UPDATE:The DreamWorks film How To Train Your Dragon 2, featuring the voice of Craig Ferguson, has won a Golden Globe Award for Best Animated Feature. Variety has a full list of winners.

UPDATE:After years of being prevented by his CBS contract, Craig has now opened his own website, with information about his tour and merchandise. When he first announced the site on his Twitter feed on Monday night, the site suffered some down time. But it’s a good sign to see that it’s popular, and when it comes to having a site swamped with hits after an announcement, we know the feeling. It should be running more smoothly soon.

One Door Closes, Another Opens
With television syndication executives holding meetings this month to court advertisers and make decisions about the fall schedule, announcements were expected about a couple of Craig Ferguson‘s irons in the fire, and both came on the same day.

First the bad news: A rumored possibility of a half-hour syndicated talk show hosted by Craig in the early evening hours appears to be over for now. The Hollywood trade publication Variety reports media company Tribune Broadcasting and distributor Debmar-Mercury were unable to convince enough television stations around the country to run the show. Tribune’s last attempt at a syndicated talk show hosted by Arsenio Hall lasted a single season before being canceled.

And now the good news: Craig’s game show Celebrity Name Game, which has been performing well with female audiences across the country, has been renewed for a second season, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Taping of the game show is currently on hiatus, but recording is expected to resume this spring at Sunset-Bronson studios in Los Angeles, following Craig’s extended live comedy tour around the U.S. and Canada in February and March.
