Anyone see Craig Ferguson?
Tonight he gave a eulogy for his father who died this weekend, instead of his monologue.
It was really impressive - he was so real and sweet. Television rarely goes there and it can be stunning when it does.

I kind of think that Ferguson is something special on tv now - he even takes some good shots at Bush from time to time.

2. I really like him a lot, too. I love the way he delivers his monologue --
it is almost as if he is telling a story instead of just hammering us with jokes.

He is also very charismatic.

3. He's about the only late-night host I care to watch
Well, besides Letterman.

Ferguson is really catching on, I think. He is quite charismatic in that he seems like your quick-witted brother-in-law or somebody. He doesn't come off at all like a "star."

Wish he'd do something with his hair, though.

6. Letterman had a LOT to do with him getting that show
At fist i wasn't too sure about him, but I do like him now. I never watched that show he was on, so I had never seen him before.. I was hoping they would give the show to DL Hugley..

4. who was the guy he interviewed?
I only got to see a few minutes last night...and I did not recognize the guy but, they were talking about Craig's father and how denial can be a defense mechanism...

5. Drew Pinsky
the psychologist. Apparently they are friends and he wanted friends with him. Amy Yasbeck was the other guest. At the end of the show they had a group Wicked Tinkers (drums and bagpipe) play and Craig played the drums with them.
