but still true, after three years

I love Craig Ferguson. Seems like a very good man.

The Colorado thing was terrible. Dude opened fire on a large number of people in an enclosed theater, suffocated them with tear gas, and killed as many as he could. That is very terrible thing.

I wish we could actually discuss the issues, instead of instantly condemning them. The immediate reaction by any media representative is "I can't understand why this happened". I don't feel like you can say that while living in a country that continues multiple wars on many innocents around it, or lets extremely, albeit nonviolent, dangerous criminals walk off scot-free with half the countries money, or has nearly-daily events like this occur in the same week.

It's just stupid to think people have no reason to go insane while living here. It's wrong to take out that insanity on innocent people, but you can't say you don't understand why it exists while wearing your horse-blinders during so many other atrocities.

Try it now. I replaced my embed with yours.

I also removed the blocked tag -- add it back if still blocked?

And thanks.

Actually, there was plenty of silliness, as it was recorded the night before.
He starts with audience interaction and a monologue. Both those were cut, especially since the monologue was about Batman.
There were plenty of jokes and pre-tragedy innocent fun.

What was the whole episode like? I assume no jokes and stuff. I remember 9/11 was like that. I think some hosts were crying too.



Ah, interesting and thanks.

Thanks sweetie.

It wasn't a great day for America, was it?

You should try saying that in front of a man with really big muscles.

Me too. I can't stand the fakiness and the obvious contrivance.

His shows aren't always good, and he interrupts too much in his interviews, but the shows are always alive in a way that is unique to an overly controlled medium.

I always liked Craig Ferguson he's the only late night comedian I'll watch anymore.

I've seen him somewhere before. Craig Ferguson maybe? Or perhaps it was a top comic competition? Anyway, he made an impression and makes me laugh too =o)

Yeah, Craig Ferguson is on at the same time as Fallon.

Being a CraigyFerg fan, I was disappointed that Obama didn't go on his show. Then I realized -- he probably doesn't want to reach the stoner audience. Stoners and women of a certain age who are already voting for him.

Trying to reach the young voters there eh Mr. Obama? Working hard I see.

Never heard of this guy. How did I miss him?

My guess is that you weren't paying attention in class!
