Almost sad they weren't meeting to form the world's most formidable comedy collective!
When David Letterman arrived to tape the final edition of The Late Show at Ed Sullivan Theater in Manhattan on May 20, Hollywood's comedy geniuses turned up to bid him goodbye.
And from what we hear, it was all kinds of heartwarming and legendary.
The force behind the highly acclaimed 30 Rock, and the newly launched Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Tina Fey has appeared on the Tonight Show a record 20 times, she revealed during her final appearance on the show a few episodes back.
As if her much talked about stripping down to her undergarments on the show as a farewell gesture to Letterman wasn't enough, Fey turned up at the final taping and made this endearing face for the cameras.
Yes, we are all sad that Dave is leaving, Tina.
In the 'Top 10 Things I've Always Wanted to Say to Dave' segment on the show, Fey said, '"Thanks for finally proving men can be funny.'
Dumb and Dumber 2 actor Jim Carrey had a confession to make on the show.
'Honestly, Dave, I've always found you to be a bit of an overactor,' he said on the show.
He arrived for the taping wearing a cheeky 'Spank You, Kindly, David Letterman' tee shirt.
