Josh was such a great addition to the show. Him and Craig work so well together. I love when he says a voice and then pretends he has no idea what;s going on
With all due respect to the large number of extremely funny talk show hosts / sidekick combinations that there have been, there's never been a better one then these two.
"Keeping it clean. Keeping it fresh. Fresh Meadows." "For the light tickle of grass tips on your behind, try Fresh Meadows." "When you need the absorbant nature of turf, try Fresh Meadows." "Why not mow your own lawn?" LOL, I could listen to these guys all day.
We need more people like him. Laughing at stupid stuff and teaching us that life is crazy at times. I went through the worst phase in my life yet, but every time I see Craig + Geoff, I loosen up a little. I learned to laugh at the absurdity that is life.. It's not an overstatement to say they saved me a little. Thanks Craig, hope you live a long life and save many more!!!
Craig and Josh are masters of repetition in comedy. They are really good at finding something funny, improving off of it and recalling at the right time to just make it even funnier. They are brilliant together and it made the show so good
What makes the character of Geoff feel so real in the moment is how he jokes around with Craig on his level. It grounds the situation very well. They do a lot of work to make it seem like two friends shooting the shit.
Most original concepts on any talkshow to this date, to be honest. From the skeleton, to the horse, to the old timey phone, to the random audience dinner give a ways, to the impressions (by host and the geoff voice actor). Shows nowadays are replacing stoics with pansies!!
@@stevendalloesingh1214 Today it's all just politics, and politics, and more politics, and some stupid skits, and laughing at nothing, color by numbers interviews... it sucks.
@@Krystalmyth 2 years later and it has become worse than I ever imagined. I really feel sorry this generation doesn't have a show like this. Now more than ever we need shows to cut through the bs and remind people it's OK to stop taking everything so seriously and just have some damn fun.
bloodyhellghost i watched that video for the first time a few days ago (late, yes, but better now than never i say lolol) i laughed SO hard!!! hahahaha laughing now just thinking about it. hahahahaha xD love Craigy Ferg. lolol
Those two were incredible together. It was so good seeing a host actually try and keep up with Robin instead of just buckling the seatbelt and hanging on for dear life.
Josh Robert Thompson: the man behind the curtain of Geoff. Great foil for Craig, it was a different show when he came onboard, with his live Geoff character. So damn funny!
I wish Craig would do a weekly show on HBO like Bill Maher and I love the phrase "What the hell" I use it all the time! and very funny when he uses the puppets,I miss him and Geoffrey Peterson.
I'm watching this in 2020 from the UK and this late night show format is the best i've ever seen.Most of it unscripted and the guests on the show, in the majority, join in with the banter and nonsense.Superb to watch and very funny.
His line with Lisa Kudrow gets me every time. He could tell she was feeling a bit awkward and the interview wasn't going particularly well, but he says "So good news" and makes everyone laugh, including her. Great host.
The awesome thing about Craig was you could tell he really enjoyed his job. it sucks he left the show, but he was host for more than a decade. I wish him the best in his new show on the History Channel, and any other future endeavors.
Late show hosts tend to do it for more than 10 years... I don't know if it was his decision but it was a shitty one. Sorry it's the truth. There is a huge hole in our hearts now.
He was bored and tired of the work he was doing and it was totally his decision to quit. Not exactly bored but yeah he didn't wanted to do more of it if you know what I mean.
He talked about it in one of his memoirs - he was tired of it and battling to find the enthusiasm any more. There's *_SO_* much more to producing a show like this than meets the eye and it takes a toll.
*When grandma got off work, I would have dinner prepared for her. We would sit at the kitchen table and watch Craig. Then, we would watch Cheers and Golden Girls. Now she has late stage alzheimers... she can't even remember what a TV is, but I will always cherish every moment we spent together. I see her every day, and yet I miss her with all my heart.*
I used to watch the show on my DVR because I work for a living. I had so many of them saved that I was in danger of running out of room. I miss him so much. No other host comes close. Especially the guy who took over. If I were ever lucky enough to meet Mister Ferguson, I would tell him how much joy I got from that show. I knew every time I watched it, it was going to be comedy gold. Thanks Craig for all the laughs.
One of the funniest things Craig ever did on one of his shows (10:00 mark in this video) was stand next to Geoff and tell the audience he was thinking of turning the program in to a kid's show... and then did a hilarious creepy grin... It made this man cry from laughing! The man is a comedic GENIUS.
Totally agree. These were the moments that made me smile the most. And many times these episodes were the best antidepressants I could find in very bad times. :)
Had an emotional day today, but I have a playlist of Craig's stuff, so I've been watching and laughing and it has lifted my spirits. This is therapy. Laughter truly is the best medicine.
THANK YOU for being here on YT! I have switched permanently to FRESH MEADOWS, because of ALL your fine work, CRAIG & CO.:)) nothing comes close to this show...TROOOLY!!

Oh my gosh. That segment about the penny in the well has me ROLLING. I’ve spent the last 11 minutes cry laughing. “...D...down in the well??” I miss this so much.
The show wasn't taken off the air. Craig decided it was time to stop. In the about 10 years he did the show he did 5 days per week for 52 weeks and never took a day off. That's alot of shows.
Idk how many times ive watched this compilation. It makes me laugh every single time. This show was truly one of the greatest thing to ever happen to TV. Especially once Geoff became alive. Improv comedy heaven is what it is. The witty banter between them without being beige and full of themselves. Knowing where the line is, tip toeing on it and maybe even snort it.... the horse does that for sure. However, I do suggest watching the whole show. Believe me theres billions of sheer nonsense humor bits by these 2 and some guests. And you get the whole experience. The cold open, the monologue, tweets and email, guest intros and guest and the final 'what did we learn tonight Craig' ending bit. It's all available on UA-cam and just pick a random one so you can see it for yourself how insanely original and one of a kind it is. The worst episodes of this show is still infinitely better than today's PC corporate pandering woke soulless shows. And the best ones? Like with Robin Williams, Billy Connolly, Ricky Gervais etc, it's classic, gold and a gift to the world. 50 or even 500 years from now, it will still be funny and entertaining. I'd bet my life on that.
@@georgemarcouxjr6192 I dont think it ever will. This show was a rarity and so unique for so many reasons. It aged like fine wine, took years to get this crazy and "free range comedy" wise. 1. It was owned by David Letterman as CBS gave him the time slot during the Conan-Leno debacle when he renewed with them and Letterman, to his credit let Craig do his own thing as much as possible. No one other than Dave himself has the final say and he saw the genius Craig is. 2. Craig is done with it. He has consistently said that since he left Late Night. He did his 10 years and was done. Gotta respect him for that. He came, conquered and left like a boss. Didn't overstay and make a parody of himself or catch up with others. He was Punk Rock to the core. 3. The vomit inducing PC woke culture of today will cancel it in 1 week if it was aired today. Craig never played the pandering preachy ass kissing game. He made fun of left, right, up, down, you, me, himself and everything else in between. A true entertainer who used his wit to charm tf out of us all. He was a master at improv comedy as well and dark humor. Which is all not allowed today. Not on TV at least. Maybe a subscription thing or podcast could do it but I think he's done for it all. 4. Geoff Peterson. He's basically the wild card. Instead of being a "yes man", he was the double act. Josh Robert Thompson was given even more freedom by Craig and he bloody took it to 11 with sheer talent. That's just 4 big reasons why a revamped wouldn't work. It can happen only once.

Bring this show back!!! Craig is such a good talk show host, and geoff is the perfect co-host!
These are legendary. I've come to this video now and then over the years, since 2015. Cheers up a rainy nice very nicely. From Finland with love
Craig Ferguson is one of the only people that brings out my snort laugh.
I love how you can measure how funny the segment was by how high pitched Craig's voice and laugh were 😂
Oh man, I miss this show so much
God I miss this show. I haven't watched as much tv as I used to since it ended. Which is good. But I'm still sad it's done. :(
"Hand gesture" makes me laugh every time. Lisa Kudrow's "aaw" is perfect too
:)
Idk how many times ive watched this compilation. It makes me laugh every single time. This show was truly one of the greatest thing to ever happen to TV. Especially once Geoff became alive. Improv comedy heaven is what it is. The witty banter between them without being beige and full of themselves. Knowing where the line is, tip toeing on it and maybe even snort it.... the horse does that for sure.
However, I do suggest watching the whole show. Believe me theres billions of sheer nonsense humor bits by these 2 and some guests. And you get the whole experience. The cold open, the monologue, tweets and email, guest intros and guest and the final 'what did we learn tonight Craig' ending bit. It's all available on UA-cam and just pick a random one so you can see it for yourself how insanely original and one of a kind it is.
The worst episodes of this show is still infinitely better than today's PC corporate pandering woke soulless shows. And the best ones? Like with Robin Williams, Billy Connolly, Ricky Gervais etc, it's classic, gold and a gift to the world. 50 or even 500 years from now, it will still be funny and entertaining. I'd bet my life on that.
This has to come back! Best ever!

I dont think it ever will. This show was a rarity and so unique for so many reasons. It aged like fine wine, took years to get this crazy and "free range comedy" wise.
1. It was owned by David Letterman as CBS gave him the time slot during the Conan-Leno debacle when he renewed with them and Letterman, to his credit let Craig do his own thing as much as possible. No one other than Dave himself has the final say and he saw the genius Craig is.
2. Craig is done with it. He has consistently said that since he left Late Night. He did his 10 years and was done. Gotta respect him for that. He came, conquered and left like a boss. Didn't overstay and make a parody of himself or catch up with others. He was Punk Rock to the core.
3. The vomit inducing PC woke culture of today will cancel it in 1 week if it was aired today. Craig never played the pandering preachy ass kissing game. He made fun of left, right, up, down, you, me, himself and everything else in between. A true entertainer who used his wit to charm tf out of us all. He was a master at improv comedy as well and dark humor. Which is all not allowed today. Not on TV at least. Maybe a subscription thing or podcast could do it but I think he's done for it all.
4. Geoff Peterson. He's basically the wild card. Instead of being a "yes man", he was the double act. Josh Robert Thompson was given even more freedom by Craig and he bloody took it to 11 with sheer talent.
That's just 4 big reasons why a revamped wouldn't work. It can happen only once.
