Legendary Late-Night Icon Joins Free Streaming Service with ‘Letterman TV’

12/11/2024

Samsung TV Plus, the go-to free-streaming service, continues its commitment to delivering premium entertainment with the launch of “Letterman TV.” Starting today, fans in the U.S. and Canada can stream Letterman 24/7 with the legendary Late Show with David Letterman, curated moments, and never-before seen commentary from David himself where he reminisces back on some of his most iconic interviews, exclusively on Samsung TV Plus.

“I’m very excited about this,” said Letterman, who hosted The Late Show for 22 years. “Now I can watch myself age without looking in the mirror!”

“Dave’s show was the original viral video,” said Walter Kim, Executive Producer for Digital at Letterman’s production company Worldwide Pants, Inc. “As someone who worked for the entirety of The Late Show, it’s a thrill to help assemble and create programming around some of our favorite moments from the show, and with more than 4000 hours from which to choose, the channel will continuously change.”

Letterman Like You’ve Never Seen Before—Now On-Demand and Across Samsung Devices

“Letterman TV” features the renowned award-winning comedian and television host like never before with a 24/7 binge channel and free on-demand. Letterman and The Late Show’s most memorable moments will unspool daily, with new content being added every month. The channel’s initial offering includes Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks playing The Newlywed Game, Denzel Washington sharing laughs with Don Rickles and Dave, Will Ferrell’s comedic antics, musical performances by legends like Ringo Starr, unforgettable stunts like Dave working at Taco Bell and jumping into a giant bowl of eggnog. Viewers can also expect classic celebrity interviews, Top Ten lists, beloved segments like “Stupid Tricks,” and heartwarming holiday specials. Adding to the excitement, exclusive never-before-seen intros from Letterman himself offer fresh commentary and behind-the-scenes anecdotes, from reflections on his interviews with Adam Sandler to revisiting his holiday antics.

And, for streamers in the U.S., Letterman TV will be available on-demand via half-hour compilations of fan-favorite moments that defined late-night television.
