TV Behind the Scenes of the "Worst Super Bowl Party Ever."
Posted by Erik Henriksen on Mon, Feb 8, 2010 at 10:29 AM
Wondering how the Letterman/Leno/Oprah ad for The Late Show with David Letterman came about? The Times has the details.
The spot was shot last Tuesday afternoon, under the strictest of secrecy which involved both Mr. Leno and Ms. Winfrey flying in surreptitiously to New York, and arriving incognito at the theater, while Mr. Letterman was in the midst of taping his show for that night. It also involved Jay wearing a disguise: hooded sweatshirt, glasses and faux mustache. If you happened to be on Broadway between 53rd and 54th street last Tuesday about 4:15, you might have seen a man fitting that description slip into the theater by a small entrance under the marquee.
The full story is here.
