Late Late Show Highlights

Letterman, Leno, Fallon and Kimmel are all off this week. Who’s around to save the day? The answer is Mr. Craig Ferguson. His show was new, but I get the feeling it was taped earlier, much much earlier.

The pre-opening credit bit stared the always entertaining Wavy Rancheros:

I don’t think Craig told a single monologue joke. I’m guessing that since the show wasn’t taped today, and Craig hasn’t figured out how to see into the future, he couldn’t make jokes about current events. Nonetheless, the monologue was entertaining, but we’ll skip it.

Evangeline Lilly was the first couch guest. She just finished six years on Lost. Evangeline had a lot of energy. She made the interview kinda weird, but in a good way:

Charlyne Yi was the second couch guest. I wasn’t looking forward to this interview, but I was pleasantly surprised by how entertaining it turned out to be:

The ending was hilarious:

Good show. I really appreciated that Craig had a new show, even if it had been recorded earlier. I give it:
