    Ferguson seems as if he's off his meds. But I have a feeling there's a method to his madness.

    The bitch in me wants O'Brien to win this, but I can't see anybody snagging it from Colbert given the Iraq stuff he did this year.

    The writing nod, I can see Conan taking.

    Colbert in Iraq was incredibly strong - the gays in the military thing? - Obama ordering Colbert to get his hair cut? Brilliant stuff.
    I don't know how Jon Stewart picks which episode to run, and I'm curious to find out which episode they submitted. The Jim Cramer thing was submitted last year - right?

    Count me among the lovers of Ferguson. I started watching his show after Conan went to "Tonight" and wished I'd started sooner. His book was great, too.

    Kimmel's show is actually gaining viewers, too.

    ABC has got to be the smartest of the networks at the late night game. Nightline and Kimmel destroys any of the other combinations and probably costs a fifth of what Letterman-Ferguson or Leno-Fallon do.

    It basically says the demographic of posters here is unlikely to watch the "traditional" shows. That's about all it says.

    Thanks for the heads up. Just found the Craig Ferguson - Stephen Fry show on You Tube. Great stuff!

    Oh yeah. Though they had me from "go" when they said it was going to be with Fry. I'm a longtime fan of his, too — from back when he and Hugh Laurie were a team. That was a great hour, tho.

    I'm with you on Fry. Used to get "A Bit of Fry and Laurie" on the CBC and, of course, "Jeeves and Wooster" on PBS. Can't get enough of either of them.
