Craig Ferguson - one of the brightest, kindest and most sincerely original talents in late night television - has been brilliantly rewriting the script for what it means to be fun and funny since taking over the "Late Late Show" in January 2005, roughly 13 years after he had his last drink, a fact he has willingly publicized. But what is in fact true is that something really good was happening after midnight for the last decade, and it made drinking and partying look like a waste of both time and human potential. Unfortunately, though, as anyone with memories of some spectacular nights on the town will tell you, that little pearl of wisdom isn’t always true. Nothing good ever happens after midnight … Wait, I’m still in my 30s! Shouldn’t I be going out more? Meh, nah. And, as a man who needed to give up drinking and partying a long time ago, I’ve tried to take comfort in that familiar adage on the rare but disconcerting occasion when my preference for a tamer lifestyle has felt a little more like a preference for a lamer lifestyle. ![]() ![]() ![]() Someone - I’m not sure who and maybe it was your aunt - has always told you that nothing good ever happens after midnight.
