Fan Request: Viewer Mail Shocker | Letterman



Fan Friday Request:
“Hi all,
I had my letter read on viewer mail on Late Night, in January of 1990 or 1991 (sorry…it’s been awhile.) Problem is I’ve never seen it! It even aired as a repeat, but I missed both airings. I’d really like to finally see it.

It was a letter about laundry, and using too much fabric softener. Apparently the response after Dave read it was laundry on a clothesline appeared from one of the buildings on the backdrop to the Psycho music, and they cut to Biff reacting in shock, with a Buckwheat wig on. At the time I was stationed at KI Sawyer AFB, MI, now long gone.
If you can find it, I’d be forever appreciative.
Mark D. Spivey”
(From “Late Night,” air date: 9/21/90)

Welcome to the Letterman YouTube 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.
