TV Buzz Romney actually looks pretty dashing with a Zorro-esque cookie duster. Donning one could help him narrow the market on the hipster vote and narrow the generation gap. NOT.
TV Buzz Even David Letterman's ridiculous questions can't throw the FLOTUS off of her game.
TV Buzz I want some of what she's on! Kristin Chenoweth stopped by tonight's “Late Show” to, in theory, plug her upcoming ABC dramedy, “GCB,” and catch up with David Letterman. Instead, we were treated to a rambling tale of eyelash extensions, formaldehyde allergies, Asian stereotypes, anti-inflammatory medication, Vicks VapoRub (in the nose, to kill bacteria), neck braces, falling earrings, and dear lord will someone please come carry her off the stage?
TV Buzz David Letterman has embraced the Linsanity. On Wednesday's “Late Show,” Letterman dedicated his Top 10 List to the out-of-nowhere Knicks superstar, highlighting the 10 worst Jeremy Lin-related puns.
TV Buzz Hot girl overload! David Letterman welcomed 10 models featured in the 2012 “Sports Illustrated” Swimsuit Issue to tonight's “Late Show,” first to assist him with the night's Top 10 list (of reasons this edition is the best one ever), and later to wait anxiously as he unveiled the cover, flanked this year by 19-year-old Michigander Kate Upton.
TV Buzz “How can I be polite about this… it's a, uh, somewhat slowed down version of me.” Remember that Civil War-era photo that popped up on eBay and, according to its owner, was proof Nicolas Cage is a time-traveling vampire? Cage finally commented on the controversy to David Letterman on tonight's “Late Show.”
TV Buzz Late-night wars come and go, but grudges last forever. Renowned Jay Leno-hater Howard Stern joined David Letterman on tonight's “Late Show” to congratulate Letterman on his 30 years in late-night TV. And since Letterman hates Leno just as much as Stern does, what better way to celebrate than by spending five minutes talking smack about him!

The FBI is investigating death threats directed towards David Letterman found on a jihadist website, including statements such as, “Is there not among you (someone)…to cut the tongue of this lowly Jew and shut it forever?” The author of the threats was angered over jokes Letterman has made involving al-Qaida leaders Osama bin Laden and Ilyas Kashmirandi. Oh, and Letterman isn't Jewish.
I think this demonstrates a remarkable sense of humor from both parties. Turnabout is fat play! What?
Betty White presented the Top 10 on Letterman last night, and it was predictably “awwww” inspiring. Sorry, Death…you can't have her.
While on The Late Show with David Letterman, Neil Patrick Harris dropped a million megaton adorable bomb by showing off his baby twins in costume. When you see the Frida Kahlo costume, your unibrow with curl from cuteness.
Emphasis on “attempts.” It turns into a LGBT Abbott and Costello routine. David Letterman is America's cranky, befuddled, yet well-intentioned grandpa.
