The most underrated late show host ever. His monologues were funny, his interviews were funny for audience and guest alike, he was witty quick but respectful. A really amazing host.
I always have the biggest smile on my face when watching/or listening to Craig talk. I'd love to have a conversation with him. Only I'd probably freeze up.
@@JoshSweetvale nope. He's just really talented. That's why they're forcing other hosts from other shows to take cues from him. It's truly offensive honestly.
Lemony Snicket to be fair, they're highly controlled. They're specifically told when to laugh and to control/modify how they laugh, and to laugh whether they get the joke or not.
@@fe5018 Not on this show, there were plenty of times where jokes fell flat or the audience didn't get it and there'd be little to no reaction at all. This show was the unicorn of late night TV
Lemony Snicket I love it, he rarely talked about biased politics and actually had creative control, whereas now most comedians can only talk about politics
"well a..could you give him these *raises up soiled swimming trousers* and tell him *stare in a longing, almost satisfied posture*...thanks*smiles* " haha this is hilarious i favorited so many of his episodes i especially love the monologues.
"WHAT? You can't be serious! I AM! What happened? Well, if you shut up I'll tell ya!":P:P:P:P:P Ferguson is my King of Late Night.:) The man's a comic genius.:):):)
This was perfection. Craig is such a fantastic comedian. I'm not sure if Geoff is robbing from his genius or just the next level of it but this was great. Well rounded.
Josh Thompson is very talented and funny, as is Craig. They're friends in real life, and I think the chemistry is organic. I love the voiceovers he does. They make some histeeical segments. Jay Leno fly anyone?
I actually worked a whole day twice @ work, with a power outage! I was working weekends alone in a huge office. I had only two dim lights on either sides of the basement to work by, that ran off the generator. The computer was down & I had to do everything on paper all day. It was spooky. One thing is I had a lot off free time and read all the booklets & printouts I could find. I learned a lot about how the place ran & eventually became a full time float for the office. Those were the best days!
I agree! The problem is I fear that CBS allows him to be so creative with the show because they figure "no one watches anyway," so in a way I hope he doesn't get the 11:30 slot b/c if he does, CBS will try to change the creative format to make it more "11:30-friendly."
When cnn did their little late night documentary amazed me how they basically didn’t mention Craig or how he went head to head w Conan and best him in the ratings often
I adore Craig and appreciate this posting. He is brilliant. I’m sorry I didn’t watch him while he was actually on tv. I just wish I didn’t have to listen to the exaggerated laughter, especially that one woman. Yikes! It’s like the audience is laughing but not listening.
For those who didn't get the pun of "Going Antiquing", when Ferguson mentions getting tired of Muscle Beach after five hours", he is using the terminology in the Colloquial Sense to refer to youth engaging in sexual intercourse with an elderly person.
I laughed so hard, it became some kind of painful endurance exercise. I kept having to pause the video to keep from passing out. Well, that what it felt like anyhow.
Same with me. I always liked Craig, but I would always watch Conan, only occasionally flipping to Craig between commercials. I watch Craig every night now. Do you watch The Tonight Show with Conan?
@@manz007 No, he's done a miniseries about his return home where he openly apologized for hating Scotland, said how wrong he was and how it was all just fine and it was down to him and his attitude and drug abuse as a youth. Hobo Fabulous is the series.
ive been a fan. This is the first time i am watching him drunk. And it makes so much sense. It's like i get him like never before. We're on the same frequency. makes sense with all his alcoholic past.
That's the difference between an experienced stand-up comedian/comedic actor and an old blasé and boring talkshow host who never writes his own jokes. Leno is the same way. He couldn't be funny even if he tried.
But Leno is an experienced comic. His monologues and segments were good. I'd rather contrast this to Kimmel, Meyers, Fallon, and Colbert. Those guys can't deliver, write, or talk. Of course, Craig is multi talented and conversational. He's up there with Dick Cavette and Carson. Conan is okay sometimes too, but too shallow and predictable for my taste.
@Keeby12 Umm... Conan and Jimmy Kimmel are MUCH funnier than Craig Ferguson. Although Craig Ferguson and Jay Leno are MUCH funnier then Letterman and Jimmy Fallon.
His roof leaks, power outage, camera glass breaks and nothing can stop him, because he is an improv genius...
You do know that every late night show has writers right? Not that he's not a great improvisator
@@LordMarlle You do know that Craig famously didn't have writers or any prompters. It was mostly just him and hisimprov skills.
@@samuellrodd1214 it wasn't that he didn't have writers or prompters, he just famously ignored them and did whatever he wanted
"I lost my sunglasses in the ocean. Somewhere out there, there's a dolphin looking cool"
Nah he looks like a fat 80's guy...
I love this man: not only he can pull off this show with a power failure but he also does one of the best monologues I’ve heard. priceless!
The most underrated late show host ever. His monologues were funny, his interviews were funny for audience and guest alike, he was witty quick but respectful. A really amazing host.
I miss Craig.
The best talk show host ever. Certainly the best interviewer.
SO much... 😭😭😭
I always have the biggest smile on my face when watching/or listening to Craig talk. I'd love to have a conversation with him. Only I'd probably freeze up.
He has all of these lined up. If and when it comes to it, his conversation jokes are probably designed to be reacted to.
@@JoshSweetvale nope. He's just really talented. That's why they're forcing other hosts from other shows to take cues from him. It's truly offensive honestly.
@Mastema you're both wrong. He's amazing and I am just a silly fan.
such a natural. the audience could hardly breathe
Lemony Snicket to be fair, they're highly controlled. They're specifically told when to laugh and to control/modify how they laugh, and to laugh whether they get the joke or not.

HE WAS THE BEST OF LATE-NIGHT TELEVISION.....😂😂😂😂🐰🐇🐰🐇💝😇🙏
Love him. Pure genius. I was feeling kinda low but he just made my day.
"well a..could you give him these *raises up soiled swimming trousers* and tell him *stare in a longing, almost satisfied posture*...thanks*smiles* " haha this is hilarious i favorited so many of his episodes i especially love the monologues.
"if it was 4 inches closer you would have been watching the late late show with tina ferguson...." hahahahaha fantastic
"WHAT? You can't be serious! I AM! What happened? Well, if you shut up I'll tell ya!":P:P:P:P:P
Ferguson is my King of Late Night.:) The man's a comic genius.:):):)
this is the first time i heard the full monologue on the power outage.
Thanks for posting!
This man is a genius.
"overweight with a sense of injustice" ... brilliant
LMAO
"Somewhere out there there is a dolphin looking cool"
XD best thing i've ever heard..lol
"i was batmaaaan! uuuhh" i cracked
hahahaha omg best monologe ever!!!
i wish he would just tell his stories more often like this
I miss Craig, he needs another show.
BeenThere DoneThat I want him back so bad! His show was the best because of how goofy and unpredictable he was
Yes please!!!
I think Craig is the best out of all of the Late night hosts still on air today.
Funniest talk show host ever.

THAT scottish accent! Peewrr bill! Luv it. :D
I'm watching Craig Ferguson while eating marshmellow fluff. Yum
The 2 dislikes were from people who should have payed the damn power bill.
Oneone111one now there’s 31, that’s 29 people who should’ve paid the damn power bill.
@@ajstyles5704 yeah, the other two are val kilmer and the dolphin
Back in a time where late night comedy was actually funny!
I agree! The problem is I fear that CBS allows him to be so creative with the show because they figure "no one watches anyway," so in a way I hope he doesn't get the 11:30 slot b/c if he does, CBS will try to change the creative format to make it more "11:30-friendly."
6 years lol
weallbfree and then he went on to get a gay robot sceleton and 2 humans dressed as a horse.
I dont know how to tell you this, he no longer has a show
@@darrellgardner4561 I don't know how to tell you this, but you're responding to a ten year old comment.
@@tomservo75 Oh I'm well aware.
@ George Lim He had a band sort of, they only existed in Craig's mind however Alfrado Sauce and The Shy Fella's.
He's so funny. I wish he still drank. That would be awesome!
That Bob Barker thing was hilarious!!
When cnn did their little late night documentary amazed me how they basically didn’t mention Craig or how he went head to head w Conan and best him in the ratings often
ROFL XD
I loved how he said "Thanx"
That was awesome! xD
I loooove how he says 'purple' :)
How is this man not still on tv? Hes amazingly funny 😂😂😂
I saw this when it aired.
Friggin great!!!!
i love how he says power in the beginning
He could do anything
perfect monologue :)
Wow. He had a power outage twice??
It amezing how he able to continue on with littile power
hi dibls!nice to see you, benefactor
How did they power the cameras?
I laughed so hard I almost threw up!
I Love Craig Ferguson....please bring Him back!!!!
I adore Craig and appreciate this posting. He is brilliant. I’m sorry I didn’t watch him while he was actually on tv. I just wish I didn’t have to listen to the exaggerated laughter, especially that one woman. Yikes! It’s like the audience is laughing but not listening.

"Governor Schwarzenegger" still doesn't sound normal 14 years later
"Overweight with a sense of injustice" HA!
There's a lady laughing that sounds like my dog barking
He's hilarious. Maybe they should leave them in the dark more often.
i'm not american so i dunno, is the lls still on CW nw? or did it change networks?
This is crazy because it looks like he's in purgatory. Lol
That would be so embarrassing!
Purple, the color of Royalty.
Color of clergy...
tina ferguson
There's always one audience menu with the same repetitive, seemingly forced laugh that stands out above all others.
@Biab90 How about Power Bill? ;)
I laughed so hard, it became some kind of painful endurance exercise. I kept having to pause the video to keep from passing out.
Well, that what it felt like anyhow.
TOO FUNNY.....😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The studio has generators, and if these are Sony's BETACAM, they have batteries :D
lol same thing happened recently
Same with me. I always liked Craig, but I would always watch Conan, only occasionally flipping to Craig between commercials. I watch Craig every night now. Do you watch The Tonight Show with Conan?
That just happened
lmao, it happened again recently!!
Master dagger has lift
He's done that one before, of his trunks being ripped off... and the waistband. But in the previous bit the guy was called Bob. lol
wait, if the power is out why are the cameras working.......
So sad he repented and moved back to Scotland.
repented is a hard word.... Well maybe its just a change of scenery ?
@@manz007 No, he's done a miniseries about his return home where he openly apologized for hating Scotland, said how wrong he was and how it was all just fine and it was down to him and his attitude and drug abuse as a youth. Hobo Fabulous is the series.
I love Co Co. I love Craig, too.
battery backup
haha. blackout in LA
ive been a fan. This is the first time i am watching him drunk. And it makes so much sense. It's like i get him like never before. We're on the same frequency. makes sense with all his alcoholic past.
Come back Craig Ferguson!!!
CBS should of tried harder to keep him, His replacement sucks. never made it threw a whole episode.
No. I love Craig but I can't stand Conan. Frankly, I think NBC should try to steal him and let him do the Tonight Show!
That's the difference between an experienced stand-up comedian/comedic actor and an old blasé and boring talkshow host who never writes his own jokes. Leno is the same way. He couldn't be funny even if he tried.
Wait a minute, did you just insult my Craig
But Leno is an experienced comic. His monologues and segments were good. I'd rather contrast this to Kimmel, Meyers, Fallon, and Colbert. Those guys can't deliver, write, or talk. Of course, Craig is multi talented and conversational. He's up there with Dick Cavette and Carson. Conan is okay sometimes too, but too shallow and predictable for my taste.
Fake.... . Options would be considered for a TV show.
@Keeby12 Umm... Conan and Jimmy Kimmel are MUCH funnier than Craig Ferguson. Although Craig Ferguson and Jay Leno are MUCH funnier then Letterman and Jimmy Fallon.
