Craig Ferguson Retiring From the Late Late Show

[Amasov]

Well this sucks, I can take losing Dave, but I'm going to really miss Craig.
I wonder if this thread will derail like the Letterman one did if they pick another Scottish guy to host The Late Late Show.

All these late night changes.

Jay Leno retires from The Tonight Show.
Jimmy Fallon begins hosting The Tonight Show.
Seth Meyers begins hosting Late Night.
David Letterman announces retirement.
Stephen Colbert named replacement.
And now Craig Ferguson announces his departure.

Unreal.

I'm saddened to hear this, but not surprised. I hope he gets a new show on a basic cable network or with a streaming service. That way the censorship could be to a minimum ad he could really let loose.

Problem is CBS owns the horse and the robot so they wouldn't be able to come along.

He will be missed.

Well, if they ever reboot Trek again, they know who to call to play Scotty...

(Not joking, BTW.)

Dude, he isn't dead.

What?! Are you going to say say that Santa isn't real next?!

He's real, I see him every weeknight.

A real shame. Craig is the best talk show host on television. Not surprising, once he got passed up for Letterman's time slot, but disappointing nonetheless. I'll miss him.

He's repeatedly said he's not interested in Dave's job. He even said it last night.

I hear Craig has handpicked his successor, a fellow Scot in David Moyes. I don't see how it could possibly go wrong.

I miss Tom Snyder.

And Carson of course...

 

[Locutus of Bored]

Such a shame. His show was the only late night chat show that actually made me laugh.

Same here, though I'm hoping Colbert might be able to change that.

Some of the guest hosts are amazing. Lauren Graham will be hosting tomorrow. Drew Carey went was too much into him buying things for strippers, Wayne Bradey was amazing and makes me wish it was him.
