Mmm … Crispy
This is the first time I have ever actually seen the infamous Crispin Glover appearance on David Letterman. For the life of me, I can’t figure out what went wrong. First of all, I have never heard anyone else mention this before, but his outfit isn’t just random - it’s the costume from Rubin and Ed, one of the finest movies ever made. It’s clear to me that Glover is just doing shtick … but this appearance allegedly upset Letterman so much that he refused to ever book Glover again. Is he really upset, or is it some conceptual Andy Kaufman-esque piece? You be the judge.

crazy. i never saw that either. i did hear from mary mayhem that crispon glover’s phone # is listed and he encourages people to call him. we were gonna call him and tell him he needs to play the roll of Vic Thrill. that would be pretty cool, opposite Ali G as Curly Oxide. anyway, good post

Dude. Crispin Glover as Vic Thrill is quite possibly the most inspired casting choice I’ve ever heard.
