  • Wow. Letterman's a douche

  • BTW I meant him in real life

  • Is it just me, or is he EXACTLY like George Mcfly

  • I love Letterman. Glover is great too. This is as it should be.

  • Mr Andy Kaufman's gone wrestling yeah yeah yeah yeah

  • Regardless of what you feel about Letterman, you have to admit that there is no other show on television that would allow stuff like this to happen. It's a tremendously influential and groundbreaking show.

  • Letterman is letterman. Its a tv character thats been popular for a long time, and believe it or not, whether you like letterman or not... he's on the air, making money. And youre not.

    Crispin glover is interesting and funny... sorta... but no more interesting or funnier than a handful of people i know. he is a character actor. bfd. not exactly astoundingly talented. beats michael rappaport though.

  • and, crispin wins either way. Either he gets promoted, or he gets promoted. Brilliant.

  • i love that they played "Kung Fu Fighting".

    and I love crispin. sheer genius.

  • Anyone else get a Tom Green vibe? Fucking genius! >.<

  • @EMFHAGAA I am guessing you meant to say geniuses, as opposed to your hilarious misspelling of the word. As if that wasn't enough, you continued with an entire string of grammatical errors. Talk about irony! Classic stuff, right there. Your concentration camp comment only serves to further define your sad condition. Thank you for contributing something to the internet that will forever stand as a monument to your ignorance.

  • The tradition of the the whole 'roast' you can more or less tell someone to go f*ck themselves as long as you say they are a good sport at the end of it. Its true letterman is a complete wanker. There was never a moment when he was really going to not mock anything Crispin Glover had to say. Although was Glover actually nervous that time or still acting? However there is one thing we can be sure of....Crispin Glover is a strange man.

  • wow crispin glover wasn't acting in BTTF! haha. amazing

  • I love Crispin Glover. I saw him live in September, and he certainly does love to make people think. I say that in complete love <3

  • He's a terrific actor, but a weird person. He has a collection of eyeballs!!

  • What a cruel thing to do, to mock and exploit someone who simply needed assistance. Hey, Dave, why not parade some mentally or physically challenged children, and write it into a skit?

    Oh, that's right... you're too busy boffing your t.v. interns, so you probably don't have the time. But isn't amazing that you had the time to turn that innocent little topic into laughs during a monologue?

    We hope you exchange that icecube for a heart someday. You can afford it and learn from it.

  • He looks so much like Mario Gomez

  • Crispin Glover is a true artist,he never gives an inch and is easily one of the strangest motherfuckers out there.

  • Letterman is only nice to people that kiss his as and give him a hand job before going on.

  • Was he trying to tell us that the guy in the previous interview was, in fact, his look-alike?

  • get ova the kick fuckhead lettermen i wish Crispin did kick ur head in 1987 interview, he was in character at the time clearly lettermen had a dick in his brain that he couldnt just laugh about it,,,, Crispin = Legend <3

  • nice come-back with kung-fu fighting as an intro song... watch the interview from 1987 :)

  • I would *love* to see Crispin Glover do a late-night talk show, Letterman! *That's* a great idea!!

  • Letterman : "were making fun of you at will, you're an awfully good sport" That pissed me off...Letterman is an ass.

  • For a comedian, Letterman really doesn't recognize comedy when he sees it.

  • Letterman is such a tool.

  • wtf @ his video...CG is the man but that was weird

  • How irritating!

  • I thought that was going to be kind of stupid but it's not... AHAHAHAHA david Letterman's the shit tits.

  • "Well when you get your own show".....Asshole

  • i love dave. yeah, he may have been an asshole at times. who isn't? i see assholes every day, i work with some of them, see them on the internet........ they are every where. the only people that point out an asshole ...is an asshole.

  • If you don't get Letterman's depth of comedy, you need to mine youtube for his interviews with cher, or especially with Andy Kaufman. If you are a comedian yourself, it's very obvious that Letterman is ALWAYS in character.

  • I swear, every time he's on the show he runs laps around Letterman.

  • Letterman has always been a prick. This guy took a gamble and tried an Andy Kaufman type bit and crashed and burned. He paid a price but Letterman STILL had him back on just for revenge to try to make him look like a prick. We all know who the real prick is.

  • @Drednots go watch leno then loser. letterman is brilliant.

  • @zigzagbigbag no he's not

  • @lewiske Letterman in the 80's? Brilliant!

  • @zigzagbigbag In the 80s, yes--you have me there. I actually liked the guy in those days. I guess I just grew out of him. I know there's lots of factors to explain why he's not the same as he was, but at this point it really doesn't make any difference. I haven't knowingly watched his show--or anyone else's, for that matter-- since his earlydays at CBS. Just my two cents.

  • @lewiske I must admit I havent watched much of the CBS shows. But those NBC days were very funny. I loved when Dave had Brother Theodore on and Chris Elliot was great too.

  • what a fucking douche. Crispin was just explaining you asshole.

  • Crispin Glover's got his shit down pat. I bet as soon as he leaves the TV set he becomes Keyser Soze.

  • i found crispen funnier than letterman LOL

  • The only talk show host I've ever liked is Conan...and I LOVE Conan. Although the Crispin Glover interview I've seen on his show from 2003 is actually quite boring, something I would not expect.

  • Letterman is clearly a cunt, always has been, and most likely always will be.

    He should stick to banging interns over a warm photocopier, his old man long balls thwacking on the paper tray, while his kid is asleep back at the house.

  • @defjam99b someone hate s their life an d needs to grow up!!!! (you) if someone is doing nothig against you...why do u harbor anger??? where does it come from? do u honestly think it stems an east coast middle aged man putting on a successful variety show??? probably not! 8 likes? les miserable....grow up!

  • @dawnatilla You make a lot of assumption for an anonymous YouTube commenting cunt. Letterman is a tired-out, sexist hack. A bigot and misogynist, a creep, a lost sell-out that his younger self would despise. That anyone with any integrity or self-respect would despise.

    Your sanctimonious defense of an artless, shallow, hateful liar, a pathetic cheat, a fading celeb-pimp and his pointless, vacuous redundant variety TV show is quite an embarrassment ... Letterman is a cunt, and so are you.

  • @defjam99b Letterman Kicksass!

  • @defjam99b I can understand you think hes asswhole completly agree with you, but hes not a cunt

  • @MrUSAJAY

    Agreed. Jay Leno on the other hand is a TOTAL kiss ass. Easily the worst late night host around.

    Conan's hilarious, or was in his earlier days, yet Letterman has grown soft.

  • Glover looks spookily like Mr Bennett from Take Hart!

  • What the heck is the guy talking about. Something about an eclipse? Where was he going with that?

  • How many weeks of vacation does Letterman get a year. Every time you tune in it's a repeat. After all his disputes &\ remarks about Jay Leno I quit watching him after 20 years. Arrogant asshole.

  • and at 5:30 Letterman figures it all out. lol. What a muppet! :) <3

  • Wow he's talking about the ascension and the meaning of life. Can't beleive back then only 10 knew about it!

  • hèy_ÄÑYÔnë_wÂnNà_chÁt_wîth_mÉ_­î_fÉÈl_só_lÔNêlý_tØDÁY♀

  • He's only been on this show 3 times right?

  • performance art

  • this is just epic......a video with no audio! way to post shit!

  • LMAO gotta love how crazy Glover is LOL.

  • what is glovers problem???is he high???

  • Yea, why is Letterman still on TV? He has always been mean or sexually inappropriate. I'm not surprised it turned out he had several affairs.

  • pice-O-crap letterman! ''maybe your right about the record!'' dumbass..

  • It's funny....all these comments trashing Dave saying that he disrespected Crispin, are too funny! Does not one of you people actually realize that it's called a PRE-INTERVIEW? This was entirely set up before hand.....

  • Is it me? Or is Crispin acting like Jimbo the Dead Fuck from Friday The 13th Part 4?

  • Fuck letterman that guy is a bad person

  • I would not be anywhere near as nice to him as Dave. Crispin is a very frustating person to listen to and interview.

  • Crispin Glover is a terrible actor.

  • @2allinone5 Maybe You're An Asshole....

  • Crispin Glover is a terrible actor.

  • In 1978 there was an eclipse of the sun

  • This guy was actually ahead of his time, if you think about it. That video was a lot deeper than Dave gave credit for.

  • @Sqrmincoil Explain.

  • Damn, poor Crispin.......I was a David Letterman fan, BUT i think he's i really the big asshole how he disrespected Crispin, as well as Madonna.....

  • I met Letterman at the 2007 Indy 500. He stank of ball sweat.

  • Comment removed

  • crispin really reminds me of dwight frye in this interview. i guess its the hair.

  • I'm 27 now, and when I was a kid I never understood why David Letterman was funny. I thought that when I grew up, I would understand the show better.

    I was wrong.

    David Letterman always comes off looking like an a**hole. And he does it so effortlessly. Why do people like him and his show? I just don't get it. Can someone please explain?

    I try to watch, wanting to enjoy the show.But Letterman seems to have just 2 modes:

    Mode 1= Asshole , and Mode 2= Sleaze

    Is it a generational thing or what?

  • @drgdrf You can stop copying and pasting other people's comments just to get them thumbs'd up.

    Are you really that unoriginal?

  • i want Crispin to call me! D:

  • its like hes japped up on some blow, jeezus!

  • not a fan of letterman

  • i'm watchin this before the 87 incident ,i guess im kinda going back in time ;p

  • that music video was terrifying lol!

  • I don't understand why people rave about Letterman at all. Obviously he's very successful but i can't see why. I don't find him funny or likable in any way at all. He just seems like a self-satisfied jerk. It seems to me he sees himself as more important than anyone he interviews.

    Crispin Glover is one of the most under-rated actors around. Granted, he only seems to play wierdos but they're some of the most under-rated wierdos around.

  • @leetwentythree

    Hear, hear!

    Glover, no matter what he does it's always intriguing. Letterman as always just manages to irritate the shit out of me, excuse my language.

  • @leetwentythree being the most emmy-nominated performer ever, I think you just dont get Davids humour.

  • @leetwentythree glover is an ass

  • @leetwentythree I hate to remind you all that he was in "Epic Movie," a Seltzer and Friedberg movie.

  • Comment removed

  • @leetwentythree This comment is one of the very, extremely few comments written on youtube that I think are actually smart and totally true. I a 100% agree with you

  • He is totally staying in character as George Mcfly just like he did when he was there in 87, for another movie.

  • Letterman is obviously trying to keep his show together but he seems a little bit out of hs depth

  • David's such a jerk, he interrupted and ended the discussion right at the exact moment Crispin was going to say he was appearing as Rubin on the show as a sendup to the character.

  • I love Crispin, he's a wonderful actor.

  • I've playied this section many times but cant quite grasp what letterman said at 5:47- something and funny to hear..

  • @ocapana he says: "you're an awfully good sport, i mean that, [i'm] just making fun of you here at will."

  • @CheapRobot: thanks man.

  • Letterman overreacted here, again. Glover first appearence on the show was an attempt to make a performance, of course letterman knew it. He suffered no actual risk of injury then. Now he took a chance to beat up the guy as much as he could for that. Sight.

  • This is surrealist gold.

  • GEEZ Crispin is dorky, but Letterman is just a bit mean... And I'm a Letterman fan, but he needs to let the poor guy talk...

  • He's like the Riddler.... wait a minute.

  • Crispin seems like such an obnoxious guy. After behaving like a total dick on Letterman's show in the past he decides to come on this time, fail to provide an explanation for the way he acted and intentionally derail the discussion to force letterman to move onto his record or suffer car crash TV.

    Letterman was totally justified in being rude to this guy because he was doing much the same albeit with more subtlety.

  • @gunslingernz you are stupid, he was playing a character from a movie called rubin and ed. It was an act.

  • @MultiBert87 Obviously letterman hadn't seen the movie and neither have I. The point still stands that he was being an asshole though because he could have avoided all of it simply by explaining that he had been playing a character from one of his movies in the previous interview.

    The guy is just a dick.

  • @gunslingernz haha, yeah think whatever you want. You must be a letteman fan; he can dish out jokes but when someone toys around with him he gets upset like a little kid.

  • Letterman is an asshole.

  • @AediaK No he's a cunt

  • I wanna kick Letterman in the head

  • @AediaK tell us something we don't know

  • @AediaK

    Just can't deal with Glover.

  • @AediaK that's kinda why I love him

    glover's just a retard with an ego

  • Lmao he reminds me of this kid named Kirk in my art class. Total fucking weirdo, Once given the name Kirk being weird is definite.

  • jingle dell 

  • Is that George McFly?

  • @Webbula yea

  • Crispin Glover is just the weirdest dude ever...

  • @MegaSupaFine superhuman intelligence though

  • @MegaSupaFine He is stranger than a three dollar bill for god's sake..

  • That clown video is one of the trippiest and weirdest things I've seen.

  • I REALLY want to know what's wrong with this guy. (Crispin)

  • Glover appeared in character as "Rubin", from a then-unreleased movie "Rubin and Ed", wearing the same clothes, platform shoes and a wig from the film. The reason for the confusion: Letterman interview - 1987; release of "Rubin and Ed" - 1991, four years later...

  • . . . it has been a few years and yet David is still not funny / cannot understand a joke.Crispin remembers, it's David who wants to forget because deep down inside he knows that he should have been kicked in the head by Crispin in order to knock the funny into him.Well, at least David played a snippet of Crispin's amazing video even though he didn't get it.So he poked fun, but not in an intelligent way.What does David do when he sees a Bosch and "doesn't get it"?And David went to college?Hhhmm

  • Yeah, Letterman is a prick

  • I can't imagine why anyone would want to kick Letterman in the head.

  • I wish he actually kicked him back then and knocked his fucking teeth out! Letterman, you piece of shit I hope you die in a fire!

  • what a dick brain letterman is

  • Whoa that guy is pretty weird

    That video was sketch as fuck, he lives in his own little world

  • you need to be an insomniac to be able to stay awake when this guy gets going

  • @sparklebucket I AM an insomniac. That's why I love listening to his speeches. :D

  • @sparklebucket

    Who, letterman? Yeah, he's pretty white-bread.

  • If someone tries to kick you, don't let him back on your show. And if you REALLY must let him on your show, don't give him good reason to kick you again by acting like a total prick.

  • man, i feel bad for him haha. Dave was a mega doucher to him. Not cool

  • LETTERMAN CAN GO SUGGITTTTT.

  • Man! I can't believe Crispin took David's shit for so long, especially after that soccer punch by Dave at the end. Moreover, I'm surprised that Dave made a public ass outta himself on national television. Hopefully he is embarassed for that now.

  • Comment removed

  • Glover should have tried to kick Dave again.

  • I love how they used "Kung Fu Fighting" as his entry music.

    Crispin Glover rules.

  • wow, letterman is such a dickhead

  • If Letterman really disliked the guy he wouldnt keep inviting him back. It's a set up joke by both of them.

  • i happen to like crispin glover for his sheer capability of getting work.  its clear his mind move very fast and thats what it takes to be famous. John lynch is a god. crispin Glover, he is proof that one can earn fame out of sheer determination. that said, everyone loves willard, even if they dont realize it

  • i wrote the music to this song and helped make the video. do you care?

  • @artiebarnes

    Not in the least....you'd have to be a crackhead by now then too, apparently

  • I was walking on the ground, i didn't make a sound and i turned around and i saw a clown. Had a frown, stood on a mound, she's a clowny clown clown CLOWN? That is fucking hilarious!!

  • Crispin Glover is a fuckin' wacko, and David Letterman is as reasonable and appropriate with him as possible. Glover was rambling and taking forever to explain why he was a total wack job during his first appearance (which I remember when it originally aired) and he just wasn't explaining it. It's become clear that Glover is just a wack job.

  • 0:01 - 7:01 Huh? What's with the audio guy?

  • Crispin glover

  • Letterman is a real cunt with Crispin. What's he so frightened of...?

  • Crispin Glover is so cool. He's brillian t yo

  • letterman is a dick.

  • This guy should be the riddler in batman 3!

  • to be honnest if i lived back then the whole political thing wouldn't have been there like these days, i may have laughed these days i defiantly say Letterman was being a fagget

  • Crispin Glover is so cool and awesome

  • Remember folks, it's all entertainment. If Glover was p.o., he would've never came back on Dave's show. Glover seems eccentric, but he's one hell of an actor. They are playing here. Calm down lol! Also, Ive been watching Daves show since the mid-80s and hes built his show on being a smug asshole. Thats the gist of the show for those who havent a clue. Remember, Daves show in any form is a host thats a smug asshole. Hang onto that and youll understand the show.

  • Letterman was Crispin's bitch

  • I like Letterman but I don't like him here. Crispin is the man.

  • clowny clown clown is awesome.

  • letterman is such a prick fuck that guy

  • 3 years later... this just shows what a vengeful, angry person letterman is(not surprising, he still hates on leno lol). he realizes he's not nearly as intelligent as crispin and couldn't stand up to him in a true battle of wits, so he resorts to insults and cheap cracks to get laughs from his even more unintelligent audience lol....

    and crispin, always the genius, smiles politely and takes it, realizing it will only serve to make letterman even more angry lol.....

  • lettermans such a douche.

  • LMAO!!!! When the video comes up holy shit that was amazing

  • very funny stuff, Glover didn't even bother to be mildly accommodating, he just made David Letterman run around the interview like a 10 year old. Is Crispin Glover ever out of character on any interview though?

  • @GNH1934

    he's only out of character when he deals with intelligent hosts. check out his appearances on conan, you won't believe the difference in how he interacts with someone when he respects them as an intelligent individual...

    but when he knows he's dealing with a slow idiot like letterman, we get comedic magic lol....

  • in crispin's first appearance after the "kick" he asked letterman if he found that interview interesting, and letterman said "no." if that's the case, why is this douchebag still obsessing about it YEARS later????? LMFAO

  • Glover owned this interview! Want to make Letterman uncomfortable and piss him off all at the same time? Bring up the Tonight Show! Brilliant, Glover, just brilliant! Letterman is a truly pathetic POS who I have never thought was funny and I hope he chokes on his own ego.

  • Glover is a genius!

  • David Letterman is such an unbearable, unfunny, predictable, boring, disrespectful, arrogant, fake, patronising, cunt.

    Probably the reason why he got the job.

  • Letterman really disrespected Glover in this interview. I'm not impressed.

  • someone should take a fully loaded shotgun and shoot david letterman in the face!! he is just a fuckin asshole.. cheap shite.

  • I love when Letterman thinks he's making fun of people; when it's always the other way around

  • I very much enjoyed the audio on this video.

  • @eggbertsmith amazing quality, isn't it?

  • I hate Letterman, he's such a jerk.

  • Crispin Glover is the best troll I have ever seen; his skills are god tier!

  • true, not many people were trolling before the internet
