- Is there such a thing as normal comedians?
One of my personal favorites. I highly recommend you watch this, if you don't know Steven from before, you should give him a chance. He really is one of a kind.
Craig Ferguson in the house.

These appearance were not listed on imdb and found them by accident after the video was made (I'm suspecting there are more):
feb 19th 2009: ua-cam.com/video/5ZEQRHvKWzI/v-deo.html
feb 12th 2009: ua-cam.com/video/zm9Gd_xhOMo/v-deo.html
March 31st 2009: ua-cam.com/video/I8vnGTL-Cj8/v-deo.html (my suspicion was correct)
Jan 13th 2006: ua-cam.com/video/yQ2jJ8xGlos/v-deo.html
somewhen 2005: ua-cam.com/video/Aav-RPgHOV0/v-deo.html
I swear the 13th visit audio was much more in sync in the editing program. This is a fking terrorist act, why does this shitt happen. Sry. I don't want you to think I didn't try.
The first time Steven was on is fascinating. Lots of long pauses between lines as they’re feeling each other out. Brilliant. Thanks for this!
His appearence from feb 9th and from feb 19th are exactly the same
changed now. thanks Pedro!
You brought us some gold, not from now, the earlier now.
Be proud that you did an outstanding job reminding us of our joy watching late night.
Btw, only late night program that I made sure not to miss.
If you see Geoff, tell him that Mike said "balls" .
What have you found out recently?
Getting Craig to say "Sometimes when I'm talking to you, I feel like I've wandered out of my league" is one hell of a compliment.
He meant abt the drugs mate
@@kavibharathy5690 ohhhh, shhhhh, damn... They craxk me UP, whether BSing or not... Makes no difference to me... 🤪💋🦋
Well said!
@@leavingtheisland Can you explain that "you need to phone ahead to see what's the conversation is gonna be" and "i don't like working without a net (steven's reply)" thanks
I don't know, Craig had him more often than the other way round. Craig's mind is sooo fast.
Both of these guys are criminally underrated.
Craig could riff with Steven Wright AND Robin Williams.
Steven went on a show with a crazy Scot, talking robot skeleton, and dancing horse and was still the weirdest one in the room. 😂
I wonder though, were Steven Wright and Robin Williams ever at the same time in the same space? I would guess not, as it would have caused the universe into its big crunsh phase.
I've never seen anyone make Steven laugh. Their chemistry is incredible.
Check out his Conan appearances
"I had some powdered water.........I didn't know what to add to it."
That was the first joke I ever heard from Steven Wright and it always stuck with me.
Went to a store that said "open 24hrs", there was a guy closing it up... I said "i thought u were open 24hrs?" he said "not in a ROW"
@@yuniq9gaming930 My favorite Steven Wright joke. So amazing to see him engaging with someone on his level.
Steven also pondered, if your knees bent the other direction what would a chair look like, but this was before rehab.
"I spilled spot remover on my dog. Now he's gone"
“I finally got around to reading the dictionary. Turns out the Zebra did it.”
had a friend that worked at the factory where they make fore hydrants... you couldnt park anywhere _near_ the place
Two amazingly quick witted comedians. And Steven Wright is known for his deadpan comedy. Watching him laugh made me so happy
@@kermitwilson It's like conan and bill burr. just good chemistry
More like unenthusiastic drunken absurdism
definitely a rare treat.👍
I don't recall ever having seen Steven smile before, and Craig had him outright laughing several times.
@@kermitwilson Can you explain that "you need to phone ahead to see what's the conversation is gonna be" and "i don't like working without a net (steven's reply)" thanks
In that last appearance, Steven really sums it up when he compliments Craig on creating an improvisational relationship for them (which Steven had never done before), and telling Craig that he has one of the best and quickest comedy minds ever.
A sincere and gracious compliment from a comedy legend.
😊😊😮😊😮😮😊😊😊😊😮😊😊😊😊😮
If you haven’t been told this enough already,
I can’t thank you enough for immortalizing
the greatest late night show
of all time
The much appreciated reverence
of your style,
and approach
are beyond comparison,
and your anthologies are,
by far,
the best
on this platform
Much respect
Cheers
I've noticed a few people say that to Craig. Even Barry Humphries as Dame Edna had to pause to compliment his quick wit.
I love Steven Wright's comedy so much. That dude is just next level.
Watching him push Brittany Murphy on a swing with Craig in the foreground was just utterly surreal. I was laughing my ass off and I couldn't figure out why... 🤣🤣🤣
Craig making Steven genuinely laugh several times and then surprising him with a callback to his own joke within the first 10 mins was just brilliant.
My favorite is 1:34:05
2:08:46 that little 3 bit riff they had, was beautiful. Supreme
YES ‼️ & Steven did Craig ‼️
At 2:13:00 I love this moment from Steven Wright to Craig: "You have one of the best, fastest comedy minds I've ever seen in my life." Real respect.
Thank you, man
Me too, thanks for mentioning that
That "now" conversation sounds like 2 dudes trying to talk on acid...who tf can understand😝😝😝
100%
Craig was one of very few that could keep up with Robin Williams. Those interviews are fantastic.
I believe that hanging out with Craig was one of Steven’s rare sources of sincere joy.
W-h-a-t¿
This dude makes every moment of his life fun. He’s laughing on the inside at all of this but can’t break the facade for the sake of the joke
@@A-HUMAN-SUPERNOVA maybe, I hope it was like that, but I doubt it.
Kcink'S so,you Know all aboutSteven, rare joy, wow that's neat
Sincere joy at that, thanks@kcigk-god, doofas dufas goof fool kcinkg 🎉🎉🎉❤🎉🎉
“Sometimes I’ll read music and then listen to a book on tape.”
Brilliant.
Steven Q: What do you like better: Music or Art? Music, cause if you try to put a painting into a cassette player, your just going to rip it.
this would be funny if it werent true for me *hmm*
It's called ironic absurdity
Craig Ferguson is one of the most talented guys ive ever seen. He is far funnier than anyone doing late night TV....by a mile. He was a comedians comedian, and you could see that in these Steven Wright appearances. Two geniuses that had fun riffing together, and i never saw Steven Wright do that with any else.
Its friggin criminal that we have a TV full of unfunny garbage on late nights now, and Craig Ferguson is gone. Like everything else these days, all we have is the memories of better times.
Godspeed Craig Ferguson.
Also, Steven Wright is one of the greatest of all time. How does he make every word he says, no matter how plain, funny?
Once Craig left a late night, I find that TV itself just went downhill
Weird ? He so good they rid of him...He too good! Networks kicked him out
He's too smart and funny for a mainstream late night show. They have to be shills that promote movies and books without being too confrontational or subversive so the advertisers don't get turned off.
Same story with Conan O'Brian.
How does he make every word funny?
Emotional intelligence, setup and delivery.
💯 This comment has aged like a fine wine. The only late night TV shows I watch now are old ones on YT. I Stumbled across this one and so glad I did.
These two are perfect together. They both clearly think each other is hilarious. I love watching really good comedians try to make each other laugh.
yea it reminds me of the Norm/david letterman dynamic. They both admire eachothers sense of humour and have a great dynamic together.
Yes! And Craig kinda adopts Steven's sense of humour when they're together!
He immerses himself in a surreal world of Steven Wright and treats him like a genuine friend.
I find that so admirable of Craig.
This is like the Seinfeld Show "a show about nothing"
Before Stephen talked about how quick Craig is...I’ve been thinking that all along.
@@JungleScene Oh, I had forgotten THAT duo, thanks though for reminding me..they were hilarious. Yes, they could have been brothers their humour was that much alike☺
"I see what you mean, even though I'm just listening to you"
Steven Wright is that rarest of things, a real comedic genius. And Craig is the only guy that can get on his wavelength. Fucking hilarious
Steven is one of my top 5 comics. Being 57 and seeing Steven HUNDREDS of times... the ONLY time I've EVER seen Steven laugh is on Craig's show. If that doesn't tell you how funny Craig is, NOTHING does. Getting 2 comic GENIUSES together is priceless!
Steven looks like a young Mel brooks
Agreed
@@artdickens oh no now I'm lulzing my pants, thanx a bunch
Getting two comedy geniuses *who don’t immediately turn it into a competition* is what’s brilliant about it.
That's fantastic.
I went to a book signing Steven Wright had and someone asked about Craig and he said he loved going on the show. So happy to find this compilation!
One of the best parts of Steven is when he tries hard not to smile, but can't help it.
Yes I love that! xD
kumppi I love it when he tries not to laugh too!
And he’s got such a great laugh too. He knows his whole persona revolves around that dry subtlety though.
I prefer his uvula
In 30 years of watching Steven, I've never seen him crack this much.
1:17:54 "It's the same shirt" funniest thing I have heard anyone say on CF. Craig knows this guy
is clever and embraces it. I love the subtlety
Man, every line outta Steven's mouth during the interviews sound like well crafted jokes. His crazy brain is fascinating, and Craig colors outside the lines perfectly w him as well!
I just watched the first one but I recognized a lot of the "banter" from his act, but he was quick with that "A lot of people that bought it complained"
and Steven in Reservoir Dogs
I've only ever seen Steve doing his stand up routine. I honestly never saw him smile, let alone laugh, before now!
You know it's funny, or maybe not, that only a couple people could get him to break deadpan and laugh. No one really even tried but Craig.. Even Conan, as young and quick-witted as they came, was afraid to talk to him off script (script being normal boilerplate green room topics given by the guest day of).
CF could. And did.
I'm guessing if Wright was asked about it night of, he'd say he was old and lazy. Or, even better, "huh?" Love Steven Wright.
Sorry, had to take the chance to say that while EVERYONE prefers Lawrence, I think Bridge is your masterpiece. And, throw your deserved SIR around a bit, man. Start off small maybe. Just add CBE to your handle? But, you gotta go full SIR soon.
David Lean is who David Lean is, right?
@@tdward23 Feck the Royals. I have come to think of them as wasters, scroungers, perverts and inbreds. I'd give the honours back only I spent good money on them, and you get a small pension every year. The money's better off in my pocket than that feds dodging deviant Prince Andrew, don't you think?!?
It is still a mystery why.., even after reading it back, but sure enough, at "small pensions" I develop, what we call, an impossibly uncontrollable North London accent ala Michael Caine.
Well that chin out sound is gonna be with me for a week....
@@tdward23 You channel emotions well in that case. Ever thought of work in the movies?! :)
Ps. Isn't Caine known as a Cockney ie an East Londoner?
In the 80's I was walking down 57th St. in Manhattan with a girl friend who had hair just like Steven Wright's. Walking along we actually passed him talking to someone. As we passed he just barely turned his head, and hardly interrupting his conversation, said to my friend, in that deadpan way, "Nice hair."
My friend and I laughed and his eyes kind of twinkled.
I love how layered his humor is. After the mention of a circumcision the actual punch line is that he cuts the joke short.
Very good. I didn't realise that
Man, you can really tell how much both of these guys enjoyed being on stage together. It’s a shame we didn’t get more of it.
We got enough.
There’s something very intriguing of two people who can have absolutely nothing planned but can carry on a comedy routine for 20 minutes about absolutely nothing and not one hitch.
It’s kinda like watching a painter that has no idea what he’s going to paint, throws a splash or a squiggle of paint and goes from there. Somehow it comes out uniquely beautiful and you just have to have it and take it home with you.
If only pornstars could be that creative.
Watching these two guys work together is like watching a great tennis match. Each player brings out the best in the other, and they're constantly making shots you can't believe you just saw. Very special stuff.
I love how Steven is so entertained by Craig.
It's cool that he's still entertained by vastly less talented comedians.
Craig's the only late night host that could make Steven really laugh.
I had never heard him laugh or even seen him smile until this.
He's entertained because he admires Craig's talent......... Did you not watch?
@@superscatboy I think he admires Craig (also welcome back to the world of SW)
These two fit together like Abbot and Costello without the need for rehearsal. You can feel the energy as they feed off one another. I've been following Steven Wright since the early days, seeing him in interactive situations with different egos over the years. I'm happy to be able to reconnect with Steven, I thought he had burned out, especially when he more or less went off the grid for quite a number of years. Thanks to UA-cam and now The Jayleno Fly making it possible to develop a timeline, chronicling his appearances past and present, I got a feel of where the man's head is...far from the earth at any given moment. Steven always takes over the interviews and his glib, deadpan style often confused his interviewers, with his concepts flying over their heads very quickly. It is taxing, to say the least, as an audience participant trying to keep up with Wright. It appears Ferguson has managed to match his outside-the-box and abstract humor and throw him off balance. And as this compilation shows, Wright warms up to Ferguson around the third meeting in this series and actually gets Wright to crack up regularly, something I didn't think possible. This compilation is perfect to display the interaction of two silly men utilizing Pythonesque humor but on a bit more intellectual and less silly level, although the silly is certainly scattered all throughout meetings. I am watching for a second time and still have a big grin on my face that will continue till the finish. Lots of fun. I am glad he and Ferguson have gained a new group of fans and they truly appreciate his slightly off-kilter way of thinking. It appears he has a solid sounding board with Ferguson bandying words and ideas back and forth, matching Steven quip for quip and thoroughly enjoying it. Thanks for this compilation and effort in making it possible.
15:43 a really good example of Wright's comedic style, and a trap that Craig falls into.
"He was using a dotted line." You get a face and eventually a smile from Craig, he's thinking technically and he thinks it's a pretty decent joke. Then he relaxes, and Wright goes on, "he caught every other fish." Craig had already let his guard down and the add-on genuinely surprises him and he can't help but laugh.
that fucking joke had me laughing hard, and watching Craig take that second part of the joke made me laugh even more. Amazing delivery
- Why am I loving all these Ferguson compilations so much?
- For tax purposes.
02:20:02 Aw! Such an authentic compliment from one of the best comedians ever, and Craig totally deserves it.
This collection of segments is a gem for comedy lovers, people who are into comedy will watch and study this in 30 years.
I love comedy. What a weird, unpredictable and unique form of Art.
I love how with every interview, Steven appears to get more giggly.
Snuck one passed a genius, Craig, with the "i look smaller in pictures." Fergs was overwhelmed for a bit. It's a chess match. 2 of the best.
Can you explain that "you need to phone ahead to see what's the conversation is gonna be" and "i don't like working without a net (steven's reply)" thanks
@@Ghost-vg6iq The girl working back stage is named Annette. ...craig twisted Steven's meaning to be "I don't like working without Annette".
I love it when you create these chronological chains and you get to see how the rapport develops over time and really matures it's something you can never really notice during a 10-year period run of the show but when you watch it back to back like this it's a whole new perspective and it's really amazingly entertaining. I appreciate the effort that you put into doing this.... there's a good bunch of interview threads from the show that could be compiled into actual comedic length release DVDs
That's such a 1999 thing to say in 2018.
I lovee it when you sit on your ass and comment but do nothing
@@fredmost I think I must be your soulmate
thanks
Ya mahn
These guys play off each other so damn good. Great comedy chemistry.
These guys are so funny together. They're brilliantly smart, funny gentlemen and never disrespectful towards one another.
I love this with Craig Ferguson, you can see how awkward the guests are the first time they are on, then after a few visits you can see how comfortable they are. Like Wright, Kunis and Freeman are great examples of this.
Craig is currently my "Best Late Show Host Ever". Really glad to see he had S.W. as a regular. Like peanut butter and chocolate, but in outer space.
It’s great how they trade setups and punchlines like jazz musicians improvising.
Brilliantly done.
Stephen Wright laughing is in itself comedy gold.
RIP Brittany Murphy.
Amen!
That's the first time I have ever seen any emotion come from Steven Wright!
Brittany was adorable in 'Clueless.' RIP
Brittany Murphy still hurts me by her departure…
It's a messed up world for some artists.
Eh, Brittany just an annoying, childish, junkie that people worship for her looks. She's a walking parasocial relationship that was good for nothing other than King Of The Hill, imo.
The few times Steve breaks are so telling! This is a rare filmed moment where two geniuses work hand and hand without ego to create something special.
I love the way that Craig makes Steven laugh! That's golden right there.
Steven Wright is an absolute comic genius! These interactions are a joy to watch and I’m so grateful for the upload. The world can enjoy this forever.
That Anette joke is so fucking clever. And then Steven Wright still manages to bring it to another level and say "it wouldn't have worked if she was named something else" ... and I just think that's so intelligent and quick.
Floored me 🤣
do you have a time stamp?
@@myearshurtnoone1367 1:00:09
It’s one of the oldest jokes in the book, but they made it pretty fresh
@@fezzik7619 crazy, I never heard it before.
Stephen once said “my grandpa had me go into the closet with him and slid the door shut and said it was elevator practice“ I’d like to think this is true and that’s where he got his sense of humor!! Thank you so much for posting this love Steven Wright!❤😂😅😊
Clash? I think Steven and Craig complemented each other. They both love going off on tangents. I remember Steven saying he loved going on the show because Craig was one of the few that could make him laugh. :)
I didn't mean to give such a vibe with that word. They clearly complement eachother as you say. I've observed that also, craig could make him genuinely laugh.
What a duo. Incredible improv skills. To make Wright laugh is quite an accomplishment. Mandatory training for any comic hopeful.
I loved the late late show. I didn't realize how many times Steve was on it.
They must have been great friends.
Simply Genius. Can you imagine just setting in the same room with these two and not necessarily taking part in the conversation but only listening for just one hour? Forget Drink or Drugs you wouldn’t need them whatsoever. What a trip. “I’ve been having premonitions of flashbacks “
your( wright) you wouldn't need drugs to listen to these two craigs😵💫
These are two of the funniest people I've ever seen. Craig's high energy comedy plays off well against Steven Wrights laid-back style perfectly, and vica versa.
I saw Steven Wright live in the 90's. Fantastic comedian. I love how these guys clearly spent every segment trying to make each other laugh.
YNWA
Yeah, I saw him a couple times. The first time, I reached a point where I wanted him to stop, because I was literally in moderate-to-severe pain - stomach, back, shoulders - from laughing hard for roughly 90 minutes straight. The thing is, most of his jokes are one-liners, so they're all punchline. You don't get any recovery time before you're busting a gut again.
Oddly, the second time, he wasn't terribly good. Don't remember exactly why.
I aspire to have every conversation on this level (for tax purposes). 2 absolutely brilliant minds on display! Thanks for putting this together.
Craig is the last late night comedian I watched on a nightly basis. Moments in time never to be regained, only rewatched.
This was a stroke of genius, Mr. Fly! It never would have occurred to me to gather up as much Steven Wright as possible! This was so much fun to watch. I remember seeing Steven on various shows throughout the 90s, and "I Have A Pony" was one of the first comedy albums I bought as a teenager. Thanks so much! Another wonderful job well done, sir!
Sure thing bro! Thank you! Happy you liked it man:D
The chemistry between Craig and steven is strange.. but right. They compliment eachother. It's like a good rock song.
@Brandon S wut r u implying
Yeah they do compliment each other!
Steven: "Nice suit";
Craig: "I like your hat"
Brandon S i think Craig's show isnt staged. Thats why it fucks up all the time lol.
I love it too...but Steven is sort of out-gunned here. His standup is absolutely brilliant, but it is written, practiced and performed as standup...he isn't a match, in my opinion, for the absolute brilliance of Ferguson, when they are both on the fly, riffing. There were some funny moments from Steven, but he seems genuinely awed at Ferguson's comedic brilliance, and often doesn't seem to have a witty comeback. Agree the best pairing ever was Craig and Robin Williams...those two were on the same level, and kept ascending to higher levels as they riffed...those were wonderful shows! I sure miss Craig (not to mention Robin!).
@Brandon S At 2:13:00 "You have one of the best, fastest comedy minds I've ever seen in my life."
He literally says its entirely improvised, you clearly didn't watch any of it.
The best talk show host....ever. He's quick, crazy, and keeps pace with the crazy Steven Wright.
It's amazing how abstract Steven's mind is, folding topics and jokes into/over one another and seeing Craig piece it together to see the joy that comes out of it. Purely awesome
This is what comedy is all about. Damn, they complement one another so well. Thank you for uploading this gem 💎. Many many thanks.
When you get two great comedians, top of their game, together it is priceless. I love to watch them crack each other up.
Steven Wright truly is the Salvador Dalí of stand-up. Fantastic compilation, too bad about the missing appearances. The chemistry between these two is amazing.
Dali and Carl Jung of comedy
Missing? Which ones are missing?
Steven always barely hides his laugh at his own humor, but Craig breaks him.
This is a real gem. Two of my favorite comedians in a 2 hour compilation of interviews. Thanks for taking the time to find all of these clips and putting them all together. :)
Fantastic :D! It was fun doing it, sure thing!
What an amazing comedy instrument Steven Wright is. And he's been playing like a virtuoso for 40 years.
"I have two pairs of reading glasses, one for fiction, one for nonfiction. I've read the Bible twice wearing each pair of glasses. It's the same."
This is unironically the deepest thing any comedian has ever said ever.
Underrated line. Steven is top 5 comedian for sure. He is so clever
You should try one eye in fiction and the other in nonfiction
What’s it mean tho
@@TimboTIt's clear as broken glass. Never judge a book by its cover, unless it's the bible.
@@porkfriedrice1530 what do you mean "underrated line"?
how is it i never heard of this man, but only having seen him on craig's show for ten minutes, i can tell he was one of the all time greats.
He does some really funny stuff with Conan....especially the recent podcasts.
The highest compliment you can do to a living legend like Stephen is that rate moment that you make him laugh.
These two are amazing. Each one creates comedy gold on their own. But together? Phenomenal!
Wonderful collection. I miss this show and it’s absurdity. Steven was his perfect guest.
Steven is just flat out my favorite comedian of all time! He is just so much more unique and smarter then other comics to me.
Agreed
One my favorites ever was Stevens first visit to the show and he is used to the host being the straight man and Craig is cracking up the crowd with these subtle jabs, and Steve stops looks at Craig and says: woah man, you are far out. He had no idea what a madman Craig was. I miss Craig.
Unbelievably funny! They have very compatible sense of humour. Fantastic!
Craigs brilliance shines through in these videos. You can tell Steven has a huge catalogue of one liners as well but Craig lives in the moment and very hard to keep uo with
Two of my very favorite comedians. They are perfect together. They should do a TV show together, based on their unique brand comedy. Man, I think that would fly and fly well.
"can you imagine if this was really happening?"
This is the focker who invented red pill / blue pill. Actually he's a red pill with two legs....
Each and every dsmv gets 15 min.
No.
Yes. Except no because it really did, but, that's just what I imagine.
It was just my imagination
Running away with me
THis was fantastic. Started watching this vid thinking it was dumb and a waste of time and I'd never make it through the whole thing, but after splitting it up into about 3 nights, I had so much fun and even got teary eyed by the end. Thank you so much!!!!!!!!
Same here. The last segment when Steven opened up hit me in the feels.
Yeah, that was a genuine moment, spontaneous and heartfelt.
This literally brings me out of my dark depression thanks so much for putting this together. It saves life's.
Hope things are looking up Chris! Take care.
I totally relate...hope you're better
@@caseyclausen2627 Thank you Casey, slowly but surely they are thanks to people like you 😂
@@shijo222 thanks Aya I am how are you? Its funny the comedians who are the funniest have been through the darkest. Same way with musicians.
Never seen anyone stump Craig before. There were so many times that he just didn't know how to respond, but he was able to make Steven laugh, too, so his brilliance still shines through. Thanks for editing and posting.
I love how they test who can go longer with their made up bit
Great job & dedication JLF
hahah , they make for a great combo!
Thanks man!
"...I almost went insane trying to get a close-up photograph of the horizon."
-Steven Wright
It's so much fun watching Ferguson out-surreal Wright. Wright is NOT used to that.
This was a real "blast from the past" treasure, thank you so much!! I always loved Steven Wright's twisted humor, & this was absolutely a treat!👏🏼🤣💓✌🏼
In all my years, I've never seen Steve smile. But the Snatches joke made him give a grin.
Appreciate it you jackals
Thanks for putting this compilation together. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate it.
Try...
I've just been on a binge of those Ferguson compilations - with Steven Wright, Eddie Izzard, Betty White, Billy Connoly, and I noticed something in Craig I've never seen being present so much in any of the other late night hosts.
He treats all of them as his real genuine friends.
And even more: he mimics the styles of his guests' sense of humor for their segments.
When he's with Steven Wright, he adopts Stephen Wright's sense of humor.
When he's with Eddie Izzard - he adopts Eddie Izzard's sense of humour.
While most of the hosts usually remain themselves despite of the guest.
Like he knows and understands all their senses of humor from inside.
Like he's a meta-comedian or smth.
And he's immersing himself in the world of his guests.
I find that so admirable, a really high evolved human sense of real empathy and understanding the guest on a deeper level.
That makes Fergy so special and genuine among the late-night hosts.
The Robin Williams segments are side splitting😂🤣😂
I’ve been binge watching these myself. I started with all the women, didn’t realize he also had men on...Good premise with no annoying band, and no condescending.
@Spalien Acecraft I think YOU do black tar heroin.😏 Seriously dude, why would you say something like that? He's funny, that's the reason people watch... I really don't care about the other stuff..personal life, political affiliations, that shit is ABSOLUTELY unimportant to me.
I think that is a great observation. I am going to check out more of these, I watched a bunch onetime and now I know what it is that I like so much. Ferguson has to be the most present host on television, I don't think there is an arrogant bone in his head.
Yes, I was amazed by his connection with Robyn Williams..they appeared to be lifelong friends, then I watched other episodes with OTHER comedians and he appears just as comfortable with anyone else. I'm sure that there is a natural comradery between comedians just like any other group of like minded people, but it really seems to be more than that because I've not noticed this "connection" between other comedians. He is just THAT comfortable to be around it appears.
It's a weird feeling being so filled with joy and at the same time bummed out that you can't give a video more than one thumbs up.
Love Steven Wright. I remember my favorite bit of his was about wearing mirrors on your ankles when you go into the woods, because snakes are afraid of snakes too. Or that snakes are so grumpy because they can't wear vests. Or, I live on a one way dead end street, I have no idea how I got there.
The empty box comeback. Love these two. Masters of their craft.
Undoubtedly the best talk show host to ever live. These two need to do a podcast
NOBODY can make Steven laugh so much as Craig and Josh, legends
The worst thing about watching this was the realization that the show isn't on tv anymore. Not seeing them on tv is as bad as hearing that they both died, and I mean that. Having said that, it wouldn't matter which two comedians you put together, no pair would ever be as funny as these two. I miss both of you, Steven and Craig.
They DIED ?!!
You really should see Ferguson with Robin Williams....they are amazing together
@@ginnielynch9992 No they are both alive still. But not seeing them on tv anymore is as bad as if they had died.
@@ginnielynch9992 I've seen them together but Robin is funnier on his own.
@@fourbypete I bet they would disagree
If you watch the whole thing. You see that through the various appearances the way Steven Wright speaks about Craig Ferguson at the end, is genuine. As you literally can see the moments he realizes how awesome Craig is, how smart and witty, and altogether an amazing entertainer.
Steven Wright is my favorite comedian, his dry humor kills me.
IF you don't know him, there is a treasure trove of vids online.
But would you really know him after looting the "treasure"
Stephen Wright is such a damn comedic genius. One of his DVD's had a bonus short film about a man returning home from war. It was completely silent, and one of the funniest damn things I've ever seen.
@Epsilon Karamazov what is the name of the DVD? Thanks
@@LordStanley94 Sorry, bud. I rented it from a Family Video probably 8 years ago. Just buy every single one of his DVD's, and it should work out for you.
@@overweightactor thanks. You are right
Its probably on utooob
@@eskee1 just buy it. Artists need money too
"Premonitions of flashbacks" reminded me of his line to Paul Russer on "Mad About You" about being a "peripheral visionary"...I can see off into the future, but only off to the side.
Possibly one of the greatest interview chains I've ever seen, really enjoyed it.
Next I'm going to try to turn on the volume to also listen to it, so this also has a real potential to become one of the greatest interview chains I've ever seen and heard.
And that's saying a lot (mostly because I usually don't say this much. I like to keep it short and concise, you see.).
Dude, thank you very very much! I felt good reading that, because I had a something to do with its existence. Enjoy bro!
This reads like two robots conversing.

LOOOOOOL
Slow clap for you
@@timw7483 Sounds like two omelets to me.
They don't allow actually funny people to host shows anymore because the funniest people are independent thinkers and they wouldn't be caught dead carrying on the networks insane delusional narratives. Craig always was the funniest late show host on television and with the looming death of network tv, he's going to keep that title. Thank you for keeping Craig going so well here. Your videos are great and very much appreciated.
Oh, he is a legend. Thank you for uploading all the laughs at his creativity.
"we had the space flown in from Italy"
He liked that. That was right up Steven street.
Those two made such a great duo, each trying to out weird the other :)
This is the best thing I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much for this today.
