Welcome to the Letterman RUclips 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. The language may strike you as quaint & flowery, the clothing comically lacey & ornate - but that’s how things were back in this colorful and now bygone era.

Tom Hanks being presented to a talk show with Smell Like Teen Spirit intro is something I would've never guess seeing in my life time. Scratch that one off the list.
Nod to Sleepless in Seattle
@@zackwetzel2158dammit I wanted to be the one😡
"Stop bending the shaft!" has been an often repeated catch phrase in my life since this originally aired 😃
My wife and I met just about a week before this aired. We watched it together that night and have been saying "Stop bending the shaft!!" for 30 years now.
I’ve told many a GF “… Stop Bending the Shaft!!!”
Mine too!
I remember watching this when originally broadcast…laughed to tears…and “bending the shafts” lives rent free in my head. Hanks did so well on Letterman. Always worth staying up late to watch..
Best part of the whole show!
Tom Hanks, my man! First time I've ever seen Paul not know a song.
Took me a long time to accept “Paul Shaffer and the CBS Orchestra.” It’ll always be the “World’s Most Dangerous Band” to me.
The cool thing is they reverted to that name after they left CBS.
I love that the Top Ten is included at the beginning to help give the whole video some better clarity and context.
Can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not. If yes, I dont get it.
If no, can you explain your statement?
One of the best talk show guests of all time, Tom Hanks.
Hearing Paul and the boys playing Nirvana out of the break and realizing it's been 30 years(!) since that song and this interview is breaking my brain.
I love when Tom Hanks talks about his love of Elvis films! I thought that I saw him sing “Roustabout” as Elvis at some point during his press junket last year, but could never find the clip again - because I was thinking of this interview instead!
I think Tom Hanks understood and participated in this format. Bring celebs to sell their movie and entertain the folks. A comsumate entertainment.
These uploads of Dave are making my morale so much better!
I was born in ‘84 and will never forget my mom regularly having Dave on her bedroom tv in the 90s. Those were the days. Tom was unequivocally one of the best guests there was. I miss this.
This was the opening of "Sleepless in Seattle", their lives would change forever🧚♀️
Tom Hanks was ALWAYS one of the most entertaining guests on any show.
Well Dave pointed something out about when people started to notice Tom wasnt just an entertaining actor but a great one but I was in the theater and remember the exact moment it happened, Radio Flyer, everyone left the theater saying you know I always liked Tom Hanks he was soo good.
This is and will always be the best interview.
Man Tom was on fire he was the right guest to have. Thanks for all the years of great laughs Dave ❤
Tom Hanks at the height of his powers! So funny, quick witted, and great! Love this interview! Also Dave at a peak as well. I never really did adjust to the CBS years, good as he still was. Anyway, thanks for sharing this. ❤
100% agree. While still ok, Dave and his show never regained its quirky magic of the late 80s/early 90s.
Holy heck this interview was off the charts!
Imaging starring in Big, A League of Their Own, and Sleepless in Seattle and none of them being in your top 10 grossing films 😮.
@paulpm1974that's not what he's saying
Illuminati
wait... 30 years ago???!!!! whaaaaaa .....
I watch clips from this show every day. Thank you for posting them.
Tom Hanks is one of the few people who could totally keep up with Dave, and sometimes get him completely off balance, in these interviews. He is always energetic and hilarious.
No matter what late night show he goes on, he always brings the goods. Not many guests understand that they're performing too.
He obviously prepared material
Tom could certainly hold his own. A really great interview.
There's something about life that seems very unfair; when the greatest living actor we now have, can also be this funny!?
I can’t get the 2 phrases “Roustabout” and “Stop bendin’ da shafts” outta my head😁
Adrienne Barbeau… fully understood.
Tom Hanks brought his 'A' game.
I got to be in the audience of David Letterman back in 1986. He is my all time Late Night Talk host with Conan coming in next. His stupid pet and human tricks were gold. The crazy stuff he was allowed to do was magical. Loved the Top Ten and it was such a big deal, that many news and radio stations would air them the day after his show. His salute to the Military and having almost every current Medal of Honor winner was nice as well. Besides the 2 Chief Warrant Officers who had been shot down During Desert Storm. Those guys were funny.
I was in the audience once, as well, and it was 1986, as well.
Dave was definitely different. Along with 3 landmark gags you mentioned he had, the alka-seltzer suit, the velcro suit, random phone calls, the "dancing waters" fountain in front of his desk...not to mention all the people that would show up just to jam with the band... Warren Zevon, David Sanborn, EVH etc... Similarly to the radio stations...me and my best friend would take turns recording the show (audio) on our boomboxes and listening to them after school the next day.
Tom Hanks is freakin hilarious
I would tune in now to watch Paul & "The World's Most Dangerous Band", play for a hour.
Don't worry, it won't be last time Dave says "BUTTAFUCO"
Dave was 100% correct about Paul and the band.
Truth be told, Meg Ryan does fit the profile of an Amway distributor!
Also, would be great to see Tom's first appearance on the Late Show.
It's available on RUclips.
Wow - Great clip!! Who doesn’t LOVE Tom Hanks? 💕
I don't like him he's a loud mouth liberal yuck.
Republicans
People that see how awful Hollywood is and has become!
One of those unwritten showbiz rules, if you're starting or ending a talk show, you must book Tom Hanks...
That tossed off "Roustabout" bit from Hanks could have been written today by Mulaney. It's fantastic.
Waiting for this since 1899!!! Great interview by Tom. I posted many years ago on a less than stellar copy of the "Stop bending the shafts" joke; had me laughing on the floor when I saw it on TV originally. Thanks for the upload.
@@robertgoerss 😀Irony? Sardony? Exaggeration to make a point? That escapes you? Unless you are in with the joke.
I love how Tom clandestinely forecasts both his appearance as Colonel Tom Parker in Elvis and 2 separate bits in his directorial debut, That Thing You Do by mentioning the plate spinning act on Ed Sullivan and Suzanne Pleshette at Chasen's.
These interviews are classics in their own right.
The Slappy White story I heard when it was told live....that day....since then i"ve got in engraved in my brain......his timing and interpretation of Slappy running with his arms all over the place is priceless
It's a shame Dave went to CBS. He had a strong run at NBC. Makes you wonder what MIGHT have been.
This is what TV used to be.
Dave said bye with class but notice there were no tears.
It was a change, but it not an end for Dave - and he wasn’t moving on alone.
A lot of people have worked on Cher.
Hi-yo! 🥁
@@robertgoerssI interpreted this as a reference to Cher having plastic surgery, not multiple boyfriends.
40 men eee I never knew thanks
This channel is great! Where the hell did 30 years go!? Thank you 🤟
Stop bending the shafts! Classic on the last 12:30 show.
Dave's 1993 signoff makes me sad. I was single parenting and so I missed a ton of Late Night shows, no time for watching tape either, and then 11 years went by zing.
A national treasure.
"The next time we see you folks, it will be Monday night, August 30th... at 11:30".
Kind of like a final "up yours" to NBC for not giving him the Tonight Show.
Definitely the good old days 🙂
Thanks for posting this one:)
It was a great last show that will be 30 years ago on Sunday. You can find all of it elsewhere here on RUclips.
I have always thought Dave’s closing remarks were more eloquent here than on CBS, particularly the comment how they began on a cold day in February in 1982, and now here there were on a lovely summer evening in June eleven years later (a few minutes later he mentions that incoming Conan O’Brien once killed a guy.)
In all fairness, Dave's last words on CBS were introducing Foo Fighters.
You can tell Tom probably just got done filming ‘Philadelphia’ here.
Tom hanks wasn't America's father back then, he was only our cool uncle, Sam's brother
This appearance proves no guest ever better.
I wonder which Academy award Slappy was nominated for?
It doesn’t look like he was ever nominated for any. But I’m pretty confident you can get invited to the Oscars for any number of reasons besides personally being nominated for one.
Did anyone else go and watch the trailer for “Roustabout” after this and decide that they’ve got to see it?
Just for Barbara Stanwyck
No, definitely no. I had already seen it. I’m afraid Elvis didn’t make any decent movies, but it was in his contract.
@@fayedapiran5737 I didn’t say anything about it being good. I want to see it because it looks hilariously terrible.
It's so easy to love Tom❤
I’m with Tom on the cleavage thing!
Great intro music. Tie in to Sleepless in Seattle. Seattle home of grunge.
And here it is 2023, who would have expected Tom Hanks to become Mr. America....the embodiment of Mr. America?
Best TV Band in Bidness😂Yessssss!
Iconic moments in television....
YOU'RE BENDING THE SHAFTS!
Great appearance! Haven’t seen this one before.👍
Great Stuff!
Wasn't the Boss the last musical guest also?
Smells Like Teen Spirit? Nice one Paul :)
Tom Hanks introduced, and the band played Smells Like Teen Spirit. Wow.
I guess it was the Seattle "connection"..
This is BEFORE Forrest Gump. Put that in perspective!
What a gem!
Dave was on Conan's show only four times because, reportedly Conan kept bending the shaft.
Hey Dave!!!!
Tom hanks was really succesful before becoming really really succesful
love this
Dragnet is great! I don't care what you say Tom!
Tom was on !
Ahh Bob Saget!
Idk where to put in this request but can we get some Tracy Morgan interviews with Dave?
lol tom hanks turned in to forest gump on his shair story for a sec ptre gump gump lmfao
Nice of Tom to participate in a “Stump The Band” segment
8 o'clock on Sunday 🤣😭🤣🤣🤣👍
YOU'RE BENDING THE SHAFTS!!!
😮
Ironically in the future, Tom was to feature in a movie about Elvis.
You don’t say!
I stand with Tom. I too will not appear on the CBS's Letterman show! Take that, Mr. Shobiz. lol.
We didn't get to read the credits. Or even ignore them.
YA BENDIN THE SHAFTS!!!
STOP
BENDING
THE SHAFTS!!
Cool he paused before sitting and then senses Letterman wanting him to sit first, and then sits down
Wow looking at Tom Hanks.. Him and Neil Peart look like twins 😂😮❤
Especially later in life.. They really start looking alike 😂
If you do the math, this HAD to be taped right before Hanks won the Oscar for Philadelphia later that year and right before his filming of Forrest Gump.
Well, obviously.
This was taped in June 1993.
Filming for "Forrest Gump" began on August 27, 1993.
Tom Hanks won an Oscar for "Philadelphia" at the 66th Oscars in March 1994.
Also probably before he vacationed at a certain island....
One should take care to never bend the shaft
Everybody loves him.
Oh ive got it.! "Tim Mix'! Peter Griffin.😅.
My favourite Elvis movie is “Change of Habit”.
My man Tom hanks. That's what I am talking about
Tom has material!
@me I can't believe it's 30 years ago.
If he wanted, Tom could’ve been a great standup comic on the same level of Robin Williams.
Re gems, anyone recall a Dave live-cam (desk-to-street) interview w/a guy who opened his coat to show hanging watches he was hawking? Who has that on tape? What was the segment called? (Nbc? Cbs?early 90’s)
Wow, 30 years ago today! I was 26 😃
STOP BENDIN' THE SHAFTS!!!
Tom Hanks was en fuego.
You edited out Paul and the band going out to commercial to Heartbreak Hotel!
