As we count down to David Letterman’s 25th anniversary on late-night TV (tomorrow night at 11:30 p.m. on CBS), vote in the poll in the right margin and comment below on your favorite guest appearance on his show!
Let’s review the nominees:
•Drew Barrymore: Famously flashed Letterman while standing on his desk.
•Calvert DeForest (a.k.a. Larry “Budâ€? Melman): Dave’s bespectacled buddy.
•Biff Henderson: Dave’s headset-wearing stage manager.
•Rupert Jee: Owner of the nearby Hello Deli.
•Dorothy Letterman: Dave’s adorable mom, famous for pie-baking prowess.
•Madonna: Famously shocked Letterman and his audience with her language in the ‘90s.
•Bill Murray: Sneden’s Landing resident was the first guest on Dave’s CBS and NBC late-night shows. Also, one of the greatest people ever.
•Regis Philbin: Guest-hosted when Dave was out for heart surgery.
•Mujibur Rahman and Sirajul Islam: Former souvenir shopkeepers at nearby K & L’s Rock America.
•Tony Randall: Late comedian who made cameos as the straight-man.
•Richard Simmons: Very-alive comedian who still makes cameos as, um, not the straight-man.
UPDATE: •Jack Hanna: Animal expert keeps Dave on his toes.

Jack Hanna the animal guy should have been included.
Is this THE Dave? What an honor, Mr. Letterman!
Either way, you make a good point. You can now vote for Mr. Hanna in the poll, or add your own nominee.
Madonna
Although not the most hilarious, his show with Warren Zevon might have been his best since moving to CBS.
While he was on NBC, I recall a show with Nastasia Kinskij (I’m sure that’s misspelled) where Dave could not get over the bizarre hairdo she was (apparently seriously) sporting. One of the funniest of the early years.
I’ve been told Biff commutes from the White Plains Metro North station.
Nice! That should earn him a vote, people! Biff rules, but he’s got some stiff competition.
By the way, I’m angry that I didn’t think to include Howard Stern on this list, but our savvy readers are not only quick to add him to the poll, but to propel him to the top of it.
Keep on voting, people!
What about Charles Grodin? His angry schtick with letterman (and even johnny) is the best. Or even Jay THomas every christmas.
I Like Bill Murry The Best On David Letterman

I have three in this order
1. Teri Garr
2. Jay Leno -BEFORE the Tonight Show
3. Dick Assman
If I had to go with the list it would be Biff Henderson.
Amy Sedaris is by far my favorite guest to see on Letterman.

Johny Carson just after he stepped down from the Late Night. And I know this is asking for guests but for me my favorite show, and I am not sure he had guests on that day, was the first show after September 11, 2001. Not so much the event but the fact that he got us all started down the path of healing and he showed that, although now was not the time to be funny, we would get there.
these much days. done gotten haven’t I ,
