Craig Ferguson<\/strong> tweeted the network’s jab, reported in the Washington Post<\/a>:

CBS, announces new reality series \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcDancing On the Stars’ http:\/\/wapo.st\/MFMWch\u00c2\u00a0<\/a>\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Yeah! Suck it ABC. ?#<\/s>theycancelledthedrewcareyshow<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\nArsenio Confusion<\/strong><\/span>\r\n\"\"<\/a>Craig had to explain on Tuesday’s show that just because Arsenio Hall<\/strong> is getting a new late-night talk show, doesn’t mean he’s getting fired. The rumor mill started when Hall announced that he would be hosting a new show in 2013 with the help of CBS. What he didn’t say is that “CBS” in this case is really CBS Television Distribution, a division of CBS that syndicates programs to many different television stations and networks around the country, like Dr. Phil<\/em>, Entertainment Tonight<\/em>, Jeopardy<\/em>, Wheel of Fortune<\/em>, Rachel Ray<\/em> and more. As we reported when the story first broke, Arsenio’s show will not be on CBS but many independent television stations around the country which are not affiliated with the major networks. \"\"<\/a>In particular, the show will be featured on stations owned by Tribune, including KTLA in Los Angeles and WGN in Chicago. Arsenio’s old show was taped at Paramount Studios. We have not heard where the new show will be taped.\r\n\r\nThe show will be airing at 11pm ET\/PT, which puts it in competition with local TV newscasts on stations affiliated with the major networks, as well as Jon Stewart<\/strong>\/Stephen Colbert<\/strong>, Conan O’Brien<\/strong> and Chelsea Handler<\/strong>.\r\n\r\n\"\"<\/a>While only the producers know for sure, this may be an effort to draw a west coast-oriented audience and draw viewers away from Jay Leno and The Tonight Show<\/em>, as well as to capture some of a younger demographic, which is not watching local news, Jay or Dave in large numbers. The show will give Tribune and other independent stations a foothold on late night. Those stations have mostly been running sitcom re-runs in that time slot (Family Guy<\/em> in Chicago, Friends<\/em> in LA, etc.). The show has already been sold to half the markets in the country, with more likely to sign up in the coming year. The Huffington Post<\/a> and others reported on the mix-up.\r\n\r\nThe bottom line: Arsenio’s show won’t be on CBS, nobody’s getting fired and the new show will become another of the many late-night shows available to viewers.\r\n\r\nCraig Talks Movies<\/strong><\/span>\r\nIn an interview with MovieFanatic.com<\/a>, Craig talks about Brave<\/em> and also hints that he has another film project in the works that could surface next year.\r\n\r\nVideo courtesy: MovieFanatic.com<\/span>\r\n<\/object>\r\n\r\nSecretariat Sets Record<\/strong><\/span>\r\n\"\"<\/a>The real Secretariat<\/strong>, for whom Craig’s horse is named, won horse racing’s Triple Crown in 1973. A lingering issue from that year was the horse’s finishing time in the Preakness Stakes. After a careful review of the video evidence, the Maryland Racing Commission ruled that Secretariat’s finishing time was less than previously believed, and actually set a track record. The Baltimore Sun<\/a> was among the many media outlets reporting the news.\r\n\r\nBehind the Scenes<\/strong><\/span>\r\nAll this week, we’re posting video clips from behind the scenes, during the making of the film Brave<\/em>.\r\n\r\nVideo courtesy: Trailer Addict<\/span>\r\n<\/object>\r\n\r\nTonight’s Guests<\/strong><\/span>\r\n\"\"<\/a>Wednesday on the Late Late Show, actor Morgan Freeman<\/strong> spends some time with Craig, and we’ll hear the music of Ben Dukes<\/strong>.\u00c2\u00a0 Dukes tweeted:

\"\"<\/a>Great advice from @<\/s>CraigyFerg<\/strong><\/a>. Will I follow it? Watch the show tonight and find out! Yeahcomeon! http:\/\/lockerz.com\/s\/218704747<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\nOn Thursday, watch for actor Jeff Daniels<\/strong> and author John Irving<\/strong>.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
