My God. I love nearly everything Gaiman wrote. Comics, episodes, books, short stories... But it still shocks me how funny and loveble is as a person himsfelf like here. He Is really fantastic
12:13 "Do you know, honey, I believe that guy was actually a swarm of bees!" Probably one of the funniest sentences ever put together by a human being.
I read (I believe) in an intro in one of the sandman tpbs that Dream was based loosely on a combo of Robert Smith, the singer from Bauhaus and Neil Gaiman himself.
My Mum was an original founding member of the behind the sofa club as she has proudly proclaimed on many occasions :) my friends little ones are now members too, we went to see it for the 5oth anniversary at the cinema, , 3 generations of Who fans ranging from the first generation right up to the present day, taking up one whole row of the cinema, bought a tear to me eye's that did :)
I'm definitely in that super fanatical group of fans of Neil Gaiman. Since Neverwhere, Neil has ruined quite a few books for me. There's something about his extreme level of "showing" (Visualization) rather than "telling" (Ethics text 101) that paints not only a vivid picture, but an experience for me. He's awesome.
Maybe I let my imagination go a bit too far... but don't you think having Neil and Craig as writing partners would be an awesome experience? Imagine sitting in the living room with them just riffing back and forth on a story for a few hours. Even if the story never got made, the experience alone would be untoppable.
I think the last 2 minutes before the Awkward Pause were definitive proof that they need to write something together. Preferably with sofas and people running from Lovecraft without pants.
I dunno. I think the Awkward Pause was definite proof they need to write together. They worked out a whole outline in 20 seconds and then created a wonderful bit of improv.
Wow its sooo rare to see an interviewer and the celebrity, who gets interviewed by her/ him, beeing on the exact same wave and chat with wach other in sich a natural and therefore amazingly funny way... Havent seen that on the Fallon- show yet...
Interesting to see them talking about people they know in common, and then talking about Doctor Who, and now Peter Capaldi, who knows both of them, is the Doctor.
Alexa Penn There is no other late night show host for me but Craig Ferguson. I mean who else has swearing puppets?!? Who else keeps a TARDIS on their desk?!?
Ellen Murphy LOL. i forgot about the Tardis. he also had a mug with a snake wrapped around it. i wonder why? a conversation thingie?. :) Keep safe 🌷✨🌿🌸🌱🌼🌷
Alexa Penn. I hope you are well. I just found out that Neil Gaiman lives really close to me. ( Don't worry Neil I'm a safe fan). I like it when people reply to me too. I wish I could send you back a TARDIS emoji or something cool Doctor Who thing like that.
Neil Gaiman wrote one of the best Who episodes ever: The Doctors Wife. Please Neil we need a new showrunner on Who please.Might you please please please consider?Please. At the very least how bout a cool episode on Who about bees. Maybe Neil could be the next Doctor? Yes please Neil be our next Doctor and be showrunner at the same time.With Craig as your loveable but inept companion.
+Meeny McSweeny My best attempt to put his writing into one genre would be fantasy, although for quite a few of his stories will have parts that would be considered creepy if not scary.
i find grant morrison to be more compelling of a person, but neil is the better writer. allen moore's got em beat in both areas though. but, that, in a nutshell, is really the holy trinity of comic book writers imo and prob many others' as well.
reading the harry potters? what an immediate insult to his very next guest! lol jk rowling basically just ripped of neil's books of magic. just see for yourself if you're not convinced.
The reason this show is not around anymore is because Ferguson is too busy trying to get his stupid gags in rather than actuallyinterviewing his guests
