Tue LateShowRerun#2 940824 Wed LateShowRerun#8 940825 Thu LateShowRerun#193 940826 Fri LateShowRerun#160 END Format: +=+=+=+ The complete episode guide contains a short summary of every _Late Show_ episode aired to date. As opposed to a storybook description, an episode summary consists of a list of the various `main events' that occurred on the show for that day. Each main event has been categorized, labeled with one or more keywords, and given a brief description. By being organized in this manner, the episode guide can be easily interpretted by programs. A summary for a single episode consists of one line starting in the first column followed by one or more lines each indented by a single tab character. This first line contains the date, the day of the week, the keyword `LateShow' and `#' followed by the episode number. The final item on the line is the Library of Congress number if it is available. Each line within an episode contains a `major event'. In some cases a major event was broken down into more detail. If so, another line may have been used and indented by both a tab and space character. Note that if you downloaded a portion of the episode guide from a WWW browser, it may have converted tabs into a number of blanks. Keywords: +=+=+=+=+ Below is a description of all keywords used to categorize the individual events. All keywords are case-sensitive. [?]Hep me! Hep me! Please fill in the missing guest info! [??] Hep me! Hep me! Please fill in the missing music info! (sp?) Something I could not spell. Please correct, if you can. ~Everything on the line following this character is *not* considered part of the episode guide. This character is used often to delimit WWW links from the episode guide. All night long: Some event which occurs many times throughout the night, however, usually with variations. Antics: Just messing around ... This serves as a `catch-all' at times. Appearance: Someone who appears (live or on tape) just briefly - perhaps, just to say blow a kiss, wave, and disappear. Audience: Something involving audience members. Audio: A taped audio clip. Bit: A live comedy bit presented. Bumper: The scene shown going in and out of commercials is a bumper. Here we note something interesting in a bumper. CBS mail bag: Dave answers letters from viewers. This was called `Viewer Mail' on NBC (those weasles!). Character: The appearance of a character on the show - such as, `The Fugitive Guy' Chime: A chorus plays as the words are shown across the screen, such as "Dave Letterman, Your TV Friend" Clip: A video clip of some past event. Cold opening: Sometimes a taped comedy bit precedes the Late Show theme song. Cold closing: Sometimes a taped comedy bit follows the closing credits. cooking demonstration Somebody attempts to prepare food while Dave wreaks havoc. demonstration Show-and-Tell time (such as cooking, magic, card tricks, etc) Edit: Some post-show editing that we noticed - usually justified by someone at the taping (usually second-hand information here, folks). External: "Hal, turn on that external camera." That is, Dave sits at his desk talking to people through a remote camera. Film: A short film prepared by a guest specifically for Late Show. Full credits They don't list the full credits everynight! Game: The special brand of game such as `May we see your photos, please? Graphics: Some new graphics Hal has cooked up. interview Dave at his desk; guest(s) to his right. LateShow# The keyword that marks the beginning of an episode.

Staff: a Late Show staff member appearance. standup A comedian's standup routine. Starting now: A change in the Late Show format starting at that point. Story: Some wacky story that Dave shares with us (no visuals usually). Stupid human tricks: People display their special talents; Dave mediates; please no waggering. Stupid pet tricks: People and their pets show their special talents; Dave mediates. Tape: A pre-taped comedy segment. TopTen: There's a Top Ten list presented every night (unless otherwise indicated). Only out of the ordinary events and supporting video are listed here. The Late Show Cast: +=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ For those people who are unique to the show and for those who appear quite frequently, it is silly to place a description for them between brackets every time they are listed. Instead, that description has been diverted to the lists below. Each list below gives the person's name as it would appear in the episode guide followed by a description for that person. In some sense you may want to view this list as another list of keywords. For example, to get a list of appearances by Barbara Gaines, do a search with the string "Staff:.*Barbara". Staff: ====== Unfortunately since Dave and Paul are involved in just about everything "Staff:.*Dave" and "Staff:.*Paul" is not supported. Instead search for "Dave" and "Paul" (which will give you more than you probably wanted). Dave David Letterman, your TV pal and talk show host, actor Paul Paul Shaffer, bandleader of the CBS Orkestra, actor Calvert Calvert Deforest, a.k.a. Larry `Bud' Melman (courtesy NBC), actor Biff Biff Henderson, stage manager Morty Robert Morton, executive producer Barbara Barbara Gaines associate producer Bill Wendell announcer Hal Hal Gurnee, director Mary Connelly segment producer Laurie Diamond assistant to David Letterman Anton Anton Fig, drums Tony Mendez cue card guy Angel cameraman Peter Lassally executive producer Bob Burnett head writer Gerard Mulligan writer Steve O'Donnel writer Bill Scheft writer and audience warmup guy Neighbors: ========== Bart Dadon Academy Clothes Mujibur Rahman K&L's Rock America Sirajul Islam K&L's Rock America Fern Chapnick Longacre Copy Center Rupert Jee Hello Deli Alexandra Mitsakis Bagel Cafe Charlie Levy Santino Photo/Video Mr. Elo owner, Santino Photo/Video Joe G Joe G's Pizza Using the Episode Guide: +=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= Unix's grep =========== The Episode Guide was defined to be manipulated by any program, editor, or tool which permits string searches. Unix's grep command immediately comes to mind. Here are a few examples (assuming the Episode Guide has been saved in a file named ` late-show-episodes.txt'): For an abbreviated episode guide ... grep "LateShow\|interview\|song\|demonstration\|standup" late-show-episodes.txt To save a list of Dave-comedy into a file ... grep "LateShow\|Tape:\|Bit:" late-show-episodes.txt > funnystuff For a list of musicial acts ... grep "LateShow\|song\|Sitting\|musician" late-show-episodes.txt To append a list of Sarah Jessica Parker's appearances to a file ... grep "LateShow\|S.*Jessica Parker" late-show-episodes.txt >> babes To determine when Barbara Gaines has been on the big show ... grep "LateShow\|Staff:.*Barbara" late-show-episodes.txt To determine how many weeks of reruns so far ... grep "Mon.*LateShowRerun" late-show-episodes.txt A Bourne shell script for selecting events ========================================== Unfortunately this output from grep is not exactly what we want. There may be many extraneous episode heading lines (titled "LateShow") and grep knows nothing about the continuation lines mentioned above. Below you will find a Bourne shell script (name it ` late-show-grep') which solves these problems. The examples above (minus the last one) translate to: late-show-grep "interview\|song\|demonstration\|standup" < late-show-episodes.txt late-show-grep "Tape:\|Bit:" < late-show-episodes.txt > funnystuff late-show-grep "song\|Sitting\|musician" < late-show-episodes.txt late-show-grep "S.*Jessica Parker" < late-show-episodes.txt >> babes late-show-grep "Staff:.*Barbara" < late-show-episodes.txt Notice that it works much nicer with continuation lines. For a list of stupid human and pet tricks, try: late-show-grep Stupid < late-show-episodes.txt The second (optional) parameter for late-show-grep specifies lines that should be omitted. To get a list of all live comedy bits except the quizes, try: late-show-grep "Bit:" "Quiz:" < late-show-episodes.txt The "-L" option omits the heading lines containing the keyword "LateShow". To find out how many times Dan Rather has been interviewed, try: late-show-grep -L "Rather.*interview" < late-show-episodes.txt | wc -l Other examples: late-show-grep "Phone.*Audience" < late-show-episodes.txt late-show-grep "Dave.*sing" < late-show-episodes.txt A Bourne shell script for selecting episodes ============================================ Sometimes we want to select only a few episodes from the episode guide. Below you will find a Bourne shell script (name it `late-show-list') which provides this. To list the episodes which were reran in August 1994, try: late-show-list 940617 930831 930908 940707 940513 < late-show-episodes.txt To list all episodes in August 1994, try: late-show-list 9408 < late-show-episodes.txt The two scripts can be combined. To list all appearances by Tony Randall in August 1994, try: late-show-list 9408 < late-show-episodes.txt | late-show-grep Randall The World Wide Pants Web ======================== A World Wide Web version of late-show-grep is found at http://bingen.cs.csbsju.edu/letterman/show-summary/WWPWbrowser.html.Z. The source for the Bourne shell scripts ======================================= Finally here is the Bourne shell script named ` late-show-grep': #!/bin/sh # Standard input should be a Late Show episode guide. # The first parameter is a string specifying lines in the episode guide # which should be printed. # The second (optional) parameter is a string specifying lines which # should be omitted. # The -L option indicates that the heading lines should not be printed.
