** On his first official show, Craig did a segment called, "Things You Will Never See on this Show". One of those things was a sidekick, saying the network had forced him to bring in a parrot called "the Vaguely Racist Parrot". Said parrot insulted the French, and kept saying "Craig Ferguson has a tiny penis" until Craig had him removed from the set.



* QuietlyPerformingSisterShow: Not just to ''Series/TheLateShowWithDavidLetterman'' but late night talk shows in general. While Craig Ferguson built a devoted fanbase, received critical acclaim and performed adequately in the ratings, CBS didn't seem to go out of their way to publicize his show very much[[note]]Compared to the heavy viral video-based promotion that James Corden has benefitted from[[/note]] and his presence on a regular broadcast network didn't give him the trendy cred he might have gotten on cable. His GrandFinale got a fair amount of media coverage, but a lot of the stories started off with some variation on "''Series/TheColbertReport'' isn't the only late night show signing off this week."

* AchievementsInIgnorance: Craig only had a passing interest in late night talk shows but took on the job because he was getting divorced and [[MoneyDearBoy needed a steady job]] (and one that stayed local). This attitude and his natural charisma gave the show a fresh "anything can happen" that emulated (often surpassing) Letterman at his best. He ended the show despite the immense success because he was never really invested in the format to begin with.
