Maybe This Only Amuses Me – Late Night with David Letterman Short Film

Chris Elliott is possibly the most underappreciated comedian of the last twenty five years. He spent a long time with David Letterman doing various skits until he landed his own sitcom on Fox called Get A Life. The show was too funny and too weird for its own good (see: Arrested Development) and it was canceled.

Elliott has made appearances in films such as Groundhog Day and Scary Movie 2 and also had a reoccurring character on the ridiculously popular sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond. However, Elliott is at his best when he’s in his element as his Letterman bits and Get A Life prove.

I believe the other actor in this is Paul Dooley whom you may recognize from Christopher Guest’s mockumentary films such as A Mighty Wind.
