Late Night Highlights: An Hour with Stephen Fry, Fondue Pong & the '93 Farley-McCartney Encounter
While most of last night's hosts found new ways to cover the Winter Olympics (Stephen Colbert's fondue pong being the most innovative), Craig Ferguson used this last quiet week before the return of the Tonight Show with Jay Leno to try out a new format. Instead of puppets and choreographed music numbers, CBS's Scotsman relied on one guest for the entire hour, British comedian/author/actor Stephen Fry. And without a studio audience, last night's Late Late Show ended up being one of the most entertaining hours of television in recent memory, even if you had never heard of Fry. Click through for that entertaining segment, Stephen Colbert's foray in cheese, and the other highlights you missed last night.
5. Laughing with Lindsey Vonn
The Olympic champion spoke, well, laughed with Stephen Colbert about that Austrian cheese remedy and how to tell the gender of skis.

Colbert is getting better all the time. He manages to use multiple styles of humor in various situations, from absurd nonsense to radical cynicism, and always stays sharp and sophisticated. The crack he did on Sarah Palin in his show few weeks ago, by the end calling her a "f*****g retard", was mind blowing. Great stuff.
agree pretty much with what you're saying here, not sure about the poster above me though.
Thanks for sharing!!!
