Craig Ferguson (born 17 May 1962) is a Scottish born American naturalised comedian, actor, writer and television host. He is best known for hosting the CBS late-night talk show The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (2005–14), for which he won a Peabody Award in 2009 for his interview with South African archbishop Desmond Tutu that year. He also hosted the syndicated game show Celebrity Name Game (2014–17), for which he won two Daytime Emmy Awards, and Join or Die with Craig Ferguson (2016) on History.[2] In 2017 he released a six-episode web show with his wife, Megan Wallace Cunningham, titled Couple Thinkers.[3][4]

After starting his career in the UK with music, comedy, and theatre, Ferguson moved to the U.S., where he appeared in the role of Nigel Wick on the ABC sitcom The Drew Carey Show (1996–2004). Ferguson has written three books: Between the Bridge and the River, a novel; American on Purpose, a memoir; and Riding the Elephant: A Memoir of Altercations, Humiliations, Hallucinations & Observations. He holds both British and American citizenship.

He has written and starred in three films, directing one of them, and has appeared in several others, including several voice-over roles for animations. He provided voice work for Gobber in the How to Train Your Dragon film series (2010–2019), Owl in Winnie the Pooh (2011) and Lord Macintosh in Brave (2012).

In December 2004, it was announced that Ferguson would succeed Craig Kilborn on CBS’s The Late Late Show. His first show as the regular host aired on 3 January 2005. The show was unique in that it had no “human” sidekicks such as Ed McMahon on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson or Conan O’Brien’s Andy Richter. He had a remotely operated robot skeleton named Geoff Peterson and two silent performers in a pantomime horse costume that were added in 2010. His monologues were conducted within a few feet of the camera versus the long distance Johnny Carson kept from the camera and audience.[47]

The Late Late Show averaged 2.0 million viewers in its 2007 season, compared with 2.5 million for Late Night with Conan O’Brien.[48] In April 2008, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson beat Late Night with Conan O’Brien for weekly ratings (1.88 million to 1.77 million) for the first time since the two shows went head-to-head with their respective hosts.[49]

In March 2009, Craig Ferguson topped Jimmy Fallon in the ratings with Ferguson getting a 1.8 rating/6 share and Fallon receiving a 1.6 rating/6 share.[jargon][50] By 2014, Ferguson’s ratings had faltered, trailing those of Late Night with Seth Meyers with an average of 1.35 million viewers versus 2.02 million.[51]

On 28 April 2014, Ferguson announced he would leae The Late Late Show at the end of 2014,[52] with the final episode airing on 19 December.[53] His contract was set to expire in June 2014, but a six-month extension was agreed on to provide a more graceful exit and give CBS more time to find a replacement host.[54][55] He reportedly received US$5 million as part of his contract because he was not selected as the replacement for David Letterman’s Late Show.[56] Ferguson made the decision prior to Letterman’s announcement but agreed to delay making his own decision public until the reaction to Letterman’s decision had died down.[55] CBS Entertainment Chair Nina Tassler said, following the announcement, that in his decade as host Ferguson had “infused the broadcast with tremendous energy, unique comedy, insightful interviews and some of the most heartfelt monologues seen on television.”[57] CBS continued the franchise with James Corden as the new host
