Face to Face with David is a Canadian television talk show, which premiered in 2020 on Amazon Prime Video.[1] Hosted by actor David Oulton, the show features Oulton interviewing celebrities, through videoconferencing software due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada.[2]

The show has been characterized as an LGBTQ-oriented talk show, as Oulton is openly gay and several of his early guests were also members of the LGBTQ community, although Oulton has clarified that the show is not limited to LGBTQ people or topics.[3] The show was launched as a casual project through Oulton's social media profiles, before being picked up by Amazon Prime after a month.[1]

In May 2021, the series was picked up for broadcast in Canada by OutTV.[4] In June 2021, Corus Entertainment began airing the series on Slice.[5] It will begin airing on the Oprah Winfrey Network in Canada in August 2021.[6]

In South Africa the series is available on Showmax, TVNZ in New Zealand, and various other networks globally.
