The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson...Craig leaving Show*

He's a funny guy.

 

Indeed:

 

Oh cool, I was worried for a second there that the new host might not be another white male.

 

I'm sorry to say, you're welcome to Mr Corden.

 

Christ I thought the one he did with the England football team was good. This had me in tears.

 

Named Jimmy/James.

 

Craig's in final negotiations for a new syndicated talk show that would air at 7:30.

Has there ever been a better interviewer of women than Craig?

I hope to one day be able to talk to women like he does.

 

The only thing I ever learned to like about Ferguson was the quick wit. Which the mystery man behind Geoff 's voices can equal more than half the time. He does great conversations with women, as do just about all gay/bi men. I couldn't watch him when he was dressing up as ugly women or Prince Charles in the shows previous form. It's hard to even put up now with the seriously lame intros to tweets and emails. It's a damn shame it's got to end, but I must agree with him - he's taken the hour-long talk show thing about as far as it can go. I'll be surprised if he ever comes back half as strong. Sorry for the negativity.

 

I agree, the show went downhill. I've stopped watching, pretty much. I just watch Seth, if I'm up.
*Pretty sure Craig isn't bi, btw. Definitely not gay. Just saying.

 

Oh Christ I'll do whatever it takes to get him back to England! First born? Second born? Record collection? Anything!

When I left England I thought I had escaped him forever. If he makes it big in the US it'll be almost impossible to escape seeing his mug all over the place.

 

I know he's played that card to the max, but it was only 2 or 3 weeks ago where he went farther than I ever thought he would. He shocked me and his audience (crickets) with an admission that could, I suppose, be just as true as not. I hesitate to even type it here as I don't want anybody to think it matters one way or another to me... so I won't. Let's just say it didn't lend itself to the career of a future prime-time comedian. One that expects employment until December.

 

Well, now I'm curious. Could you tell me which episode? Or DM it?

 

So what occurred?

 

I'd like to know as well.

 

That's not true, though. Did you watch him when he first started the show? He totally has a self-edit button, he just stopped using it, at some point.

 

Hmm Whenever I see old stuff, he barely curses at all. I even remember him apologizing for cursing.

 

+3.

Most of the August shows are up on youtube without ads. Who was the notable guest that night.

 

An Englishman taking a Scotsman's job! There will be questions in the Scottish Parliament!

 

Suffice it to say you've piqued our curiosity. Care to elaborate a bit more @stumpy?

 

OK, but the build up won't match the answer. This was back when that kid got stuck in the giant va*ina sculpture that had just been installed somewhere overseas(?) a few weeks before. He had to have emergency workers lube up his legs to get him un-stuck. So you already know where the discussion is going. Anyway, some back and forth between Craig and Geoff. I can't remember the exact wording of their discussion but it led to Craig admitting that he likes him some va*ina and also some "*****" now and then, too. Just as clear as that, but he wasted no time in cutting to a break. He had that look on his face when he's gone a little too far on a joke and knows it. That's it!

 

Hmm... I guess that is a bit more than his usual, "A few times in the '80s..." but I still don't know if I'd take it to heart. Definitely wouldn't shock me if I heard it.

 

It just surprised me, as he's been so close to that line without crossing it so many times before.
