labber When Craig said: there are bits in here at 18:01. You can tell that caught her by surprise and it got her laughing good. But she had water to help keep it back
it happens sometimes. i hated someone and then we magically got along based off mutual hatred. it wasn't that intense. more like we were testing each other and realized its easier to get along. this has nothing to do with this and i'm blabbing dpsjgdp sfgjp sfjg fpg
charlyne is really clever, and quick. you could tell craig got thrown a couple times by her snarky humor, but once he caught on to her style it really flowed between the two of them, wise choice to give her more time.
Totally agree, in her first appearance, I first thought, boy this will be a loser do nothing guest spot, but WOW, she played her comic style so perfect, and to Craigs great talent to improvise, as he understood her role.........Magic!
Agreed, LOL early on her first appearance , she said she was writing poetry about whiskey and cigars. I was thinking how strange of a topic for a young women. Five min. later, Oh now I get it, I was sucked in by her sarcastic remark that she can seem so sincere.
@@HikoSeijuroXIII I like fallen, i don't really get kimmel's humor but if he attracts hot chicks as guest's then ill watch. the days of hot chicks is getting far and few between these days tho. the days of women like Adrienne Barbeau, and Sophia Loren are over but jennifer anisten seems to be timeless.
This is why Craig was the greatest late-night host of all time. He wasn't concerned with bringing his guests into his exact comic style, he's a genius at flowing with the timing of/chemistry with his guests. Incredible stuff.
Cyba IT usually when you're not sure, it's a bit of both. Charlyne has time to perfect the art, butI think the only one who's perfected it would be someone like Norm macdonald
I have never seen Craig speechless. It happened twice with her. I could literally see him think about how to react - something I have never seen in the hundreds of hours I’ve seen with him so far. PRICELESS
That's how I felt when Norm Macdonald was on Craig's show but in reverse. Norm usually is never shaken or stumped but Craig threw him for a loop. Always interesting how personalities play together.
I’ve lost count how many times I’ve watched all these Ferguson compilation videos but this bit of her with that stool will always have me coming back She truly outwitted him so masterfully
She doesn’t seem to have anything really to plug or promote, I feel like Craig just met Charlyne, thought she was funny and wanted to show her off to the world, and I thank him for that.
When Craig said: there are bits in here at 18:01. You can tell that caught her by surprise and it got her laughing good. But she had water to help keep it back. So she was keeping up the weird persona, hence she was quite good
£14! You have just cost me £14 .Pour quoi? My bloody instinct being led - or fed - by your comment.Damn you,Mistress Kristine! (...how creepy was that?!).
They are both very intelligent and blessed with the same quick mental and verbal skills. They are not weird, they are playing 3 dimensional verbal chess. They both enjoy each other immensely as anyone can see.
When she put that stool on the chair... my laughter turned into such a cough I almost gagged. Had to pause and get a tissue. Then I ran it back and did it again.
If you ever see the wonderful Michael Lannon/Andrew Haigh series (2 seasons+movie) "Looking," she turns up very briefly behind the counter in a donut shop: instantly memorable and totally deadpan hilarious.
This is the first time I've seen her interviews I love the way they roll with it at all times. So much better than almost entirely scripted interviews while showcasing their wit. Craig is my favorite post Johnny Carson era talk show host.
Absolutely brilliant! She's almost a female version of him.Pure comedy, completely absurd... and he's not at all creepy! Unlike Letterman, who's a total creep.What a refreshing change. Just wish I was high as a kite late at night when this was originally aired.
Honestly, I thought her first reaction to it was her just getting to the pause and Craig not getting it. I was hoping after she asked what the longest one is that she'd say "well we've outdone that already".
She is so refreshingly different that people sometimes don’t get how funny she is. She has a small roll in So This Is 40 and when she gets her moment, it’s hilarious on an other level.
I first saw her on House. Then when I saw the great Andrew Haigh/Michael Lannan series Looking, she turned up in a tiny role -- in the donut shop in Modesto -- and I cracked up... she made every line count. Truly an original!
Also, it may very well have been written by one of the writers of the show. Craig is extremely funny, but this is definitely not an example of his quick wit.
Some say the long-awaited Yi-Ferguson awkward pause has still yet to happen. Charlyne has hoped for the moment. She's searched high and low for Craig, cardigan in hand. She looked for him in the Roadhouse, but to no avail. She was saving a table for him, when two brutish members of the Bourgeoisie removed her from her seat, not even supplying a Tom Hanks stool as a courteous alternative. So she did as she had done many times before. She became a turtle - a purposeful reptile among accidental amphibians. But instead of eating lettuce, she crawled on hands and knees into a living shell of standing, dancing partygoers. That's when she realized. She would never find Craig. She would never have the pleasure of entering into an awkward pause. That was impossible, because... because the pause had already begun. They were already in it. Removed by time and space, but in it nonetheless, and there was no escape. An unending moment, like living inside a dream. Her soul, losing control, wanted to ask, 'who built this heart?' ... Her mouth opened, but only let loose screams of rage.
I really wish Charlyne made more than just two appearances on this show. I could watch these two go at it like this for literally hours and hours on end.
No question that Charlyne is weirder. When Craig does "weird" it always feels a bit deliberate, whereas I think Charlyne's weirdness is just her natural state. 😁 "Oxy-kitten. Meow!"
I know the Peruvian flute players Craig is talking about! They followed me around the world for years. Last time I saw them was Edinburgh. Haven't seen them in a few years. I hope they're ok.
When Craig said: there are bits in here at 18:01. You can tell that caught her by surprise and it got her laughing good. But she had water to help keep it back
yeah she can give it right back at him just as fast if not faster....she rolled right along with the whiskey and cigars....craig's used to being faster lol....
Maaaan, when he pulled out the Tom Cruise foot stool and she put it on the seat I bursted out laughing so hard, was not expecting that 😂😂😂😂 that was very quick-witted
I love how you could literally say anything with Craig and he would still be good a making a conversation about it, now people like both the jimmys would just laugh for an extended period of time and ask something else
I love that she dressed for comfort.. I always feel so worried for the women that come out in the tiny skirts etc.. Low key wondering if they only overdo the sexy dress because they are not confident in what to say 😬
i never saw 2 people understanding each other by not understanding

I think they understand each other very well.
I was gonna say that *wheeze-*
"I'm a stranger, so I can tell you anything"
I'm saving that for my life
I read this comment right as she said it and my mind is blown.
I will use this on my next job interview
Me on social media:
You didn't know this?? I've been doing this since childhood! Or have I?
charlyne is really clever, and quick. you could tell craig got thrown a couple times by her snarky humor, but once he caught on to her style it really flowed between the two of them, wise choice to give her more time.
“ i know a guy that can make that happen”
He was caught off guard by the stool on the seat move.
YEAH
Totally agree, in her first appearance, I first thought, boy this will be a loser do nothing guest spot, but WOW, she played her comic style so perfect, and to Craigs great talent to improvise, as he understood her role.........Magic!
Wish they talked more often
She somehow comes across as both supremely sincere....and sarcastic....at the exact same time.
And I have zero idea which is which.
I like her.
Agreed, LOL early on her first appearance , she said she was writing poetry about whiskey and cigars. I was thinking how strange of a topic for a young women. Five min. later, Oh now I get it, I was sucked in by her sarcastic remark that she can seem so sincere.
"awkward paws, it's a movie i made about a shy dog" lmao
Thanks. I didn't even get that,hilarious.
Such an underrated quip
@Bobb Grimley @Bobb Grimley says the guy who obviously didn't get the joke 🤣 now THAT is entirely Stupid!
@Bobb Grimley you can disagree all you'd like, you'd still be stupid
It's awkward yet never becomes cringy, it's fascinating!
I know it just wonderful
Never? :-D
He's pretty cringey some of his guests are young. He's a funny guy but sometimes I just don't know.
@@m.k.camara9459 Yes, he is.
@@m.k.camara9459 oh come on, some of them give just as much back
This guys show destroys Fallon and Kimmel. It's so much better, and he's genuinely funny. Sad he retired.
check out his podcast
Very sad he is not on......he is the Best!
That's not really a feat though, is it? Everyone's funnier than Fallon and Kimmel.
@@HikoSeijuroXIII I like fallen, i don't really get kimmel's humor but if he attracts hot chicks as guest's then ill watch. the days of hot chicks is getting far and few between these days tho. the days of women like Adrienne Barbeau, and Sophia Loren are over but jennifer anisten seems to be timeless.
There was Carson, there was Ferguson. All others were just wannabe pretenders (end of discussion)
This is why Craig was the greatest late-night host of all time. He wasn't concerned with bringing his guests into his exact comic style, he's a genius at flowing with the timing of/chemistry with his guests. Incredible stuff.
Can we get a video with her and Audrey Plaza trying to interview each other?
Website guy - I think his point is that they are both such scatterbrains that they would not be able to focus on interviewing the other.
juan twotree that would be epic
I would die 😂😂😂😂😂
Evelyn Ayala don't die
juan twotree It's Aubry Plaza. Not Audrey.☺
I do like your name, though.
Very clever, juan twotree, very clever indeed.
*Dang.... it seems like Craig can just open up to anybody and play on their field... best talk show host ever because of it...*
FifteenYearOldGirl unlike unlike jimmy fallon who doesnt always understand his guests
Fallon and Kimmel are so behind this guy,what are their networks thinking?
I could watch several hours of just these two interacting.
Yep!!!
Wholesome ..
Same… I wish she could have made more than just two appearances on his show.
They're so weird but funny
She is *extremely* fast. Wit, sweet and funny.
the only problem is her laugh xD
That's what happens when you're weird AF. It's a great place to live :3
Not sure if she is really nieve or it's an act. Either way is funny and is a perfect counterpoint to Craigs dry wit
Cyba IT usually when you're not sure, it's a bit of both. Charlyne has time to perfect the art, butI think the only one who's perfected it would be someone like Norm macdonald
@@mr.coconut2310 Good point Ruby and yes, Norm has the "appearing to be simple but is actually sharp and witty" routine down pat. :)
Craig was a little unsure of the situations she put him in. A comic master piece
Love when comedians combat wits. Craig is tough to beat. She surprised him.
She's the only one that has made him pause and really work. All the other banter with the ladies is cutesy sexual, but this is leveled *UP*!
Yea he was struggling during the first one to be wholesome
RicoChavez1 Well, to be fair, she's a comedian too and has to promote herself more.
she comes with interesting stuff to say like no one else
What through him off is that she is a child with an unusual appearance, at least as far as the show is concerned.
I have never seen Craig speechless. It happened twice with her. I could literally see him think about how to react - something I have never seen in the hundreds of hours I’ve seen with him so far. PRICELESS

Totally!
Great people. ❤
I’ve lost count how many times I’ve watched all these Ferguson compilation videos but this bit of her with that stool will always have me coming back
She truly outwitted him so masterfully
then he just stands there dutifully like a jackass 😂
That stool though. Girl known how to get laughs from a prop
Yeh my hardest laugh was when she sat on the stool, I was not expecting that at all.
He’s a boy and also 33 look it up
So does my wife.
“I know a guy” ... I freakin died
Brandon Greene r.i.p
She really jammed him up there. He was floundering for a minute
@@molehansman247 Yup. Pretty hard to get him that way.
I've never seen Craig uncomfortable EVER on his show until he started tugging his ear repeatedly haha. Good job Charlyne!!!
She looks like a Bobs Burger character
Chris Whitworth tina
Rabbit ears
T S rabbit ears?😂 you mean louies?
I freaking died
I laughed so hard when she asked 'Are you still feeling dry? '
Me too! I didn't get it at first, only when she said it that I realized she asked him to drink water because he was austere lol
She doesn’t seem to have anything really to plug or promote, I feel like Craig just met Charlyne, thought she was funny and wanted to show her off to the world, and I thank him for that.
I think Judd Apatow did it first
She’s cute...in a weird way. Those two feed off each other like Abbot and Costello.
She's definitely one of the best
Matt Gregory the best at ?
FuckYouGoogle she seemed unaccustomed to that greeting in the beginning since she grew up very differently.
When Craig said: there are bits in here at 18:01. You can tell that caught her by surprise and it got her laughing good. But she had water to help keep it back. So she was keeping up the weird persona, hence she was quite good
FuckYouGoogle lol what? I’ve seen a lot of his interviews and he usually don’t hug new guests. Not everyone is a hugger
Matt Gregory Did you know that she’s the voice actor of Ruby from Steven Universe?
I had no idea she was so funny. She's keeping up with Craig no problem and even caught him offguard a few times, which is hard to do!
I think she is a highly intelligent person.
Kenny Rademeyer well she is Asian.
yun xing she is Asian. These Asian likes to claim some exotic ancestry...
robert lee To me, Asian is exotic.
And not funny
@@thanostitan5827 .....
"whatever you want boss" wish this show never ended.
If anyone is interested, her book is great. Called "Oh the Moon". You can find it on Amazon :D
£14! You have just cost me £14 .Pour quoi? My bloody instinct being led - or fed - by your comment.Damn you,Mistress Kristine! (...how creepy was that?!).
Just read it. I want to meet her someday.
Thank you, I already bought Evangeline Lilly's children's book she advertised on this show, now I gotta buy this one, too.
I'll check it out. Thanks person.
Is that good?
They are both very intelligent and blessed with the same quick mental and verbal skills. They are not weird, they are playing 3 dimensional verbal chess. They both enjoy each other immensely as anyone can see.
Nailed it!
They are weird, but that's their gimmick. 😁
The rest of what u said is true, tho'. These 2 concepts are _not_ mutually exclusive.
the only person i've ever seen out-random Craig! it's wonderful1
Check out when he invited Carrie Fisher as his guest.
When she put that stool on the chair... my laughter turned into such a cough I almost gagged. Had to pause and get a tissue. Then I ran it back and did it again.
She’s adorable we must protect her at all costs.
Why?
I checked "her" wikipedia page and it's full of them and their. Din't get any of what is written there.. "They attended to college" etc
@@gringostarr69 yo it's that stupid fuckin him/he, her/she, they/they're bullshit..
Even if we don’t protect her, I think she would still have lots of fun.
@@donaldgraham6414 she prefer they/them
we want craig back on late night
Sadly he wasn't a fan. He probably isn't coming back.
He doesn't wasn't to come back. Leave him be
He said himself that he wanted to finish the show before he'd get bored of it.
He has a show on history now.
Yeah and none of them political nonsense that talk show hosts do every fucking minute in their shows
This was a master class in improve. No matter where the conversation went they both ran with it. It didn't matter how strange.
She is very different from other female guests and it is quite a nice change
I loved her character on House. Apparently, she is like that real life. So awkwardly funny. Love it.
She was perfectly cast in House. The combination of awkward and savvy was exactly what was needed.
If you ever see the wonderful Michael Lannon/Andrew Haigh series (2 seasons+movie) "Looking," she turns up very briefly behind the counter in a donut shop: instantly memorable and totally deadpan hilarious.
Such a shame they only had 2 segments together, I could watch them being chaotic for hours
I'm watching this in 2019 and she is indeed 33 now. Man time flies.
A comment from right before Corona struck... time sure does fly
She's just gorgeous! Her personality!
she made him genuinely laugh, she is my kind of woman
This is the first time I've seen her interviews I love the way they roll with it at all times. So much better than almost entirely scripted interviews while showcasing their wit. Craig is my favorite post Johnny Carson era talk show host.
So genuine, nice to hear her converse.
Jason Tonelli her shoes can talk?!

Totally agree. Well stated. They are fun. Would like to see more of them together! And yes, letterman is a total creep and pathetic jerk!
Why must you compare.each are good at what he does..avoid being narrow minded.. your opinions are heard..but cold be more tasteful
Letterman is and old savage bastard indeed
She's quirky and funny. Definitely awkward enough without the pause... 😄
Honestly, I thought her first reaction to it was her just getting to the pause and Craig not getting it. I was hoping after she asked what the longest one is that she'd say "well we've outdone that already".

This is improv gold
Craig is sorely missed. And Charlene is stealth hilarious.
omg that bit about the spit getting in the nestle's quick killed me
This has got to be one of my favorite interviews/interactions on the show. This is amazing.
awkward paws. man he's quick.
g shrinivas she’s as quick
He's been talking about awkward pauses for a long time, I think he had plenty of timer to think of the "awkward paws." thing ahead of time.
Also, it may very well have been written by one of the writers of the show. Craig is extremely funny, but this is definitely not an example of his quick wit.
Her character, Dr Park, brought a dead "House" back to life in it's final season.
Awesome gal! Should have been a regular, she's a perfect guest for Craig.
I adore her
Dude, how have I not heard about this gal before, she's so funny!
She was on the show House, she was great, the show was too i guess
She was on House for the final season, and she also voiced Ruby in Steven Universe.
I love her. She's the best kind of quirky.
Not one person in the comments has mentioned that this is the precious baby who voices the other precious baby, Ruby.
"I'M AN ETERNAL FLAME, BABY!"
This is why I knew not to 100% trust the other Rubies that showed up.

She may be now, but this video is at least 10 years old.
Ok, it's almost 10 years old.
I recently turned 33 and I am seeing videos about the number 33 EVERYWHERE, what's up with this?! The YT algorithm ghost haunting me!?
Jero Toro nah broski its just that phenomenon where your brain focuses extra hard on important patterns. Someone follow up.
@@jerotoro2021 the 33 number is also the Masonic numbers and Symbolic 'G'
She is quite adorable actually, very interesting girl.
the audience didn't catch the brilliance of the Awkward Pause [Paws] joke
such a hilarious combo, there's no usual sexual tension and its just as hilarious as other interviews with women
Oh, there's still sexual tension. Craig is a God
There's plenty. Think real hard and pat close attention when a man makes a woman laugh like at 13:55
I love them, I love them so much. I think these segments with Yi are my favorite of all of Ferguson's show, and that is saying a lot
Totally enjoyed this interview...two people honestly engaged in each other.....two genuine tricksters!
I really wish Charlyne made more than just two appearances on this show. I could watch these two go at it like this for literally hours and hours on end.
She is so damn cute and that laugh!
Grumpy Old Man I'd wife her up 💯
Adorable
Damn, she's sharp, and quick-witted.
I like her personality. The obvious continuity problem is funny.
This felt like a battle, who is going to be funnier.
she won
I lied!!! I watched this three times in a row!!( I wish it went on for longer.These two together are a breath of fresh air).
No question that Charlyne is weirder. When Craig does "weird" it always feels a bit deliberate, whereas I think Charlyne's weirdness is just her natural state. 😁
"Oxy-kitten. Meow!"
She's prime to be a Queen
She's adorable.
I mean she did a show singing “nothing compares 2 u” while a guy shaves her hair.
I know the Peruvian flute players Craig is talking about! They followed me around the world for years. Last time I saw them was Edinburgh. Haven't seen them in a few years. I hope they're ok.
That was the most pleasant 20 minutes of my life
When Craig said: there are bits in here at 18:01. You can tell that caught her by surprise and it got her laughing good. But she had water to help keep it back
They are fantastic together! She's hilarious! 👅
yeah she can give it right back at him just as fast if not faster....she rolled right along with the whiskey and cigars....craig's used to being faster lol....
FuckYouGoogle he tried, but it was clear that she was unaccustomed to that greeting when she first came on
Vince Vaughn was the fastest of all the guests I remember.
He was very fast.
Chris O'Dowd is fast too
Somewhere between the 1et and 2nd she realized this talk show fits her style completely.
And one of her acting jobs was on the tv show HOUSE. Her character was her just being herself except that she was a doctor. I found her endearing.
I like that Craig Ferguson doesn't know what network he's on.
She never did return. Some say there are 4 alternate realities where they actually had an awkward pause.
What we failed to realise was that the whole pair of interviews was an awkward pause.
Maaaan, when he pulled out the Tom Cruise foot stool and she put it on the seat I bursted out laughing so hard, was not expecting that 😂😂😂😂 that was very quick-witted
“This pig also has a contempt for the bourgeoisie” classic!
wow shes awesome
Thnx jayfly!!!
We all appreciate your hard work giving us the awesome Mr Ferguson
Enjoy brother!:D
Her laugh is perfect
at the start I was like, what kind of cringe fest is this?
At the end it was the best thing I watched this year.
two lovely weirdos weirding out to each others weirdness.
Thank you so much for putting these in chronological order. I would have been so lost had you not. 😄👍
I love how you could literally say anything with Craig and he would still be good a making a conversation about it, now people like both the jimmys would just laugh for an extended period of time and ask something else
I hear you, it's really putting me off.
This is one of the best interviews Craig has done. She’s fantastic 😮
Wow!!!! I love the two of them together. What a funny mix!!!
their back and forth was very entertaining, especially the stool part... didn't expect that lol
Yeah. she was EASILY one of the best.
I love that she dressed for comfort.. I always feel so worried for the women that come out in the tiny skirts etc..
Low key wondering if they only overdo the sexy dress because they are not confident in what to say 😬
When two types of comedy come together
Whoever thought a show with a voiced over robot and a Scotsman would be missed so much.
How could Charlyne have only been on the show twice? They had such great chemistry.
I keep watching this interview even as I have less and less idea what on earth is going on. She's so delightfully unusual
she is and i now love her. she threw him off, quite funny actually
she didnt but go off
@@Easy420skate she did but go off
She is a cutie pie. I think she’s funny af too.
This is incredible! I could watch them for hours.
Nice, lol. One of my favorite interactions on this show. When she started playing with the high chair was hilarious
