Day after day, five days a week, this has to be the most consistently funny show on television at the moment.
I laugh out loud more often during one of Ferguson's programs than in a week of watching anything else. I haven't watched one night yet that I haven't laughed - hard.
I DVR it now so if I fall asleep I can still watch.

It's like just hanging out with an old buddy. Unrehearsed casual chatting and bull****ing. If it is rehearsed the man is a genious. I think the casual goofyness of it is what appeals to me most. I started DVR'ing it since I'm old and go brain dead at work if I stay up that late. Well more brain dead than my norm...

Craig Ferguson + Kate Beckinsale = Best TV Ever

I started watching him when he first took over.
Like you guys, I've never laughed so hard. All his "cheeky wee monkey" and other stuff he used to say cracked me up.
When he became a citizen, he was hilarious all through the process.
I remember posting about him a long time ago and got some feed back that he wasn't good. Can't remember how long ago that was.
I've always loved watching him.TJamesW_Phinfan, adamprez2003, NaboCane and 1 other person like this. -

Absolutely love Craig. His interview of Desmond Tutu was Emmy-worthy. What a funny, charming, intelligent guy. Love Wavey the Crocodile.

Exactly!
He just seems like he's freestyling it, and the result is refreshing.TJamesW_Phinfan and jetssuck like this. -

Since we are on the topic of late night talk shows does anyone else think Jimmy Fallon is just absolutely terrible?
The guy just acts so nervous and his jokes fall flat a lot of the time that it makes me feel bad for him watching the show. Is that part of his routine?...I never watched him do comedy before. -
the mr. wick show is what my older brother and i call it.
always thought he was hilarious on the drew carey showdolphindebby and NaboCane like this. -

He is ****ing brilliant, on too late so I have to DVR it too, my wife thinks I am nuts but **** it it's brilliant. As someone said his improv makes it feel like it is a couple guys chatting in a basement and nothing forced. Best show there is and have felt that way for ages.
I love this one:

Do yourselves a favor and if you can, watch last Monday's episode with Carl Reiner; Craig holding his own with the preeminent comic legend alive today is worth the effort.
Also Wednesday night's show with Eddie Izzard - those two together = sheer brilliance.
Anyone else catch his 1000th show...all puppets? -
Craig is the best on late night. I rarely am up that late and don't have time to watch but maybe a couple hours of TV during the week. But he is fantastic. 'Consistently funny' was a good way to put it. He's in his element more than anybody else out there.
I hate the rehearsed interviews. I don't know why everybody insists on that format. It doesn't appear at all that he goes over much of anything. I think that's signified a bit by how he tears up the card when they sit down.
The show doesn't seem overly rehearsed overall. I guess that's part of what makes it great. He's just a naturally funny guy who's great on his feet.adamprez2003 and NaboCane like this. -
Heh, I'd surfed here via New Posts while waiting for something to finish. Didn't even pay attention to where it was.

Ferguson, on the death of JD Salinger:
"Catcher in the Rye is considered, of course, the signature book about teenage angst. In 1951, disaffected teens were into well-crafted prose; this was before teens became sexy vampires and expressed themselves through their abs."Frumundah Finnatic, jetssuck, sking29 and 1 other person like this. -
