Just curious, if anybody knows if Dave Letterman tapes his Friday show together with his Thursday show on Thursday? Help is greatly appreciated.

You usually can tell when his jokes on Fridays seem a little "dated."

Thanks, I hope this is true. I just ask b/c I'm going to be in the city that day & I'm an autograph collector, & want to get Viggo Mortensen who is going to be on Letterman Thursday, so I was trying to find out if they tape early.

Yep -- i haven't been to the show in the last 2 years, but they definitely tape two shows on Thursday. The Thursday's show taping is moved up from its normal ACTUAL Monday-Wednesday taping time, so that they can finish up the Friday taping (with a different audience) by a decent time.
