A week or two ago, in the opener, Craig brought out the leather-clad guy who appears in his opening music video spoofs. Something about about how popular he is and could be bought. I thought it was a must-post here on the Dope, but I can’t find it. My Google-fu is weak. Any help?

A good suggestion, but it didn’t really work for me. A search for “Craig Ferguson” yields 19,900 hits. A search for “Craig Ferguson 2009” yields 280 hits, the first two of which are not even the Late Late Show. The person posting these doesn’t apply much in the way of tags, and I did not remember the name “Chris”.

No harm though, because \*\*GuanoLad \*\*came through big time.

YouTube user **Malinky2Stoatir** is currently uploading every episode of Craig Ferguson.

A few have tried in the past (and CBS themselves do it sometimes) but they usually falter or get a stern note about piracy. But as Malinky is editing out the CBS logo and the clips from films, it’s been let through for some reason.

I’ve relied on Malinky for some time. Anyone know who he/she is?

By the way, I think CBS is now starting to stream Craig(and Dave) online, but I’m not sure their upload is “next-day”, so to speak.
