Jeff was the very first comedian I ever saw live, probably 20 years ago. I've seen probably close to a hundred comedy shows, several hundred comedians including Jeff a couple more times, and Jeff is probably still the most down to earth, funniest, cleanest comedian I've ever seen.
I could see it. I love standup myself and know the material of over a hundred comedians. Jeff's act is so polished, and he actually writes solid material. He's not underrated, but people don't mention him enough in "top comedian lists"
Craig is such a fantastic foil to other comedians and even those who do not think they are funny Craig will draw it out. He has matched up with some of the strongest wits.
I don't know why---something on another network during the same time-slot, probably---I wasn't a regular watcher, which I heartily regret. Seeing top-notch comedians on his show is amazing, so I'm really glad RUclipsrs have posted so much of his stuff. I bought the "Blue Collar Comedy Tour" boxed set, a couple of years ago because like Carson, Leno, Letterman, and Craig, their comedy is timeless; I laugh just as hard every time I watch 'em.
OMG, I tried to learn to play golf since my husband enjoyed the game, but I spent too many years playing softball, and I literally got about 4 good shots on a 9 hole course. One day we played at a course we hadn't played before, and he'd hit a ball into the rough, and when we got to it, there was a tree about 5' in front of his ball. He was trying to line up where he could hit it and get it anywhere near the green without hitting any of the trees. When he took the shot, I was standing a couple feet away from him and when he hit that ball, it hit that tree dead center, came straight back and landed a couple feet farther away from the tree. I was rolling on the ground laughing to the point I was crying. In a joking way, he just looked at me and told me to shut up. It just made me laugh more. Another time, we were playing with his brother who was so much fun to be around before he met his wife, but on the 8th hole, he had the first tee shot and it sliced over a hill so he took off walking to find his ball. I hit next and at least mine stayed on the fairway, even if it only went 100 feet. My husband got his ball teed up, he'd taken a couple of practice swings, then got to where he was going to hit, and his ball went straight for where his brother was still walking and nailed him right in the ass. Once again I was on the ground laughing. My brother-in-law wasn't laughing and my husband was just pissed that he sliced as badly as his brother. We spent an hour in the club house drinking beer afterwards, and we were laughing about it then, and then went back to my in-laws and told everyone there what had happened and I lost it again. That was the most fun I ever had playing golf. We came up with a rule that if it took me more than 10 strokes to get the ball in the cup, we stopped counting at 10. I was horrible.
Some not well known facts. I worked at the kwik-pick in Hapeville, Ga. The only grocery store in town. Hapeville is where Jeff is from. Jeff went to Hapeville High School. He was a couple years older than me so I never got to meet him. Hapeville is also the home to the original Chick-fil-a. That is where we hung out on Friday and Saturday nights. Actually it was called the Dwarf House. They had a small door at the front of the restaurant that the children could come through.
It's funny that when Jeff talked about golf he said only about 2% of players are any good. My college golf coach told us once that we were better than 98% of the golfers in the world. I never thought it was true but I guess if Jeff Foxworthy says so, why not.
It's true, I've always said the secret to golf is everyone sucks. New golfers get so self-conscious on public courses, but you're on a public course, lots of triple digit scorecards out there.
OMG i just snorted my beer...my Scottish Grampa came over to the USA on a big ship and Gramma said “He never, ever got in a boat again and we lived near the Ozarks, it was just wrong.” Nope, he was smart and I was right there with him. It only needs to sink once😳. Thank you again for the great memories!! KNEW there was a reason I adore you! CRAZY SCOT LOVE!❤️
"I just put a bunch of religious pamphlets on the seat." LOL. I actually used to do something similar when I rode Greyhound buses across the country. I'd sit there with my Bible out reading. Either the seat was left empty, or I had some great conversations for my 8 hour bus ride.
Jeff is a stud! He's not a natural. Being in front of people visibly scares him. He doesn't know if he can connect with a Scott, or if he's sophisticated enough to even be on a show like this. But he throws himself out there, fights through the challenge and it comes out gold! What an inspiration.
Jeff Foxworthy is one of the nicest guys around. When he performing, he's performing. He's a comic, on stage, at work. When he sits for an interview on or off-camera, he's the same guy.
@Kim Smith well, first…he is white, right? Honestly, one of the funniest, nicest, humble gentlemen around. And he does it all without being off color. He actually has a full vocabulary, rather than just one or two grunts and a foul mouth.
Agreed, Claiming Light. Those of us below the Mason-Dixon line followed him because everything resonated. Now, I know the punchlines to all the old stuff. It may be funny to those hearing it for the first time, but its also disappointing to realize how many times the older fans have heard him say it.
I've been a staunch Letterman fan and have not paid any attention to Craig Ferguson at all. But watching these old clips, especially the ones with Robin Williams and Billy Connolly, made me wish I paid more attention. The man is an awesome conversationalist compared to Jay and David. Heck! Even the sucky new ones.
Yes, the jayleno fly has done us an awesome service. I was a huge Craig Ferguson fan but I haven't seen half of these clips. I watched Johnny Carson and I put Craig Ferguson right up there with Johnny Carson. And I don't put anyone else in their league.
LOL! I worked at the barbecue stand across from the wild west shootout. Loved to go to Six Flags but hated working there. As a side note, I wonder if ANYONE remembers Buford the Buzzard.
Liked watching Jeff deal with the realization of Craig's preferences about halfway through the 2nd visit - LOL...did quite well, but you can follow the thought train
@@teapartyforthedead7032 LOL! Yeah, I figured. I don't really know Craig all that well, but he does have a vibe don't you think? Either way, I don't think Foxworthy was was too sure ...
Sorry Jeff but the Kayaking Olympics was held on the Ocoee River in western Tenn. Deliverance was filmed on the Chattooga River and Tallulah River and Gorge. The Chattooga River is the state line for Ga. and South Carolina. I Canoed on the Chattooga, Ocoee and Nantahala Rivers (N.C.) back in my twenties and before the Olympics. Damn, now I want to go again but my body says NO.
I used to live near the Nantahala. During the summer, we would grab some boiled peanuts and go watch the kayakers go over the falls and turn upside down in the water. Sheer panic for some trying to right themselves, others handled it like a pro. Talk about old-time entertainment. 😉 Good ol' days.
Definitely better than those Jimmys. Kimmel won't let a guest finish a sentence, and Fallon does that "six year old brat with the irritating giggles" bit. Ferguson could handle any situation without making it a "look at me" moment, and was always great with even the most difficult (or boring) guest. It figures they wouldn't keep him, he was too good for the moronic audiences out there today.
Well, there is a recipe for performing an abortion in the bible, But what if I told you that the Bible not only condones abortion, it gives a recipe for how to perform one? Would you be surprised? Well, some of you wouldn’t. I’m sure you’re aware of the story from Numbers 5. For those who aren’t, here’s verses 19 through 22:

I absolutely LOVED Craig Ferguson’s show. I miss him so much.
I miss Craig so much. I stayed up late every night just to watch him. With Craig and Jay Leno gone, I don't watch any of the current ones on now.
At 61 years old,, clackers were great in the 1970s!! So many things we did so many things, AND SURVIVED!??!
Two peas in a pod those two lol.
Jeff's laugh is priceless
Great guest, I 'm amazed I survived my childhood in the 70's as well, some close calls.
I liked such comedy when I was in my 18-34s. I still like such comedy as I'm nearing my 54.
OMG I needed this badly. Just to sit and cry from laughter. This Pandemic is kicking my ass. I love Craig and Jeff together! 🇨🇦❤️
Yeah, it hasn't been the best year and a half... I hope things get better for you soon.
@@BrianC1664 thanx very much.
I saw a Frenchman in bicycle shorts once and I've never been the same since.
Hahahaha! Epic!
😂
This guy is missed in late night tv
love those callbacks to the 'good ole days' being a kid in the 70s myself as well..
Craig is so much funnier and Better than any late night so-called comedian we have on TV now !!!!! I miss Craig's show so much.
I couldn’t agree more
Absolutely!!!
Joint 1st place with Graham Norton.
Geez…I had never watched Craig’s show. I wished I had now. He is funny.
This was amazing. Thank you for the collection.
These two get along like old friends. Really easy to watch. Super down to earth atmosphere when they're together. Awesome!
How did Jeff not laugh at "You must have the thighs of a ninja!"? 🤣

Jeff Foxworthy!!... Getting to say.....GENTLEMAN...START YOUR ENGINES AT TALLADEGA....AMAZING! On a few bucket lists!!!
This is why I loved The Late Late Show whith Craig Ferguson, real conversations, real people, real entertainment
Much like Letterman, Larry King, Tom Snyder and Merv Griffin was.
Craig is such a fantastic foil to other comedians and even those who do not think they are funny Craig will draw it out. He has matched up with some of the strongest wits.
@@theartistbonez1930 But it’s clear he finds Jeff Bill Larry and Ron funny as they are!!

He's definitely a legend down here. And a great guy.
These guys great with each other. Miss this show so much.
Late night shows are never funny to me...so much forced laughter...but this is HILARIOUS!!!!
Thighs of a ninja what a classic line
so relaxed Craigs guests, Love this. I miss you you haggis eating scot

5:05 I almost peed myself when i heard this for the first time...
Craig just loses it hahaha he's totally imaging the french in their bicycle pants...
i cried, it's a killer line
Jeff comes out casual but he has not one wrinkle on his clothes. Finely pressed clothing... he's my hero.
that's what it takes to be your hero?
I think its nice to see a guy who can take care. But then I always like a southern gentlemen who can laugh and be funny.
@@DavidMatine í_y
He is hilarious!
This guy's awesome!!!
EVERYONE! Turn on the "CC" closed captions while watching this & see how it translates! It's REALLY Funny. Nascars - translates as "knife scars".
"I just put a bunch of religious pamphlets on the seat." LOL. I actually used to do something similar when I rode Greyhound buses across the country. I'd sit there with my Bible out reading. Either the seat was left empty, or I had some great conversations for my 8 hour bus ride.

Damn! Craig censored his bush hog joke cause Jeff is super clean. I wonder what it was. I bet it was the name he used to dance under.
They are surprisingly good together. Side note, Jeff is like Thomas Lennon without the short shorts.
Great segment!!

As nice as any racist you'll ever meet.
@Kim Smith some people equate the Southern accent with racism. You know the same people who preach no one should stereotype.
@Kim Smith well, first…he is white, right?

This is the only late night show that I miss and watched because all the others suck
Exactly
I never know quite what to think of Foxworthy. His material can be really good, but he never retires ANY of it.
As long as it makes people laugh why should he retire any. It never gets old.
Agreed, Claiming Light. Those of us below the Mason-Dixon line followed him because everything resonated. Now, I know the punchlines to all the old stuff.

Visualizing a Frenchman in bicycle pants on the river; now that’s a site.
If Ned Beatty can't make it down this river, how is a Fenchman in bicycle pants going to do it. Good gag!

Jeff Fogsworth is so funny
I think that man was talking to that 75 year old woman when he was on the phone
Craig is funny without interrupting! Only Johnny Carson did that. The rest were not funny and only wanted to be in the lime lights.
I wanna be part of this man…
Sounds like he's a self admitted member of the LTPGA - Less Than Perfect Golfers Association, eh?
this is hilarious!!
He had a bit of a gut by the third trip. Success!
