Last night, David Letterman said goodbye to “Late Show,” and to 33 years as a late-night talk show host. It was a terrific outing, mixed with sincerity (Dave calling Paul Shaffer “my best friend”), reflection, cameos and laughs both new and old. You can stream the whole thing at CBS.com, but here are the YouTube highlights if you want them:
