Video -- Friday's Craig Ferguson Clip is An Unpredictable Monologue

One thing about Craig's monologue as opposed to any of the rest, it seems more dangerous, like anything could happen at any moment.

That's why I watch Craig.

Video -- Big Brother Now With Extra Jessie, Super Action Muzzle Not Included

Bb_jessie_naked_censored


On the one hand, everything below Jessie's neck is right up my alley. On the other hand, everything above it is roadkill housed conveniently beneath the skull.

(Plus, I'm a sucker for a high-and-tight on a bodybuilder. Aren't you?)

What's a guy to do? Watch BB with the sound off?

You remember Jessie, he was the guy from season 10 who, when he won HoH had his private bedroom plastered with pics of ... himself.

But, not the pic above. Because CBS wouldn't have liked that. Pic without the logo at the end of the post after the jump, for you ass fans. And, for you fans of art photography. Hey, it's a black and white image, that qualifies as art, doesn't it?

Bb_jessie I think there's gonna be trouble between the four hot guys in the house, especially between Jessie and Russell "The Lovemuscle," as I surmise they're both used to getting attention for their bodies. I don't think that will be as big a deal for former college football player Jeff (the Jeff Schroeder blog at Blogspot, btw, is not him).

Surfer boy Braden just looks out of shape next to these guys. He should have some internal mischagos over that. Plus, that pouty thing? Doesn't work for me. You?

No chance Jessie will be placed in the Brains clique, though. At least we call all agree on that. It's okay, he's even bigger than he was the first time he played. Or was it the extreme cut out on the shirt (above left)?

Bb_lauraThe guy I'd more than likely get along with best in the house? Ronnie Talbott (don't check his Facebook account, it's been temporarily placed offline, I tried). Only because of this graph in his bio:

He is obsessed with video games and often plays more than six hours a day, even to the point of ignoring his wife. Ronnie is a collector of all things sci-fi, especially Star Wars collectibles.

There are women on the show, too. And a couple other guys. We discussed Kevin last week at this link.

As regular readers know, my favorite part of the show is Big Brother After Dark on Showtime, when the cameras are just rolling and people are just yakking their heads off and someone reveals something that they don't even realize they're potentially saying to every Showtime subscriber in the country.

I could care less who wins and what the challenges are, I just love being that fly on the wall.

Oh, I did notice the one woman, Laura, with the flatironed hair and the huge, just huge!, rack.

Nice of her to climb down from the pole to play the game.

Oh, sorry, she's a bikini model. That's so much more legit.

That's her in her Facebook pic to the right. She needs a new Facebook pic.

And here's Jessie without the logo, after the jump.

Craig Ferguson Video -- White Lines Opening Shows Puppets In Action

Ferguson_white_lines


And ... if you're going to vote for favorite puppet you have to see their work, right?

Note, guitar guy in clip not a puppet, that's Chris without the harness in a big blond wig.

Now, I can't embed the clip because the song is copyright protected (Duran Duran cover version which I had never heard before and it rocks) and the clip would be removed from YouTube and CBS doesn't provide embed code for the clip because they want you to click this link and see it there, which I completely understand.

I don't like it, but I understand it.

While you're there, click this link to vote.

I guess I'll need to go with another clip here. After the jump, I'm posting the segment featuring the Chenbot. Don't watch it if you're looking for a whole lot of Big Brother scoop, though, Craig doesn't really quite get around to it.

But you will meet Sonya the CBS photographer.

More on the new season of BB at TV.com at this link, however, with Julie giving you a tour of the all new all "green" BB house.

Chenbot!

That's Mrs. Chenbot Moonves to you -- hey, they should name the kid Chenbot!

Clip after the jump.

2 Clips -- Craig Ferguson "Let's Make Up For Yesterday" Post

Two clips, Craig tells you all about his trip to Kosovo and Germany for the USO.

Once again, from the One Craig Ferguson Clip a Day Until You Start Watching collection. And, lucky you, you can help the Craig Ferguson audience decided which puppet is their favorite.

Watch the second clip after the jump and then send an email to CraigFerguson@CBS.com or go to the website and leave a note there.

Watch both clips for details on Matt Baetz and the stolen Sarah Palin letter, also.

"One Craig Ferguson Clip a Day Until You Start Watching" Returns With Neil Diamond and The Boston Pops

Craig_kosovo


Craig Ferguson, American on Purpose, returns to the US from his USO tour to Kosovo and Germany with Matt Baetz (image of him in Kosovo above) and immediately runs to the Boston where for the last three years he's hosted their Fourth of July celebration on the Esplanade with the Boston Pops and Neil Diamond.

Because he's just that kind of guy.

I stole this pic from the USO website. Go there and give them some money to help me alleviate my guilt over that. I just did. If you donate in honor of Craig he'll get a little card with your name on it, I presume. But you have to know his address, so for those who would like to ...

CBS Television City
7800 Beverly Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA 90036

Clip from last night's telecast after the jump.

Salvador_dali Craig returns live all next week with guests including Eric Idle, Evan Rachel Wood, Big Brother's Chenbot Julie Chen, Michael Ian Black (new Comedy Central show with Showalter), Jeff Goldblum, Jackie Collins, Michael Buble and Ray Romano.

And if that's not enough, there are puppets and Salvador Dali (Ooooooooh!, see him left) and Chris dressed in a harness and leather shorts.

It's a party, every weeknight at 12:37 am. And starting in September I think were gonna start campaigning to see Craig in HD, because maybe they'll have to fix the leaky roof if they go that way.

I would try to pull some strings for Craig with my fellow high school alum Les Moonves but he graduated years before me. He has no idea who I am.

Yet.

Maybe I get invited to the first HD taping?

Clip after the jump.

Reported: Emmy Awards Closing In on Neil Patrick Harris as Host

Tonys_nph

Well, after the bang up job he did at the Tonys this was pretty much expected, though I thought there was a chance that our TV pal Craig Ferguson might get the nod, too.

Either way is good for me. Craig will have another chance in four years. We'll all be here in four years, right?

Emmy_statue Neil would be the first openly-gay Emmy host who's a man. Ellen Degeneres was the first lesbian to host.

Hibberd at THR:

The two-time Emmy nominee is fresh off a well-received performance hosting CBS' Tonys telecast in June, and took the stage in May for a segment at the network's upfront presentation. In April, Harris hosted the TVLand Awards, which is owned by CBS parent company Viacom.

The 61st annual Emmys will be telecast on Sept. 20. The move could help promote "How I Met Your Mother" in the fall, which is moving to a less protected time slot opening the network's Monday night comedy block.

HIMYM will do fine opening the night for CBS this Fall. I think last season really cemented the show's viability. That's something I wouldn't worry about. Plus, the show will be able to spend more time on their female cast this year, hopefully, assuming neither gets pregnant again.

Watch Neil from the Tony broadcast last month in a clip after the jump singing the closing number, for which he'll probably get another Emmy nomination.

The Emmys air on September 20 on CBS. No, really, the 20th. They changed it. Again.

Video -- It's Big Brother Time, Let's Meet Kevin, the Gay Houseguest!

Bb_chenbot

Every year at this time (and sometimes at other times depending on the Union situation in this town) we look at the new crop of Big Brother houseguests and introduce you to the gay one ... and some of the hot straight guys with whom he will be living.

TV.com has a great page with info on all of them for you to check out at this link.

Bb12_kevinSo, let's start with Kevin, 29, half Japanese, half African-American, all graphic designer from Chula Vista, a San Diego suburb.

From the new BB site at CBS:

Kevin's proudest accomplishment comes from one of the most trying times in his life, growing up a Jehovah's Witness. He was eventually excommunicated at age 21. Cut off from his family and friends, he didn’t let it destroy him. Instead, he found happiness and thrived. He currently works as a graphic designer.

(snip)

Kevin believes the most difficult part of the game will be its duration, but he’ll overcome it by setting mini goals and pacing himself. He’s also not too proud to throw a few battles if it means winning the war. After growing up in the closet, he knows he has the tools to deceive anyone who gets in his way.

Wow, how Godlike of his folks to turn their backs on him, huh? Man, parents can be absolute shit, can't they? Or is it just the JW parents (and their Mormon counterparts, and for that matter lots of other religions where you're supposed to love your family unconditionally).

Note to Kevin: Win the game, but don't win it for them, win it for you. Another note to Kevin: You probably think that it's fun to throw around phrases like Ghetto Fabulous now, but when you're watching the show years from now with a new boyfriend you will wince in pain when you hear it.

For Kevin's parents, a WWJD bumper sticker, free of charge. Anyone have their address? I'll send it right now.

Bb11_braden_russell And now, because I only watch this show for the eye candy and of course the pay cable element of the ordeal on Showtime where I listen for people to reveal things they might not otherwise, here's some scoop on a couple of other guys on the show.

Braden's a surfer, actor, model, (waiter?), and thinks he's hot. Well, we'll be the judges of that, Braden. Already a naked pic of him on the web. Here's his Myspace page link.

Braden's also appeared as the rare hetero guy on Dante's Cove, the here! TV series that almost no one has ever seen. Catch a clip of him, uh ... acting (?) at this link.

The other and in my opinion hotter guy is Russell, an MMA fighter from Walnut Creek who calls himself Russell the Lovemuscle. Probably thought that was unique when he "came up with it," but do a Google search and he's not the only one. He should be the Jesse (BB8) of this go-round.

Speaking of Jesse, my websearch turned up links to new (well, new to me) naked pics (no frontal) which are at this link.

Braden's the one with the hair above, Russell the one without.

Watch the YouTube clips from BB Media Day (no, I wasn't invited and I probably would have passed, anyway) at the Examiner site for the show at this link.

And, after the jump, we check in with the Chenbot (from the CBS Early Show) with a quick feature on the new contestants.

Video -- Craig Ferguson's 900th Show (and still a crap studio)

Is it about time that I start a Make Craig's Show in HD campaign? Because I'll do it, just try me.

Leaky roof, Wolfgang Puck's oil all over the floors, those Soviet-era TV cameras ... this is not befitting an American On Purpose (Amazon link, pre order below)!



Hey Craig, haven't you shot the cover for this thing yet? What's up with that?

Craig makes his own 900th Show Celebration fun in a clip after the jump, because the network just plum forgot.

Tomorrow, the Bryan Cranston interview.

Also, find Craig in the current Entertainment Weekly, The Must Issue, as Must Monologuist.

Two Ferguson Clips, Because I Have to Make Up For Yesterday

Right here below, Craig shows you how to use your thumbs to be more confident. And of course, it's a great day for America, because it was National Eat Your Vegetables Day.

Then, after the jump, watch Craig talk to Sandra Bullock about that Betty White. And there are fart jokes.

BW is always causing trouble. We discussed this earlier in the week. She'll cut you, you know.
