Tour Wraps Up
Craig Ferguson‘s Hot and Grumpy Tour: Walking the Earth came to an end over the weekend, as Craig finished up the gigs he had to reschedule earlier in the year to film a TV pilot in April. Our fearless leader took the stage in Iowa City, Indianapolis (where he did a good radio interview) and Nashville, and then headed into Ontario for shows in Rama and Windsor.

Craig will take a break from touring for a while, before returning to the stage in September and October. On the calendar so far are shows in Philadelphia (rescheduled from March) and Toronto, where he’ll headline at the Just For Laughs festival. You can see the most current listings on our Live Comedy Tour page. He still has about half a season of Celebrity Name Game to record in Los Angeles, and will be working on other projects in the meantime. By the way, if you don’t have Celebrity Name Game on a local TV station near you (or just can’t get enough Craig), check out Pop TV (which used to be called the TV Guide Channel) on your cable or satellite. They run an episode of the show every weeknight at 6pm ET/PT, and two episodes every Saturday at 11:30am and 12:00pm ET/PT.

Josh’s Show
Josh Robert Thompson continues to edit and pitch his variety show The Josh Robert Thompson Show and recently tweeted a composite photo to show what he’s been working on. We’ll keep you posted as the project develops.

Doc Martin Travels Stateside
The British TV series Doc Martin, the title character of which was based upon a character Craig created for his movie Saving Grace, will now have an American version. As DigitalSpy.com reports, Friends co-creator Marta Kaufman is developing a new spin on the series for American audiences. Thanks to the RSA’s @bgrhubarb for spotting it.

Late-Night Life
James Corden recently talked with New York Magazine about why being a late-night talk show host is changing and how he’s been doing so far.

Scottish Word
As the crew gears up to start promoting the second season of Celebrity Name Game, they have posted some outtakes from the show where Craig got caught on camera being his swear-y self. There are no flags or “Tutsi Fruitsis” here, just your average, run-of-the-mill bleeps:
