The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson Adds Sidekick

Part of: The Late Late Show

The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson, which debuted on January 3, 2005, will be gaining an in-house announcer/sidekick. The new addition will make his first appearance on the December 19, 2005 show.

Who is it, you ask? None other than former home electronics superstore spokesman "Fred Rated", costar on Dave's World, and (Hollywood Squares) center square Shadoe Stevens.

Given that both gentleman are charismatic, funny, and extremely talented, the pairing seems like a match made in heaven.

This viewer/fan is quite pleased. Uff da, Shadoe! And, kudos to my naughty little pony, Craig, for choosing so well.

    Joan, thanks for your thoughts, promotion and support. As you probably know by now, I was never hired as a "sidekick," but I'm thrilled to be a part of the show in any capacity. I think Craig is brilliant and I'm happy to add my little "shimmer" as necessary. It's an outstanding team. But I like your taste and clearly superior I.Q.

    Welcome aboard, Shadoe! As a fan from back when I worked at Federated (I'm the only one in my family who didn't meet you and I worked there, ironic, isn't it?), I am very excited about the energy and creativity that you'll bring to an already fabulous show.

    Joan, your mail should contain the discussed present today or tomorrow.


    Hi Shadoe. I know your name so that means something, right?
