Two Weeks Away
Craig Ferguson goes back on the road in two weeks, beginning Thursday, April 19th in in Tucson, Arizona.  Tickets remain available for all of Craig’s April live shows, with the exception of Snoqualmie, Washington, which is sold out. We’re told that there are a limited number of tickets left for Craig’s shows in Napa, CA and Medford, OR, so book early to avoid disappointment! For a complete listing of all of Craig’s live stand up comedy shows, check out our Live Comedy Tour page.

Jeffery Who?
The Huffington Post enjoyed Jeffrey Tambor‘s conversation with Craig about being mistaken for other celebrities.

Myths on the Road
On the website TVWorthWatching.com, a writer had a chance to see the Mythbuster‘s “Behind the Myths” road show in Toronto, which is one of many stops on their tour of North America.

Another Look At Studio 56

Last time, to give you an idea of what Studio 56 at CBS Television City looks like in action, we showed you a clip from the Dennis Miller Show from the mid 90s. Here, thanks to the RSA’s sharp-eyed RS, is a much more recent clip.  The one is from the LA-based Australian talk show Rove LA, with host Rove McManus.

In the clip, McManus is giving his guests a chance to play a version of The Price Is Right. You can get a good sense of how the audience area looks in relation to the stage. And they even jump on a golf cart and drive down the long corridor between Studio 56 and Studio 58, where you can see the Late Late Show signs on the walls. “But wait,” we hear you ask. “How could they drive a golf cart from Studio 56 on the second floor to The Price Is Right‘s Studio 33 on the first floor? The answer is, “The magic of television.” You’ll notice that there is a convenient edit in the middle of the clip (actually a couple of them), to transport the cart from one floor to the other to save time.

Tonight’s Guests
Thursday on the Late Late Show, Craig talks with actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan and we’ll see a performance by comedian Bryan Miller.  The previously scheduled Jennifer Coolidge will return on a  future date.  Friday, Craig’s guests are actress Laura Linney and Mythbuster Grant Imahara, who will be on the show to celebrate the 2nd anniversary of his creation Geoff Peterson, who made his debut appearance on April 5th, 2010.  The Mythbusters tweeted:
