A Taping of the LLS
The RSA’s @canyongal78 had a chance to attend a taping of the Late Late Show last week. She sent us her story:

[stextbox id=”custom”]One Fangirl’s Story

On May 16, I was able to experience an amazing event in my life: I was an audience member at The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson.

The whole day leading up to the taping was somewhat surreal for this fangirl, and I had a lovely time driving around Hollywood and exploring some places viewers of The Late Late Show would recognize. I started my morning by driving through beautiful Griffith Park to walk around the Griffith Observatory, which is seen in the opening credits of the show.

I drove into Hollywood to acquaint myself with where CBS Studios are located. I parked at The Grove and walked past the dancing fountain, another image in the beginning credits where we see Craig soaking wet and singing. Just seeing the iconic CBS Television City building sent excited chills down my spine!

I managed to make it back to my hotel to make myself look presentable and drove to the taping later that day. The people waiting in line with me were super friendly, as were the staffers for 1iota [the company responsible for coordinating audiences for taping] and The Late Late Show.

We were ushered into the studio, where we were given candy and listened to the charming, perverted Chunky B, the warm-up comedian who yells “GIVE ME THUNDER!!!” Before I knew what was happening, it was show time.

Craig came out and was as charming, hysterically funny and good-looking as he is on tv (more so, if I may say!). We laughed and clapped until it physically hurt. I don’t know that I have ever laughed that much in my life!

Josh Robert Thompson, who is the voice of Geoff Peterson, was on fire as Craig’s side-kick. Between the monologue, the interactions between Craig and Geoff, and the guest interviews, I experienced the greatest television entertainment ever.

That day is one that I will remember and treasure forever, and I cannot wait to go back to a taping of The Late Late Show![/stextbox]

If you see a taping of the show or have a chance to see Craig perform live, we want to hear your story. Just use our Contact Us form to tell us about your experience and we’d be happy to share it with the rest of the Robot Skeleton Army.
