It was very sweet of Dave to do a free promo for Olbermann's show.

[lob1]

1. Keith did a great job. K&R.

[LaPera]

2. Well done Keith & Dave.....

[Tx4obama]

3. K & R n/t

[Grassy Knoll]

4. As expected, Keith kills,....

and "big head todd"s " song is a great toon- Bitter Sweet

[DAMANgoldberg]

5. He is not holding back...

Very good writing on the Late Show's part! Rachel will come over this time next year!

[90-percent]

6. Jason Bateman

is good buddies with Keith - Keith loved Arrested Development, which he should have - it was great!

-jim

[ImNotTed]

7. No. 1 was even funny!

Recced

[avebury]

8. K&R

[Ninga]

9. Great stuff from Keith. kudos to Dave!

[indy legend]

10. And across America, Fox viewers are bitching about that damned "liberal media"

[The Wizard]

11. The F channel's reprieve is over

With Comcast holding sway over the MSNBC line up, Kieth will be the voice of reason holding the F channel's feet to the fire. Kudos to Al Gore for using his resources and the temerity to stand for reason and reality in the face of a well funded fascist takeover of the United States.

[JNelson6563]

12. Loved it!

Rock on Keith.

[progressoid]

13. Uh oh,

Keith is getting the same problem I'm getting. An expanding waist-line.

[xxqqqzme]

17. It appears so.

I always forget how tall he is.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

23. He eats when he's upset.

[progressoid]

52. Me too.

But my eating skills don't help me defeat my enemies.

[hootinholler]

14. He seems a little thicker in the middle than I remember. n/t

[Dutchmaster]

24. yeah, I was just going to say

he looks like he could stand to do a little cardio.

[spooky3]

27. maybe it's just me - he's always been a big guy IMHO, so he didn't look different to me.

[Bette Noir]

42. He broke his foot running a couple of months ago.

As long as he's healthy, I don't care what he looks like.

[peace frog]

34. Nice to see a celeb with a normal physique

He may appear to have a belly but given that the teevee adds 20 pounds he probably looks quite normal by our standards.

[hootinholler]

37. Considering I'm totally BUFF

That's Big Ugly Fat Fucker, I have no room to talk. I didn't mean anything bad, just making an observation.

-Hoot

[peace frog]

39. Oh heck yes! Observe away, hoot

I didn't take anything negative from your comment. I'm fairly BUFF myself, now that you mention it. ;)

[trud]

44. hey, he looks good.

too bad his taste in women runs to twenty-year olds.

[Greybnk48]

15. Keith & Dave, bravo! n/t

[Liberal_Dog]

16. K & R

[avaistheone1]

18. Cool

What a great sport!

k&r

[Love Bug]

19. Bwahahaha!

THat was brilliant! I wonder how much of a hand KO had in writing it. Heh. :smoke:

I follow KO on Twitter -- I'm a little afraid, now....:crazy:

Gotta love David Letterman! He never misses an opportunity to stick it to NBC. He'll never forgive them for choosing Jay Leno over him to replace Carson all those years ago.

[roxiejules]

20. K&R!

"It's the only show on television that is not a damn singing contest"

[wryter2000]

48. Hey!

Be fair. They have dancing contests, too. :)

[RoccoR5955]

21. K & R... Go get 'em Keith! n/t

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

22. Coincidentally, I bought a bigger TV last month.

Coincidence? I think not!

[Lars77]

33. I bought a Samsung Galaxy S to get that tweet. Biggest screen on the market! nt

[Boudica the Lyoness]

25. We watch Current TV now

and we wish Rachel was on there.

[ooglymoogly]

29. That just might happen.

Rachel needs more freedom from corporate media to tell the truth. Anyway we can hope.

[7wo7rees]

50. I agree, but I'd hate to see her sequested a la Amy Goodman

It seems all is well with the switchover for Keith, and I want Rach there too, but I can't help wondering: Is Current ever gonna be a player?

I'd love to give a free-range network like Current my business, and I do, but Amy Goodman has never been on cable, and even if she jumps to Current, is there enough kilowattage to get the message out?

That said, I wish the folks at Current best of luck, KO same.
I hope the truth is so pure, it helps.

[spooky3]

26. These guys both have great delivery.

[ooglymoogly]

28. Where else can you get wit, truth and hilarity these days

Especially liked the penis joke aimed at the fake hysteria by the media to destroy one of the few honest congressmen.

[alp227]

30. the official version in HD

[FredStembottom]

31. Not only a welcome lefty breeze through the righty media jungle.....

,,,, this promo was the funniest Top 10 in along time!

[AtomicKitten]

32. LOL. So good to see Keith back.

k&r

[Loge23]

35. Terrific! Dave gave the show a great plug! (eom)

[valerief]

36. Funny list! Love Keith and love Dave. nt

[The Wielding Truth]

38. I didn't know that Keith was that tall. He looks taller than Dave.

Oh and I'm so glad he is back on the air. I've watched his first show three times.

[Tanelorn]

40. 'Neither fair nor balanced' LOL

[Kurovski]

41. My new girlfriend is going to Tweet his pecker!

This is indeed a great day.

[awoke_in_2003]

43. "When this guy head butts somebody"...

:rofl: KO did a good job

[graywarrior]

45. I didn't realize how much I missed him

[customerserviceguy]

46. I think Letterman likes to stick his thumb in the eye of NBC

every chance he gets. This was a golden opportunity to do just that.

KO really was quite funny!

[louis-t]

47. Funny stuff. Love it.

[7wo7rees]

49. It was a win-win-win

On edit: grammar

Dave got a good bit for the show. I think he really likes Keith for his broadcast career in general. Dave watched him on ESPN, doncha know.
The viewer was treated to KO who may have never seen him before. Or an Ed Sullivan impersonation.
And Keith gets a plug from a MAJOR PR machine. For a leetle teeny network that was smart enough to pay Keith's mammoth bill at Olive Garden. ;)

[bluedigger]

51. What? Olive Garden?

He's dead to me.

[lonestarnot]

54. Olive Garden? Not.

[lonestarnot]

53. Fucking A! Beautius! +100000

Thanks Dave. I always liked you better that the chin dude. :applause:
