CRAIG FERGUSON TAPING!!!
By sheer freaking LUCK I managed to get onto the show.
It was super funny, awesome, Doctor Who-themed, (matt smith is gorgeous in person), and the best part? They gave the entire audience the season 5 box set!!!!!
Anyways, so we apparently had the standby tickets and (even though we had waiting in line since noon) when it came time to load in the audience they put us in a separate line while everyone else got to go in front of us. So annoying! I was especially mad seeing as I had flown down from San Francisco just to be there.
But then this awesome girl had an extra person listed on her guarantee ticket and her friend hadn't been able to make it, so she lets me come on as her plus one!! (unfortunately my sister in law wasn't able to get in, but she said she'd rather me get in that her since I'm a bigger fan). The girl in front of me who had been there since 8am also got to go in because someone grabbed her.
Thank you nice people!
Anyways...the show itself: super funny! Matt Smith is super charming and funny and adorable in person. Things you have to look forward to: the skinny tie with the sexy black suit (so hot!), awkward three way pause, awkward three-way, freeze frame high five, "The Odd Couple" the dalek version, "you are the doctor, you can sleep with my girlfriend if you want to," matt contemplates getting a dalek tattoo, Matt's vegas road trip (this story is super funny), and bill and ted totally stole their idea from doctor who.
(hopefully they don't cut too much of this out, I'm not sure how they usually do it on these types of shows).
Chris Hardwick was also there, and was wearing a long doctor who scarf and a t shirt with the delorean crashing into the TARDIS.
Also, so they had a whole dance number planned with craig singing over the doctor who theme song with these dancers and puppets, except last minute Craig found out that his producers hadn't gotten the rights to use the song, so he was super pissed off. They showed the rehearsal of it to the audience, however, and hinted that it might get leaked online. FIND IT, if you can, it was hilarious and I wish they could have done it live.
Anyways, thats all! I just quickly typed up my experience, if any of you were there I was the girl with the pink hair and glasses near the front of the line :)
