Another star wars or jaws or movies as popular as that. i may be wrong and maybe i m overstating the case. but i felt very sad as i was watching the final david letterman show the past couple of weeks. it s very sad about what we were losing. well, yeah. what is statistically true is that a hit on television today requires many many fewers viewers than a hit on television just ten years ago required. we re going to go to a break, but before we do i just want to show something from last night s show which was dave with kids. and this is actually stuff that i had forgotten. it was all new to me when i saw it. let s watch this as we go out. try and guess my favorite food. now, come on. come on just give it a try. here, i ll give you a hint all right? pie. try it. try and guess my favorite food. pie. note meat loaf. i want you you to hold it down at this end like that. ....
