Welcome to the Letterman YouTube Channel, home to all your favorite clips from Late Night and Late Show - as well as conversations with the writers, producers and performers who helped make it all happen. These highlights have been artisanly-produced, carefully-curated, and chosen completely at random by an old computer that used to pick numbers for the New York Lotto back in the 90’s.

Can I just say to whoever runs this channel - THANK YOU that we don't have to sit through ads to get to the goods.

Just having Alex saying it so straight faced makes it even funnier.

[danieldougan]

Alex always had a great sense of humor.

[TheQuixotic]

This is quite literally the 2 people on television who shaped me the most: my sense of humor and my thirst for knowledge would be nothing without these two. Keep up the good work, Dave. And thank you for everything, Alex.

I was so blessed to have met Alex on the TCM cruise. He hosted a film trivia contest. I was very drunk and he tolerated my attempts at being funny with humor and class. Loved this guy. Miss him

Top tens were the best part of letterman.

[wiscgaloot]

Freaking brilliant! Damn I miss Alex Trebek.

[fasteddie]

This is an incredible channel! Love seeing these clips that I missed when they originally aired.

Love how the Cher joke still works, even though it was more a dig at her based on her previous appearance on Letterman.

[paulday]

One of Letterman's best Top 10 lists ever. Alex Trebek was a very funny guy.

[The_Last_Ninja]

Watching this just makes you realise how much we actually appreciate and miss David Letterman. A true TV legend in every sense of the word. We miss you Dave 😢

I love Top Ten lists that I even read the first and second volume of the Top Ten! RIP Trebek

[watson]

How the hell did this show up in my suggestions today, and thank you very much to whoever made it happen. 😎

[bmla]

When you start with a killer Cher joke, you know its going to be a good one

[MrWildcat]

#10 was the best! Thanks for the uploads! Much better quality than having to watch old vhs tapes!

Said by Chip Esten on Whose Line "I'll take Things Nobody Knows for 200."

[kingporter]

R.I.P. Alex Trebek, a great Jeopardy host!

[kali]

More than a few of those would fit quite well on SNL's Celebrity

[kevinnewsom]

Kidding aside...love you Alex! R.I.P.

Scenes From A Hat on Whose Line has also did a bit about rejected Jeopardy categories, and they’re just as funny:
Wayne Brady: Famous Klansmen for $200.
Ryan Stiles: Drew Carey’s lingerie for $50.
Charles “Chip” Esten: Things nobody knows for $1, 000.
Colin Mochrie: Animal genitalia audio clues…and we didn’t get a dollar value.
I get a laugh out of any comedy routine that pertains to game shows. And this video definitely made me laugh.
