lost her husband. Joan makes me laugh all the time, watching Johnny on YT he mostly leaves me cold. And people rave about him. She's a laugh a minute, he's a laugh once per show.

    TV Hosts and crew dislike children and kids. They are not allowed to be there.
    I was once a kid and was not allowed to be in the audience on a show where my father was going to be interviewed. So I was set backstage. They couldn't care less about me. They just wanted me to sit down in a chair in a small narrow room for hours. I didn't. I would wonder off. One time I was behind the stage curtains and I almost burst in there witch could have ruin the live program. I didn't because I was a child but I had sense. From this small experience I could immediately sense reality is opposite to what you see and feel wile watching at home. It is all fake. Even the nicest host can be abnóxios rude and not nice when its off camera.

    It took Letterman many, many, many years to invite Joan on his show after her Fox show failed. Joan was banned from NBC because of Johnny Carson and Letterman did NOT invite her on his show in the 1980s or 1990s.

    My age allows me to remember watching Joan Rivers through the years and certain jokes that she often told. But after watching her justify her stinging remark about Lindsey Lohan and her substance struggles,and because someone responded to it she comes on Letterman telling the story as if she was victimized. Well no more watching or listening to her recorded noise anymore.
