David Letterman in a rare acting role on Mork & Mindy

[flohthemachine]

damn i wanna tap that blond at the beginning

[Rixera]

Letterman was FINE back then o.O

[alienhuman]

Wow... Letterman was unlikeable way back then too.

[luf4rall]

he looks like preston from bangbros :)

[jhaul21]

daves like a pimp pusher shyster in this

[onemooners]

sounds like David Letterman

[mrsgritoli1]

Is that Wayne Knight (Newman) hiding behind the beard&glasses???

[berezin99]

Leon Spinks! That made me laugh out loud. 

[iammetcash]

oh Morgan was so smoking!! Still not bad.

[VillainessVixen]

Hey Robin Williams! Wow!

[tucsonia]

I love the riffing on 70's era encounter groups. A young Dave and the always great Tom Poston at their best.

But, based on some earlier posts I REALLY need it spelled out to me how Poston ever became to be a gay icon?

[2degucitas]

It's like an EST session, but so much better with Mork.

[grunt182820]

how can some toss called letterman

be a something ?

[mattybock]

i miss old nick at nite

[fahqmein]

Wow, Morgan Fairchild...yum.

[daddysevenpointfiver]

letterman plays the mole!

[teejate]

I remember watching this as a kid and thinking that the guy who played the guru stood out. What a TRIP to see it again.

[wheelinthesky300]

Why do I get the feeling this is the real David Letterman?

The one who bangs all those ugly chicks?

[JoelandtheBots]

I love these early Letterman clips, he's just so damn hot.

[Tzimnewman3]

LOL Losing your rolls royce is a concept, getting it back is a reality

[BulldoggeThe1st]

@Tzimnewman3 Antifa is an abbreviation for 'anti-fascist' you fuckin idiot. The point here is very simple - there is nothing cowardly about one man running away from 20. Generally speaking retreating when outnumbered is not regarded as cowardly since it is not a fair fight. This concept is obviously completely alien to you, or (more likely) you are just a biased antifa yourself who will try anything to score points.

[Tzimnewman3]

@BulldoggeThe1st LOL Losing your rolls royce is a concept, getting it back is a reality

[BulldoggeThe1st]

@Tzimnewman3 since you have decided to block me from you videos (and take away my right of reply coward) I will from now on speak to you elsewhere. It is quite amazing the way you people scream 'fascist!' and accuse others of intolerance when you yourselves show such disdain for open debate an freedom of speech.

[thehattedmusician]

That's Robin WIlliams! rofl.

[unincorporated1]

I loved this show... Does anyone know where I can watch episodes online?

[mrbillhicks]

Amazing that Williams went on to have a career after this....

[integgy95]

... It's good to see Dave Letterman hasn't changed in 30 years.. Still the same Pompus, arrogant asshole today as he was back then.. That's why your in last place in the ratings, Dave.

[KellyGreen5555]

You're nuts. Letterman is the King of Late Night.

[mavivirgie]

THE QUEEN OF LATE NIGHT

[chaddavidroberts]

Dam I loved Mork n Mindy. Ollllld skooooll

[sobuliak]

yup Dave being Dave one of the worst hated people in the industry.Morgan and pam were hot .I wish too that they did hardcore porn

[elc1960]

@sobuliak Closest thing to that is the movie where Morgan Fairchild played a TV reporter with a crazed stalker fan. She does a few nude scenes in it, including a nice shower scene. As far as I know, Pam Dawber never appeared nude anywhere.

[begoneyoubum]

I wish Pam Dawber did dirty porno movies!!

[tryithere]

I still don't know how he became big.

[kkat995]

Sit Down and SHUT Up

lol =]

[kkat995]

Sit down and SHUT UP

lol =]

[rcdESPANYOL4ever]

Steven Hyde from that 70s show=Letterman here lol

BRILLIANT LETTERMAN

[obdami]

Nice shirt Dave.

[LordBicen]

this isn't a rare acting role?! This is David Letterman being David Letterman.

Dickhead Extraordinaire.

[wicky1]

Crazy-cool medallion, Dave!

[CamiloSanchez1979]

David Letterman is a genius, he is the Dali of Late Night

[jcfbell3001]

pam dawber is just a gorgeous woman...i was so in love with her when i watched this as a kid LOL

[thfedexguy]

Tom Poston...an under-rated comic genius!

[PuffLippy06]

@thfedexguy I totally agree with you! Tom Poston was a genius.

[RRNYC1998]

Letterman is a douche bag

[cooldollie]

Omg, look at Dave and Robin Williams´hair! Nice role though!

[theeuprise]

david is a good actor!

[theeuprise]

you should really consider getting off the crack pipe, last thing we need is more crack heads taking jokes out of context... and please MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE! its been weeks since the always funny david letterman (the king of late night) made that hilarious joke that allot of lowlife, uptight crack heads with waaaayyyy too much time on theirs hands... :) took out of context. buddy, its fucking JULY, move on!

[theeuprise]

horrific remarks? he took 12 minutes to try to get all of you uptight crack heads (who take jokes out of context) to stop crying! and there's was no joke about rape! so smarten up! loosen up ! go to a yankee game get KNOCKED UP!

[Zenutheduck]

He lost no sponsors.

[booaia]

huh!? your remark clearly shows that you are a gullible idiot. i'm more afraid to leave my child to you than to letterman.

[bigbearballs]

Letterman was looking hot here!

[ccy2]

What a nice suit

[JStrange13]

I forget just how crazy hot Morgan Fairchild was. I want to bang her.

[asp5]

Yes, back in the 70s/early 80s she was the niftiest number around.

[ingibingi2000]

@JStrange13 still?

[Mymunkyrules]

Letterman is playing the role of Werner Erhard, leader of the est cult, now called landmark education.

[passiveMenis]

He was 31 - 35 years old here.

[vai82]

he was a brunette? and a hottie!

[petrino]

robin has a mullet... paul shafer had hair...and david letterman was not an old man... things has changed

[russellcroew]

Brick is the six million Dollar Man,....Six Million and one.

[ImAManOfMyWord]

Thats so funny, I just watched Letterman interview Willaims, before I clicked on this vid, not knowing Williams was in the show.

Fantastic stuff from Letterman. He could be a great TV actor.

[Laffingheimer]

Well, land's sakes! I always thought David had blond hair before he went gray on us.

[LeysinAmericanSchool]

My god, time does go by very fast.

[CreativeCritisizm]

yeah, I was in 5th grade & David Letterman looks like the Disco King, strange.

[mitts61]

Letterman downplays his talent but he could've been a perfect sitcom actor.

[wendi70]

Ahhh, Mork and Mindy. That was my absolute favorite tv show when I was a kid. I loved it so much that I had suspenders just like Mork. As a matter of fact, all of us kids did. We even went so far as to say, "Na nu, na nu" all of the time.

[CreativeCritisizm]

Did you have the AC/DC song "Night Prowler" ? might want to give it a listen if you haven't, cute little excerpt at the end & I won't tell you what it is until you heard it.

[mel3mel]

Is it just me, or does Letterman look just like Eric from "That 70s Show"?

[lookamoose]

you mean Hyde from that 70s show right?

[MrPrestoTV]

David Letterman was a pimp ass!

[slvr4surfer]

Robin Williams rocks

[jesuslovedjudah]

did dave do that rano nano skit? that shit was funny

[StrongHeartSoldier]

lol Dave is a great actor but he NEVER leaves his own stage (like he does here)

his hair is black! what year is this?

[HAFFNELSON]

1978 - first season.

[ASR10MAN]

Late Night is completely unwatchable now.Painfully unfunny!

The Chris Eliot years were funny.

[sineaddeburca]

I wonder if this was Letterman's audition for Late Night?

[Gnillob802]

Rainbow suspenders, leisure suits, Morgan Fairchild and Tom Post. Who knew that in 2008 they would all be taken as symbols for gay pride.

[TheJollyReprobate]

Tom Poston may have become a symbol of gay pride, but he still got to sleep with Suzanne Pleshette when he went home at night.

[Brainman94]

Morgan fairchild is indeed Gorgeious - but something I cant put my finger on turns me off!

But Pam Dawber - YEEEEEEEEEEAAHHH!

[FlamingoKicker]

Both Jay and Dave were lucky there was such a thing as a Talk Show.

[galaxyhigh73]

Was that George Wendt with the beard?

[FlamingoKicker]

I don't think so but he does look similar.

[RThornhill69]

I thought he might actually be the guy who played Otho in Beetlejuice. Probably not though.

[deesyphrr]

He played the part of one of those "EST" self improvment dopes.

[ebrock1]

He actually kind of sucked, didn't he?

[thomasandtanga]

David lettermen playing an Asshole Bastard. Thats a strech (LOL)

[Brainman94]

Here Here!

[gezortenplotz]

I didn't see this episode where they were making fun of the EST seminars. Wow. I'm old.

[paktype]

Wow, Morgan Fairchild has hardly aged in 30 years. The wonder of plastic surgery.

[prrolg]

You da man!!

[prrolg]

Morgan Fairchild was one of the most beautiful women ever in movies.

[SteelerJsun]

Paw Dawber was underrated as a hottie, in my opinion. As for Morgan...damn!

[krelbar]

She was cute. But Morgan Fairchild...YUM!!!

[OldBrownDesk]

you got it, man

[pipebender69]

Thanks debbie downer

[phizgp]

I like bourbon, too.

[yasminAnjum]

I have this ep on an old video somewhere. David & Robin look so young.........

[allstar919]

Dave's a decent actor.  Cool.

[MisterRivers]

@allstar919 He just seems like he's playing the same character he is on his show now!

[BubbaNo1]

This is great! Robin Williams and David Letterman, in the same clip, and so young!
