I got separated in 2013. Had a job I could stand. Had to move back with my parents for 6 months. I was in a bad place. This show was the one of the few things that kept me sane
As genius a comedian Craig is, Josh Thompson is equally a genius improv creator as well as being able to mechanically control Geoff/Sandra, switch voices, and come up with bits all at the same time.
He’s a miserable sob….it’s what helps make him amazing. Remember how Scorsese never needed that Oscar? JRT doesn’t need the milquetoast mainstream success. We all know he’s a force of nature.
@@parma-sean I don't think he was plugged and connected in the best networks. He's versatile like Rob Schneider. I'd like to see him in a Sandler comedy, or take over every role Awkwafina is given.
This must be one of the weirdest chapters in TV history. Josh did not become famous after this, Craig did not become a household name, and he was replaced by the most unlikeable and unfunny host of all time. Boggles the mind!
Because the powers of the time didn't like or expect that any of the talent involved made it and could smash it without even trying, on their own merit, rather than based on who they know or the pompous crap they pedal regarding eachother "in the know" . If they let these two through, they would have to start hiring based on talent? Can't have that can they? Then how would they shoehorn 💩 into the timeslots?
"I am exhausted. I've just had a Frisbee in the barn door..." 🤣 I really liked that one, but let's face it, these guys were a FANTASTIC duo. I hope JRT got paid what he was worth. That guy made like half of the entire show funny.
I only smiled for a long time, but when Secretariat compared his feet, I almost spit my coffee out... I love this show... and it's so wonderfully timeless... Grrreetanks frromm Gerrrmannyy
5:04 I can picture Josh standing offstage in his getup, bright red in the face and with the biggest mischievous grin on his face and staring at Craig during that whole scene. Lol
What started off as the anti-sidekick became the best sidekick in latenight history and that was in no small part because Josh Robert Thompson knew how to play with Craig in just the rightway. Thank you.
If RUclips keeps Craig on there permanently, a gut-laugh will never be far away. Craig and Geoff's spontaneous brand of humour has completely deconstructed EVERY 'late show' EVER. Unless someone comes along to top this act, Craig Ferguson will forever be the undisputed, unrivalled king of all 'late shows'.
@@mikewilliams8951 I've watched all the late shows and NONE of them have ever come close to Craig's style of madcap craziness and interviewing technique while deconstructing the late show format. He was a stand alone maverick in late shows and genuinely loved by many many people.
I miss this show sooooo much. Nothing but madcap lunatic chaos and barely a moment of it is wasted. They would work a general idea for what the wanted the show to be and then just riff and when you have such gifted comedians as Craig and Josh it is always hilarious. And I am still waiting for the spinoff from this show, GP and the Fergs. I will watch the crap outta that show!
Since covid hit, I have watched countless hours of this show, mostly in the GP era, and this was a lot of fresh, hilarious stuff I will watch many times over.
You can really tell how much celebrities really have fun on this show 😂 No theatrics or script or any expectations. Just having weird and random fun with the two weirdest people on Late Night ❤️
Geoff was the greatest co-host and the most hilarious individual to offset Craig Ferguson 's Comedy. As a team they were unstoppable and unbeatable as a comedy team on T.V. thanks so much Craig and Josh for the millions of laughs 😂😂😂❤you guys!! GaryBailey 🍀💚🐉🗾🇬🇧🇬🇸🇺🇲
@@CaptainAMAZINGGG He never did a ton in Britain, Confidence on Red Dwarf was his first credit I think then he did a few bit parts and ended up on the Drew Carry Show in the States, not sure if that one was as widely exported as stuff like Friends was. The Brits have their own talk shows so this was not exported either, clips maybe but I'm not surprised people are still just finding him now.
Craig Ferguson and Conan O'Brien are my two favorite late night talk show hosts. It didn't matter how bad my day was because late at night it got better.
Dear sir or madame ParmaSean, this is absolute *GOLD* I cannot express how grateful I am for this lovingly curated magnificently edited GP + Fergs compilation. I’ve seen everything Craig Ferguson, and I have to tell you I’ve never laughed nonstop quite as much as I just did. Craig & Josh R.T. are often the only real escape I get from this dumpster fire reality we have, & that’s fine as it’s the best escape anyone could ask for. They’re my fav humans truly. So, thank you X 100 for this gem!!!
@@parma-sean I couldn’t be more excited to hear that :) I watched TLL show for the entire duration on CBS yet I never thought to dvr it or archive it sadly (well not entire true I had a ton of vhs tapes from the early years of the show as it was the only simple option; and then came a basement flood) For years I’ve been dreaming of an entire commercial Box Set being released which would never happen (yes I even emailed CBS a few times, I’m that insane fan) or better digital but it’s pipe dreams. Too bad, it’s doable clearly...I’m thinking of Monty Python’s Flying Circus, which I’ve had for years, the entire BBC run, and extra material. Sorry for such a long comment yet again. Really appreciate your work!!
Agree and same here…it took a lot of work to get it all and create a flowing video. Well done. Now I have to find the others. PS..I had to stop halfway…to catch my breath and brain..
100% agree! I'm saying this to help, not criticize: Their is possessive, "their socks are dirty . " They're is a contraction of the words they, are: " They're washing their socks." Have a great day!
What I loved about Craig Ferguson was that his show was actually funny! I mean talk about begging for laughs the other so called late night shows were a regular snoozefest which I suppose was handy? But Craig's Show would see guests and the Audience regularly piss their pants laughing I mean seriously on American Television how often do you see an organic comedic moment that makes you piss your pants? Thanks Craig, Jeff and all the crew you guys were fucking awesome!
No doubt. I believe they were the zenith of late night talk show/comedy. It's 2024 now so about 10 years since they did their last show. I have yet to read a comment stating they might have competition from another outfit Life is a strange journey.
This was great, almost all of it I'd never seen before. CBS should've given Josh a million dollar contract. The way that Craig & Geoff could just wing it adlib was as good or better than The Whose Line Is It actors. Craig was 1000x better than that chubby brit that came in after Him.
Hey ParmaSean, you certainly have a lot of Craig Ferguson clips. I'm looking for one where he flexes his muscles and says "Somebody call a veterinarian, 'cause these pythons are sick!"
Oh man it's refreshing to see a compilation made fresh from unknown/less popular bits from this show. 10 minutes in and every single one so far aren't just stolen from well known sources (JayLenoFly). Bloody hate those types and there's a lot of em. You clearly are a fan of this show and have watched thousands of full episodes to have come up with these bits. It shows and I as a veteran hobo love it. You've got a subscriber wit ze bhell klicht. Von bhell för yawr phleashae ja. Balls unt assmode.
@@parma-sean If I recall one of the “band members” of Alfredo and the Shy Guys also had that voice 😂 Between Serge & the Queen of England I cannot keep it together. Love them all but I’d say that’s my top 2.
He’s an improvisational genius really. If I could hang out with anyone for just a day it would be JRT and Craig. That would be my greatest joy actually!
Thanks for making this amazing compilation! I’d forgotten that I’d done half of those bits! 💀💀💀 (source: I was Geoff Peterson)
Thank you for all the laughs. You still help me in my darkest moments. Thank you dude.
I got separated in 2013. Had a job I could stand. Had to move back with my parents for 6 months. I was in a bad place. This show was the one of the few things that kept me sane
You and craig need to come back for just one more run!
You're fantastic Josh. I always loved the show but you really took it to another level. Big fan.
You two were the best team on late night.
Josh is the greatest co-host. Made this great show, 100X funnier.
Geoff is the gift that keeps on giving 😂
As genius a comedian Craig is, Josh Thompson is equally a genius improv creator as well as being able to mechanically control Geoff/Sandra, switch voices, and come up with bits all at the same time.
The fact that Josh’s career did not skyrocket is a continuing mystery to me.
@@parma-sean 👍
He’s a miserable sob….it’s what helps make him amazing.

@@parma-seanVery talented, but always typecast as Geoff?
ABSOLUTELY! The same thing puzzles me too. Josh, You are the best side kick ever! Thanks for making me laugh so much I'd get cramps in my cheeks.
I miss this show so much. One of the best talk shows--totally turned the whole thing on its head to create perfection.
Geoff & Craig's chemistry were the highlights of this funny show.
Josh's Arnold Schwarzenegger and George Lucas impressions were actually pretty convincing. I'm surprised he didn't pull them out more often.
Geoff Peterson is the best and funniest co-host of any talkshow ever😂
GOLDEN!!!!!! Craig Ferguson was THE late night king. The final interview with Robin Williams was comedic magic!!!
This must be one of the weirdest chapters in TV history. Josh did not become famous after this, Craig did not become a household name, and he was replaced by the most unlikeable and unfunny host of all time. Boggles the mind!
Paul, you could not be more right !

You can ask him directly, he actually left a comment here 7 months ago :)
I only smiled for a long time, but when Secretariat compared his feet, I almost spit my coffee out... I love this show... and it's so wonderfully timeless... Grrreetanks frromm Gerrrmannyy
Craig & Geoff were absolutely the funniest thing EVER on TV . No one else even came close .
It is INSANE how under rated Craig (and Josh) are.. those two are comedic GENIUSES and absolutely HILARIOUS!
“ Yes I am here slowly peeling the Banna” 😂 that’s gold!
Turtle soup - they come with their bowl, just flip it over…. it’s their fault.
i nearly spat my tea on the keyboard:)))
god i miss these two
5:04 I can picture Josh standing offstage in his getup, bright red in the face and with the biggest mischievous grin on his face and staring at Craig during that whole scene. Lol
The pause between "we'd love to have you here..." and "...sexually" was so fucking funny
What started off as the anti-sidekick became the best sidekick in latenight history and that was in no small part because Josh Robert Thompson knew how to play with Craig in just the rightway. Thank you.
Wow!!! 2024, and just watched this brilliant compilation..... Not stopped laughing for nearly half an hour... 😂😂😂😂 GENIUS!
I appreciate it! Check out the whole series on my channel if interested and I'll have another one coming soon!
Holy hell this is by far the most hilarious 35 min I’ve ever experienced…absolutely freaking unbelievable work, Josh!
And you too, ParmaSean!
You shoulda seen it all happen live every night. I almost never missed an episode.
Saw Craig Live, and he worked with our home town hero Drew C
@@ventolen I can only imagine…I’m extremely envious.
This is how late night talk show used to be!
I miss so much their work together it's hilarious
So needed. The hilarity of Craig Ferguson. Love him, love the show.
Watching this just proves the old adage "you never know what you've got 'til it's gone".
Lol the horse feet size question had me rolling.
Our go to night show during deployments. We could not wait!!!! We would launch planes using Geoff quotes!

Why oh why did The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson ever leave the air. It is the funniest stuff on RUclips.
These guys would of made an amazing podcast together
I agree, George Lucas.
Seriously?
Is this George Lucas or is it Miriam??!🤬😉
25:37 This has to be one of, if not, the most random pantomime phone exchange ever!!😂😂
Loved this show. TV was diminished when Craig and Geoff (et.al) left the air.

I've been watching Craig Ferguson on RUclips for years and never seen the Ghost bit. That was hilarious!
THIS was textbook late night. Man I miss shows like this. Come back, Craig!!!
Im laughing so hard. Miss you Craig. And Geoff. And Serge 😅
This is really a top drawer collection of clips. Great job.
Sean, thanks for putting this together. This show was THE funniest on TV the entire time it was on. I so wish I could see Craig perform again.
Gawd! I miss this show. There will never be a better dynamic than Craig Ferguson and his gay robot skeleton sidekick Geoff Peterson!
Since covid hit, I have watched countless hours of this show, mostly in the GP era, and this was a lot of fresh, hilarious stuff I will watch many times over.
👌
I frequently watch this in my GP area as well.

Hey ParmaSean! This is exactly what I needed while working at a mundane desk job. Thanks for mining out the gems from Craig Ferguson.
So hilarious when secretariat compares front and back feet
Lol The fluff is garnish! It's the kitty Im after!
Another absolutely outstanding compilation! (I have just about EVERYTHING 'Craig & Josh', etc., downloaded!) Very well done!
Was there ever a show that celebrated the art of doing nothing as well as this? I think not. Genius.
Only Craig and Josh could have pulled it off; best late show by far, only a little too late.
Maybe Seinfeld?
Geoff was the greatest co-host and the most hilarious individual to offset Craig Ferguson 's Comedy. As a team they were unstoppable and unbeatable as a comedy team on T.V. thanks so much Craig and Josh for the millions of laughs 😂😂😂❤you guys!! GaryBailey 🍀💚🐉🗾🇬🇧🇬🇸🇺🇲
