Why Crispin Glover Was Banned from The Late Show with David Letterman
Crispin Glover’s infamous 1987 appearance on Late Night with David Letterman remains one of the most bizarre moments in talk show history—so much so that it led to him being banned from the show.
During his segment, Glover, known for his eccentric personality, began acting erratically, seemingly having a meltdown while discussing how the media manipulates narratives. Without any warning, he launched into a rant, challenged Letterman to an arm-wrestling match, and nearly kicked the host in the face. The stunned audience wasn’t sure whether they were witnessing a genuine breakdown or an elaborate performance.
Letterman, visibly unsettled, cut the interview short, walking off the set before the segment could conclude. The surreal moment became legendary, fueling speculation about Glover’s mental state. However, it was later revealed that he was in character for a project he was working on, though he never explicitly stated whether it was a prank or an artistic statement.
Despite the controversy, Glover was invited back months later. This time, instead of another shocking performance, he brought Letterman a token of goodwill—though details of what he gifted the host remain a mystery.
Even decades later, Crispin Glover’s Letterman appearance stands as one of the strangest and most talked-about moments in late-night television history.
