After years of whining and complaining about how small his studio is, Craig Ferguson finally got a new one for the show. Yesterday on The Late Late Show he debuted the new stage and it is bigger with much more wood to make the ladies and Geoff Peterson very happy! It looks the same, but they added a fake fireplace, a space with a window, a better LA background and the best part is that Secretariat got his own door to come in whenever it is called for. It is a whole new look for the CBS show, but the host remains the same old Scot he has always been.
I can’t wait to see the new set in person, but sadly I know that my friends who got me into the show will get to see it first. I will be stuck babysitting their kid that was conceived while watching The Late Late Show, which probably explains why she does such a great Scottish accent when I ask her to do it. She also does a great Geoff Peterson and maybe that explains why she has such big electric blue eyes…
When Craig Ferguson renegotiated his contract with CBS for The Late Late Show, he asked for a bigger studio and they gave it him. Well yesterday the Scot aired his final show from Stage 28 and said goodbye to the small leaky studio that had a lot of electrical problems in a way only he could. Now he is moving on up to the place where Pat Sajack used to tape his talk show. Does anyone remember how well that worked out for the Wheel of Fortune host? Let’s hope that Craig has better luck there. And let’s pray they remember to pack Geoff Peterson and take him too!
I will miss his old stage. I also wonder what will he complain about now, now that he got a bigger studio.
BTW the new stage will debut on Monday, August 27th…if all goes according to plan. I say that because things just have a way of working out for him like that.
Stephen King is going to be a guest on The Late Late Show tonight on CBS at 12:37a and he told Craig Ferguson the one story he has never been able to finish. That unwritten book is called Ladies Room and it is about a rest room in an airport where women go in and they don’t come out. Their male partners are outside waiting and waiting, and their females never return to them. Only problem is that he can’t figure out what is happening in that bathroom, so that is why he never wrote it. If he only knew, it would scare him more than his books.
The one thing King did figure out is what is plans are for his selling his books after his death. Craig and I disagree with his plan.
BTW tonight is all about the authors on LLS because Dave Barry is also a guest. And then when he is done The Rock Bottom Remainders are going to perform in a rare television appearance. Never heard of them? Well the band is composed of Dave Barry, Stephen King, Amy Tan, Maya Angelou, Cynthia Heimel, Sam Barry, Ridley Pearson, Scott Turow, Joel Selvin, James McBride, Mitch Albom, Roy Blount Jr., Barbara Kingsolver, Robert Fulghum, Matt Groening, Tad Bartimus and Greg Iles. Let’s just their musical number will be something to write about. So make sure to watch this episode of Stephen King is going to get you!
BTW am I the only one who couldn’t stop looking at King’s crotch? Who knew he really had the big balls to go along with his scary stories that have kept us all up for at least one night in our lives!
Here is The Rock Bottom Remainders performing for the “last” time together last night on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. That is the the smartest tune you and I will ever hear!
Edward Norton was on the Late Late Show and Craig Ferguson commented to him how he does a lot of fighting in his movies. So the Fight Club narrator told him about using fake sticky blood for that infamous movie. So the CBS late night host asked him if he “ever had blood and a cut in your hand?” Norton responded with, “I had my period where I put my hand…” And as the audience started to laugh; he realized what he said and why they were laughing, so he tried to backtrack but it was too late. Norton is just so freaking cute when he is embarrassed that I just had to share it with you. I had the same feeling about him during this chat as I did when I saw him in Keeping the Faith for the first time. Seriously how has he never won an Oscar because I think he is the greatest actor of his generation. Better than George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise combined.
Vince Vaughn normally is a guest on late night talk shows, but yesterday the Wedding Crasher crashed The Late Late Show and pretended like he was one of the audience members on an episode he was not scheduled to be on. Well Craig Ferguson wasn’t going to have it, so he confronted the Psycho star about it. It was then that the CBS host realized the Swinger is friends with his robot Geoff Peterson and all was OK. That was until Vaughn kept checking out Ferguson’s cool, dry place…
BTW is it just me or has Vaughn really changed for the better since he got married and had a kid?
