david letterman's a really hardworking guy.ly hardworking guy. [ laughter ] and he made his crew and all the people that worked on his show, they really wanted to make the show good for him. they were really devoted in the way a military man wld -- a general would inspire his troops. and, you know, i think that i get that feeling from your people, too. >> seth: that is very nice of you to say. you of course were -- you were the established guy when you did that show in 1982. but you came into "snl" second season. and so at that point was this hit show, you were the only new guy they brought in. >> right. >> seth: and what were your early shows like? do you feel as though you fit in right away? >> no. well, actually, the first day they hired me sort of to come for a look-see. and they wrote me three great sketches that i killed. i was great.
