Erik Hayden, reporting for The Hollywood Reporter:

For his next move, David Letterman is jumping in to the increasingly crowded free, ad-supported TV channel (FAST) space.

The late-night great’s production company Worldwide Pants has inked a deal with Samsung TV Plus to bring around 4,000 hours of original video to the company’s streaming service, the firms said Wednesday. “I’m very excited about this,” stated Letterman, who glibly added, “Now I can watch myself age without looking in the mirror!”

The output for the 24/7 on-demand channel titled Letterman TV appears to rely heavily on archival clips from his nearly 33-year late-night run, including his CBS Late Show Top Ten lists, “Stupid Tricks” segments, interviews with stars, holiday specials and behind-the-scenes clips along with fresh commentary from Letterman, presumably on all the above.

I don’t know how different this will be from Letterman’s excellent YouTube channel, but honest to god I’d never even heard of “Samsung TV Plus” until reading this.
