This Week’s Guests

Shohreh Aghdashloo

While nearly all of the other major late-night talk shows will be in re-runs this week, the Late Late Show is on a roll with five more all-new episodes, beginning Monday when Craig talks with actor Benjamin McKenzie and actress Shohreh Aghdashloo.  On Tuesday, Craig has fun with actor DJ Qualls and chef Wolfgang Puck.  Wednesday, the lone guest on the schedule is comedian and TV host Howie Mandel.  Actress Carrie Fisher returns to the show on Thursday, along with actor Tony Hale.  And on Friday, Craig welcomes actor Jeff Garlin and actress Sonya Walger.  The re-run fairy returns for the first full week of June.  See the complete listings on our Guests page.

To our American readers, we hope you have a good Memorial Day holiday, remembering those who gave their lives in war and enjoying the unofficial start of summer.
