Craig On The Other Side Of The Desk

Here’s a fun run of appearances by Craig Ferguson on Conan shows. First up, from 2000, featuring a weird story about how he ended up being cast on The Drew Carey Show.

Followed up, in 2003, also on Late Night, doing a variation on some of the same material, interestingly. If you want to know more about Saving Grace and its weird lineage, click here.

And finally, making reference to a joke that later forms the backbone of an entire stand up special.
