Back in the NBC days, the Letterman guests I and my friends most looked forward to were Jay Leno (hard to believe now, but he was great) and Richard Lewis. I had seen him at the Ice House a few times and just enjoyed his act so much. I started a re watch of Curb a few weeks ago to get ready for the last season, and now his episodes are bitter sweet. Will miss him.
