Bonnie is so incredibly funny and quick witted. Thanks for the compilations. I used to love whenever she came on Dave's shows. I loved her mom stories.
I wonder why she didn't become a bigger star.
Thanks for taking the time to create Late Night clips for the world to enjoy Mr. Giller.
Good memories. 👍
Thanks!
Don, you are keeping alive some of the best television entertainment from years past in my opinion. Very enjoyable for viewers that were around when these shows were first broadcast and very much a needed relief from the intelligence insulting excrement being broadcast today. Thanks again, and keep the great content coming!
@@marktatum2592 Thanks again, but that last part is no longer doable for the foreseeable future.
Potential lawsuits?
@@marktatum2592 An agreement with a production company.
Bonnie Hunt is one of the funniest people ever. These compilations are a great reminder of that. Well done Don!
Nobody has ever heard of her.
@@TheKitchenerLeslie basement dweller? Moms-going to get tired of that
@@TheKitchenerLeslie Nobody's heard of her aka Kitchener Leslie
@@RideAcrossTheRiver HAH!?
@@TheKitchenerLeslie Did you sit on a curler, dearie?
Isn’t she just the best? You love to see someone who’s a constant source of fun and charm like her.
Nope. She never got anywhere.
@@TheKitchenerLeslie That’s not nice! She’s still memorable
@@Zamarae For what? Failure?
@JohnM. She was in alot of successful movies and is respected in the industry. Not a failure. Get some therapy for your insecurity issues, so you can reenter society as a decent, productive human being.
@@reneenordeen9447 what dumb chick thing to say
Hey @DonGiller! I threw out a request for a Bonnie Hunt compilation awhile ago. Just wanted to say THANK YOU! Your are a consummate editor! The amount of work you put into these is stunning. Thank you! (PS... don't let the nasty, unintelligent commenters get you down. You're providing a free service! You do a great job! Thanks for it!)
Thanks, Jeff!!
Just finished the next-to-the-last clip/appearance above.
I've watched many Letterman appearances on UA-cam (love the Teri Garr ones) and have NEVER been this angry before. He is so stinkin' rude to Bonnie with his constant interrupting and interjections that he thinks prove how quick and witty he is .... I now understand why Cher thought he'd been described as an anus by previous guests.
It was so bad you could see Bonnie's anger and temperature rising to dangerous levels, like she was seriously contemplating walking out on him.
I don't enjoy criticizing Letterman like this as I've watched hundreds of hours of his shows over the years. But Bonnie Hunt deserved far better treatment than this, she is so funny and talented ....
There! I just had to get that off my chest.
Thanks so much for compiling, editing, curating and posting this. All your Letterman videos are much appreciated, but this (and its sequels) is one I've been especially waiting for!
Thanks!
Thanks 😊
Why isn't she more famous than this???? She is so adorable! 3 greatest Letterman guests: Charles Grodan, Bonnie Hunt,( coincidence I guess) and Terry F'ing Garr!!!!
Because she was typecast as a "cute mom" type. Once an actress is in that box, there's no getting out unless/until she lucks into the "cute grandmom" type.
I'm in love with Bonnie Hunt. I had no idea she was so delightful. Obviously physically beautiful but, wow, that wit. I could never keep up with her but I like to image a world where I could.
Don - thank you so much for this. She's just the best guest and god those zingers are fast and furious. Incredible.
Love Bonnie! Such a great storyteller.
Bonnie Hunt is the QUEEN OF RETORTS AND REPARTEE.
Yeah...yeah...that''s what I meant to say. And you and I mean it. She was. Love it.
Had (have?) SUCH A CRUSH on Bonnie. What a complete delight. I'm shocked her first appearance was so late in Late Night's run. SUCH A CRUSH!!
I'd never heard of Bonnie until she showed up on Letterman talking about that Barbie dollhouse. I laughed my head off. Whenever she was a guest thereafter, I watched. Thanks for putting together this compilation, wonderful comedy during this bleak winter!
If you can make Dave laugh like she does, he'll produce your shows. Bonnie is so awesome at improv.
This is great. Been outa the country since 98 but this is my America the one I knew, somehow captured it here on You Tube . Nostalgia like the definition from Mad Men. Thank You.
Seems to me that Bonnie Hunt should have become a bigger "star". Supremely talented, easy on the eyes, but maybe ahead of her time. She straddled the line between stand-up and sketch comedy in an era when neither was really booming, and they never found her quite the right sitcom to best showcase her, let alone make her a household name. Comedy people know her, at least back then they did, but I fear she's largely forgotten now, especially among the younger folk.
Came here from the "red one" trailer. Goddamn, I love bonnie hunt!
it's funny looking back at all these women that were in their 30s and 40s when I was a kid. didn't think much of them then but now that I'm an adult I have to say Bonnie is very attractive. Her sense of humor definitely helps with that.
Bonnie Hunt is terrific...Always.
I loved the show that Bonnie had. Sure do wish it lasted longer.
Thanks, Don!!!!!! Seeing these gems from the past with Bonnie has kindled very fond memories of her and Dave!!! Terri Garr, Cher, and Julia Roberts with Dave also bring fond memories to mind. Being from Chicago, I bond immediately with Bonnie!!! Nice going!!!
Wow, this is so great. Bonnie is just cool as a cucumber for her first appearance and of course Dave loved her as a freuqent guest. Ah, those were the days.
Hello Lucinda, How are you doing today?
Thanks so much for putting these collections together. Lots of great memories.
You can tell she has second city experience; great timing and very funny.
Thanks once again Don. Bonnie is an absolute scream. Cute, funny, smart and charming. I knew of her but never realized how funny she is.
She's great..so genuine and likeable...I remember a couple of these...a little
No one better than Bonnie.
U ain’t lying brother she’s the best
She's so well grounded, coming from a good family tends to do that for a person! I love this woman!
Miss her more than any celebrity.
I believe she does mostly voice acting these days.
These compilations are quite flawless. I watch video daily like everybody, and hover over the quick-forward buttons out of habit, but your videos I just let run! Never have to skip any seconds ever, so seamless and you include everything! The best. Blue ribbon content.
Wow. Thanks!!
@@dongiller Any chance you have that Shakespear's Sister performance that is referenced in the second appearance? I totally forgot about them but it would but it would be cool to see a one hit wonder that I liked from back then. I love these uploads, thanks so much!
cut here I have every show. And thanks!
That's amazing! I'd love to see that SS performance if you have a chance. Also, a R.E.M. compilation would be incredible! Thank you again for these, they bring back a lot of good memories, I'd love to see the the NBC stuff officially released on Peacock or somewhere.
cut here In time. Highly doubtful Peacock will ever include Dave’s LN in its roster.
Did Dave have a bigger crush on anyone than Teri Garr? Yes. Bonnie Hunt.
I love Garr & Hunt.........lovely & humorous women...
I remember seeing her on Dave a couple times. Love watching this compilation. Good memories of simpler times!
Thank you for this! You're brilliant.
She was lightning fast and razor sharp. God, I forgot how funny she was./ is.
Sexy as hell too
I know, there are very few that are as funny as she is.
Bonnie is the one you “marry”
Well, or the one you befriend... if you're capable of that ;)
Among other things--right DAVE?
She’s so adorable and funny. And what is he whispering to her every time she comes out?? How much I miss this show!!!
She's always prepared with a story or anecdote. Dave must have really appreciated that.
god Dave just loves her, she's so quick, absolutely love her.. she really did well, actors love her, and it paid off, I think Dave helped a bit, not that she wouldnt have made it anyway...
thanks for putting these together, great guest, bonnie's very funny. dave hitting the bottle more around 1995, you can really see a change in him. two mid westerners clicking pretty good, that chicago accent reminds me of a girlfriend i had. not a chicagoan, but a sox fan by way of family.
Dave stopped “hitting the bottle” in around 1980. He hasn’t touched it since.
@@dongiller then what explains his boorish behavior in those 1995 clips?
tomitstube One has to first accept your premise.
@@dongiller you don't see it then?
tomitstube I shy away from remote armchair analyses.
You can generally tell that Dave is interested and cares about her as a person.
WHEW... I immediately googled Bonnie Hunt dead.. You always get me like that Don. I always thought she was so cute.
Same here! I've always liked her and was so worried! Love her wit, and great chemistry with Dave.
Yes Andy as long as she lives you still might have a chance....lol....
Had a minor crush on her but never saw her on Late Nite. Falling all over again.
I can think of few first-time guests that had as big an impact on Dave.
In terms of the women, he top 5 are
5. Amy Sedaris
4. Cher
3. Bonnie Hunt
2. Terri Garr
1. Julia Roberts
Do you agree?
You can see the moment when Bonnie became a favorite of Dave's- the delight in Dave's face at 5:11 after Bonnie said she wasn't interested in talking about her movie. Dave hated all that Hollywood stuff.
@@JayCity10 I'm amazed Kitchener Leslie didn't make the list
She made Dave laughs every time she's on the show.
He liked her so much he brought her into the Worldwide Pants family and produced (I think) her first two self-sitcoms, The Building and Bonnie.
Underrated except but those that know and love Bonnie!
She always seemed like she was mature, cool and fun to be around
Damn! I did not know Bonnie Hunt was this funny!
Thanks for introducing me to this hilarious woman
Loved her old daytime talk show.
Love her! She’s the best.
@ Don Giller... "..Y-E-S..!!!" (yelled out-loud, as Marv Albert would shout it) ..THANK YOU, DON ! ..I havent even seen one second of your Bonnie Hunt compilation yet, but -- after viewing 3 or 4 of her appearances on other sites -- I kept wishing you would begin and complete a collection of all her appearances.. ..but, I figured it would be too time-consuming....so, I didnt ask.. ..I cant wait to see if she's similar to Amy Sedaris: never boring ! 😉 ..if Bonnie is as great a guest as I think she is, this collection will rival Teri Garr, Sandra Bernhard, Meg Parsont, and your Mary Connelly ("Connie Plesco") collections ! 😁 ..THANKS AGAIN, DON ! 😁 ..now, I'm going to dig right into your Bonnie Hunt series ! 😎
Helpful hint : to avoid having the text lined out, don't use a double dash symbol on each end. (from my experience)
Does anyone know what happened to this brand of famous person?
In all television and movies, there are only two people I would invite into my home. Bonnie Hunt is one of them.
And Frank Stallone?
Anyone else think their chemistry exceeds even that of Dave and Teri's?
how dare you
Dave is in love with Bonnie just as much as I am.
They dated actually.
Always had a crush...still do. Thanks.
She is one of my favorite Hollywoodiennes.
Good Chi town roots....love her.
Bonnie was Daves one and true showbiz love. She makes Terri Garr look like a box of matches!
You are so wrong about Teri Garr. An all-time great guest on Letterman, Teri was sharp, witty and attractive.
We grew up in the same neighborhood in Chicago. I knew a couple of her older brothers. I must have seen her at some point.
BONNIE WROTE PRODUCED AND PLAYED IN MOVIE ....
RETURN TO ME
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 !!!
i have always liked her work
What a fun guest.
fun to see the arc of their on camera relationship, from that first guest spot thru the early cbs days. I know it can be easy to think that what you see on tv is representative of real life, when it's usually not the case. but w/these two making the conversation look so easy, so often, plus w/dave's production company involved w/her tv career... it sure did seem like she was a fave of his.
Bonnie in the green Mile, so so gorgeous. 💞🇬🇧🏴
She got younger and hotter from 92 to 95.
I miss this actress.
The late Christopher Hitchens said that with rare exceptions women aren't funny. I know it sounds terribly sexist and his comments caused a big uproar, but he had an interesting point about them not needing to be funny; it was the guy's job to develop a sense of humour in order to woo a beautiful woman. Anyway, Bonnie Hunt is an exception. She's laugh-out-loud funny and sort of reminds me of Amy Sedaris. It sounds like Bonnie grew up in a family environment similar to Amy. Another great find, Don Giller. Thank you.
Hitchens could be an idiot at times. This was one of them.
@@dongiller Maybe true that. When you come to think of it, there aren't many men who are funny. But to your point, identifying funny people is subjective.
Dave: Now what does that mean - an executive?
Bonnie: Just a guy in a suit 😋
1:07:48
Two nice Midwesterners (hilarious, too!)🤗😂
Am I the only one who thinks Dave rather fancied Bonnie? I always thought that if Murph weren't in the picture, they could have been a happy celebrity couple.
I would like to add that I added my comment early on, at the first clip of them together, and just now saw where he had her stand up next to him and declare that they would make such a handsome couple! I saw it first! Also, she's calling her husband John now, later on in this video - what happened to Murph?!
you can interview her underwater, in a bathroom, wherever and she'll be as entertaining and funny.
It’s odd that she just quit being on the show the last few years, wonder why. She was always funny.
Bonnie is hilarious!
BH: "Oh, god. They're going 'wooooo'"
DL: "I know."
I gotta get her shows on DVD.
So funny at 1:15:46
I noticed that Bonnie Never acknowledges the audience when Dave introduces her and she walks out. This time he practically forces her to wave at them. I wonder why she never did give a litte wave to the audience?
She is very witty, smart, fast funny. Upstages dave.
Bonnie didn’t like the audience applause for her _”movie with Dom”_ quip. I’ve always loved Bonnie and her wit and humor.
Underrated funny lady right here!
Love Bonnie!
Wow, I have never seen Dave walk over to the curtain to welcome and whisper in the air of a guest. What's up with that ❤😂
Sarcasm beauty.
How is it that you haven't released a compilation of Amy Sedaris' apearances?! Truly one of the funniest running guests and Dave obviously enjoyed her as well.
I would have loved to, and in fact had planned to. But after the Dave channel debuted in February 2022, I was no longer able to upload additional Dave-owned or -licensed content.
But at least my channel remains intact.
Epitome of lovely
I got kinda excited about seeing the flying dogs. :(
An amazing woman...
Excellent
Don- what's the name of the song at 8:36? I'm sure you'd know it if anyone did! Thanks for all your work by the way, never fails to entertain me :)
Man, it’s so recognizable, but I’m hitting a brick wall here.
And thanks!
One by U2
This only confirms the belief I have always had that Lettermen was the ultimate interviewer while Leno could do the best stand up.
Dave’s best guests are the ones that take over the interview. Bonnie was wonderful.
Question: Almost every segment as Bonnie walks on the set, Letterman meets her, bends over the back of her head and talks to her for maybe 3 or 4 seconds before seating her at her chair and then sitting in his own seat.
All this while the audience applauds and cheers.
Then later, when it's time to take a commercial break, he does the same thing all over again; only this time they remain seated as the camera pulls back and then rolls into the commercial.
So my question is, why does he do this every time, and what is he saying to Bonnie? He also did this when Teri Garr made her appearances on the show.
What does he say to them? Inquiring minds want to know ...
Where has she been lately? Seems like I just notice her doing voice over work. Always seemed to me that she was constantly just on the edge of being a massive star. She worked a lot during the 90s, even had her own show but I still think she never got quite where she should've.
"Guess again Chuck" -classic Dave
Don Giller ... methodically slicing and dicing the critics who've said Dave didn't appreciate the female comedic voice ;)
Oh man, Leonard Cohen. I'd really have liked to have seen that.
Same! Watching these collections have me wishing I'd been born a few years earlier and in the USA. I'd be introduced to so much talent. Thanks Don!
@@Here1o You probably know this, but Leonard Cohen is Canadian.
@@annabrewer8054 I know. But Letterman is American, which is what I was referring to. He had a lot of artists I would have loved to been introduced to at an earlier age.
Vrdd
She wears black a lot.
I'd love to hear what they say to each other when he greets her on the stage.
100 percent American woman. Funny, beautiful. Love her movies.
David wasn’t shy about his lust for Bonnie
