Been alive long enough to remember 40 years of late night. Besides Johnny Carson on a good night, Craig is BY FAR the funniest late night host throughout the years.
You can’t really compare the two though. Johnny was a polished host who liked to have every moment scripted and planned. Craig loves to wing it, (or at least he has the appearance of doing so). They are both great in their own way.
@@Kev_Shmev if you averaged the length and volume of laughs divided by total words spoken the funniest person in the history of late night was Tommy Newsome. Johnny: "Where's Doc?" Tommy: "He's in Florida, he's going to TAMPA with his wife."
Except for the exceptional Craig this compilation also shines a little light on the brilliance of the invisible actor improvising all of the Geoff feedback to Craigs utterly random and unpredictable outbursts of sheer funny. They do so really great together!
JLF, if Ferguson ever notices a huge surge in renewed popularity, he has YOU to thank for it!! Once again my brother, you have surpassed your usual amazing compilations and delivered, in my opinion, one of the top 5 funniest compilations of anything I have ever seen. Your efforts are NEVER wasted when assembling these, and thank you for doing so!! *CHEERS*
Yeah, I never knew about Craig Ferguson before this channel, and I must say he is easily my favorite person on live television 🤣🤣 thank you very much Jayleno Fly
@@TheJayLenoFly i concur, idk how i discovered craig and this channel but it was many moons ago. i feel like i remember u saying something about discontinuing it and was sad but am glad now that some of the videos are back up. i feel like a lot of ppl got to know him through this channel
I tried backing up all your work JLF and I didn't even get a quarter of the way in before the gargantuan task before me was revealed and the true scope of your effort was visible to me. I honestly don't think many of us can grasp, truly, the sweat and tears you've put into this channel. It is absolutely absurd, almost dreamlike, that this channel even exists. Bless you. We love you. Thank you.
It's pretty easy to find a tool to download playlists from RUclips. It's about a hundred gigabyte...just takes an hour or so depending on your internet speed.
I can say with certainty that CF is by far the funniest human being I have EVER watched and I miss him terribly. Thank you CF for leaving us with some of the best comedic performances of all time. Thanks for being you!!!🙃
I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina and discovered this guy, this team and this show by pure luck on this ocean of videos. I just wonna say thank you. He was and still is a helpfull meducine during bad times or when I just desire for some laughs. Btw, unscripted parts of show and conversation between Craig and Geoff are priceless comedic history.
I always loved it when he went on a rant. LOL Thanks Jay Leno Fly. Those were great. I wish Craig Ferguson would come back. There is no such thing as funny Late Night shows on anymore. I quit watching all of them and just come here to catch up on real comedy. =D
Pure unadulterated comedy. I remember hearing about the late late show but never really put much thought into it because all the late shows are dull and boring. After I discovered this, I feel so ashamed that I didn’t put much thought into it plus it’s all over now. Thank you so much Jayleno Fly for doing all of this, your work is not in vain. I do wish Mr. Ferguson will come back or do something as incredible as this again
Oh man..so nice to unwind with Craig's rants... You know why they are outstanding? Cause they have the same effect, even on the 12th time..or maybe 15. Doesn't matter. Perpetual smile and the occasional chuckle is good for the soul. "What gives you the right!!? Who gives you the power?" Awesome.
@@Devin-O Like what? Where is he? I would watch Craig interviewing random civilians, or just ranting about various subjects. Or talking to Josh Robert Thompson.
I wonder of we could have a compilation of him, when he was emotional, like when his father, and mother died, when he talked about his past alcoholic history, etc.
I couldn't watch that. The opening where he was talking about his mother was so hard to watch. He could barely hold himself together. At the end of the monologue he just stares into space realizing his parents are gone. It was heartbreaking.
I love the rant he had on the internet douche 😂 spontaneous comedy really is the recipe why his show is so funny and different. I don't think any of the late night show hosts right now has the balls to do their show unrehearsed like good ol' Craigyferg. Truly a legend.
JayLenoFly, it's so nice to have you back. And this may very well be my favorite of all your CraigyFerg videos. The man's a genius, and you never let us forget that. Thank you.
Nick Zec well said. Craig perfected his craft with no writers to do his jokes, it all came from his natural ability to entertain people and improvise comedic timing that makes you being tricked at first and then he brings in the funniest punchline that you never saw it coming. A real golden comedian
Dagelijkse Dosis Internet You Toosie Froosie kids! When I was young and got bored in class we didn’t have a fancy whassacomminago smartphone to entertain us... we doodled, shot spitballs and passed notes around like good students!
Amazing ! you could do a compilation with guests praising Craig or the show ?... I've never seen so many guests do this like they do at the show love from Brazil
Yeah, there it is‼️I was searching for This girlwiththedragontattoo‼️‼️Probably the funniest(still wanna know what’s he really said, someone out there knows)‼️
@@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812 When Josh first started voicing Geoffrey Peterson live, the voice was very similar to George Takei, though not an impression. Gradually the voice became Josh. Craig did the pre-recorded voice, at the beginning, but that was a disaster. Larry King did a guest spot as the robot voice in 2011. Larry was amusingly clueless. Some other celebs did guest spots when Josh was away: Alfred Molina, Dominic Monaghan, Thomas Lennon, Larry King, Louie Anderson, Lauren Graham, Paula Poundstone, Angela Kinsey, Jason Schwartzman, and Shadoe Stevens (who also did the opening of the show).
@@seamac206 I think he did for a while but it ran longer than he expected. Word was he was gonna walk halfway through his run but he decided to stay on as long as Letterman was on before him. But I think he liked it in the long run; if you watch his demeanor during the monologue of his last episide he seemed genuinely choked up and emotional.
Kinda hard to tell if Craig meant his rants seriusly sometimes and just took the turn to comedy so it could be part of the show. I'm honestly not sure if he was genuinely mad sometimes or if he was acting. With 99.9% of people, I am absolutely sure what they're up to. Damn this guy is good!
I thought my notifications were messing with me when it said you posted a new video. I enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for all the work you put into them and thank you for posting this.
You guys, nothing is worse than putting effort (small or big) into something and not have it be appreciated, you guys having the notifications on makes sure that never happens to me. I appreciate you!
Yeha, yeah, blame the pot. Poor pot! Come here, I'll treat you better, I'll never blame my stupidity on you, that way no one can make me stop. (that makes sense, right??) Yeah, yeah it does.
I agree partly. Craig Ferguson had the greatest late night talk show of his time. Hands down. To have Geoff as a sidekick is just brilliant. But, not all late shows since have tanked. Most have though.
I know this will never happen but Craig should come back. Craig would come up in the same conversation of Johnny Carson and him as being the best of talk show host.
That was creepy. The moment Geoff spoke on 4:22, my Windows decided to play the notification sound. Making it seem like my Windows was censoring Geoff.
It still amazes me that there was that much censorship on a show that aired starting at 12:30AM. How uptight is the FCC? Are people going to complain that their young kid heard these words on here? The kids probably hear/say worse at school and they also should not be watching these shows. Especially having to show a picture of a small bird before he can say tit and then while showing an eagle the word tit is bleeped out.
I work like 10 hours a day a monitor, and hit the gym for like 2 hours. Thanks for uploading because i enjoy this shit cause it's hilarious !! I love Craig and Geoff !! Great job Jayleno 👍
This is amazing! I've been just following you and watching all your videos and super stoked that your subscribers keep climbing this is wicked! Please keeping putting them videos out. I love you! and I love Craig, god dammit!
Great stuff! Read both of his books and he’s so good! Miss the late show and since he gave it so many years ago, I’ve never tuned in because other hosts don’t come close. I respect Letterman of course but have watched Carson, Leno etc… not funny and original like Craig and Geoff!! Thanks for these memories on RUclips. Priceless!! 😂
can you make a playlist of good funny monologues? maybe you can make a poll or a form where people can vote for which monologues to include in the list when they come across one they think is really good. thanks for the amazing channel!
I REALLY would like an entire episode from all the uncensored cuss words , because we all know how GENIUS he is, i bet his cuss words are creative AF XD
This is even funnier after reading his book and seeing he got notes about, "stop yelling at them"
There's a book⁉️😂🤯😁
The producers gave the worst advice.

"one must always remain charming". When im feeling a bit down i always come back to this video just brilliant.
sometimes i feel like craig's entire late night tv career was just to troll the entire concept of late night tv
That's been his whole schtick...in his own words "to decompose the late night television idea".
The gay robot skeleton was obviously a dig at the useless sidekick hosts (ie: Ed McMahon and other stiffs like him).
It was his intention from the very start.

We should do some kind of a kickstarter campaign to get Craig back on a brand new show. Give me your blessing JLF!
It was never about the money he wanted to move onto his personal projects.
I doubt he'll ever come back mostly because of the twitter woke hate mob
@@Devin-O Like what? Where is he? I would watch Craig interviewing random civilians, or just ranting about various subjects. Or talking to Josh Robert Thompson.
once you retired its hard to go back coz you will realise other interesting things to do..

What is it that Miracle Max said.... "Why don't you just give me a paper cut and pour some lemon juice into it????!!!"
A compilation of Craig screaming “Shut up” or of Geoff saying “What the hell man!” Would be sublime
Really...you think that would be sublime?

No one rants as properly as a Scotsman can
RIP Geoff’s father...Grant Imahara
I didn’t know Grant made Geoff
He was my favorite late night show host and probably always will be 🤘🤘
I miss Craig. I doubt anyone will ever be able to match his charm for this kind of show.
Maybe it's the accent 😂

Thank you so much. I was having an "ay carumba" day and this made it much better.
"Oo la la!"
As Craig would no doubt say "I'm glad you take pleasure in my *wassacominago* misery!"

Still come back to binge all of these videos of yours. Great content in 2021 👍
As funny as Craig is, let’s reserve a little praise for the very talented Josh Robert Thompson aka Geoffrey Peterson, the Gay Robot.
I wish that George Takei would have done the voice of Geoff just once.
@@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812 When Josh first started voicing Geoffrey Peterson live, the voice was very similar to George Takei, though not an impression. Gradually the voice became Josh.

Cordon will never be a Craig
E Bergenberg I never felt like Craig liked hosting the show
They are both great just COMPLETELY different characters

Cordon is trying to copy Graham Norton's show essentially with all the guests on together. I'm shocked he still has a show
Cordon is too busy bashing people and doing segments that go nowhere
Kinda hard to tell if Craig meant his rants seriusly sometimes and just took the turn to comedy so it could be part of the show. I'm honestly not sure if he was genuinely mad sometimes or if he was acting.

Amazing how smart this Gentleman is and never finished high school? Thanks for posting!
He was educated by life...
Valedictorian of the school of hard knocks
I agree, his vocabulary is brilliant.
I haven't laughed that much in a while....I love this guy
