UPDATE:  Craig has added a new show, at the Council Rock Auditorium at South High School in Holland/Richboro, PA (north of Philadelphia) on Saturday, October 22nd at 8:00pm. Tickets go on sale Monday at 10:00 ET.  Thanks to the ever-vigilant @bgrhubarb for spotting the new show!  We’ve add the details and a link on our Live Comedy Tour page.

Guests Untangled
This week’s guest lineup was bumpy after Monday’s tennis overrun but nearly everyone has found a new spot.  As you’ll see on our Guests page, James Woods is Friday’s lone guest.  Kathryn Hahn has been moved to next week and Chris Young to the following week.  Some new guests have been added, as we describe below.  Only tonight’s original guests, Kunal Nayyar and Anthony Head have not yet been rescheduled but we’ll let you know when they return.

Craig Critiques
Craig was in a literary mood Thursday night, tweeting a pair of comments:

Eat Pray Love on TV. Smug pseudo intellectual crypto-racist shite. #narcissisticpersonalitydisorder #pastalookedtastythough. // Reading Cleopatra by Stacy Schiff. Fascinating story of a fascinating woman written by a great writer who is a woman. #takethateatpraylove

And Schiff replied:

@CraigyFerg So thrilled you like #Cleopatra. She makes smarts sexy, the way they were back in 3rd grade. #takethateateatpraylove

Craig on Arthur’s Show
A date has been finalized for Craig Ferguson‘s appearance on Jacques “Arthur” Essbag‘s talk show.  The show’s season premiere on France’s Comedie! channel will be October 10th.  Also on the show will be hip hop/rap artist MC Solar, French soccer star Zinedine Zidane, comedian Eddie Izzard and YouTube lip-syncing sensation Keenan Cahill.  If you haven’t already seen the preview clip which Craig played on his own show a while back, it’s available on the lefigaro.fr website… and/or you can read the brief article in English.  Thanks to the RSA’s @pinkbirdie48840 for finding the link. And thanks to Audrey for finding a link to another French post at Over-Blog.com with a great still photo of Craig on set!

Australian Talk Show

There’s another late night talk show now being taped each week at CBS Television City but you’ll have to live in Australia to see it.  The Australian version of Yahoo has the story about host Rove McManus‘ new weekly show for Australia’s Fox8.
