Ferguson is Best


This week's Nielsan TV ratings show that Craig Ferguson, the host of CBS's The Late Late Show, is ahead of Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel in ratings following the late night greats Leno and Letterman.

Ferguson became the host of The Late Late Show in 2005 and significantly increased the viewership following the shows inception in 1995.

After watching all the Late Night shows at some time or other, I have to say Ferguson's is the best. While Leno is endearing, if there isn't a presidential scandal going on his jokes can often seem stale or flat. O'Bryan and Letterman do nothing for me, as one is too silly and the other too dull.

Ferguson, however, is right in the middle. He is sincere and honest, while still having enough comedy in his show to be entertaining.
