  • Fan Friday Request:
    "Hi there,
    Until this episode (sometime in the early/mid-90s?) I'd never realized that the late night shows had a standby audience hoping to get in and otherwise settling for watching the taping on monitors in the lobby. Dave highlighted them on the show and decided to do something special for them. They ended up all going to the GAP to get matching outfits! There might have been more to their mini-adventure, but I remember how happy they looked and grinning about how goofy and wholesome the whole thing was. We could always use more goofy and wholesome these days - any chance we could see it again?
    Thank you so much!
    Brian J, Maplewood NJ"

    I miss this show so much . There was always something crazy funny going on. No matter who it was that was being interviewed Dave always came across as a genuine nice guy, the kind of guy you would love to have as a neighbor

    I love how Dave took a shine to Tom right away. Musta reminded him of his high school PE teacher or something.

    No one is commenting on the United Airlines commercial snippet.
    Remember airplanes before 9-11?
    Food??
    Reservation encouraged but not required??
    Chair that went back for than an inch??
    Business men wearing suits???
    Another world indeed.

    Someone here commented “I miss you Dave” and I have to say that I second that emotion.
    Edit: There will never be a better show on television, nor on the internet for that matter, no better presenter either and no better sidekicks than Schaefer and Henderson either. These guys mastered the KISS principle - my personal motto - they understood that simplicity is bliss.

    Since he was about to host them in a couple of weeks (no need to explain how _that_ went), Dave could’ve gave the standby audience tickets to the Oscars instead!

      Although Dave told Tom he was in charge, I think it is very unlikely that Tom chose the outfit.

      My point is that Dave's "you're in charge" comment was just an off-hand remark he made on the spot, and not actually any kind of firm decision being made. I am sure the specific plan for how to handle that many people over a short time was already put into place long before that comment was made.

    If I were a part of that group, and saw Tom's taste in outfits, I'd have just called a cab and gone home.
