Super Bowl Preps
Craig Ferguson and the Late Late Show are gearing up for their Super Bowl special, which will be broadcast after your late local news on Sunday, February 3rd following the big game on CBS. On Friday, Craig & Company spent about four hours in the studio, taping segments for the special show. Craig tweeted a couple of photos from the day’s work:

It looks like the makeup will be pretty extensive, with Tuyen and Lisa helping out. At first, we thought it was probably for a segment featuring thoughts from Sean Connery. But then Craig said this:

Wait, isn’t a “Papa Smurf” something naughty? Only the CBS censors would know for sure. Don’t miss the Super Bowl special on February 3rd!

Craig to Appear on ‘The Talk’
During the week leading up to Super Bowl Sunday, the CBS daytime show The Talk will be in New Orleans. Craig will appear as a guest on the show on Tuesday, January 29th. Set those DVRs!

Back in the Day

The RSA’s @GizelleSays tweeted a great photo of Craig with his friend Peter Capaldi in the punk rock band Dreamboys. They look rather straight-laced in the picture, despite the kind of music they were playing at the time.
