+ 'this time of year christmas music is everywhere', craig ferguson shares, 'i'm sure somebody out there thinks i'm a scrooge because i dont love christmas music. 'come on craig', i can hear you say in that upbeat perky voice. 'get into the holiday spirit!' ive got plenty of holiday spirit, my front door is decorated with one of those giant novelty candy canes so when the carollers arrive i can beat them over the head with it! it annoys me when people call you a scrooge just cause you dont partake in forced merriment. i am not a scrooge because i dont hang missletoe everywhere. i am not a scrooge because i dont wear a christmas sweater. i am not a scrooge because i pooped in somebodys stocking at the cbs holiday party. probably shouldnt have said that last one. anyway, i'm taking a stand. i want to make this place a safe place for everyone who is called scrooge. its ok to be unhappy, this is a safe place for you to be miserable. you have a right to be grumpy obviously you cant sleep, you cant afford cable. you are my people, come on in. remember, ebenizer scrooge wasnt a kermudgin who didnt feel like going to another christmas party, he was a mizer and a bad person who wouldnt pay for a little boys operation. i havent done any of that... this year. i dont think that its being a scrooge to think that crazy out of control christmas excitement should be left for the young. i think its for young people. i remember as a kid i would go nuts for santa. we would leave out refreshments at christmas eve for him, a plate of cookies and a glass of wiskey'. the audience laughs. 'uh oh, unexpected laugh! why? wiskey? i'm from scotland! alcohol is built in to every major holiday! just cause you clap doesnt mean you are getting any wiskey! anyway, we would leave out at night a plate of cookies and a glass of wiskey. and then the next morning i would notice my dad's breathe would smell like wiskey and cookies. i was eight years old before it dawned on me that my dad had been making out with santa!'12-22-10
+ 'its the day before the day before christmas eve', craig ferguson reminds us, 'its the last hump day before christmas. t'was the last humpday before christmas and all through the show, charlie sheen is in the bedroom with hookers and blow! we can do better, t'was the humpday before christmas and all through l.a., everyone was asking 'is ferguson gay?'. i'll do one more, t'was the humpday before christmas and i'll tell you the truth, i'm glad its not snowing because we dont have a roof! thats no kidding! christmas is very special here in hollywood, a very special time. when people wish you a happy holidays here in hollywood, five percent of them actually mean it. if you havent started your christmas shopping now, dont worry theres plenty of time. no, you better start worrying, you're fucked! the shopping malls are a nightmare this week! a lot of people prefer christmas shopping online, and i understand. i like to shop wearing nothing but my underpants. thats why i always go to the mall! i actually buy most of my gifts from amazon. not the website, the actual rainforest. nothing says christmas cheer like a box full of poisonous spiders. if you have to go to the mall, heres a trick to avoid the crowds: go late. very late. like maybe after the mall is closed. all you need is a brick and a getaway car. and if you dont have time to go shopping, you can always improvise. 'merry christmas honey, i got you two presents: macaroni and cheese!' you know the store thats always open late? the 99 cents store. which is perfect for shopping, because, hey, 99 cents! and who doesnt love ukrainian chocolate?'12-21-10
+ 'you know today is the winter solstice', craig ferguson shares, 'this is when the earths axial tilt is furthest away from the sun. its the shortest day of the year today, is what i'm saying. so, congratulations, midgets. anyway, winter solstice means that its officially the first day of winter, though the people on the east coast probably argue that its been winter for a while. in scotland its been winter for about five thousand years, actually! if they ever saw the sun they would probably throw rocks at it. 'get back to hollywood, ye big shiny bastard!' actually, thats what they say to me when i go back to scotland! anyway, here in los angelas the winters are very harsh. we have to start wearing socks with our flip flops. the outdoor mall next to the studio here has a machine that sprays fake snow. we've got people walking around with fake tans with fake fur and they are getting fake snow on their fake boobs. i love this town, man!'12-20-10
+ 'its a great day today for the united states postal service', craig ferguson shares, 'its the busiest day of the year. the post office is so busy today, its handled more packages than when ricky martin, george michael, and lance bass we at a party at elton johns house and the pizza was delivered by the tsa! thats how many packages have been handled today! do you know how many pieces of mail were actually delivered today? let me tell you, this is scientifically accurate, fifty three gazillion. with all those packages around, the post office is bound to loose a few hundred. so keep that in mind, friends and family, when you dont receive anything from me. thats not true, i send out a lot of gifts during the holiday. every year i end up putting so many stamps on packages that the impossible happens: i get sick of licking stuff. anyway, to keep up with all the mail at this time of year, the postal workers work really hard, so its important to appreciate them. thats why i always great my mailman with a warm smile and an open robe. 'hey mr. ferguson, i've got a package for you!' as i do for you sir, as i do for you.'the golden harmonica
craig ferguson recently had one of his best guests on, billy connelly, and gave him the choice that he gives all his guests: 'awkward pause, or mouth organ?' a choice between a silent awkward moment between he and the guest, or a chance to play the harmonica with him. billy took the mouth organ and played marvelously! he lead the audience in a rousing rendition of 'oh, suzanna!'. after the audience applauds, craig shares 'if ever we had a guest who can actually play this damn thing, we would give them the golden mouth organ thats under glass! bring it out!' craig shouts! 'sir william connelly, let me present you with the golden harmonica of cbs!' with a cheer, billy connelly accepts! no wonder this guy is one of craig's favorites! winners of the golden mouth organ so far:1. billy connolly

+ 'theres a big movie opening today and i'm very excited about it', craig ferguson tells, 'its yogi bear! yogi bear opens, you know what that means? oscar season! i was looking forward to yogi bear but then i saw the trailor. its very scary! they turned him into a modern bear. i'm not sure, i like the old cartoon. you know, 'a tiskit a taskit, a picanic basket!' which i admit probably isnt the best rhyme i've ever heard, but its not bad for a bear. not only does the bear speak, but he understands the basic meter of poetry! so what if taskit isnt a real word, what you rather him say? 'a corn dog a cheeto, wheres my burrito?' theres my poem. anyway, i think this yogi bear movie is dangerously misleading. bears dont walk on their hind legs like yogi, you know when he goes after picnic baskets. its true bears can stand on their hind legs for short periods, but they eat their food on all fours. they are like david hassellhoff. now i can hear some of you asking 'craig, are you an idiot?' yes, i am, i make that clear hear night after night. and yes, i take life lessons from cartoons. once when i was younger i wanted to go somewhere so i put on roller skates and strapped an acme rocket to my ass. i didnt get anywhere but it was the best damn three minutes of my life! yogi bear is just pro bear propaganda. the makers behind the movie dont want you to know the truth: bears are not our friends! yes, bears are sharks of the forest. actually, bears are worse then sharks. if a shark attacked you its because it thought you were something else like a seal or a sandwich. but a bear will attack you just for the fun of it! or at least they do at the clubs i go to...'- billy connelly one of craig's best guests returns!
a christmas gift from jimmy fallon
'my christmas present just arrived from my secret admirer!' craig ferguson gushes, 'and when i say secret admirer i think i know who its from. geoff? no. dr phil? maybe. no, too expensive.' craig opens the card and reads what it says: 'dear craig, please accept this beautiful top notch christmas sweater as a symbol of our friendship. from: jimmy fallon'. 'now, i'm very excited about this because everyone knows that jimmy fallon is the best knitter in network television! oh, i know, you are like 'craig, your crazy! he's your direct competitor! you cant say how great jimmy is!' aw, come on, everybody knows it, jimmy is awesome, and he can knit like 12 gay men!' when craig opens it he shutters 'oh, its beautiful!' craig then goes on to share that he sent jimmy a gift too, which he is opening at the exact same time on nbc. it sure is nice to see two hosts who wont fall into that whole 'late night war' thing, huh?

+ 'its a very bittersweet week for those of us in the international brotherhood of talk show hosts', craig shares, 'this week we say goodbye to one of our own, he's retiring. i'm talking of course about larry king. the big kahona, the cheif of beef, the zen of cnn, the man with the glasses who will kick all your asses. larry's show, larry king live, has been on the air for a record 127 years. its in the record books! larry actually started in radio. if you are too young to remember radio, its like a blog that yelled at you. thats where larry developed his habit of taking phone callers, you know the callers who call in at larry king live. i always felt bad for larry when he didnt realize he was being prank called 'amanda hugnkiss, you there? get me amanda hugnkiss. she's not there? lets take our next caller, two guys from intercourse pennsylvania. harry balzack and hugh g. rection, you there?' larry is going out with a bang this week though, he had barbara strisand as a guest earlier tonight. 'brisket, people who eat brisket'. another reason i like larry king though, is he found a look and stuck with it: glasses, tie, suspenders. thats it! see those glasses, theyve actually got painted on eyes. that way larry can doze off when he interviews someone. thats true, i've been on the show and he interviewed me- he didnt blink for an hour!'+ a couple 'larry king of the jungle' in celebration of larry's last day.

+ 'the new michael jackson album, that came out, is truly ground breaking', craig ferguson shares, 'and ill tell you why: this marks the first time the music industry has capitalized on a deceased icon. with the possible exception of elvis, tupac, john lennon, bob marley, jimmy hendrix, jim morrison, kurt cobain, freddie mercury, janis joplin... but apart from them, this is the first time! frank sinatra's record company put out a bunch of albums after frank died. they were recorded in his latter days. some times he would get the words wrong, in concert he was very old. and it didnt exactly put an end to the rumors of his mafia ties. he would be like 'i've go you, under my house.' i look forward to your letters. anyway, the new michael jackson album is out today, its called simply 'michael'. i guess 'blatent money grab' is a bit on the nose. appearently michael jackson left behind hundreds of unfinished songs. thats nothing, i've got lots of unfinished stuff lying around my house. i've got half a bird house, some ikea furniture, a jigsaw puzzle. for the new michael jackson album the record company took 10 unfinished songs and they said 'the fans need to hear these songs and we will hire other people to finish them'. and thats what they did because record companies care about you. they care about you almost as much as cbs cares about you. if this works out, you will see another released next year, one the year after, there will be a movie with michael jackson in it, a chain of michael jackson restaurants opening up- billy jeans! 'come on down to billy jeans, you cant 'beat it'!' try our free coffee, it doesnt matter if its black or white!'craig hosts shoah gala

bridger, secretariat, and secretariat
geoff peterson, the robot skeleton sidekick, was supposed to go to a special event with secretariat, but due to the beating he got from russell brand earlier, the intern bridger had to go instead. bridger announces 'we are at hollywood park to cover the 'too hot trot' match race between secretariat, from the disney movie, sharky from 'medival times', and our own late late show secretariat'. bridger then goes into find out how the horses are groomed and fed for the race. as bridger explains, 'as a throughbred comedy horse, secretariat cant run without three bikini girls, theme music, and a little person'. they then proceed to do one of those 'benny hill' style fastforward runs around the field eventually ending with secretariat falling flat on his face!

+ 'theres a new movie opening today that i'm very excited about', craig ferguson shares, 'its called 'the tourist' with angelina jolie and johnny depp. they have never acted together but they make a great couple. one is a gorgous creature who i always picture having sweaty sex with brad pitt, and the other is angelina jolie. johnny and angelina have a lot in common, both have tattoos of exes on their arms. angelina used to have billy bob thornton and johnny used to have 'winona forever' and he had to change it to 'wino forever'. he did. i made the same mistake when i was young, i used to have a tattoo on my ass that said 'i love hitchcock' cause he's my favorite director. then we had a falling out and i had to get rid of some letters... now, johnny depp's girlfriend, actually girlfriend doesnt seem the right term, its the mother of his children. his partner, i suppose, is vanessa paradis. she's french. she's a french singer. i always wondered why the press doesnt give them a cool nickname like 'brangelina'. you could call them 'vajohnny'! why wont the press stop hounding vajohnny! everyone wants pictures of vajohnny! i'm in a good mood! hollywood really loves johnny depp. recently, though, johnny depp said this in an interview, he said that hes actually very anti hollywood. he said that to vanity fair in his trailor on the set of pirates of the caribbean 4. you cant much less hollywood than that, i suppose.'+ bridger goes to see a competition between secretariat, a horse from 'medival times', and criag's secretariat!

poor geoff!
russell brand, always a great guest on 'the late late show with craig ferguson', seems to have a problem with geoff peterson. or at least he did on his latest visit! after talking with craig for a bit, geoff peterson piped in and russell lashed out at him for fear of a robot uprising, it would seem. he poured his drink over geoff peterson's head! after a little more talking with craig, russell returned to geoff and pushed him around, causing the top of his head to fall off, then russell grabbed the geoff's mug and stand and bashed him over the head with it! poor geoff! it was pretty funny, though. sure hope geoff's circuits didnt get fried and he still works tomorrow...

+ 'now today is actually a very sad anniversary', craig ferguson states, 'it was thirty years ago today that john lennon died, which is a terrible loss still felt, of course. its impossible to over emphasize how important john lennon was to music. first with the beatles then solo. its an amazing journey. in just a few years the beatles went from 'she loves you, yeah yeah yeah' to the trippy stuff. the only modern act to evolve like that was when madonna went from material girl to a british dude. 'like a virgin, touched for the very first time!' the beatles went through many stages of their brief career, there was the fresh faced cherib phase, the shaggy around the ears phase, the beardy ass hippie phase. ive been doing this show six years and i'm stuck in one phase: crap. but the beatles are easily the best musicians named after a bug. sorry, adam ant. take that, scorpions. so long, lady bug gaga. when i first heard the beatles song 'love me do' i thought it was 'love me dude'. i guess you hear what you want to hear... all the beatles songs have just been released on the itunes of course. this is great news for people like me. and by people like me, i mean people who are too old to know how to download music illegally! 'eh, where does the coin go?' beatlemania was huge at the time. in the uk, when the beatles left for america for the first time, there were thousands of screaming fans showed up at the airport to see them go. it was the same when i left scotland for america, a very similar situation. except the people who showed up at the airport were just there to make sure i didnt come back!- russell brand hilarious and brilliant as ever, this time though, he took out a bit of rage on geoff peterson!

'hey kids! the sun'll come out tomorrow!' anyway, im doing the voice of owl in the next 'winnie the pooh' movie. thats true. i've been preparing by eating mice and trying to twist my head all the way around. my character in 'how to train your dragon' had a hook for a hand. i'm a method actor so i wore a hook for the entire month i did the film. nearly tore off my wiener. i think its weird though having an award show for cartoons. what do you ask the characters on the red carpet?

for the last month or so on 'the late late show with craig ferguson', craig has been obsessed with secretariat. it all stemmed from the disney film that recently came out. ever since the film came out craig has had the door bell ring during his tweets and emails segment and has seen a dancing secretariat come out to wild applause! craig has loved it so much that the doorbell has been ringing during other segments as well. whenever the horse comes out during an interview, craig and the guest jump up and start dancing. now craig is taking it to a new level: when ever a guest dances along to the secretariat song, he awards them a 'team secretariat' shirt! when talking to salman rushdie, the first to receive a shirt, he said 'because you danced with secretariat, i've issued a new regime of giving a free tee shirt to everyone who dances with secretariat!'recipiants so far:

'i hate john wayne, his american manliness is stronger than my love for jihad!' if you like john wayne, and i do, there is an auction here in hollywood that you should about. it features one of the most interesting pieces of memorabilia from his career. its not his six shooter, its not his cowboy hat, its not his leather chaps, i got those last year, its his wig! john waynes wig from the movie 'el dorado'! by the way, if you dont speak spanish, el dorado means 'the dorado'. anyway, i know what you are thinking 'wait a minute craig, john wayne wasnt bald! at least not upstairs...' not many people know this, john wayne actually wore wigs in all of his movies since 1948. i'm ok with that though, its not embarrassing to wear a wig for a job. at least thats what i tell myself when i'm out on the street hookin'. john wayne made up for any wig related weirdness with his walk. i cant do it, it just looks like i have a wedgie. anyway, if you are thinking about getting john waynes wig, let me make one thing clear: buying his wig will not make you tough like him. in fact, if you are buying wigs at all, you probably arent tough. john wayne was tough because his real name was marrion morrison, thats true. a boy will grow up tough if you name him something that questions his masculinity. like marrion, or a boy named sue, or lady gaga. thats right, theres meat under the dress too!'- dj qualls stops by to help with the tweets and emails

after realizing last week that there was a french talk show that has been stealing material from 'the late late show with craig ferguson', the host of that show steps out in front the the camera at the beginning of tonight's episode:
'bonjour!' welcomes the french talk show host arthur.
'hey, woah! what are you doing?' craig asks as he walks in.
'i'm doing the show' arthur answers,
'no, you are doing MY show! you are copying me!' craig fumes.
'ridiculous. bizarre' arthur responds.
'really? i put it to you arthur, if thats really your name. which its not, it jaque', craig announces.
'you are an idiot. it was not a copy, it was an homage. a tribute to your abilities' arthur says.
'what about when i saw you this morning walking my dog?' craig asks.
'also a tribute to your unique talents, and your dog really needs a bath'.
'what about last night when i caught you kissing my wife?'
'also a tribute to you. also, your wife needs a bath'.
'you are just copying everything i do!'
'no, you are just copying everything i say'
'oh no, not this old trick'
'oh no, not this old trick' arthur repeats.
'this is so juvenile, just repeating everything i say'
'no, it is you who is repeating everything i say, and its not easy with my english. and as you say, my show airs in france, 9 time zones ahead of los angeles. to repeat everything i say you must be some kind of psychic, possibly a witch, a kind of old gay harry potter' arthur implores.
'how dare you!'
'i propose that we burn you to get ride of you and your witchcraft' arthur states.
'you are good. you are very good...' craig admits.
'wee'
'this isnt over...' craig fumes as he walks off stage.

+ 'today i'm talking about wiki leaks', craig ferguson states, 'the leaked documents, most of it is just stuff sent between offices, just interoffice gossip. you know, the kind you email about coworkers. little jokes about your boss, little kitty cats hanging off branches, text photographs of you genitals. by the way, cbs cares, never send pictures of your genitals to your coworkers. send them to me! my email address is andyrooney@theinternet./google.cbs.com. you wait to see '60 minutes' on sunday! 'dont you hate it when you get unsolicited photographs of genitals? me neither!' anyway, now wiki leaks, theyve done good in the past, but i dont know if this latest release helps anyone. by the way, if you really want to keep something very secret, give it to the cbs publicity department. i'm not fucking kidding! they've got a wealth of information that no one will ever know about. this show, for example. or the humanitarian work of charlie sheen...'+ arthur, the french copycat, stops by to help craig with tweets and emails.

+ 'its a terrible day if you are in south korea', craig ferguson admits, 'did you hear about this? they were attacked by north korea, now the two nations are on the brink of a war. sounds like that pint sized madman, kim jung ill, is up to his old tricks! actually experts are saying that the person behind the attacks is not him, but his son. aw, kids grow up so fast! 'dad, i just want to borrow the army for a few hours!' anyways, never mind south korea and war, its a big night if you like dancing, or stars of course. the finalle was on tonight. congratulations, winner. now he or she goes off and... does whatever you do when you win. well, tomorrow they are on the view, thats what you do if you win dancing with the stars. you go on the view and barbara walters will go all old school and teach them the lindy hop or something. anyway, the three dancing with the stars finalists are bristol palin, jennifer grey, and a guy named kyle massey. no, i have no idea who he is either. they all defeated david hassellhoff and the mom from the brady bunch. beating hassellhoff isnt that difficult, you just distract him by throwing a burger on the floor. 'hey dave, whats that?' i dont want to get all preachy, but its a harsh indictment of our news media as we lurch towards possible nuclear war on the korean peninsula, that all anyone can talk about is dancing with the stars. me included! isnt it time journalists started asking the hard hitting questions like what does kim jung ill think about dancing with the stars?'- mark ruffalo he played the mouth organ with craig, and was actually really good!
french ferguson copycat
it recently came to craig ferguson's attention that there is a french talk show that has been stealing from his show. the french show, called 'ce soir avec arthur', and it is almost the exact same thing as craig's show, stealing his puppet bits and his sing-alongs and everything! they even stole his opening sequence! what did craig have to say about this? 'be honest, do i look french to you? i dont, right?' craig says, 'im on the tweety box every now and agan, and sometimes i go on twitter as well... so i was on the twitter and someone tweeted me on the twitter a clip of this show they saw in france. its a french talk show. i looked at it and im like 'huh?' they have a clip of the show and its a straight rip off of my show! what?!? and its better lit than this! i'm looking at it and thinking its a coincidence, surely. theres no way, he just happens to have the puppets as me and do kind of the same thing. let me just look a the title sequence of this show along with the title sequence of my show, so i did. they are almost a shot for shot remake! a couple things, one: great music, two: what the fuck is going on?!? listen, if you are going to steal from a show, at least steal from a good show like 'lost', or 'the wire'. dont steal from this show! thats like taking pants from a hobo! you cant steal from us, we dont have anything!'see it for yourself here.

+ 'everyone is very excited about the big movie opening today', craig ferguson shares, 'and when i say everyone is excited about it, i do mean everyone... well, i mean children and teenagers and creepy middle aged dudes, because harry potter and the deathly hollows opens this weekend! thats right, i'm going quiddich crazy! sure, russell crowe has a big movie opening up this weekend too, but does russell crowe have a big magic wand? its got to be dissappointing making a movie and then finding out your movie gets released the same day as harry potter. its like going to a strip club and then realizing you are sitting next to bill clinton. actually, the harry potter movies arent really for me. why? because i am an adult. if you are a grown man watching a movie for teenagers, i have one thing to say to you: shame on you, roman polanski! no, harry potter is awesome, its a global phenomenon. even osama bin laden likes harry potter. thats true, in the last tape he said 'death to all westerners, except perhaps for harry potter'. this harry potter movie is so good though, that they had to split the movie in two parts. part two doesnt come out until next june. now its obviously why they split the movie in two. the producers said, and i qoute, 'its to do justice to the words and ideas in the amazing story'. which is hollywood talk for 'we can make twice as much'.11-18-10
+ 'today is a very special day actually', craig ferguson shares, 'its the 35th annual great american smoke out today. if you are out there smoking, knock it off. 43 million american smoke. and they say today, cause this is the day you are meant to stop, the best way to quite is not to start. i hate it when they say stupid stuff like that. its not helpful, its easier to stop if you dont start, or look before you leep, or dont put your penis in the vacuum cleaner. yeah, now you tell me, its too late! if you had told me before i wouldnt have done it! it says on the box 'ball vacuum'! the demographic most likely to start smoking, this is true, is teenagers. now this is because teenagers love doing stupid stuff. this is true, we know that. who besides teenagers would fall in love with a sensitive vampire or a twinky werewolf. 'hes got feelings'- hes a vampire, you idiot! the reason teenagers start smoking is because they think its cool. its rebellious again. ive thought of a fool proof plan to get teens to stop smoking is to give cigarettes embarrassing names. not cool names like winston or salem or anything like that, they should give them names like 'camel toes', or 'bottom frolics'. just straight out call them penises! what teenager is going to go up to the counter and say 'give me a pack of penises'. no one is going to say that! no one is going to walk up to someone and say 'can i bum a penis?'. i worry that the banning of cigarettes is restoring some of the coolness of them. i dont think we should treat smokers like criminals, they should be treated like normal people, normal people with terrible breath and teeth the color of post-its!'+ access extratainment tonight with barny slash and john tesh. man, these things just keep getting weirder and weirder...

+ 'its a great day for our friends over in the uk', craig ferguson shares, 'cause everyone over there is talking about prince williams engagement, hes marrying his long time girlfriend kate middleton. the looks great, she's actually normal looking! according to british law, when she gets married, shes third in line to be queen. so, move over elton john. the royal family is elated, william reportedly sat down with prince charles and said 'dad, i've got great news!' 'what? grandma's dead?' poor prince charles, he's afraid he will never be king. he spends more time hugging the thrown than a bolemic supermodel. after he heard the news, prince charles pulled his son aside and said 'son, marriage is a lot of hard work. i know because someone once told me what hard work was, and it sounded a bit like marriage'. now, i make fun of prince charles, but thats not fair. he's done a decent job of raising those sons, william and harry, they both went into the military. harry risked his life in afganistan, william is a rescue helicopter pilot for the r.a.f. just last month he had his first rescue mission: he swooped down and saved someone from eating british food 'dont do it, blood pudding is actually made of blood!' 'what? i cant hear you over the helicopter!'. if your british, you might as well be excited about the royal wedding, cause you are paying for it... some british people think that your favorite royal says a lot about who you are. for instance, if your favorite royal is queen elizabeth you are distinguished and respectful, if your favorite royal is prince harry you are impish and irreverent. if your favorite royal is prince charles, then you are prince charles.'craig ferguson's doctor who intro
what a shame! craig ferguson and his crew had prepared an introduction for the dr. who themed episode, but found out after they had filmed it that they had not secured the rights to the dr. who theme music! 'so tonight because its a dr. who special, we had this idea to do with the dr. who theme music' craig shares, 'i had written some words over top of it, and we all did a dance number and we rehearsed it, the last two days we rehearsed it, rehearsed it like crazy! the puppets were in it, we were like 'ooh!' and there was a whole big thing, cause i know you enjoy the puppet intros, and i do to. and look, these guys dont dress like this all the time! so anyway, five minutes before we start tonight, i'm not kidding, five minutes, the producers, and i use that term loosely, they came to me and said 'craig, we havent got legal clearance to use the song. i said 'you fucking assholes! what the fuck?!?' but luckily i didnt let it get me angry or affect me in any way...'later in the show as he is talking to chris hardwicke, craig says 'it would be a shame if someone were to leak the intro online...' and wouldnt you know it, someone did! check out the hilarious intro with craig, his dancers, geoff, secretariat, and even with dr. who himself: matt smith! you can find it on chris' website here. check it out, its really funny!

+ 'it is a great day for us at this show, and a great day for me personally', craig ferguson shares, 'because matt smith is here, the star of the dr. who show. this show, dr. who, has been close to my heart since i was a young girl. now, if youve never seen the dr. who show, its on bbc america. i like bbc america, its not as good as cbs of course. now, for those of you who have never seen dr. who, first of all wha?!? secondly, its about a time lord, alien, a doctor if you will, that travels through time in a phone booth. an idea that was flat out stolen by bill and ted. excellent adventure, my ass! by the way, 'excellent adventure my ass' is the name of a movie i've had an idea to write. i'll try to get keanu reeves, but i dont think he will do it... anyway, matt smith plays the dr. now i like the dr., cause hes not like a regular superhero, hes like a different superhero. he doesnt fly, he doesnt have laser beam eyes, he doesnt have six pack abs, he has intellect. he has intellect, an attainable power for all. he achieves things with just his mind. and a phone booth that travels through time, and the power to regenerate his body from one form into another, and a magical screwdriver. but apart from that, hes just like us. now the doctor has been played by 11 different people, kind of like cher. technically cher is one person, but is made up from parts of 11 different people. thats why dr who has been on tv for so long, you see, cause when the main actor quits they replace him with another one and they say he regenerated. see? at least they explained it, when dick york turned into dick sargent on bewitched they didnt even bother to explain it! by the way, dick sargent was my rank in the west hollywood volunteer army... they didnt ask, and i didnt tell.'

+ 'theres a new movie out today that i'm very excited about', craig ferguson admits, 'its called 'unstoppable'. its about a train thats... unstoppable. cause when i first heard about a movie called unstoppable, i thought its about me with a bedazzler. you've got to think though, that a solution for a runaway train seems pretty simple. 'aw, the trains out of control!' well, we'll stay out off the tracks then. just stay off the tracks, lower the gates, then we will wait till the train runs out of gas. but that would be the end of the movie though, wouldnt it? its like that movie return of the king. 'the kings back. right.' you know in old movies they used to use a shot of a train going through a tunnel as code for sex. for a long time i thoughts thats how you made a baby. and thats the story of how my penis was run over by a train. anyway, the movie unstoppable stars denzel washington and chris pine. now, i like chris pine, he was captain kirk in the new star trek movie. he piloted the spaceship enterprise, and now he's driving the train in this movie. now obviously this guy is good at operating heavy machinery in a movie. and right now the producers of a movie called 'crazy fork lift' are going 'weve found our man!'.'+ billy gardell stops by to help out with the twitters and emails.

'you dont have to smoke em'. ive always wanted to be a captain on one of these cruises, id wear my little captains had and talk like a pirate 'its happy hour right now at the barrr'. the only downside of being the captain of a ship is that you are expected to go down with it if it sinks. unless your the captain of a gay cruise, then sinking isnt a requirement for going down...'11-10-10

'well, thats a big coke bottle there' 'yup' 'so, do you have a painting of a glass with some ice?'. you know, andy warhol painted soup cans that sold for millions. which i bet must piss of the guy who actually painted the cans!'

'barry threw up in the aquarium and the fish ate it!' 'well, thats barry!' 'thats barry' was filmed in front of a live studio audience... anyway, i read this today: when obama was living in indonisia he had a gay nanny. it what you call, i suppose, a ganny. this is true, the gay nanny joined a transvestite dance group. you cant make this up, its true! the gay nanny joined a transvestite dance group called 'the fantastic dolls'. i dont think they needed to be called 'fantastic', i think its implied! the fantastic dolls were just like the pussycat dolls only without the... well, nevermind what they were without. do you know that when the news came out that obama had a gay nanny that became a transvestite, glen beck stopped crying for a minute.'criag's assistant bridger

craig's monster mash
in celebration of halloween, craig ferguson organized and performed another one of his hilarious sing-alongs to open up the show! this time the song they performed was 'monster mash'. craig was dressed as an evil scientist ans the dancers and puppets played along. they even got geoff peterson in on the action- fitting considering he's a skeleton! it was very funny, as always.
