Big Surprise Guests Spotted Entering Ed Sullivan Theater for Final Letterman Show

When CBS announced the guests for David Letterman’s final run of shows as host of the Late Show, they conspicuously left out any names for the last episode, set to air tonight.

Today, we learned that Letterman’s “favorite band,” the Foo Fighters, will be performing a song on Wednesday night’s show:

And now, thanks to some tweets from fans and reporters staking out the Ed Sullivan Theater, we know a few more names set to stop by unannounced. Read no further if you want to truly be surprised.

And there are plenty more names on this growing list:

Still no word on a possible Jay Leno cameo:

When Letterman came on last nite, I flipped the TV off, and then turned it off. I sure as hell don’t care.

I agree he was so funny back in the 80’s with Larry Bud Melman, those 2 Indian guys, his stupid pet tricks. Once he achieved power status and started getting poltical, he became this cranky old man.

I haven’t watched Letterman in years.

Who is replacing him?

He used to mercilessly make fun of Katie Couric and Bryant Gumbel and the Today show.

He really showed their vapidity and vacuity.

But he stopped doing it a long time ago.

I can’t remember last time I saw that show, or any late night show.

Decades now.

“I haven’t watched Letterman in years.

I haven’t watched broadcast/programmed TV in years.
What’s new on Netflix?

(Only here because of the morbid curiosity about a “he’s _still_on? he11, he was ancient history when I stopped watching such stuff over a decade ago” _finally_ coming to an end.)

Good riddance to the POS creep.

It embarrasses me no end that I actually used to watch and like his show in the 1980s. But admittedly, that’s before he became an ugly, embittered bully. The ‘rape’ joke directed at Palin’s daughter was the last straw. I still can’t think of anyone else on television that I’d more like to punch their face into a bloody pulp than this cretin.
