He said he did everything he wanted to do with the format, why bother dealing with suits again? Also: Betty White used to drop by just to do bits with him - no one could replace her.
I haven't listened to his podcast, but like... why would he? He did it for decades, and is the GOAT. Pretty much universally respected as the master of the craft and one of the most trustworthy people in the media. Everything else gets compared to what he did... And there's at least half a dozen moderately successful shows that spawned off from his formet staffers imitating the format. There'd be no way to improve on that by getting back to it, so you could only lose.
I don't think it's as much about lower effort. Usually these smaller operations mean more work for the team, but less studio oversight would allow him more freedom in his work.
I hoped she’d get to do interviews though too, maybe one game show segment per episode. They made such a big deal about her being a late night host but she’s not hosting. I mean if it’s doing great good for her hope it does, just bummed was hoping for more.
I've watched the clips on Youtube, which is a bit frustrating because they basically upload the whole episode, but split across like 6 clips, so it's hard to watch in sequence and such. I do like Taylor Tomlinson, and the show is light, distracting fun.

Maybe after the election’s over. “It’s a great day for America!” doesn’t ring as true today as it did in 2014.
ScottHitz
Best late night program ever. Ever notice that his shows aren’t scripted? He’s the only one with enough talent to pull it off.
bedframe
Iirc correctly there was talk once about him doing a half hour show that was just the dicking around with Geoff part of the show.
wkearney99
If there's someone that'd get me to pay for a streaming service it'd be Ferguson back doing his late night show.
Baggsy13
The latter I would watch.

Fuck it, let's get Craig Ferguson back on "Red Dwarf."

Man I miss his stuff. I know he’s done other things but his show was a highlight of the day for us for a long time.
CrossedKeys
I watched SO MUCH of him on my last deployment! Man’s a treasure!
TheGiantIdiotTeddyBear
FUCKING EH!

His Tickle fight special has mean in tears several times.

Let's have Craig Ferguson host "The Daily Show"

I am old enough and Scottish enough to remember when Craiig Ferguson was Bing Hitler
rbudrick
Bing is Bing Hitler tho. /s
rbudrick
Craig was stupidly funny the few times I caught his show. Just off the walls.
Timiny
agreed..

Eventually in the convo it just ends with balls. Or mouth organ.

Big cash prize, mouth organ, or awkward pause?

I personally think it was Craig Kilborn's time to shine.
ThisGuyPostingThings
Will he finally be funny this time?
skylark28
Craig: "If you don't vote, you're a moron." Loved that quote.

Careful Icarus.

As long as Geoff Peterson returns with him...

Deal breaker without him

He sure does.

he's my fav late night host and jon is basically my fav political pundit/all around good guy on tv. they'd do so good fighting crime or smth

I'd start a tickle fight with him, see where it goes...
mintyfreshismygod
He doesn't want to - he says that often on his podcast, Joy. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/joy-a-podcast-hosted-by-craig-ferguson/id1699118571
crthaze
Make him a recurring contestant on After Midnight :)
crystalistwo
Or another show that is funny.
crthaze
It's so cool, brave, and sexy not to like things. 🏆️
youreathing
I don't blame him. His current format is a lot less restrictive than a network tv show.
trackeroc
He said he did everything he wanted to do with the format, why bother dealing with suits again?
Also: Betty White used to drop by just to do bits with him - no one could replace her.
ThisGuyPostingThings
I didn't know he had a podcast. Last I'd seen, he was hosting a History Channel show and some game shows.
samwyze
That bluffing gameshow about lying was pretty fun. You could tell he was having good time.
DonL9
His podcast is pretty good. An hour or so chatting with guests about things that bring them joy.

i mean, if he's making good money podcasting why would he want too? It's gotta be much less effort and hassle.

Have any of you seen After Midnight “@m” with Taylor Tomlinson? My daughter and I get a kick out of it.

I started to watch the first episode, but I'm just not that interested in the game show style.

MyCakeDayOnlyComesOnceEveryFourYears
It drives me nuts that they don't just upload them in order!
marsilies
It's probably deliberate. "Oh, you want to watch it in order? Watch it on CBS or Paramount+".
