Community got some much needed press as the season was ending, it just wasn’t exactly the exposure they were looking for. So when Joel McHale was on The Late Show, David Letterman took the opportunity to find out what happened between Chevy Chase and former-show runner Dan Harmon. He didn’t exactly give any details about that, but he did share the time he beat up Chase per Clark Griswold’s request. Let’s just say Fletch didn’t flinch and because of that he suffered shoulder. Seriously what was Pierce Hawthorne thinking? I mean he has seen Jeff Winger without a shirt so he should’ve known how muscular he is. Believe me I have studied those muscles and I know I am not the only one who went to Community College for that course.
While most grandmother’s would be bragging that their grandkid is in a Martin Scorsese film, Jonah Hill told David Letterman on The Late Show that it’s the opposite for him. When he told her that his playing a “drug addicted stock broker who cheats people out of money”, she got quiet and then told her grandson she didn’t like it. So when he asked her what he should do, she told him to ask Scorsese to give him a different role. That is a tough decision for him: defy his grandmother or stand up to one of the greatest directors ever. I guess we will have to wait until The Wolf of Wall Street comes out to find out what he did.
Will Ferrell was on The Late Show tonight and he told David Letterman that his two year old son likes to go up to people (male and female) and tell they have a little pen!s. Then the Anchorman told the CBS host that his brother-in-law wants him to have a fancy holiday party with actors so that Axel can go to a George Clooney type and tell them they have a small wanker. Then Letterman responded, “yeah like Clooney hasn’t heard that before.” So is that Letterman’s way of saying that Doug Ross might be above average as a lady killer, but below average where it counts?
Kyra Sedgwick was on The Late Show yesterday and she talked to David Letterman about growing up in NYC as a kid. She said when she was a youngster Manhattan had a smell about it, and it was a sh!tty one. Before she was Mrs Bacon, the pooper scooper law wasn’t in effect so Manhattan smelled like dog poo for half of the year. But that wasn’t the only problem, it was stepping in that crap that wasn’t fun either. I have to agree with her stepping in dog poo is not fun at all.
She also said that New Yorkers have gotten more polite as time has gone on because the construction workers no longer whistle at her. I have to agree with The Closer star, I miss the days when they acknowledged you as you walked down the street. Here’s a little secret, we actually like it.
A few months ago someone suggested to David Letterman that he open a park outside his The Late Show studios in Manhattan, so he did. Well Steve Martin thought it was such a good idea, he opened up a park and let me tell you it has all the fringe benefits of Central Park but in one condensed area. Seriously I can’t wait to get back to NY just so I could go to park and see his grass that will leave you as high as a kite without actually flying one.
