My God. I love nearly everything Gaiman wrote. Comics, episodes, books, short stories... But it still shocks me how funny and loveble is as a person himsfelf like here. He Is really fantastic
12:13 "Do you know, honey, I believe that guy was actually a swarm of bees!" Probably one of the funniest sentences ever put together by a human being.
I read (I believe) in an intro in one of the sandman tpbs that Dream was based loosely on a combo of Robert Smith, the singer from Bauhaus and Neil Gaiman himself.
Maybe I let my imagination go a bit too far... but don't you think having Neil and Craig as writing partners would be an awesome experience? Imagine sitting in the living room with them just riffing back and forth on a story for a few hours. Even if the story never got made, the experience alone would be untoppable.
I think the last 2 minutes before the Awkward Pause were definitive proof that they need to write something together. Preferably with sofas and people running from Lovecraft without pants.
I dunno. I think the Awkward Pause was definite proof they need to write together. They worked out a whole outline in 20 seconds and then created a wonderful bit of improv.
I'm definitely in that super fanatical group of fans of Neil Gaiman. Since Neverwhere, Neil has ruined quite a few books for me. There's something about his extreme level of "showing" (Visualization) rather than "telling" (Ethics text 101) that paints not only a vivid picture, but an experience for me. He's awesome.
My Mum was an original founding member of the behind the sofa club as she has proudly proclaimed on many occasions :) my friends little ones are now members too, we went to see it for the 5oth anniversary at the cinema, , 3 generations of Who fans ranging from the first generation right up to the present day, taking up one whole row of the cinema, bought a tear to me eye's that did :)
Wow its sooo rare to see an interviewer and the celebrity, who gets interviewed by her/ him, beeing on the exact same wave and chat with wach other in sich a natural and therefore amazingly funny way... Havent seen that on the Fallon- show yet...
Interesting to see them talking about people they know in common, and then talking about Doctor Who, and now Peter Capaldi, who knows both of them, is the Doctor.
Alexa Penn There is no other late night show host for me but Craig Ferguson. I mean who else has swearing puppets?!? Who else keeps a TARDIS on their desk?!?
Ellen Murphy LOL. i forgot about the Tardis. he also had a mug with a snake wrapped around it. i wonder why? a conversation thingie?. :) Keep safe 🌷✨🌿🌸🌱🌼🌷
Alexa Penn. I hope you are well. I just found out that Neil Gaiman lives really close to me. ( Don't worry Neil I'm a safe fan). I like it when people reply to me too. I wish I could send you back a TARDIS emoji or something cool Doctor Who thing like that.
Neil Gaiman wrote one of the best Who episodes ever: The Doctors Wife. Please Neil we need a new showrunner on Who please.Might you please please please consider?Please. At the very least how bout a cool episode on Who about bees. Maybe Neil could be the next Doctor? Yes please Neil be our next Doctor and be showrunner at the same time.With Craig as your loveable but inept companion.
+Meeny McSweeny My best attempt to put his writing into one genre would be fantasy, although for quite a few of his stories will have parts that would be considered creepy if not scary.
i find grant morrison to be more compelling of a person, but neil is the better writer. allen moore's got em beat in both areas though. but, that, in a nutshell, is really the holy trinity of comic book writers imo and prob many others' as well.
reading the harry potters? what an immediate insult to his very next guest! lol jk rowling basically just ripped of neil's books of magic. just see for yourself if you're not convinced.
The reason this show is not around anymore is because Ferguson is too busy trying to get his stupid gags in rather than actuallyinterviewing his guests

It's super cool how they immediately fell in love with each other. lol
Whenever a Brit comes on the show they tend to know each other 50% faster than an American. If they're Scots? BFFs. Craig will be missed :(
"Do they say hello?"
"No, they are bees"
My God. I love nearly everything Gaiman wrote. Comics, episodes, books, short stories... But it still shocks me how funny and loveble is as a person himsfelf like here. He Is really fantastic
Craig: "You keep bees?"
Neil, in the most joyous, ludic voice possible:
"I doooo!!!"
I love their banter. Could watch them talk for hours.
"In detention?" 😂
I write and used raise red worms in my basement to make black gold (worm castings ) for my spring gardens. Yes writers are different 🤣😎🙌❤️
This is the most ridiculous and endearing interview lol they are so weird, i love it
12:13 "Do you know, honey, I believe that guy was actually a swarm of bees!"
Probably one of the funniest sentences ever put together by a human being.

@@dysmissme7343 and dance!
Best. Interview. Ever. Loved it. "I will bring *a* bee."
The banter they have is amazing!
What just happened? Also Neil Gaiman is a wonderful human being.
A person who is actually a super-cooperative swarm of bees. That's a brilliant idea!
"Swarm" on the old Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends show (NBC in the 1980's) was a super-villain that was actually a collective of bees.
I was just going to comment the same thing. :-)
He looks like Morpheus.
+Moon Glow Morpheus was based on Robert Smith, lead singer of The Cure
I read (I believe) in an intro in one of the sandman tpbs that Dream was based loosely on a combo of Robert Smith, the singer from Bauhaus and Neil Gaiman himself.
Nick Burns And Ian McCulloch.
true true , very true
@@ishatonthecarpet.hopemymom898in the intro to preludes and nocturnes neil says he worked with the artist to base sandman off himself
Two of my favorite people on one stage

Agreed..

Great guy, great writer! Gaiman is the real deal.
He looks so, so young. Incredible that American Gods is now almost 20 years old.

Nothing wrong with being told a story though

This man is charisma incarnated. Good looks, beautiful voice, wits and the gift of words.
It's hard to resist his appeal.
I love how Craig still ends up pulling the TARDIS away from Neil, the cruel man...
I think that made this the best Awkward Pause EVER.
Gaiman is a legend!! Delirium is simply amazing...where's my doggy gone? Xx
Wow all British people talk about is the queen and doctor who.... The rumors are true
yes because that's all that Americans ask us about
+mjs0711 That rhymed.
mjs0711 Americans love the Queen and Doctor Who - which is why.
Ironic considering the Americans rejected the British monarchy to create the United States
The Queen is German and Doctor Who is from Galifrey. Try and keep up.
The Ocean at the End of the Lane is a mastwrpiece.
I love it every time I read it, and never remember what it's about.
@@helgebrekke Same! (Somehow)
Neil and Craig in one video?!?
Two of my favourite men in the world together!!!
*_*
In love with Neil...
Wow its sooo rare to see an interviewer and the celebrity, who gets interviewed by her/ him, beeing on the exact same wave and chat with wach other in sich a natural and therefore amazingly funny way... Havent seen that on the Fallon- show yet...
that's a shame Neil only been on ONE talk show
but at least he went to the best of them
The Sandman is fucking fantastic!!
Interesting to see them talking about people they know in common, and then talking about Doctor Who, and now Peter Capaldi, who knows both of them, is the Doctor.
So he was basically talking about binge watching before it became a mainstream term and people said "marathon"
SpookyRoseV it’s weird that he made the binge drinking comparison too. Definitely a cultural zeitgeist moment.
That was great I laughed so much. Thanks.
Craig Ferguson was really “on” with Gaiman - i love both of them (actually, he was my favorite late night host).
Alexa Penn There is no other late night show host for me but Craig Ferguson. I mean who else has swearing puppets?!? Who else keeps a TARDIS on their desk?!?
Ellen Murphy LOL. i forgot about the Tardis. he also had a mug with a snake wrapped around it. i wonder why? a conversation thingie?. :)
Keep safe 🌷✨🌿🌸🌱🌼🌷
Alexa Penn yes he does. At first I thought his mug was half a Dalek. Please keep safe too.☺
Ellen Murphy thanks - you’re the first to say it back to me. i really like that 😁🌷✨🌿
Alexa Penn. I hope you are well. I just found out that Neil Gaiman lives really close to me. ( Don't worry Neil I'm a safe fan). I like it when people reply to me too. I wish I could send you back a TARDIS emoji or something cool Doctor Who thing like that.
I don't know if you will agree to this, but I think that bee story is such a fun idea for a Gaiman book.
The way he speaks
That was the best awkward pause in history.
Craig, make it more obvious that you have a huge crush on Neil
At the moment, this is the closest that I can be to Neil Gaiman (as a fan) and I'm ok with that.
He looks like Dream
fantastic and now we know where Gaiman's s.s. about bees came from!!
I thought so as well!
The colors in the thumbnail looked beautiful and reminded me of Coraline's color palette (the other mother's kitchen at night)
The best awkward pause
Stop aww I love him.
Neil Gaiman wrote one of the best Who episodes ever: The Doctors Wife. Please Neil we need a new showrunner on Who please.Might you please please please consider?Please. At the very least how bout a cool episode on Who about bees. Maybe Neil could be the next Doctor? Yes please Neil be our next Doctor and be showrunner at the same time.With Craig as your loveable but inept companion.
That might as well be morphieus sitting up there
I miss Craig so much! Still want him to do a Big Finish Audio Doctor Who with Peter Capaldi!
I could listen to this man read the phone book.
Worry the queen will come and get you? Not if you hide behind the sofa! 😂
genius!!
So funny!
I don't know who this Neil Gaiman is but he is cool! What genre does he write?
+Meeny McSweeny My best attempt to put his writing into one genre would be fantasy, although for quite a few of his stories will have parts that would be considered creepy if not scary.
+Meeny McSweeny Read "The Sandman" Comics ;)
Coraline.He wrote the book which then became an animated film..And American Gods.Coming soon as a TV series
absolutiontheory98 He is asking for genres......
+Meeny McSweeny I would say sci/fantasy and yes he is very cool
I'd date them both.
i find grant morrison to be more compelling of a person, but neil is the better writer. allen moore's got em beat in both areas though. but, that, in a nutshell, is really the holy trinity of comic book writers imo and prob many others' as well.
They are a good buzz though. Hup hup.
Chalula? Cholulu? Kathulu? Honolulu?
@lucradiste Craig got him back in 2010. He was built by Grant Imahara from Mythbusters. Isn't he cute?
I wonder who will be the Doctor after Jody Whittaker: Neil Gaiman, or Amanda Palmer, or Benedict Cumberbatch, or Lara Pulver?
Holy fuck let him talk
reading the harry potters? what an immediate insult to his very next guest! lol jk rowling basically just ripped of neil's books of magic. just see for yourself if you're not convinced.
Damn Craig Ferguson is so try hard. Chill man
LionelWitchieWardrob So would you.
I don't think you 'get' Craig
The laugh tracks suck
The reason this show is not around anymore is because Ferguson is too busy trying to get his stupid gags in rather than actuallyinterviewing his guests
Craig Ferguson talks too much.
Craig Ferguson has got to be one of the worst interviewers and comedians in history
