Letterman Celebrates 25 Years

DAVID LETTERMAN continues to make late-night television worth staying up for, and on Thursday, Feb. 1, the veteran TV talker celebrates a 25-year broadcasting milestone.

Letterman first appeared on stage for "Late Night with David Letterman" in 1982. Over 11 years later, he jumped over to CBS to headline "The Late Show," now in its 14th season.

Famous for his nightly "Top Ten" countdown spoof, Letterman has hosted 4,506 broadcasts, welcomed 14,772 guests, received 14 Emmy Awards and has a whopping 89 Emmy nominations to his credit.

Joining him on the landmark show will be actor BILL MURRAY, who was also Letterman's very first guest on both his "Late Night" and "Late Show" broadcasts.

Basketball star LeBRON JAMES of the Cleveland Cavaliers will also stop by the program.

Back in the late 80's I used to love to try and stay up to watch Letterman with my dad and Merv. Good times.....
