- i made this video compilation with all my love. i really hope you like it since i took hours of dedication and also, i love Craig so much i just wanted to share that love with y'all
oh and btw, some of my comments in the edit are meant to appear that fast, it was intentional, just in case you noticed and wanted to say something about it haha it's just the edit style i chose :)
TBH Craig Ferguson was the best late night host for 9 years straight
Your comment deserves a golden mouth organ
Who beat him for the other year? He did 10.
@@bobmunro9104 actually....2005-2006, 2006-2007, 2007-2008, 2008-2009, 2009-2010, 2010-2011, 2011-2012, 2012-2013, 2013-2014. There are 9 years there
@@wanabiyu8380 He was on in 2014 as well. Great work on the compilation, by the way. The more Craig, the better.
Then he was the best late night host gay the next nine years, or so we think
He made it all fun. He knew the people at home and he talked to them like he was in the room with them.
that's why I made this video like having that idea in my head that he was talking to us and we were reacting to that ❤️
He’s my favorite late night host of all time for one simple reason: He never allowed himself to stop being an actual comedian. He refused to fully conform to the format that can suck out the creative juice that makes a comic funny and unique. He made the show entirely his own and that’s why its had such an enduring legacy. Conan is the only other one that comes close imo.
Absolutely peerless, a raw, honest, unpredictable, absurd and whimsical goofball. Never taking himself or most importantly the job too seriously.
Exactly.
It's honestly awesome seeing so many people still loving Craig and appreciating that this show was so much more than "just another late night show" to a lot of people ❤ I remember catching it one night when I was having trouble sleeping and it became a staple of my nightly routine until he left
He had an incredible fan base ❤️ and yes, he made so many people happy before sleep 🥺✨
Same. Then I got my sisters watching it.
Then our parents heard us cackling and came to investigate. Then over time it became a part of our nights.
This was how I sneakily got my bedtime pushed back. I feel like Craig would be proud.
The part about the 11 year old cracked me up because I watched the show starting when I was like 8 and by the time it was on my mom would be basically asleep and not paying attention and she'd just see a robot, some puppets and a horse and figured it was alright for me 😂
Lmaooo that's so great 😂
Person. Compared to the shit they showed on other programs, Fergeson was okay. Remember when Baldwin did his SNL boy scout routine...that was beyond inappropriate.
Now I gotta watch the clip about the penny in the well
Craig hugging the camera for that e-mail was honestly so heart warming. I love him.
A Craig ferguson compilation is just what the world needed! Thank you!
Thank you so much! I think it was time for it too :)
@@wanabiyu8380 It was. It really was time for one, ty 😢👍
the only thing wrong with it, it has an end. Funniest and most creative (with Conan but different way) in late night so far
@@lukaspfennig4076 Conan is good but when we put those two next to each other Conan will always hold Craig's...BALLS 😏
This show got so bonkers and I loved every minute of it!
Me too! Haha
This man brought tears to my eyes each and every night in the late 2000s .. still continues to make Me laugh to this day
I'm 19 yo and i can't say i saw him on the tv when it aired bc i didn't but it feels like it. I discovered his show las t year and since then I'm obsessed. I really think it was something else
@@wanabiyu8380 Craig and Conan are the best if you want to take your mind of everything and just laugh. Jon Stewart if you want the bs to be called out as he yells into the dark corrupt void that us our world.
The rest is highly partisan and not in the say Stewart was back in the day. To the point even a left leaning person like myself thinks it's a bit much nowadays.
Stick with Craig, Conan especially if they have Norm McDonald or Bill Burr on.
@@wanabiyu8380 he really made it work, with a small budget and a great style of humorous act
Craig and Letterman were always my favorites. But Craig was something else. When something horrible happened, he was always honest and showed his emotions. Late Night tv is missing that without him
Practically every talk show host would ask set up questions that the guests were aware of and get the chance to tell their story. Letterman, Leno and Conan all had to do this. But with Craig it just seems like a natural conversation where he would ask anything and the guests loved it
I remember when once one of the guests said that his show is fairly often referred to as "the fun one" in the show bisnes industry.
This is a fantastic clip full of some stuff I've completely forgotten about. It's crazy how long it's been since he's left us but you know, I love how much the fans keep it alive. Great work, do more!!
For sure, we need to remember the best late night show and host. And thank you!!
You make it sound like he died.
@@JC20XXThe show died or ended, however you want to say it. His show never did, of course. It's tough to say what I mean exactly but maybe you understand? 🤷♂️
Ohmygosh, I loved watching Craig so much. I'd forgotten how completely unhinged the show became now & then. Best theme song ever! What a lovely man, just plain honest and SUCH a goofball. I adore him. Part 2, yes please.
I love him and he's the best, I'm so glad this video remained you how great he was! And yes, already working on part 2!
What was great about him is he had no illusions about how unserious his job was and how unserious it was talking to celebrities. But the guy has a great mind for comedy and witty enough to improv with anyone; and as funny as we all know he is, he is the first to laugh at himself... because how can you not, even if you are Craig Ferguson.

I came late to the show...I worked early and slept early during the years this was on air...and I don' generally watch TV, much less talk shows, to begin with...but after discovering these clips...I realize I missed something glorious, something that was more than the usual. I liked Craig immediately, the way one old punk rock refugee and recovered individual knows another on sight. That restless curiosity and humor that adds up to what it takes to survive your mistakes and cherish a life that is sometimes confounding. Craig 'gets it'. What a heart. Very glad this material is still out here, waiting to be found.
Same here ❤️
Well said.
I’m from Springburn, where Craig spent a lot of his youth outside Glasgow. He is an absolute living legend and sense of pride for all of us Glaswegians. I’ve actually adopted some of his personality traits when going in for job interviews and such. Works like an absolute charm! Thanks for the compilation friend!
His personality is perfect to adopt for interviews and social events! Haha, and you're welcome!!
Ha, greetings from Possil. Yes, his famile mover to Cumbernauld when he was young
Serotonin levels restored.
Hahahah I'm so glad to read that
I formally and respectfully...... DEMAND A SECOND PART. (I love the little comments/annotation you make lmao)
(Just my opinion tho)
OMG THANKS hahaha this is the best compliment ever
+1 the annotations are perfection
No, but seriously, there needs to be more of this. I miss the Craigyferg!!
Me too, please 🎯
Actually the annotations are a needless irritation that undermines his comedy genius (imo). Just the clips would be great
10000x better than corden could have ever hoped to be as a host. And 1 million better a human being.
Facts
This is 2023, and Craig is still the absolute BEST!!
His laughter is so genuine and so contagious. This show helped get me through a very rough time. For an hour every weeknight, I could forget everything and laugh all the air out of my lungs. Bless this man!!
About every 6 months or so I go through a Ferguson binge, which is probably why this was Recommended to me, I daresay. This compilation is fresh, and you add to the humor. Do another one!
I'm so glad you discovered him! He's really the best, and thank you so much! I'm already working on part 2!
I miss Craig's LLS every day. I've watched late night shows ever since I was a kid, grew up with Letterman and Leno then Conan... but Craig was just on another level. He was a phenomenal improvisor and it was like magic how he could turn nothing into comedy gold, and he always knew when it was time to move on and try new characters or bits. He was always 100% genuine and that really shown through with his interactions with his guests, and I loved how he built up a roster of "regulars" that he got along with so well that the interviews just felt like old friends chatting it up. There are so many moments from that show that are indelibly etched into my brain. Late night is dying now because it's either become completely politicized (Colbert, Meyers), fake/hokey (Fallon), and/or plain unfunny (Kimmell... well, most all of them now). I understood Craig wanting to move on and do something else with the rest of his life, but we really need him back.
I absolutely agree with everything you said that were opinions. The current guys' jokes are just so depressingly unfunny that they almost make me cry and they're basically never funny. I think couple good examples of Craig's best regulars are Kristen Bell and Mila Kunis. There are many others of course and I remember when one guest once said his show is often referred to as "the fun one" and it's very easy to understand why that is so.
He's so different from others that I've never seen anything like it. He's clearly naturally and genuinely a very curious man and that's a big part of what makes it fun for his guests because he has different questions to start with and he listens and then reacts to the answers so most of the time he really needs only one question to open the conversation and after that he can just take it anywhere he wants and I would love it more than anything if I was the one he'd be talking to.
I actually got to see two shows being taped, it's just as much fun. And, Robin Wright hit me with a frisbee as she was throwing them at secretariat. XD
Craig is one of my heroes that I really wouldn't even be afraid to meet cause I just know he wouldn't let me down. He has a heart of gold.
Also, the fact that 75% of women in that poll would sleep with him proves that most women still have good taste. XD
I teared up listening to him sing the theme song. It was the perfect talk show. I miss it, but I just hope Craig is loving life with the projects he's got going on.
I hope that too Marcelo 🥺
And btw, hablas español? Porque yo también jaja
@@wanabiyu8380 claro. Es mi primer idioma. 😁
I can't get enough of Craig compilations.
I just found out about Craig a couple of weeks ago.and I fucking love his humor so much
He was different 😭❤️
better late than never! Enjoy!
I've been a fan for years! I discovered Craig one sleepless night back in 2007 and have arrived at work tired till he left TLLS in 2014. He was the reason I didn't date! Nobody did it better than Craig. Call me crazy. Am grateful for CZcams so I can watch full shows and clips from back in the day. Loved your compilation!
Ive been having a horrible day today and this is exactly what i needed thank you so much
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💕
Absolutely a part two!! I was only 45 seconds in and could tell how awesome this compilation was going to be and added it to my favorites. Every single clip was a total gem.
Omg that means so much to me, thank you! Haha
I have an everlasting crush on Craig! I hope that his life continues to be amazing and special.
You are not alone my friend haha and yes, i hope so too!
I luv 💓💓💓💓💓
Minus the everlasting crush.
But you know the best wishes part.
Definitely.
He was the best late-night host since Carson. None of the late-night hosts of the last few decades can even come close.
Absolutely agreed. I watched his show nearly every night and sacrificed sleeping for school. 😂😂😂 He’s the best.
I don't bother with any of the late night tv shows now. The hosts are all lame.
@@andrewfrancis4462 And they seem so political and even very one-sided partisan political which makes them even more lame. Why wouldn't you at least try to stay away from it as much as possible? 😮
This is awesome, I miss this show so much. Thank you!
Thank you! ✨ I also miss it a lot :'(
Never another like Craig.... Not berfore and not since. All hail, the nerd of late night King Craig!
💜😊💜😆💜😊💜
What a great compilation! I enjoyed your captions 😂😂
Such a great walk down memory lane! Thank you!
Thank you very much ❤️
Awesome compilation. Thank you!
You're welcome! ✨
Thank you for this!! I really needed this today! Craig could always make me laugh!
Thank you for this compilation; it's beautifully done and reminds everyone how brilliant he was as a talk show host - even if he said he didn't really want to be a talk show host at the end. He was a natural. He was like Letterman in that he took the form to different places and made his hour unlike anything else on latenight television.
And please consider this a "yes please!" for a Part Two!
Thank you so much!!! He was the best 😭❤️
Thank you thank you THANK YOU for this fergy is by far my favorite late show host of all time deserves more attention hes the best to ever do it
He's also my favorite so you're among friends haha. I also think he's so underrated yet the best. And you're welcome!! Glad you enjoyed it!
I wish that I could’ve watched this show live, it brings me so much joy. Who knew that a talking robot and not a real horse could mean so much to me.
Luv this!!! I watched Craig from the beginning!!. Telling my coworkers to watch and how insanely, incredibly funny he was.. its been almost 20 years since then. Unbelievable!!. I still crack up , OUT LOUD, when I watch these clips!. Thx for making these vids!! Yes, keep making more!!.
Great compilation, thanks! Best show ever!
Thank you! And yes, indeed
this video is very beautiful!!! thank you for making it!
Thank you for watching it! ✨
Keep them coming!
Thanks🥰
I never watched the show when it aired (I'm too young) and I already miss it.
Same here, I'm 20 now so i was even too young when he quit 😭
loved it! Thanks for this. would love to see a second one!
Thank you! I'm working on the second part already!
So glad I stumbeld onto this compilation. This show and Craig are a downright treasure trove of awesomeness.
Btw :- Waiting eagerly for part II. " Quickly "
this was the best compilation ive seen in a hot minute, thanks for making it!
Oh my god thank you so so much!
@@wanabiyu8380 No worries!
Nope
OP i love you. i randomly get these bouts of intense missing craig hours and this vid cured me
A thousands thanks for this video. You capured the spirit /humour of Craig , and that live rendition of the title track (in Paris, with 2 locally hired musicians ) just showcases the talent of Craig
Thank you so much, it means a lot 🥰❤️
I miss him being on tv at night so much!😭
This is a great compilation! Thank you!
Made my day - thx for that.
Thanks so much for this amazing video - Craig, Geoff and the rest made this the best late night show 😮 Please make some more
Thank you! More is coming soon!
i appreciate this video and yes! make another!!!!!!
Thank you! ❤️
LOVE craig, love this edit, you cooked my friend, absolute banger 🤧🤧
Tysm 🥰
A second in, and the video has made its point perfectly.
(How awesome to see new Craig content still being uploaded!)
Omg thank you so much! I was really hoping my love and admiration for Craig was seen in this video!
@@wanabiyu8380 It shows ❤️ Loved also the inclusion of the lovely live singing (The Paris episodes were some of peak Craig wholesomeness).
@@Jemppu OMG YES I LOVE THE WEEK IN PARIS EPISODES SO MUCH 🥺
He is so damn cute and seductive. I love that he looks like he's having so much fun. There is no phoniness about him. Geoff and Secretariat are great too. I wish they'd bring him back but sometimes you just can't capture the fun and spirit of the original. However, if anyone could, I'd say it's Craig.
My all time most favorite bestest late night talk show host ever. Ill miss your talk show forever Craig. A big YES on part 2.
Great vid! Hit me right in the feels
that was the intent! ❤️
Thank you for this...Craig is the best!
Yes he is! You're welcome!
Great compilation of the one of the greats of Late Night!
Thank you very much :))
Best completion video ever❤
Damned outstanding editing. Can’t wait to see what you post next!!!🤪
thank you so much!! ❤️
Please make a part 2! I recently went back on a craigyferg binge and loved your edits/comments!
Thank you! I was planning to make a part 2 a long time ago but I totally forgot about it lol I'm sorry but I'm still gonna try to do it :))
A masterful super cut!!
Thank you very much! ❤️
PART 2 PART 2 WE LOVE YOU CRAIG
Keep them comming!
I'll do!🥰
God i miss him!! i would watch him when i was 14 and saw his final show as it aired when i was 19. I still love him to this day! But man, on friday nights when i was in high school and didn't have school the next day, those were the best nights! Miss those days
ysyes! a part2 pls that was great thanks!
Thanks to you! Already working on it!
Been watching him since last year and after seeing this beautiful compilation, I think I'm in love with this man now. 😳
Listen, i started watching him also last year. Been in love since. He's just so funny and smart, that's makes him so attractive 😭 and I'm 20 lol
Are we all three the same person? I was twenty last year and also in love with craig ferguson during that time 😭
This is absolutely amazing 🥺❤️
omg i appreciate this so much ❤️
I'm not going to question how CZcams thought I needed this, but I most definitely did. ❤ If you do end up making another one, I will humbly plead that you include the "I'll Stop the World and Melt With You" cold open with the Mythbusters.
I'm so glad ❤️ and yes! Sure! I'll include it! I'm working on it rn :)
Excited for the new show that he is making! Hoping to see it soon!
Me too!
What new show?
@@yafetkibrom8110 it's called channel surf, we don't know much about it yet but so far we know it's a syndicated show and it'll premier this fall. They were looking for a network to air it in the USA but it seems like it'll be recorded in the UK. Source, Craig's twitter haha
@@wanabiyu8380 I wish we could do something to make sure it happens. I need more Craig Ferguson in my life
@@yafetkibrom8110 same here!
It was AWESOME!!!!
Hahaha thank you sm
Amazing and yes please for part 2
Tysm, I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
This just opened old wounds 😑 I miss him a lot. ♥️
🥺 i miss him too ❤️
Craig Ferguson was the unparalleled legend of late-night television. In other talk shows, it often felt like the host was the only one laughing, with the audience either silent or supplemented by a laugh track. But with Craig, genuine laughter filled the studio, resonating with everyone present. His charisma and wit created an atmosphere where everyone, not just the host, was genuinely entertained. He is dearly missed.
As far as I'm concerned, this is the best show in the history of television.
for the love of god, you must make a best of geoff peterson compilation
(but really thank you for putting this together and sharing. such an amazing show, man, and compilation)
I was thinking about that, and thank you so much🙏🏻
No salsa, but if you do have salsa: spicy
One of the best running gags of the show
Great memories. Thanks
Loved this video! Craig was awsome, don't ya miss his show...not PC, extremely funny. These days this would be canceled, I miss Craig Ferguson! Our world has changed, and not in a good way
Love the clips and editing, great job. Now, back to Binj watching more Craig Ferguson videos 😊💓🤭👍
I miss this show so much. One of my favorite things he did, even though he didn't do it often, was when he pulled out a wooden puppet of Drew Carey and made it dance.
Btw you did a great job with this video. Well done 👍
You can't do enough of him!
True
Part two please. Nice to see the other bits rather than just the interviews.
Yes! Thank you, that's one of the reasons i wanted to do it, bc i noticed most of the people on CZcams know him just bc of the interviews but he was so funny during his monologues and the tweets and emails bit!
Whoever you are take a hug friend. Awesome work for us cheesy monkyies.
hahahah i got the hug! Thank you! ✨
Man, that was freakin Awesome !!!😂😂😂😂😂
Can't get enough.
I know every single one of these moments, yet I will never get tired of watching them...
Same. This is my own video and I've seen it like 4 times already since i posted it 💀
I am counting down the days waiting for his return this fall. The world needs his humor!
Yeah, i would love to see a part 2
Yes we want part 2, duuuuh
Yes please!
SO miss Craig!!
Yes, part 2 please. 19 mins isn't enough to capture everything we love about Craig Ferguson.
That's true, but i hope you liked this one!
Great work.
Thank you🙏🏻
Yes part 2. Craig is glorious
Yes he is, thank you, i will!
