Goodbye, Dave!David Letterman’s Final Show — See the Stars Who Wished Him Farewell!
Last night, May 20, we said farewell to David Letterman‘s talk show, The Late Show.
Letterman, 68, was the longest reigning late night host in television history, so needless to say, he went out with a bang.
The 80-minute episode was jam-packed with A-list celebrities — like Jim Carrey, 53, Tina Fey, 45, and Alec Baldwin, 57 —who came to bid adieu to David.
