I haven't regularly watched Letterman in years, but I used to be a huge fan. In fact, one of the highlights of college for me was seeing the show taped in '99, with none other than Martha Stewart as one of the guests. I will be watching -- or at least DVRing -- tonight's historic episode.

Tonight, Oprah Winfrey will finally appear on The Late Show with David Letterman.

It's been (apparently) sixteen years that the Queen of Daytime and the, err, Prince of Late Night have been feuding. I don't know how real the bad blood is, but I've enjoyed Dave's many, many, many hilarious jabs at the talk-maven and I'm excited to see where this goes tonight. The build-up to this "event" has been brillant, with Dave promising it'll be the "Super Bowl of Love." Last night, Paul Schaffer said he couldn't wait to watch the episode on his Video iPod, and I giggled. Paul Schaffer actually made me (kinda) laugh.

The Fort Worth Star-Telegram has a really excellent piece on the feud (via AICN). I highly recommend checking it out.

And most definitely check out Letterman tonight, not just for Oprah, but for Bonnie Raitt too!
