Craig To Appear on @Midnight
Just back from some time off, Craig Ferguson will be appearing on Chris Hardwick‘s Comedy Central show @Midnight, on Monday, September 14. If you live in the greater Los Angeles area, you can get tickets to the taping, which will be at 2pm. Thanks to the RSA’s @whyterose713 for the heads up!

RSA Remembrance
We are sad to report that devoted Craig fan and longtime member of the robot skeleton army @mimetska has passed away. As the RSA’s @GenieFirestone related, Mimi waged a valiant battle with cancer for more than three years and was determined to be upbeat through it all. As she posted on her Facebook page, ‘The brave don’t live forever, but the cautious don’t live at all.’ She was one of the first people to follow us on Twitter and was a loyal reader of our posts from the days when when we started out on Blogger. Her favorite day was Groundhog Day, so she will be fondly remembered by the RSA family then and now. She will be missed, and our condolences go out to her family and her many friends.

Goal Surpassed
Josh Robert Thompson‘s indiegogo campaign to help finish post production of his self-titled variety show was a huge success, raising more than 205 percent of the campaign’s goal. Thanks to the donations of fans around the world, Josh will be able to put all of the finishing touches on the pilot episode of his show, to help market it to networks. Josh tweeted:

OVER 50K!!!! Because of YOU, my dream project has been funded 200% beyond our original goal! THANK YOU! ALL OF YOU!

Corden to be Honored
Late Late Show host James Corden will be honored as the Artist of the Year by the 2015 BAFTA Britannia Awards, reports The Wrap. This year’s ceremony will take place Friday, October 30.

No Liza Involved
Craig’s stand up comedy special Just Being Honest debuts September 10 on EPIX. Twitter user ?@tsokolove recently captured a photo of a great taxi ad for the special, as it sped by the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York. Here’s a quick message from Craig about the show:
