Gearing Up For Florida
Craig Ferguson is getting ready for a weekend of stand up comedy on the road in Florida and the Sunshine State is getting ready for him, including the Tallahassee Democrat newspaper, the Sun Sentinel and the Miami Herald, which misspells the name of his autobiography but does a nice interview nonetheless.  Craig will be on stage in Tallahassee, Ft. Myers and Hollywood, Florida (just north of Miami) over the weekend, starting with homecoming festivities at Florida State on Friday night.  Tickets are still available for each show although we are told that all three shows are getting close to being sold out.  We have links to all of the venues, times and tickets on our Live Comedy Tour page.  These are likely Craig’s last live shows for 2011.  If we hear of any new dates for 2011 or the start of 2012, we’ll pass them along.

Rabbits and Flowers
AOL’s TV replay takes a moment to show Craig, trying to get Alex Kingston to be naughty.  Meanwhile, Neil Gaimanenjoyed Alex’s compliment to him and tweeted:

Just watched tonight’s @CraigyFerg. Alex Kingston says she fancies me. This is not a #humblebrag. This is a full-tilt, glorious, YES! #brag.

From the ‘They Clearly Don’t Get It’ Files

The Scottish version of the Sun tabloid seemed mystified by Ewan McGregor and Craig messing around with the censors.  We’re pretty sure the studio audience was delighted.  Meanwhile, the Insider.com has been more like the outsider, and are just now figuring out that there have been guest voices for Geoff Peterson for nearly two weeks.

Sending Off Regis in Style
Few people have as much fun with Regis Philbin as David Letterman, so don’t miss Thursday’s Late Show when Dave gives his pal Regis best wishes on wrapping up his longtime stint on “Live” Friday morning in New York.  Regis will be a guest on the Late Late Show in early December as well.

Training Your Dragon
Craig (as Gobber the Belch) reminds us that it takes some time to learn how to train dragons, in this great clip from Book of Dragons, the new DVD/Blu-ray offering from Dreamworks for the holidays.

Tonight’s Guests

Thursday on the Late Late Show, Craig welcomes the force that is actor/comedian Robin Williams and we’ll hear the music of Black Dub, while Geoff is voiced by actor Jason Schwartzman.  Then on Friday, LLS announcer Shadoe Stevens takes Geoff’s controls while Craig chats with actor/comedian Don Rickles and actress Beth Behrs.
