Craig on Letterman WednesdayCraig Ferguson appears on Late Night with David Letterman on Wednesday night, promoting the upcoming Paris episodes of the Late Late Show and maybe Winnie The Pooh, which is about to enter its third weekend in wide release. We’ve seen nothing on Craig’s schedule for Thursday but on Friday, he’ll be on NBC’s Today Show and the syndicated talk show Live with Regis and Kelly before flying to Toronto for a live stand up show. Craig’s assistant Rebecca Tucker tweeted:
Opening in TorontoCraig’s usual opening act, Randy Kagan will be working at the Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal this week, so another new comedian, Mark Forward has been tapped to open for Craig in Toronto. He tweeted:
Opening for @craigyferg at Massey Hall on Friday. Very honored and excited. Cheers.
We have not yet heard if Mark, Randy or another comedian will be opening for Craig in Boston. The website TorontoLife.com briefly previews Craig’s upcoming stand up comedy show at Massey Hall.
Ex Post Facto
As usual, days or weeks behind on any news that doesn’t involved the word “scandal”, the New York Post finally got around to reporting on Craig’s taping pilot episodes of Celebrity Name Game for CBS. And as usual they got facts wrong, using the show’s original name from when it was in development, Identity Crisis. Indiewire.com mentioned the Post story as well.
Dalek Dress
The RSA’s @NLiuOfMyself attended a taping of the LLS this week to see Doctor Who actor Matt Smith. Instead of wearing a Dalek costume (which might not have been allowed in the studio) she had a homemade Dalek-style dress. Looking sharp!
