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.

First And very funny! 😂
Second and industrial media is irrelevant
Nice to see the 'Sad Paul' painting getting the credit it deserves, hanging next to Gericault's 'The Raft of the Medusa' in the Louvre.
dave king of late night
Someone had fun painting "Sad Paul"
🎶
I'm laughing on the outside
Crying on the inside
'Cause I'm so in love with USDA Grade A ham!
Yeah baby!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
🎶
I love comedy when it doesn't work.
Sad Paul is even funnier peeking over the edge of Dave’s desk.
All of the Dutch people I know are very tall and broad shouldered. (It might be worth noting that I only know one couple and their three adult children.)
Even the bad Letterman clips are like gold!
This is my sister's letter. She was 19 and I was 22.
Haha, that's awesome! Did Margaret Keane paint the "Sad Paul" painting?
Does anyone own "Sad Paul"?
Are two of the Dutch Masters Steve O’Donnell and Jeff Martin?
That was some snarky Viewermail!!
The Sad Paul gag was very funny and touching. The classics will truly never fade away.
This video should be deleted
The most unfunny segment in history😊
Dearest David Letterman, My husband is in your fraternity. His friends love him but he hasn't talked to them in like forever. Please help him Facebook or call or whatever his friends. I love him and want him to be loved more. Sincerely, the Wife yip yip
I'm still waiting delivery of my "Sad Paul".
Dave loved jokes about ham.
I always felt a little sorry for Paul because he would try to be funny , but wasn’t, and I always thought Dave got annoyed. It WAS kind of annoying or embarrassing, even though I loved Paul🤷♀️
So much funnier at NBC than the show at CBS. Cheap, low budget humor, and gags that don't work, man, I laughed so hard.
uuoyckf…. lol.
This was the first time I ever saw David Letterman and that first letter solidified my years long enjoyment. Every time I think about the show I went back to that letter and here it is again. Immortalized.
I miss the early years of awkwardness. The CBS era was slick.
Haha it was the kind of awkward surreal that Adult Swim took to extremes.
This crowd stinks.
I love Paul, ❤️ he was always dependable. Stay all those years. Do they still make Schaeffer pens. 🤔
Ham inspector – No OFF position to the genius switch. 🥃🍻🧦
