The secret to Craig's success was his profound humanity. His extreme witticism and ability to put anyone at ease. Replacing with cordon was wrong on every level.

He wasn't replace in a classical sense... Craig leaving was his own decision. Cordon was just the next one that was hired by the Channel. You will never find another Craig. Like you will never find another Lettermann, Conan, Leno or even Colbert. They are all unique in their own way and by this, attract their special group of fans

Cordon brought us carpool karaoke, which I absolutely adore. Cordon is also better than Kimmel or Fallon, though neither of them set the bar high... Conan tried to do the flirting schtick too, but the end result was mostly just creepy & awkward coming from him. Craig somehow managed to make "creepy" be charming, charismatic & funny all at once. There isn't a single other late night host who could get away with 1/10th the stuff Craig said, let alone make their guests laugh and feel comfortable while doing it. Craig was one of a kind.

Yeah, right. 🙄 He is getting lots of mileage out of this youtube series mainly from folks who didn't see him back then. There was no clamor from anyone to meet his pay demands, so he played it all off by saying he'd had enough. Which of course was BS. He was a one trick pony who didn't wear well.

@@brettbaratheon9776 whatever fate befalls any of these current clowns has nothing to do with Ferguson. My critique of him stands. His one "talent" was flirting with these gals who knew what was coming and played the part. You know he had other guests on his show? Little of those segments are seen on KZread and if they are no one is watching them. One trick pony. He is getting some run out of this youtube series from a few nostalgic fans, but the majority of it is most assuredly from folks who weren't acquainted with him beforehand. The current crop of buffoons has set the bar incredibly low and Ferguson is likeable but watching him chat up hot chicks does not endure on TV. History proves it.

Diane Kruger is so different from 99% of the other guests featured on this channel; in a good way. So relaxed and obviously (?) not putting on an act of false cheeriness, vivaciousness and flirtiness. Or maybe she's such a great actress it just seems that way ;-) What a great conversation this is.

I'm also german, i have the feeling she could be a bit tricky in a relationship. 🤔 In opposite to her role in Troy i think you can get easy in trouble with her... She's a bit on the distance with Craig. He's such a great guy.👍🏻

I won't talk about Diane's looks because they're obvious. But man, what a classy woman. It's like seeing a golden age of Hollywood actress.

It's weird how I prefer to watch Craig's older videos than the jimmy's and james of today. Thanks @The Jayleno Fly to compile these for us.

I've always liked Diane Kruger, but seeing her in a totally unscripted scenario is totally refreshing. She has a fantastic sense of humor and proves that all my instincts about "This is a Special Person" 100% correct!!! Thank you for sharing this.

I would mention her legs but I'm trying to stay strong. Another great video Mr. Jayleno Fly. Thank you very much.

It's crazy watching his flirting/conversational skills grow over the years. If you watch a few of his earlier episodes... he was clumsy at times and said things that would bring the interview to an awkward standstill. But he became better and better and recovering and turning any off-moment into a win. Not to mention, many of the female guests heard tales of his flirting wiles and would visit the show just to have fun and 'shoot their shot' in a playful way.

I truly miss the Craig Ferguson show! In my opinion, it was one of the funniest and best talk shows! And I loved Diane Kruger's appearances. She is not only an amazing actress, but she also has a great sense of humor. I lived in Frankfurt, Germany for 17 years after I got out of the Air Force in the 70's, and was married to a german woman. They were some of the best years of my life! We remained the best of friends all these years, after we divorced due to family reasons. I needed to come back to California,and she couldn't leave her mom alone since she was an only child.We have kept in touch and chatted online and call each other all the time. She is an amazing woman! I have been a widower since Dec. 2020 from my second wife, and consider myself very lucky that I had both women in my life!

Hands down the best talk show personality ever

Dang, killer intellect. I love her.

I've just seen a recommendation video about her in another talk show, "The Late Show" or something. ... So far, I believe Craig is the ONLY host who has been so unique in making his guest so comfortable in this kind of show. I've seen a bit from other hosts, and I honestly feel awkward after a few minutes: those host seem to be only interested in knowing the person in front of them but with the feeling of being an interrogator, which most of the times lead to uneasy questions. Yes, there have been a couple of times Craig has asked something that was slightly pushy, HOWEVER he always managed to make them heart fully laugh a few seconds later. He's the best, period. And thanks again to the author of this KZread page in making these wonderful clips!!

"Would you like to stay or would you like to go?" "Maybe." LOL Women and their mind games.

"You're very good at acting and stuff". This is why he should be forever on national TV.

Aside from the first, which was just ok, these interviews with Diane were so much fun! What a great sense of humor she's got, not to mention her beauty! Impressed.

​@@terramarseglia2323 I wasn't comparing one actress with another, nor paid much attention to her blondeness, and though beautiful, there are far more beautiful women - and blonder. But she has an endearing quality she brought as a German woman, which was smooth and fluid, conflicted, yet determined. She gets to the part, where "the shoe fits", and she realizes the jigs up. Diane's acting was simply superb. Without saying a word, she felt the jig was up when Christoph Waltz, waltzed her away to side room. She knew it was up when she reached in his coat pocket, and found the shoe. Without saying a word. The way the terror just waxed across her face, gives anyone the chills. I also loved her German, the way it seem to sing, as she knew how to charm her way through the German military establishment - even the gestopo, and knew the gestures and nuances necessary to survive. And those that didn't - namely the "three fingers" deal. You have to actually go back a watch when the English guy does that, and her reaction, which was slight, but there - if you paid attention. Melanie Laurent's role, while admirable, was not nearly as complex or as conflicted as Diane's. It's a lot easier to paly the straight up heroine, than a character whose very existence is a contradiction. One of the hardest things for an actress or actor to do must be acting, within and act, within an act. Laurent's role was kind of one dimensional and clichést , whilst Diane's performance was on 2 or there different stages. The only complication they added to Melanie's performance was she was banging a black guy, I guess to make her more "interesting", but it only came off as kind of racist. Then I saw Diane in a video where she was in Germany accepting some kind of award, and there she was, like a sweet little girl, come home after doing good in another land. Of course she peaks perfect German, but she not only speaks it, she sings it, and could charm the sweet out of sugar. She really won my heart on a lot of levels. Yeah she's beautiful, but so much more than that too.
