Ferguson’s run at the Late Late Show is massively underrated. He was exploring territory with the late talk show format that no one else was touching. Punchlines weren’t just punchlines, they were comedic motifs that him and co-host “Geoff Peterson” (voiced by Josh Thompson) would play off each other like two jazz musicians evolving a melody into something far beyond the original setup.

Seriously, for anyone who hasn’t seen it, find some old clips from the show, it’s worth your time.
