If I remember right, DFW writes that he loves Letterman because he just doesn't play along with all the happy-lovely conventions of a talk-show at that time. Let the celeb talk. Flatter them. Play up whatever they're trying to plug. Instead he calls bullshit on it. But Susan St. James rolls with it completely and even gives him back a bit of what he's dishing out.
Fran Looving she said that her 2nd husband and her decided to go vegetarian and eliminate eating fish. She said that pregnancies were easy with no complications.
David Foster Wallace brought me here...
Ana Prescott thank you.
I don't see this dark fearful thing you seem to see
Me too

@@blanketparty7385 “and that turned out to be the mistake.”
I loved her as Sally MacMillan
And, The Name of The Game. Beautiful gal.
@Bob Grey who was what show was she on as Peggy Maxwell & also she was hot as Sally Macmillan, sorry pal but you need some glasses
Cool bit of trivia. Kate and Allie was taped in the Ed Sullivan Theatre, which later became the home of Letterman's show.
@Bob Grey They live fairly near each other in Connecticut
@Bob Grey not at all
She had one more and that was Teddy who unfortunately died in 2004 at 14 yearsold.
Her skin is so healthy and pretty looking. So weird to think she is the same woman from McMillan and Wife. Pretty on both shows.

I seen bit of Kate &- alley. She played on episode of mash. Alley played on third rock later.
Why is she so cool
Supposedly the source of one of DFWs short story
Yep - RIP Wallace, the last true literary genius
After this interview I am utterly confused about the DFW dust up
3:08 they are almost 80 now which has got to hurt.
A little house was $30k in 87
Geez Dave!!! Didn’t you like her?
