My favorite Super Bowl ad: Letterman, Oprah and Leno [video]
This advertisement for the "Late Show with David Letterman" was probably my favorite Super Bowl commercial.
In 2007, Letterman was joined by Oprah Winfrey in a time when the two had a faux-feud on the airwaves. To see Jay Leno show up in an ad for the competition is pop culture history in the making.
There is no love lost between Letterman and Leno. Letterman, of course, was primed to replace Johnny Carson on "The Tonight Show" when Leno swooped in and took over. I guess Letterman is probably the only person who knows how Conan O'Brien really feels.
To keep this Super Bowl ad a secret, Leno evidently disguised himself with a mustache to sneak into the Ed Sullivan Theatre where Letterman's show is taped.

Hiya , when viewing at your site i notice some form of strange codes all throughout the web page, in case it’s important I just thought I’d let you know it says this with all sorts of other stuff after it: “Warning: Cannot modify header information. It's most likely me though.
