Amy Sedaris on The Late Show - January 6th, 2006 (Part 1/2)

[ScinLaeca358]

I don't get the "What's the date" and "Feels like a Monday" thing, must've been some joke from the monologue or something.

[mattypsaidso]

@ScinLaeca358 she show was probably filmed far ahead of time, on a monday, to be aired at a later date.

[jldissel]

Did anyone else recognize "Large French doors that lead to our large deck for entertaining"?

[ScinLaeca358]

@jldissel Yeah and she said that again on a recent appearance, except this time she'd seen it in an ad in the paper but it was a misprint and read "large dick for entertaining."

[TokedStokedMusic]

I love how she interviews him just as much as he interviews her

[debi22]

I feel bad listening to this..cos I feel I'm eavesdropping on a private conversation...lol...

[LoveQuiche]

they need their own show, just have amy on every night

[ManticoreL7]

"I'm a very busy woman. Women are busy people. I am a woman and I have needs, and so I've been busy being a woman! And you?" *picks lint off dress* LMAO! Love her.

[akadaka69]

hi barabra

[shwankym1a]

Does she have a bruise on her left arm? 

[Divinezoo]

I think she is a subversive Uber W.A.S.P.

[jaibhakti]

She is the funniest, most unpretentious person in the world. I would LOVE to see her and Craig Ferguson...he could book her for the entire show, and I bet she would have me laughing my @ss off the entire time! She is a riot! It must be SO incredibly refreshing for Letterman to have someone so real and fearless (comically speaking) on the show, like someone earlier commented--she's not worried about sitting perfectly in her dress...and she ALWAYS looked beautiful. What a sense of humor!!! :)

[CapitolWasteland]

"Woman are busy people." She forgot to add "because we're all fucking David Letterman."

[uliseslag]

I would love to get high with her. We could tell stories, make crafts, and play with her rabbit Dusky.

[gloomyoutlook]

Well done, Letterman! That promotion remark was spot on.

[cronoskronos]

What's the tune Paul plays when she walks out?

[LeDairyQueen]

@cronoskronos "A Girl Like You" by Edwyn Collins. Many people in the US know it from the movie "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle." Edwyn Collins was a one-hit wonder.

[goingwithzed]

Ive seen a fair amount of Dave over the last 25 years (!?!?) and I have _never_ seen someone interview him back and him be open and cool about it. Ya almost feel like it's old school carson or something.

[nailposh3]

she looks so beautiful and lively. so sick of actresses on these talk shows looking plucked and pulled within an inch of their life. can't even sit properly or talk properly because they're so concerned how the dress might look on camera.

[dovestones]

These two are funny together.

[dionysosin2012]

I love Amy so fucking much!

[Swatantra100]

She and her brother David are two of my favorite entertainers. One thing, though - she can really control a conversation. I mean if she goes off on a tangent, there is no way you'll ever get back to the point you were trying to make, or even remember what it was.

[momwentcrazy]

I don't think I could stand being in a relationship with her though. I'd be too dumb to know when she's joking or not. I'd think she was always making fun of me.

[modustheoperandi]

You do realize she's probably not like this all the time, right? It's called a persona.

[Tracking88]

Actually, I happen to know that she is like this pretty much all the time. I work in west village and she shops at the place I work very often. She is crazy, love her!

[walkintovelvet]

OMG, I am so jealous. I would kill to meet her just once.

[LunaonCrack]

why don't we go to the cape?

[robfearon]

I almost pee myself when she makes the firesign joke about being on fire.

[greg5566]

Wow, David absolutely loves her! No one has ever made him laugh as honestly and heartily as she does. He hasn't been this in love since Teri Garr, but Amy is way way more interesting and funny than Teri.

[mercatorblue]

nice louboutins, amy!

[whymustwe712]

Ha! i caught the red bottoms too!!! Amy's got good taste!!

[mercatorblue]

i know, she always wears the hottest shoes, I'm so jealous!

[downeroc]

how fitting.

the song playing in the beginning is "a girl like you".

never met a girl like you before!.

[whateverfloats]

How much caffeine can one little woman consume?!

[waynefoolx]

amy + dave = funny

[CusterFlux]

I LOVE it when Dave does the Amy Sedaris show, she does such a wonderful job interviewing HIM!

[forgelover]

That's exactly what I was going to say. And you can tell how happy he is to finally have someone interview HIM. He totally adores her.

[CusterFlux]

Yeah, it's impossible not to fall in love with this cookie: she does wonders for Letterman, I don't know about getting married - but they should've been lovers for a little while at least.

[CusterFlux]

"in 2009, we're gonna get a tuna - ??? for our Hobie Cat"?

What did she say?

And yes, her adorability could power a small solar system.

[Haliwells]

a tuna tower

[CusterFlux]

Thanks!

I'm a little surprised, I didn't think Hobie made a cat big enough to put a T.T. on it, but c'est la lie.

[mattypsaidso]

a tuna tower for our hobie cat or install french doors to lead out to a deck for entertaining!

[pegleg747]

Amy is such a breath of fresh air :) Quickest wit on the planet.

[pavane29]

She is my absolute favorite.  And she's adorable.

[pooleyjr]

Go ahead..

No you go...

so anyway...

Cracks me up every time

[armondpb]

@pooleyjr me to lol

[Dav68Chs]

'does the sun make noise?' Amy is hysterical. I love her; it would be hard to be around her and not laugh~even if you weren't in a good mood. Thanks for posting. (there's an episode from 2005 I believe, where she does a great 'nanny' impression...I wish someone could find that one)

[melab74]

love love love her.

[dv122]

i have a eyeball headache

[henryevilx]

Doesn't your girlfriend say, "Well why don't we go to the Cape?"

Best moment ever

[whymustwe712]

I know u commented a year ago but seriously... i died!!! that was hilarious!

[slikkyboy]

man...she looks like she's been working out. check out those arms!

[almalinda06]

she is shameless. i love watching her!

has anyone read what David wrote about her in Me Talk Pretty One Day?

[Tracking88]

no, what does he say?

[gor0356]

Whot the FUCK does he say?

[almalinda06]

he talks about how she loves to dress up, and one time she showed up to her dad's wearing the bottom half of a fat suit. apparently she's their dad's pride and joy because she's so pretty, so she totally broke his heart because he thought she had actually gained a shitload of weight, lol. apparently she wore the suit continuously throughout the visit, even though it chafed her legs. she only took it off at the very end. their dad was super happy lol

[justynaiscool]

that was my fave chapter from that book ;)

[geekoftexas]

What is the book called? I keep hearing about it.

[shootcocacola73]

I haven't read it yet! Tell me! :D I'm reading dress your family in corduroy and denim and next when you are in engulfed in flames

[donkids]

I love how dave introduced her.

[chelcbroadway]

looks like an oscar de lorenta dress..

[mabaggins]

I think she looks so cute when she just runs up to him and hugs him :D

[theboss4444]

Look at them legs and pumps...she needs afoot rub so bad

[longstockings666]

i like how she starts to interview him!

[megalisstudio]

she is the best

[macco360]

these two want to bang so bad

[pleasance]

hahaha that's exactly what I feel watching the two of them interact. They've probably banged before...

[tnargtnarud]

The audience seemed alright.

[garzaeduardo]

it's not the audience, it's called bombing.

[DeemerRed]

The audience was so dead this time! Usually Amy has the audience in stitches but she was getting no love in this appearance.

[emily51805]

i love how she got him to be honest.

[heyman87109]

Sorry, I don't get it. I love David Sedaris, but I couldn't get through three minutes of her frantic hair flipping. It's cool that Letterman opens up with her, but I just can't take it.

[duckpower90]

it just means that you have no soul

[heyman87109]

I doubt that, but thanks for your creative take. I just don't find her nearly as talented as her brother, and a spell more annoying. Kinda like you!

[scatterbrainedfloozy]

"It's a secret club!"

[perpetuummobile666]

Super cute with gorgeous LEGS!!!!!!

[cwecub]

she's a doll! and damn funny! her and her bro are great!!

[velvetviolette]

Amy Sedaris is the only female guest whom Dave cannot make giggle uncomfortably. GO AMY!!  Love that chipmunk banter.

[maggiemotta]

I love when she's on Letterman. It's great because they both just talk to each other so easily and love each other's company. It is very refreshing.

[mlex2311]

check out kimmel autos too

[Lovetupp]

I LOVE AMY!! lol

Anyone know where I can find the Other David Letterman interviews with her! esp the one witht he BIG BIG dress! lol

msg me Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!

THANKS! <3

[mlex2311]

check out 'kimmel autos too'....genius

[STEWIEADDICT3594]

amy sedaris... lol ur the best for those of u who havent seen much of her check out running w/ sizzors

[maggiemotta]

Amy Sedaris was not in Running with Scissors. I think you're thinking of Kristin Chenoweth who looks a lot like Amy.

[mraurora]

She wasn't in that.

[SiLlyGoOse4321]

shes the best...she gonna be on letterman tonight actually...if stupid toby maguire doesnt show up..she always has dave's back when he is short a guest.

[ruleraddison]

She is so fucking great. "Ambitious in my own way... with pipecleaners."

[shizay74x]

she's adorable and so funny! Her bra strap was showing... thank god she fixed it, her mom would be rolling in her ashes if she hadn't. Long live Amy & David & all the Sedaris kids!

[gsotoaz]

i LOVE Amy Sedaris...this woman is comic genius

[scatterbrainedfloozy]

she should be on tv like always!

she's a genius.

[undersolo]

She could eat Letterman alive.  Why doesn't she have her own show?

[HOWYOUDOIN884]

Actually you are quite wrong, but don't worry about just being a jackass for saying something rather quite silly.

[undersolo]

Glad that someone likes all things Amy. I met her at a film festival and she was incredible.

[possumossum]

quite exactly, rather

[waqarkhan1984]

she is not pretty smart

[angel48]

are you kidding me? you must be dumb if you don't think so.

[WheresMyPrize]

I love that she interviewed him haha.

[HOWYOUDOIN884]

Letterman really opened up to her... I love them both. I really want to date Amy. But I don't plan to marry her.

[Protean213]

Amy is a little much to handle, even for Dave :P

[ddc13120]

Amy is so funny...hillarious. She and Dave would make a great couple; David seems to really enjoy being around her. Amy needs her own show too!

[angel48]

ditto.

[wjddnek]

thanks for posting it lol
