I say Craig saved himself, He isn't the guy who can sit in his show and talk politics. And people get offended by second these days..he wouldn't last a day...bless him he was the best
Thing is though, Craig COULD talk politics if he wanted to. He's a very clever, well-read and informed guy. He's also fucking hilarious! I wonder if it's because people like Billy Connolly, Frankie Boyle and Craig Ferguson come from Scotland- and Glasgow specifically. Scotland (and Ireland) are rain-drenched and can be desolate places. People who live there then tend to need entertainment and a funny perspective. I think that's why there's so many comedians in Scotland and Ireland. Craig is only entertaining people incidentally. Primarily, he's entertaining himself. By the way, all three Glasgow comedians happen to be part Irish.
@@velvetunderpants44 Craig's seems to be a very centrist guy. An old school liberal. I don't think he'd be happy constantly bagging on Trump every single night for 5 years straight like every other show in existence. He's far too creative for that.
Love this man! :D He's very introspective, especially in the part about feeling it'd be unfair to the people talking part in the interview if he talked crap about them. He seems really emotionally intelligent, y'know?
Doesn really matter. No matter what you ask, you cant apply it to anything useful :P The last person asking about stranges interview was really the one wasting her question of all of em. If you watch him over the years you kow he doesn smacktalk hes guest
Ahhhh.... the best, most genuine, hilarious host ever, being interviewed by the antithesis of all of those things. I've seen specials where she's a shrew behind the scenes to the staff. miss Craig, he's just so awesome and Cordon is not even 1/8 of the sincere charisma.
I'd have an instant answer to the most awkward guest and that would be his last interview with Tony Shalhoub (Monk). Honestly, I felt embarrassed for Craig. Tony was acting very strange and took everything Craig threw at him at face value and I remember when Craig was talking about having an awkward pause with his last guest, he said "well I think we've already had one before the break". Never saw Shalhoub back....
One of the strangest interviews to watch was when Kate Mara showed up admittedly "messed up" on something. He did a great job of turning it into comedy, but it was still weird as heck.
Who else would have answered "Hippo" other than the most original, unique and creative host in any talk show ever ? #ScottsRocks #FergyRoyalty #Dancin'Machine
Craig Ferguson came along at the right time, he did 10 yrs of a show that folks came on, talked a bit, had a few laughts, never once did you hear him go off on a political rant. It seems we are headed down that long slope towards bottom and its not going to be a good ending....
This guy is brilliant, smart, funny, and humane. I now feel compelled to read one of his books. Did he have something to do with Doc Martin, which was great for its first few seasons?
Yes he did but indirectly. The character of Doc Martin originated in the film Saving Grace, for which Craig was co-writer and starred in. Because of that, he received writer credit in the Doc Martin series. Saving Grace is probably his best known film, and was well received.
Craig is always best when he's allowed to riff. I didnt like him as a game show host, too limiting. He's great here. He needs another talk show, for the sanity of the world
He did 5 interviews w/ the dude. They weren't so much strange as wacky & Craig loved wacky. BTW, I've seen past interviews Ferg did w/ others & the worst interviews he copped to were Jim Caviezel & Macy Gray.
Many, if not most, people don't want to be challenged, but would feel lonely if not engaged. This show fits that mold, and tries very hard not to offend a sedentary audience. Funny thing that Rachel herself is an interesting, vibrant person, but her show is not.
yeah I'd agree the strangest interview for sure would be talking with your mom after watching a video montage of her having a lunch date with RZA. Sure as hell was a surreal moment for me.
If it's someone pronouncing your name incorrectly, ok, then maybe I can see you getting irritated and correcting them. But why care how someone pronounces another person's name? Most Americans pronounce it as "Creg." I pronounce it as Creg. I can see it annoys you, and maybe I should just accept that it does and stop trying to figure out why. :)
It's funny because it doesn't really bother the people who's name's are being mispronounced but it bothers others. My name is Lauren and 95% of the time my name is pronounced Loren- I'm just so used to it now that it feels like they are both my names...Now my mother is another story- it really bugs the hell out of her. She says "Her name is LAAAAAH-ren, LAAAAAH-ren! There are no O's in her name!"
D""#$ it if he comes back to late late late show , Old golden era he looks so old with it Beard .... Nothing like the legendary guy who made everyone laughed at the end of night :) really he's The Best for what he do :( .
Weird seeing him drink from anything but his snake cup. I figured his weirdest interview would have been with someone like Andy Dick, Russel Brand, or Gary Busey. I'm not for sure about Andy Dick or Gary Busey, but I know he has interviewed Russel Brand. I've seen Kimmel interview the other two though. They were some strange interviews. Weird, but I'm not judging. They were all entertaining interviews
Please tell me this isn't a clickbait... I know Craig and I've seen weird, I'm tinfoiled here. Let's see... EDIT: OK, I read that title wrong. I wonder if they wrote it slightly ambiguous intentionally... anyways, good to see Craig still exited about his underpants.
Fun fact: Emanuel Swedenborg was actually born in ......Sweden. Check out his most popular book "heaven and hell" free at @t. You know it makes NO cents.
Wish he was still on the late late show.
Imagine if HE was the Tonight Show host.
He'd probably be really miserable now ..
@@Omi791 why?
Indeed! He was my favourite of favourites!
@@KyleCorwith he should still be hosting for sure Craig and leno
"my mother may not be a celebrity to you but she is to me"
What a lovely human being!
Please give this man a talk show!!!! The world needs it
He hosted the Late Late Night Show for years
@@GravityGrave r/whoooosh
He should have a podcast
He had hisnown show for 10 years. He also had a radio show for a few years.
All fantastic.
The late late show with craig ferguson look it up please!! It's gold
He left a huge void when he left late night TV. I hope he decides to do it again someday. He's one of the best at it.
He's too smart for this show
@@samjenkins2625 that was a positive point tho
But not too good for it
Facts
He doesn’t want to show his playful energy before these social justice feminist pull me too on him
@Rip Torn . Buddy lol watch his old interviews and tell me if he’s keeping that same energy
Miss Craig. We need him back!
why do you call Miss Craig him?
"What's the strangest celebrity interview you've done?"
"This one..."
Hahah Don rickles humour
I say Craig saved himself, He isn't the guy who can sit in his show and talk politics. And people get offended by second these days..he wouldn't last a day...bless him he was the best
I so agree with this. Craig Ferguson and Jon Stewart retired at the right time. I miss them but they deserved to be free and rest.
So true.
Thing is though, Craig COULD talk politics if he wanted to.
He's a very clever, well-read and informed guy.

who were in his audience...
Any show with Craig Ferguson on it is a good show.
Great answer on that last question, Craig classy like always and aging well.
I would have said Jeff Goldblum, strange in a good way. He just outweirds Craig.
@@MM-dq2pi Jeff is indeed nuts in a good way, ten goldblums out of ten 😄

One of the best interviews of Craig was with his sister.

Strange? Strange? It's the best interview ever
Kate Mara was in Heat, that's all, nothing strange about that
That’s probably my fav interview of his.
@Walter K Bauer 90% of the female guests wanted to eat him lmao
She was like a truffle pig but she sniffing out some "D" and it was GLORIOUS
Nice to see Craig but this show really isn't aimed at me...
Craig is life
Who else would have answered "Hippo" other than the most original, unique and creative host in any talk show ever ? #ScottsRocks #FergyRoyalty #Dancin'Machine
I wish he had succeeded Peter Capaldi as the 13th Doctor. Maybe he can be the 14th.
Another Scottish Doctor, oh the perils of the universe must be for such awesomeness to occur.
That would have been nice, ever since the Doctor became a woman, I stopped watching.
3 Scottish actors played the doctor so far.
Did the host just say unironically "And then you're like... awk-ward!"
Oh dear.
They don't make talk show hosts like they used to anymore. This video is pretty much proof.
Is unironically even a word? Are you trying to say that this entire interview was awkward?
*in Geoff voice*
Awk-ward!
Balls.

No snake mug ! #TRIGGERED
I remember that mug.
Just bought one
Craig. Miss you on TV. Come back soon :-)
I miss Craig on the late night tweety box. A side from Johnny Carson, he was the best late night t.v. guy.
I actually think he was better than Carson.
agreed

I love craig 💙
An off camera conversation with these two would be great! I want brunch with them
For me, the strangest interview would have been Jennifer Tilly. She never let Craig talk the whole interview.
Easy day of work for these hosts when Craig is a guest
Craig is always best when he's allowed to riff. I didnt like him as a game show host, too limiting. He's great here. He needs another talk show, for the sanity of the world
Craig is awesome 😎
His strangest celebrity interview must of been the late late show with robin Williams , that guy was out of control!!
He did 5 interviews w/ the dude. They weren't so much strange as wacky & Craig loved wacky.
BTW, I've seen past interviews Ferg did w/ others & the worst interviews he copped to were Jim Caviezel & Macy Gray.
Did anybody else hear that snort at 0:02? The hell was that?
I think it was suppressed laughter and a poor edit point.
3:49 if you want the question in the title.
Hippo 🦛 that’s a great thing to come back as in the next life time
Waheedah's Recipes He was right about the Hippos, they kill more people every year than lions do.
@@soulcornflake1 I didn't know, I thought elephants killed more people, I never heard of hippos killing people.
Nellie K. Adaba Don't know how many people are killed by elephants, but I think people assume hippos aren't aggressive and not fast, when they are.
such silly questions except for the last one.
I miss Craig 😢
The follow-up question that may have only had this one possibility to have been asked:
“Would you call it a ‘String Cheese Incident?’”
He has answered this before and said it was Macy Gray lol
I drove Rachel to a wedding in Sonoma....she is exactly what you see....
I really love Rachael's laughter :) makes me smile every time
The purist definition of shallow. The show and audience that is, not the guest.
that's white people from the suburbs for you
Many, if not most, people don't want to be challenged, but would feel lonely if not engaged. This show fits that mold, and tries very hard not to offend a sedentary audience. Funny thing that Rachel herself is an interesting, vibrant person, but her show is not.
@@tvtitlechampion3238 I like your comment. Well reasoned.
Very strange to see a good quality video of Craig on YT, most of them look like their from the 80s 😂
3:40 is where she asks the interview
How in the bloody hell can over 100 people dislike this? I know who I'M not having a beer with!
Maybe people who hate Rachel or Craig. I love them both.
He needs to come back to some show
when he interviewed sharon stone and she later on sent her assistant to ask him on a date
Smart answers. Very smart. Probably not true, but smart.
I remember his mother being on and then his sister. They live up to Glasgow reputation for being quick witted.
yeah I'd agree the strangest interview for sure would be talking with your mom after watching a video montage of her having a lunch date with RZA. Sure as hell was a surreal moment for me.
Craig should be a game show host.
It’s really funny that Racheal says “mean people” suck when she herself treats people like crap.
Band?
Man this guy would make a great host. He should have his own show
He had his own Late Night Show.
😂

What a handsome old man

"I remember your kind" oh boy..
3:50 is when the question is asked.

Go to 3:45
I'm shocked that there was an American who pronounced craig properly
We just say it differently.
@@PerthTowne if the name Greg didn't exist then "Creg" would maybe be less annoying

What a smart badass funny man.
I like Rachael. Lots to hold on to. And feel around. Rub her happy. It will be totally R-Rated.

Craig Ferguson, the best late late show. Very stupid of CBS to cancel his show.
They didn't cancel it. He quitted.
@@saraskywalker2127 They should have paid him more.
Unfortunately for CBS, I don't think money was a deciding factor for Craig. He's a guy who is attached to his principles.
