The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson

•           Tonight was the premiere of a new version of the TV show "Dallas" with Larry Hagman. He was the original J.R. I used to watch him on "I Dream of Jeannie." He was an astronaut with a gorgeous genie in a skimpy outfit. She'd say, "Oh master, your wish is my command," and he'd say, "Just don't do magic." Even as a kid, I'm thinking, "She will do anything you want. You're an astronaut. Get her to launch a rocket or something."

•           The original "Dallas" series started in 1978. Back then, America was very different. We had an ineffective, one-term president. Gas prices were through the roof. We were in a stand-off with Iran. I'm glad those dark days are over.
