\"\"<\/a>Outstanding show with the one and only, often imitated but never equaled: Craig Ferguson.<\/p>\r\nCraig Specials Both Friday and Saturday<\/strong><\/span>\r\nMeanwhile, Craig will be appearing on Comedy Central both Friday and Saturday this week. First on Friday at 2:30am ET\/PT (sounds like it’s time for the DVR) will be an encore presentation of his first comedy special Wee Bit O’ Revolution<\/em> and on Saturday at 10pm ET\/PT will be the debut of his new special Does This Need To Be Said?<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0 Check local listings for the time “in your region”.\r\n\r\nRosie O’Donnell Starts New Show<\/strong><\/span>\r\n\"\"<\/a>Actress\/Comedienne and TV host Rosie O’Donnell<\/strong> launched her new talk show on the Oprah Winfrey Network today, which features what she says is a monologue modeled after Craig’s.\u00c2\u00a0 “Every night his monologue is sort of a stream of consciousness about his own truth and his own reality and a little bit of current events and politics woven in but always with a truth and his own voice,” she told TV Guide<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 Craig was among the many wishing her well:\r\n

Good luck to the adorable @<\/s>Rosie<\/strong><\/a> on her new tv show today. Excellent choice of equally adorable @<\/s>rustyrockets<\/strong><\/a> as 1st guest. #<\/s>nice<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\r\n@RustyRockets<\/strong> is of course, madcap actor Russell Brand<\/strong>.\r\n\r\nJosh Encourages Teen Reading<\/strong><\/span>\"\"<\/a>\r\nJosh Robert Thompson<\/strong> has recorded a series of audio public service announcements for the American Library Association’s young adult services arm, encouraging teens to read.\u00c2\u00a0 You can find the clips about three quarters of the way down the YALSA<\/a> web page.\r\n\r\nCraig and Geoff in Music Video<\/strong><\/span>\r\nIf you watch country singer Toby Keith<\/strong>‘s new video for his song “Red Solo Cup”, at about :45 seconds in you’ll see Craig and Geoff Peterson<\/strong> on a television screen, singing along.\u00c2\u00a0 TasteOfCountry.com<\/a> has more on the video and the many stars who make cameo appearances.\u00c2\u00a0 Our apologies for the embedded commercial.\r\n\r\nVideo courtesy: TobyKeithVEVO<\/span>\r\n<\/object>\r\n\r\nTonight’s Guests<\/strong><\/span>\r\n\"\"<\/a>Monday on the Late Late Show, Craig welcomes back the unstoppable Betty White<\/strong> for a comedy sketch and interviews actress Claire Danes<\/strong>.\u00c2\u00a0 CBS tweeted:\r\n

I suppose this isn’t news to anyone but Claire Danes, who is on the show tonight, is very attractive. #soisbettywhite(attractive&ontheshow)<\/p>\r\nTuesday, it’s the return of comedian Steven Wright<\/strong> and Craig chats with actress Monica Potter<\/strong>.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
