Craig Ferguson On....

Psykoboy2 · 10-01-2008, 12:58 AM

Okay so I watch this guy pretty religiously and I figured I would start posting videos here that might, at some times, pertain to us. He's done it before, I know.

So, here's the first Craig Ferguson On....Mac Vs. PC:

Starts at about 3:15 in. And he's talking about the ad campaign.

So on the money. Glad to hear someone with a well heard voice saying it.

Every time I see one of those ads I don't want to buy something, rather I want more than anything to stab Justin Long to death with a rusty spoon then remove one of his legs and use it bludgeon Steve Jobs to death with it.

I wish I could tell that to a focus group.

Are you sure fits isn't sidelining as this guy? All scots sound the same :P

Psykoboy2 · 10-07-2008, 10:43 PM

Sarah Palin & mudslinging....lot of good lines in this one.

Sandman · 10-07-2008, 10:45 PM

I remember him from the Drew Carey Show.....don't get to see his late night show much though.

Psykoboy2 · 10-07-2008, 10:48 PM

Well, then I hope you enjoy these clips.

Zabyx · 10-07-2008, 10:48 PM

The problem with those commercials is that I would rather buy something that John Hodgeman represents than something Justin Long represents. Obviously, this was not their intention.

Also, funny vid.

Psykoboy2 · 10-10-2008, 12:32 AM

Poland in the 80s.

Funny? Some of it.

Informative? Immensely so.

Psykoboy2 · 10-23-2008, 02:28 PM

...John McCain

There's a clip from a McCain rally about 3 minutes in and damn...he is Bush Part 2!

PathMaster · 10-23-2008, 02:57 PM

Good idea for a thread.

Squidbot · 10-23-2008, 04:06 PM

Man, I still can't get over him being so big in America. I remember him when he was a small stage act in the U.K.

Johan · 10-23-2008, 04:07 PM

I actually think this guy is the best of late-night broadcast television. He's quite witty, and his material is genuinely improvisational and funny. I just enjoy his show a ton.

digitalErich · 10-23-2008, 04:11 PM

I've always thought those Mac vs PCs were deliciously ironic. Sure, on the surface they were poking fun at the PC (and doing a good job) but the Mac personification is almost as big of a condemnation of the Mac-hipster crowd, if unintentionally.

I knew there had to be a reason I liked you so much, Johan.

Heh! I'm a fan of Craig as well. I like his irreverence.

As Lo Pan would say, "Indeed!"

After that, I guess Leno is the only other one I can watch, thanks mostly to Monday night's headlines. (I used to like Kimmel, but he lost his sharpness after the first couple of seasons.)

I absolutely cannot stand Letterman or O'Brien.

I agree on both. I used to love Letterman (we're talking a decade ago), but when I watch him, his humor isn't funny to me. He seems to be about the cheap political points, rather than the funny. Leno, when he cracks a political joke, gives off a distinct vibe that he's not coming at it with an agenda. Letterman is all about his agenda, and it bleeds into and through his bit.

O'Brien has just become a swollen head, in my opinion. I don't find him amusing.

Dorkandproudofit · 10-23-2008, 08:33 PM

I can't stand Ferguson. His show makes Conan O'Brian look hilarious.
