After you get past all the politically correct, trendy, metro sexual hosts – who try to badly impersonate either Johnny Carson or David Letterman or Arsenio Hall, and have elevated sycophantic, celebrity ass-kissing to a bad art form (like Jimmy Fallon), you may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of one Scottish actor, writer and comedian named Craig Ferguson, who began his late night talk show host career with CBS in 2005, and wrapped up his last episode on Dec 19, 2014.
