Mug Part Deux When it comes to snake mugs, our fearless leader Craig Ferguson has more than one snake up his sleeve. As we reported earlier, Craig’s snake mug from the Albuquerque Rattlesnake Museum was accidentally broken on Wednesday night’s show. But it appears they had at least one identical “stunt mug” in storage to take its place. And there may be even more. At one point, one of the mugs had a broken fang, and rather than having a gold fang glued on, it may have been replaced with a different mug altogether. Some mugs have the “censored” sign on the bottom and some don’t. We aren’t sure how many of the original-style mugs remain, or if the one that was broken was the “original,” but just as the fireplace on the set gets magically repaired every time Craig throws a log through it, snake mugs can apparently appear and vanish at will. The Late Late Show props team is ready for anything! Gift Keeps On Giving When Jay Leno officially retired from The Tonight Show on Thursday, Craig sent him an appropriate going-away present. As E! Online reports, Craig gave the one thing a car lover like Leno would truly appreciate: A car! Specifically, it was the old Ford Bronco Craig bought from Danny Bonaduce several years ago.
Reinventing Late Night The website Bustle.com has a thoughtful article offering Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyer some advice as they take over their new shows later this month: Follow Craig Ferguson’s example. We couldn’t agree more. American Cars In this monologue from 2005, Craig talks about driving and American cars, including his Bronco. Video courtesy: craigfergusonmaniac
