I wish I caught this show earlier

I pretty much only discovered it a few weeks ago, and am annoyed that the show with Ferguson will be ending soon. Even when I dont care for the guests Ive been tuning in simply for the entrainment value.

You can find a lot of episodes on youtube...look for his classics, especially.

I really like his sidekick Geoff, they have amazing chemistry together and great comedic timing. From what I have read, Geoff didnt come in until 2010, and even then it wasnt until 2011 that he was as good as he is now. So would it be fair to say that the show overall has peaked in the last 3 or 4 years?

Hahahaha No. IDK exactly when it peaked, but it went downhill at the end of '12. IMO, of course.

I think there have been several peaks and valleys. I'd agree with the downturn at the end of '12, but IMO, things improved substantially about a year ago.

[–] csjohnson33 10 years ago

That's true. But I never fully cane back after about January of last year. I've just caught random episodes since then.

Electric, I think that the show was chock full of things that were different and fun from day one. I've loved watching serrendipidus remarks evolve into major segments and catchphrases. Eg, to calm the censors after a night of over the top swearing, he ended the show with Syd the little white bunny from Northern England who, also, came from a long line of cursers. The bunny bleeped his way thru an apology for Craig's behavior. And thus Syd was born. Then there are the sketches, including Murder she wrote and Prince Charles. And every single lip sync with the puppets. The trip to France.

You've got a hard job ahead of you, but if you can go back way before Geoff, those years are really good too!

If anyone knows how to get a petition started asking cbs to release dvd collection of all the shows....I'd sign it!

Starwave-Craig read an email from someone who asked the same question about releasing some dvds of TLLS. Craig made a "like that's gonna happen" face.

They still haven't released anything from The Drew Carey show and that's so long ago, the Mr. Wick years, so I doubt if they'll ever release anything from TLLS. One of all the musical lip synchs would be great but it's not happening.

It won't happen, but I would pay A LOT of money for a complete dvd box set!

I only discovered this show about 12 months ago when it was finally shown here. In regards to YouTube and the like, can anyone recommend some classic episodes or segments to check out?

[–] toottoot 10 years ago

Most people, myself included, suggest the "Brittany Spears monologue" about his sobriety, and the one honoring his father

[–] redundantly-redundant 10 years ago

Thanks, they were great!

Watch the whole series of the Best of Craig Ferguson Laughing Videos, loads of his funny moments. Ive been watching for about two years, i saw an initial decline but the arival and increase in the use of the phone calls, gave it energy, so for me it peaked at the end.
