When I went to visit Scott’s family in Minnesota I had a chance to see the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. I haven’t laughed that hard in a very long time. I used to watch The Tonight Show back when Johnny Carson was on the program and Jay Leno was just the vacation second-banana. Now the late night shows are all a flutter because NBC is thinking about changing time-slots.

I’ve given up on a lot of shows in my life. Shows that aren’t whatever they are desperately trying to be. In this case, funny. Saturday Night Live was the first I think to fall, they simply stopped being funny and just when with hacks trying to be amusing I was bored and stopped watching.

Now that I don’t watch classic television anymore, I only watch what my DVR records and play it back at my liesure I miss out on the usual programs that channels toss up from time to time, like the evening news. I haven’t seriously watched morning or evening news or news programs in years. The DVR lets me watch whatever I want on TV, fast forward through the commercials, and throw away whatever I don’t want anymore.

I am happy though, that I’ve missed out on the amusing’ness of much of what I’m not recording and that I’ve found a uniquely hilarious comic. So far I’ve nearly fallen out of my seat each time I see one of his shows and he’s got a series record order outstanding on my DVR. If you are looking for good TV, I recommend this show, he’s HILARIOUS!
