Stephen Fry and Craig Ferguson Love America (VIDEO)
Craig Ferguson has a thing for America. As a new citizen, his love of the country runs deep, but he's not alone when British patriot Stephen Fry is around. During an experimental audience-free version of 'Late Late show with Craig Ferguson' (weeknights, 12:35 AM ET on CBS) that was just Fry and Ferguson chatting like old friends, resident alien Fry said, "I absolutely adore this country. Like you, I feel like I can live here for the rest of my life." Now all Fry needs to do is get a tattoo as sweet as Ferguson's Benjamin Franklin inspired one.Watch the video after the jump.
Parker Posey Tells Craig Ferguson About a Sexy Dream (VIDEO)
On 'The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson' (weeknights, 12:37AM ET on CBS), Parker Posey told a story about a dream she had with a counting sheep. The sheep was counting, not her.Ok, the story was totally lame, except for the part where Craig Ferguson called it sexy. "If you're Scottish, it's a sexy dream." We swear, Ferguson is always much more entertaining than his guests.

Jennifer Tilly Tries to Keep Her Man Happy (VIDEO)
Jennifer Tilly lives in her own little world, doesn't she? On 'The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson' (weeknights, 12:37AM ET on CBS), she dished on doing fun things to keep her boyfriend happy, like having sex with him in her trailer while still in a blonde wig.He loved it, because he felt like he was cheating on her. Only then she found he really was cheating on her.
We're just going to throw this out there -- maybe it had something to do with that pink feathery thing.

Jerry Springer Gives Craig Ferguson a Pep Talk (VIDEO)
Jerry Springer gave Craig Ferguson a little pep talk when it comes to talk show audiences. "You think your audiences are rough?" said Springer. "Have you ever had a tooth punched out by a skinhead? Have you ever had a high-class call girl reveal that she's not really high class and, in fact, she's really a dude?"Yeah, that's a tough crowd, for sure. But Ferguson, host of 'The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson' (weeknights, 12:35AM ET on CBS), said that old trick of picturing the audience naked won't work for him. "My audiences are mostly drunk vagrants with nowhere else to go."
Almost makes it sound like getting $40 million to leave your talk show is a pretty good deal.

Colin Firth and Craig Ferguson Talk Pornography (VIDEO)
When Colin Firth and Craig Ferguson get together, the conversation naturally turns to pornography. Do they watch it? They both decide that if it's on the British airwaves, it must be alright. And Ferguson says he'd rather be in it than "sadly weeping in the hotel room."Pornography aside, we just think it'd be a blast to be in any room with these two. Since that's probably not going to happen anytime soon, we'll have to amuse ourselves by watching 'The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson' (weeknights, 12:35AM ET on CBS).

Carrie Fisher Talks Sperm, Breast Reductions, Ball Sacks on 'Craig Ferguson' (VIDEO)
Sperm, breast reductions, ball sacks ... apparently, nothing is off limits when Carrie Fisher shows up on 'The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson' (weeknights, 12:35AM ET on CBS).But we're guessing most guys would probably agree with Ferguson, who says, "Every time a woman gets a breast reduction, an angel loses its wings."

Pierce Brosnan Discusses Roman Polanski on 'Ferguson' (VIDEO)
On 'The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson' (weeknights, 12:35AM ET on CBS), Pierce Brosnan stopped by to discuss his upcoming thriller 'The Ghost Writer.' But, things took a decidedly awkward turn when Brosnan mentioned the film's director is none other than Roman Polanski, who was convicted of rape in 1977 and arrested by Swiss police last year because of his outstanding U.S. warrant.

Rosie O'Donnell Blames Jay Leno, Loves Howard Stern (VIDEO)
Rosie O'Donnell dropped by 'The Late Late Show' (weeknights, 12:35AM ET on CBS) and discussed NBC's late-night shakeup, as well as her relationship with shock jock Howard Stern, with whom she's had a long-running feud dating back a decade."I just felt it was a crappy thing to do," O'Donnell said of Jay Leno's role in NBC's after-hours programming debacle. "Conan had been working 17 years for that company, and then Jay was told five years ago that it was his turn to give up the driver's seat. That is not his bus. That's a 60-year bus that's been driving around the country ... and ... when they say, 'Hey, you're done,' you give the keys back and you say, 'Thank you.' You don't flatten the tires of the guy who comes next."

The Late Night Wars: Winners and Losers
Now that the battle over 'The Tonight Show' is officially over, with Jay Leno taking back his old job and Conan O'Brien all but out the door with an eight-figure severance check, it's time to sift through the rubble to see who's come out on top. Surprisingly, the debacle has turned out to be a win for almost everyone involved, with three glaring exceptions.NBC isn't even safe from Kenneth the Page

Since I am not directly involved in the Late Night Wars of '10, I find them incredibly amusing. Letterman is working out all of his latent Leno rage on air, Craig Ferguson is burning any bridges to NBC, Jimmy Kimmel is doing some sort of kinky role-playing, and Conan is just basically giving the middle finger to everyone, every single night now. Late night hasn't been this interesting since Conan O'Brien, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert all just kicked each other's asses on the air-- and that was only one night!
Now, even Kenneth the Page (Jack McBrayer) is getting into the fray. He made an appearance last night on The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien, during Conan's monologue. He was there to give a studio tour, as pages are wont to do, and he was showing the tourists the former home of The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien. Or, as he corrected himself, "the soon-to-be former home."
What Does the Jay Leno Shake-Up Mean for David Letterman?
David Letterman was in rare form last night, firing off merciless fusillades of jokes about the late-night woes of his former network NBC and his longtime rival Jay Leno. But Leno could have the last laugh if NBC gets to remake its late-night schedule the way it wants to. And Letterman could be the one who suffers the most from the new arrangement.Letterman is currently riding high in the late-night ratings wars, easily beating new timeslot rival Conan O'Brien. That could change, however, if, as NBC hopes, Leno takes the half-hour from 11:35PM to 12:05AM, followed by O'Brien's 'Tonight Show' and then, at 1:05AM, 'Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.'
Craig Ferguson weighs in on the Conan/Leno debacle

We heard a lot yesterday about NBC's crazy attempt to save their sinking ship by moving around their late night shows. The whole situation is very confusing, and at the end of it NBC will probably end up with some sort of all-singing, all-dancing six-hour block of Leno, Conan, Fallon, Dateline and Law & Order. Everyone will continue to forget that Carson Daly is on the network.
With all of the talk coming out of NBC, I was kind of curious to see what the late night competitors had to say about the whole matter. Luckily, Craig Ferguson took some time to poke fun at the chaos and, more importantly, relate it to his show, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson.

Dame Judi Dench on Sex, Drugs and Sean Connery (VIDEO)
Dame Judi Dench, on a promotional tour for her upcoming movie 'Nine,' stopped by 'The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson' and proved more than a good sport when Ferguson asked her about supposed affairs, drug use and the sexiness of Sean Connery. (After all, she's not just a dame, she's a lady.)Dench denied an affair with actor/comedian Billy Connolly, with whom she appeared in 'Mrs. Brown,' drug use during the indulgent 1970s while she was a stage actress, and a fling with Sean Connery, who Ferguson described as a "sexual creature."
