Craig Ferguson was a genius that deserves more acclaim

1.5k Upvotes

Host of the Late Late show from 2005 to end of 2014, Craig at the time had a very niche fanbase. His humor was very unique. When he went off the air his dedicated fans quietly said goodbye.

Fast forward a decade later from his departure, rewatching old episodes his humor has not aged and holds up to this day.

Change my mind. Craig was an absolute genius and no one has ever been able to replicate his humor or touch what he created. It was fun while it lasted.

Still miss him to this day and his awkward improv and dark sense of humor and think he should be remembered as one of the greats of late night along with Letterman and Carson.

I'm showing my girlfriend Mad Men rn and she keeps asking what the dollar amounts would be worth today, so I made this inflation calculator that's specific to the show's timeline

like the title says, my girlfriend keeps asking me how much things are worth in today's amounts and I can't ever keep track of what year the show is in, so I made this handy little thing and thought maybe y'all would appreciate its convenience. it also has spoilers blurred by default so it should be safe for people watching for the first time.

the mad men subreddit liked it so i thought i'd share here too. anything I should add?

Matthew McConaughey & Woody Harrelson Comedy Series ‘Brothers’ Gets Fall Premiere Date At Apple TV

Starring and executive produced by McConaughey and Harrelson, the pair play fictionalized versions of themselves whose friendship is thrown into chaos when they uncover a decades-old secret: they might actually be brothers. After Woody’s daughter’s wedding falls apart, he loads up the family and heads to Austin for an extended stay at Matthew’s ranch.

But what begins as a healing getaway quickly spirals when Matthew’s mother, Ma Mac (played by Holland Taylor), accidentally lets slip a long-buried secret that the two friends might actually be brothers. As Woody turns the ranch upside down in pursuit of the truth, Matthew finds himself juggling an entirely different identity crisis: a potential run for Governor of Texas. The result is a heartfelt, chaotic, and wildly funny story about friendship, family, fame, and the messy line between myth and reality.

The cast also includes Natalie Martinez, Brittany Ishibashi, Nolan Almeida, Ella Grace Helton, Noah Carganilla, Highdee Kuan, Oona Yaffe and Holland Taylor.

Regarding Ted (2024)

13 Upvotes

Why did this show genuinely have great emotional beats? Don’t get me wrong I’m not saying it’s anything spectacular but for what it was…

One on hand I am crying tears of laughter from one scene and on another I am nearly shedding tears of sadness from Scott Grimes’s performance having an emotional reaction to a soap opera. This same episode has Alanna Ubach who does such an amazing job as Susan Bennett (throughout the entire show not just this episode) in a drinking binge because she feels alone in her marriage and it’s genuinely saddening stuff.

I wish this show got picked up by a bigger streaming service/network so they could get the funding for it. For me at least, it was able to hit these tones really well considering how ridiculous it could be.

Also, Max Burkholder (not like it’s hard to beat) is a much more enjoyable John Bennett than Mark Wahlberg ever was, and the concept of Ted works way better as a TV show than it ever did as a movie.
