Craig & Company Take A BreakOver the past month or so, the Late Late Show has been quietly doing double tapings at CBS Television City and putting several new shows “in the can,” as they say; in other words, saving shows for later broadcast. With the NCAA Mens Basketball Tournament getting under way, “later” is now. Through the magic of television, we’ll see a half-dozen new episodes during the next two weeks that were pre-taped earlier in February and March (shh! We’re live!). That will give Craig Ferguson and the LLS team a two-week break before tapings resume in the final week of March. A break for the hard-working crew at the show plus new episodes for the fans? That is a great deal for everybody!
GCB’s on ABC
Upcoming LLS guest Leslie Bibb stars in the new ABC show GCB, which is stirring up attention in only its second week on the air. The Hollywood Reporter talked with Bibb just before last week’s series premiere.
Milch Stays On Track
Writer/producer David Milch will be on the Late Late Show on Monday, talking about his HBO series Luck. Before the series began, Milch sat down for an interview with the National Public Radio program Fresh Air, to talk about how his life’s path led him to create the new show.
Craig Gets Soaped Up

Jennette Mccurdy
The week begins with three all-new episodes of the Late Late Show, including Monday when Craig visitis with actress Leslie Bibb and writer/producer David Milch. On Tuesday, Craig welcomes actor Jason Segel and actress Jennette McCurdy. And on Wednesday, enjoy TV personality Regis Philbin. The re-run fairy visits on Thursday and Friday, which the show will likely be delayed at least an hour due to coverage of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament on CBS. Thursday, watch for the November 10th, 2011 episode featuring actress Molly Shannon and actor Michael K. Williams. Then on Friday, it’s a rebroadcast of the November 14th, 2011 show with actress Poppy Montgomery and author/comedian Charlie Higson.
