That other late night talk show host

I really enjoy watching Craig Ferguson.

It’s kind of sad that Comcast Cable has the following blurb when you hit “info” while watching the Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson:

The Scottish actor who played the boss on ‘The Drew Carey Show’ steps into late night.

I genuine laugh out loud when watching his show – it reminds me of the Letterman shows of many years ago – Ferguson deserves a better descriptive blurb than that.

Earlier today, I had a good conversation with a friend in England. You would not believe how cool Jay thought that was… “Wow, you know someone in England? How about Egypt, do you know someone in Egypt? [no] India? [yes] Really, I can’t believe you were on the phone with England today.” When I mentioned that my friend has a five-year-old son that Jay might be able to talk to one day, I thought he’d faint.

Among the things Elton (my friend) and I talked about were TV shows that get you hooked and then disappear: The Nine was one I mentioned and there was another whose name I could not recall… it was Traveler. Traveler was a show that they knew they were going to cancel, and in the final episode they got to an ending point… and then they gave you 3 extra minutes that blew it wide open again… WHY?  We’ll never know.

I’m actually more tired than I thought, so I’ll write more tomorrow. G’nite all.
