i think he's probably the funniest on latenight, but he still does stuff that's dumb and annoying.
he's not as bad as everyone's hero CONAN, though, who does the same annoying voices and whatnot every show. 3/21/2008 11:33:14 AM |

Quote : | "The format of CBS' The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson is as routine as its name: There's a host at his desk, celebrity guests, the occasional skit, an opening monologue.
And yet, with Ferguson's brand of shrewd silliness, this is an hour unlike other talk shows.
The contact is almost physical at times: At times in his monologue, he moves close to the camera and gives it a chummy swat, jiggling the picture. It's funny, and almost like he's tapping your shoulder, establishing a tactile connection.
"That's what I've got: me and you," he said in an interview. "I want to break down the barrier between us for that hour. The joy I get from the show should be transmitted to the viewers."
During his show, Ferguson is a kinetic cutup, loose-limbed and quick-witted. While he carries on, his face cycles briskly from wide-eyed wonderment to sly knowingness, naughty flirtation and that expansive, charming grin.
The soothing Scottish brogue of his native Glasgow can take flight into an emphatic squawk or the grand pronouncement that "It's a great day for America, everybody!" That's how he starts each nightly monologue; then a wisecrack explains why.
But, seriously, he does think it's great. Smitten by America since first visiting as a teen, Ferguson,
45, was officially sworn in as a U.S. citizen earlier this month.
Most late-night hosts don't have much to say about who they really are. But on the air, Ferguson is deftly unguarded. He mines humor from tough times that include two divorces, career setbacks and past drug and alcohol abuse.
He usually dwells on lighter issues -- such as a recent meditation about plans to see the movie The Spiderwick Chronicles.
"I don't really know what a spiderwick is," Ferguson admitted. "I think it's a combination of Spider-Man and Wikipedia: He fights crime and gives you the wrong answer for everything."
Ferguson is not only a talk-show host and stand-up comic, but also an actor, writer and musician (at 16, he quit school and joined a punk-rock band as a drummer).
He has appeared in films and written and starred in three -- including I'll Be There, which he also directed. Two years ago, he published Between the Bridge and the River, a daring novel.
Until he took over The Late Late Show, he was most widely known as Nigel Wick, the imperious British boss on Drew Carey's long-running ABC sitcom.
During the past year, he has made inroads against Late Night With Conan O'Brien, his NBC rival, narrowing the gap from 610,000 viewers to 120,000. With O'Brien scheduled to take over The Tonight Show from Jay Leno in 2009, Ferguson is poised to edge out a yet-to-be-named Late Night replacement." |
