She can probably recall what the weather was like that day .
Truly phenomenal memory!
SHE'S ONE OF THOSE IN A MILLION WHO HAS A MEMORY LIKE AN IRON GATE. SHE CAN RECALL ANYTHING!!!
What's amazing is she didn't know everyone was like her back then.
And what was in her stool.
@@dustinolvey8877 That's true, actually. She can.
I had such a crush on Marilu Henner!
Me too
Word
Same. Still do.
Any heterosexual male with two working eyes had a "crush" (putting it EXTREMELY mildly) on this woman.
Had?
Finally, an entertainer who actually knows what clip they are showing and what the show is about...
Marilu's photographic memory is just one of her attractive qualities.
I absolutely love her. What a gem.😃👍
Just throwing this out there but back in ‘94’ when I was 7 at Nickelodeon studios, they asked what my favorite Nick show was, I kept saying “Taxi” and they were like “ok kid that’s enough”
So happy to read this. Taxi was my favorite back then too (and I was 11/12). I remember Nick (at Nite) had some kind of Taxi trivia contest, and I won a Taxi wrist watch and whistle.
That’s awesome 😎
Great, wonder what reaction a kid saying "Benny Hill" would've got?
@@wotdoesthisbuttondo
!(: That would have been me ;)!
Marilu Henner has a photographic memory. She can tell you what happened on any given day from her entire life. It’s amazing!
- Not photographic. That's different. Her memory is Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory. (HSAM).
@@HardRockMiner Thanks professor.
@@TurtleTimeVoiceOvers - It will be on the final exam.
@@HardRockMiner 😁👍
@@HardRockMiner I can remember months and years but not exact days of events in my life. Is that the same thing?
For any big Taxi fans out there, the interesting thing about the clip they played is that it appears to contain a line that was cut from the actual broadcast, when Alex asks her if Zifka has a last name she replies "Zabaloplop", I double checked and that isn't there in the final edit.
I had a *HUGE* crush on her
Get in line, pal
Great to be able to see all these old clips so easy on You Tube.
No offense to Dave or WW Pants, but if Marilu Henner came onto my talk show, I wouldn't want to talk about Andy. I'd want to talk about Marilu Henner,
From what I recall, Kaufman was a nightmare to work with and it only got worse as he became the breakout star.
I'd want to talk about Andy
Dave wants to dig up some dirt about Kaufman and I love how Marilu shut him down. Letterman could be a real schmuck.
@@cw5050That’s because you’re a fan simping on a celebrity, not his coworker who has to see his 5 days a week.
well, they worked together... so it IS her life too.
Love this really old Dave stuff most.
Happy Birthday, Marilu! (April 6)
She is absolutely gorgeous, inside and out. Such a kind and beautiful lady.
And brilliant-She literally remembers every day in fine detail. You can say what did you do on April 10th 5 years ago and she has total recall.
Marilu Chicago’s very own. She’s a Princess
Somewhere along the line years later she had a change of heart and ultimately having high regard for Andy. You can find an interview with her on YT talking more about Andy.
My guess is that she found him to be exhausting and his insistence on trolling everybody probably came across as selfish and rude. I can see her point. I would feel the same. It is one thing to troll the world because that is your schtick, but to inflict that 16 hours a day on your fellow professional actors is not necessary.
I doubt she or the cast did. They probably die a little inside everytime they have to pretend he is now a "genius". He was weird and rude, and could be argued harassed the cast under the weird guise it was his Tony Clifton character, then gaslight them pretending they were not the same people. As the guy above said..how exhausting that had to be. What the cast says now about Kaufman is 100% being classy and not speaking ill of the dead and bringing up the bad past.
Smart and mature. To not acknowledge him would only serve to diminish her in the public's eyes.
She is so pretty.
Kaufman managed to get his Tony Clifton character signed as a bit part on the show. He ( the character) was eventually fired in front of the entire cast. Was it Andy or Bob Zmuda?
Marilu, Rhea Perlman, Judd Hirsh, Danny Devito, Tony Danza, Jeff Conaway, Christopher Loyd, Andy 'Latka' Kaufman...my fav classic quirky tv comedy, Taxi🚕🚖
Sexiest lady, Marilu, everybody's dreamgirl🥰😍😘🤩edit: thanks for showing the clip!
Randal Carver was good too. However, he didn't last long.
Thank you very much.
This clip reminds me of January 16, 1964. I was home from school. It was 3:24 PM. I made a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. First, I put on the peanut butter. I opened the fridge and saw that we were out of my favorite raspberry jelly. So I used strawberry, instead. That finished the jar, so I threw the empty jar in the garbage.
What kind of peanut butter how many ounces of peanut butter did you put on your sandwich? what is happening in the world what was the headline - I can’t even imagine what a burden would be to have a photographic memoryt
@@gregb8565 Well, obviously I know the answers to those questions. I didn't include them because I thought they'd detract from the storyline.
Smoke show then, smoke show now
OK Neo, tell us all about it
2:03 LOL I just hear a car engine trying to start
The old celebrities were more down to earth than the new one's today. Refreshing.
For the most part, they cut their teeth doing stage acting and many still did Summer Stock theatre when their sitcoms were in summer reruns. In other words, many were “working actors” and took on the philosophy that they must understand people and how people interacted with each other. I think now, there is a narcissistic thing going on where it’s about the continual promotion of a face/ego. Now, there were certainly Divas back in the day (Elizabeth Taylor, etc.) but that existed in its own odd territory in the acting world and it was pretty rarified…and it wasn’t always a compliment.
@@drummer78 I cannot imagine today's Hollywood actors staying at a train conductors house they just met in Italy for 10 days or sleeping on a crowded apartment floor in a walk up in Sicily. To high and mighty for that.
Do you know that Ms Marilu Henner has the capacity to remember EVERYTHING from when she was a child up to the present day ? Its called a Superior Autobiographical Memory ! For example she can tell what day it was on September 18 th 1964 without reference to a calendar ? She can tell you what she had for dinner on Saturday February 4 th 1973 as another example ? What colour of clothes and which clothes she was wearing on other dates and what the headlines were in the news on all days gone by ? I believe that under 20 people on earth have this otherworldly gift ? I wish i was one of them ...what a life ! PS ..remembering lines for a movie would be a doddle for Ms Henner !
That Berkshire Place sponsorship still paying off 42 years later
I wonder if that number still works.
Ah,the origin of my infatuation with redheads
Dave should have asked her what she was doing the night of the moon landing.
The golden age of late night talk shows
I didn't care for Letterman at this stage. He tried too hard. Later, I enjoyed his calmness.
Sad to say, but her two ex-husbands passed away within a week from each other last year. That must have been a rough patch in her life. She sure can get your attention.
Suup’ w/er’ supposed I.Q. & perfect memory recall . Pre- cutting white days.
Who knows if it was a rough patch? I don’t know her personally. Maybe she hated her ex-husbands.
Marilu is a member of a very exclusive club with only 100 members worldwide.
She has highly superior autobiographical memory. She can recall memories from every day of her life since her childhood.
She was such a beauty.
Fun fact: Marilu has a highly superior autobiographical memory, ( HSAM. ) One of only 100 cases in the world, she can recall past events in near photographic detail. And she's pretty, too.
She was just 30 yrs old in this video. She was riding high on Taxi.
I think it was snowing that day.
This was the best time to be alive... and I was just born.
I wish I was the age I am now back then. Darn it.
you ever notice how even the celebrities in the 80s were more genuine and real? now adays its seems everyone is fake .
I love the letterman. I love the show, but it is all about dave back then , he’s grown old and wise and more compassionate with his beard ;)
A gorgeous woman❤
Come to think of it, her character did VERY few scenes with Andy Kaufman during the run of the show
They cut out Kenny the Gardener.
The added laughter track on that show was silly and over the top, like most USA comedy shows it spoils it.
You mean the live audience? 🤦♂
Kaufman was not very funny to me. Christopher Lloyd is the reason I watch these reruns
Worked with her brother Lauren in a restaurant in the late 70's
So? That’s it??
You know that woman has a a supernatural memory brain function ? She can remember every single day since she was 12.
There is a documentary about that…
She has the rare ability of perfect photographic memory so she can repeat in her mind exactly what wrongs Kaufman and others him said or did to her forever.
Her brother Tom uses her name to get whatever his wants. And he talks a little too much about her private affairs to strangers. Not good.
Andy was so young when he died, just 35.
what a beautiful woman.
I forgot how cute she is😮
Why do I think an REM song was written about this episode?
I imagine Kaufman could be "interesting" to work with.
According to the SNL backstage bio, even Ann Beatts thought he was too eccentric 😮
As others have said Ms Henner has a photo memory and Andy did the best Elvis imitation by far. Some one on Taxi said Andy was one in a billion.
That's just so sad. I didn't even know that she was sick.
She's still alive
Because she isn't, though I did have to Google after this was posted to make sure.
@@thedude4672 That can't be right.
@@SigHawk04 Okay then what about Andy Kaufman?
@@seanwebb605 I think we have to start looking at the bigger picture: if the Letterman channel is posting a lot of these clips, but everyone's OK or otherwise not dead, and we're looking for reasons for all these posts... then, what's the common denominator?
I tried calling the number at the end. Hotel Dunphy has switched numbers with Mutual Services, and their offices were closed. Yet another thriving American business ruined by meddling bureaucracy, ladies and gentlemen.
Well obviously Andy had something unpleasant happen between Marylou and himself? She has a photographic memory and total recall. What she should have done is ask what Dave was going to ask her about?
Johnny Dangerously
That’s alright I never talk about him either
I liked Mary , but Carol Kane was very attractive as well .
This is really early and this was very stiff. Letterman was still new and you could see it. Talk about an awkward interview. LOL
And Andy Kaufman was a weirdo. The bad stories about him are a lot. Jim Carrey thought he was a genius though and did a movie about him like 25 years ago where everyone showered praise of Kaufman. They even got the Taxi cast to be in the movie by dumping a ton of money on them. And I guarantee they all probably wanted to die pretending that they all loved the guy for that movie and thought he was a "genius" too. None of them did, at all. Only because he died young and the cast was classy that they never dumped on him publicly, other than the veiled things you see here.
ABC, Not NBC
ABC: Sept 1978 - May 1982
NBC: September 1982 - June 1983
As a guy. She checks all the boxes.
Lettermans favourite interview subject is himself
I think you mean _Letterman's_ and I've just watched the whole video and he doesn't mention himself once. What are the time stamps where you believe he talks about himself?
Marilu still looks good these days but good god was she gorgeous back then.
I really liked Andy Kaufman in the early years but he became irritating and annoying very early in his career.
It might be a burden to remember everything. I hope not.
She's goofy.
Taxi clip is cringe, but Marilu is aces.
looks like a super forgetful chick, i bet she can't remember where she parked 10 minutes ago.
I remember reading once, that Andy Kaufman was the only one of the main cast Marilu Henner didn't sleep with. I guess he must have been a real pain in the arse.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂 hiiii
David Letterman was a terrible interviewer in this clip. Wow. When I think of great late night interviewers, I always come back to Craig Ferguson. David was flat, flat. I think he got better towards the end though.
Listen if you think he was a genius you are welcome to that view but some of us thought he was a really annoying weirdo whose behavior was incomprehensible and not very funny.
Yep. 100% agree. Jim Carrey skewed the whole conversation about Kaufman with that fawning movie he did. Many people did not think he was funny, at all.
You don't invite a guess on your show to talk about someone else. Total disrespect.
He was NOT a good interviewer back then. People sometimes forget when even legends start out, they are not good from the get go. I think he merely thought he would bring up all the cast as questions and had no idea she hated Kaufman. He was not prepared, had nothing to say to her and the comments he tried to make that were supposed to be funny landed like a dud.
So wrong. Yes, Dave tried too hard early on. But here he was spot on. Her immediate avoidance of wanting to talk about Andy, changed the script. Everybody was like wait, what and now wanted to know more.
He didn’t. The fact SHE was clearly avoiding AK peaked Dave interest. That’s obvious.
she seems awfully bougie for being into white knights.
Huh. I wonder why Andy is a legend and I can’t even remember her name after just watching this clip?
Easy to answer, he isn't. Jim Carrey thought he was and made a movie about him and gave him unwarranted praise. Mostly because he knew he was good at playing Kaufman and it was a vanity project.
@@timreeves8937 oh, I didn’t realize that. That’s absolutely one of the dumber things I’ve heard on these platforms
Talk about something else? But the only thing interesting about you IS Andy.
No one would have said that in 1982 dude. She was considered one of the best looking women on TV.
He is so obnoxious I’m glad he’s gone
Yeah, never liked him much
So much non talent on the same screen.
You're in the minority on that. Now go back to your Barney the Dinosaur videos
@@Hampton_Doubleday_Jr Majority doesn't make right.
@@fjccommish Nice straw man
@@fjccommish But your opinion does make it right? Arrogant much?
I couldn't stand Kaufman. He was a whackloon.
Do you mean wack-a-doodle??
Taxi was over rated.
Wow, she's really annoying.
You poor soul
I'm guessing you don't like classy, feminine women.
Andy Kaufman wasn’t funny
Totally agree. I'll never understand why people thought he was funny.
Marilu Henner such a beautiful woman with an uncanny photographic memory!
Who also has phenomenal legs and possesses an eidetic memory.
Not sure why Letterman is regarded so highly. He's awkward and frankly not that bright...Not a patch on Craig Ferguson, Colbert or Conan. Henner carries this whole interview..
Wow, she was beautiful!
