The Late Late Show is an
American late-night television talk and variety show on
CBS hosted by
Craig Ferguson since 2005. It immediately follows
Late Show with David Letterman and is produced by Letterman's
Worldwide Pants Incorporated. It originates from
CBS Television City and is shot in
High Definition, as of August 31, 2009. The program dates to 1995, and has had three permanent hosts.
Occasionally, the show is split into 15- and 45-minute segments when CBS airs a daily late night highlight show for either
The Masters, other
PGA Tour events with rights owned by CBS, or
tennis'
U.S. Open. The show then has a monologue to start, followed by sports highlights, and then the guest segments. Since mid-2007, however, the highlights show has aired first, followed by the full hour of
The Late Late Show.
