HER MOTHER CHALLENGED ME TO MAKE A CHARCUTERIE TABLE.
A FULL TABLE, AND LAY DOWN PARCHMENT PAPER AND THEN I

I WILL NEVER, EVER GET ON BOARD WITH A JOKE THAT YOU START ABOUT
ME BEING SOME KIND OF OLD MAN.
[LAUGHTER] OKAY?
[BLEEP] WELL, DID ANYONE DO ANYTHING FUN FOR NEW YEARS?
ANY NEW YEAR AS-- OH, DID YOU?
OH, NO, DON'T WORRY.
WELL, WE ALL KNOW THAT JEFF BEZOS HAD A GREAT NEW YEARS
BECAUSE HERE'S A PHOTO THAT WENT VIRAL OF HIM RINGING IN THE NEW
YEAR WITH HIS GIRLFRIEND.
LOOK AT THAT.
GENUINE QUESTION, IS THAT A SHIRT OR A TATTOO.
>> NICE.
>> James: IT LOOKS LIKE MR. CLEAN TINDER PROFILE.
>> YEAH, YEAH.
>> James: IT LOOKS LIKE PATRICK STEWART GOT CAST IN
ENTOURAGE.
LOOK AT THAT.
HE LOOKS LIKE A GENERIC PITBULL COSTUME, BUT LIKE ON THE PACK IT
TWOO BE CALLED SOMETHING GENERIC LIKE MIAMI DANCEMAN.
>> Reggie: ACCURATE.
>> James: WE CAN RIP ON THAT PHOTO ALL NIGHT LONG BUT IT'S
TIME TO MOVE IT TFNO ON, TO WHAT THE PEOPLE NEED, WHAT THEY HAVE
BEEN STARVED OF FOR THE PAST TWO AND A HALF WEEKS, AND THAT
IS-- SHOULD I DO IT IN FRENCH.
>> OF COURSE.
>> James: THAT IS LeNEWS.
DUE TO WEATHER CONDITIONS AND RISING COVID CASES AMONG CREW
MEMBERS, OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF CAYS AIRLINES HAVE CANCELLED
MORE THAN 8,000 FLIGHTS.
8,000 FLIGHTS, YEAH.
IT IS BAD.
YOU KNOW HOW I GOT HERE FROM THE U.K., CATAMARAN.
SOLO SAIL.
OVER 16 HOURS.
MUST BE A RELIEF THIS FOR FLIGHT ATTENDANTS OH, THANK GOD I'VE
GOT COVID, I DON'T HAVE TO DUCT TAPE ANOTHER ANTIMASKER TO THEIR
SEAT, FOR AT LEAST A WEEK, GREAT NEWS.
>> AIRLINES CANCELLED MORE THAN 8,000 FLIGHTS OR AS SPIRIT CALLS
THAT, A TUESDAY.
THAT'S RIGHT, JUST THREE DAYS INTO THE NEW YEAR AND WE'RE
ALREADY TELLING SPIRIT AIRLINES JOKES.
I ONLY PUT SPIRIT AIRLINE JOKES IN IN THE HOPE THAT WE'LL GET
ANOTHER EMAIL FROM THAT GUY.
>> GOING TO GET ANOTHER HOT ONE.
>> James: DO YOU THINK.
>> I DON'T KNOW.
>> James: YOU DIDN'T GET A HOT ONE LAST TIME, DID YOU?
>> NO, BECAUSE I THINK CALLING IT OUT MAY BE STOPPED THEM FROM
WRITING ONE SO I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WILL BE A NEW YEARS --
>> James: I WOULD LOVE TO THARY FROM THEM AGAIN.
>> I THINK IT IS BECAUSE THE INTERNET CAFE, THEY DO ALL THEIR
EMAIL FOR THEM.
[LAUGHTER] .
>> James: THAT IS THE MOST SPIRIT AIRLINES THING YOU COULD
EVER IMAGINE.
THEY JUST BUNDLE UP A PIECE OF PAPER AND GO OKAY, WHO IS GOING
TO GO DOWN TO THE INTERNET CAFE.
TO FIRE THESE OFF IN AN HOUR.
MEANWHILE THE WEATHER WAS SO BAD IN THE WASHINGTON D.C. AREA
TODAY FEDERAL OFFICES CLOSED FOR AN OFFICIAL SNOW DAY.
THE AREA RECEIVED AROUND 10 INCHES OF SNOW.
L.A. RESIDENTS WERE LIKE YOU THINK THAT IS BAD, LAST WEEK IT
WASN'T EVEN SUNNY HERE!
I FEEL LIKE IF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CLOSED DUE TO
WEATHER, THE REST OF THE COUNTRY SHOULD GET THE DAY OFF AS WELL.
[APPLAUSE] THIS IS TRUE, THE WHITE HOUSE
ALSO ANNOUNCED THAT THE DAILY PRESS BRIEFING WOULD ALSO BE
CANCELLED DUE TO THE WINTER WEATHER.
IF ONLY THERE WAS SOME WAY, SOME WAY TO WORK FROM HOME BY SOME
SORT OF, I DON'T KNOW, IF ONLY THERE WAS SOME SORT OF VIDEO
CONFERENCES SYSTEM OR SOMETHING THAT WOULD ALLOW THEM TO DO A
PRESS BRIEFING.
WE'VE GOT TO GET ON TO THAT.
>> Reggie: HEY JAMES, THERE IS A THING CALLED ZOOM AND A COUPLE
OTHER SERVICES.
>> James: NO, NO, I DON'T BELIEVE YOU.
IN OTHER NEWS, TWITTER PERMANENTLY SUSPENDED THE
PERSONAL ACCOUNT OF GEORGIA REPRESENTATIVE MARJORIE TAYLOR
GREENE OVER THE WEEKEND BECAUSE SHE REPEATEDLY VIOLATED
TWITTER'S POLICY ON CORONAVIRUS MISINFORMATION.
THEY ONLY PANNED-- BANNED HER PERSONAL ACCOUNT, NOT HER
CONGRESSIONAL THE WHICH IS ALSO KNOWN AS HER CRAZY-LITE ACCOUNT.
SHE WAS BANNED FROM TWITTER FOR SPREADING BLATANTLY FALSE
INFORMATION ABOUT COVID.
ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, SHE IS STILL A FULL-FLEDGED MEMBER OF THE
UNITED STATES CONGRESS.
[LAUGHTER] MOVING ON, DOES EVERYONE HERE
KNOW WHAT DRY JANUARY IS, DO YOU KNOW, WHERE YOU GIVE UP ALCOHOL
FOR THE MONTH?
APPARENTLY ONE IN FIVE PEOPLE PLAN TO TAKE PART IN DRY JANUARY
THIS YEAR.
DO YOU NEED AN ALTERNATIVE, THERE IS NOTHING DRYER THAN GOOD
OLD-FASHIONED POWDERED COULD YOU CANE.
-- KOA COCAINE.
>> 70% OF DRY JANUARY PARTICIPATES SAY THEY SLEPT
BETTER, 60% SAID THEY LOST WEIGHT.
AND 100 PERCENT SAID THAT ACTUALLY IT ICED TEA, IT IS
TOTALLY FINE, BETTER THAN A GIN AND TONIC, I LOVE ICED TEA, I
DON'T MISS ALCOHOL AT ALL.
I DID THINK I WAS GOING TO GIVE IT A TRY BUT THEN I REALIZED
THAT JANUARY 12th IS NATIONAL MARZIPAN DAY AND I WILL
BE DAMNED IF I AM CELEBRATING THAT WITHOUT A DRINK.
MOVING ON, AN ANNUAL LIST WAS JUST RELEASED OF THE PHRASES AND
WORDS THAT SHOULD BE BANISHED BECAUSE THEY ARE OVERUSED.
SOME OF THE PHRASES ON THE LIST ARE NO WORRIES, YOU'RE ON MUTE,
CIRCLE BACK AND WAIT, WHAT?
WHILE WE'RE AT IT WE AS A TEAM MIGHT AS WELL JUST THROW DRY
JANUARY ON TO THAT LIST.
PEOPLE THINK OVERUSED CORPORATE PHRASES LIKE YOU'RE ON MUTE AND
CIRCLE BACK SHOULD BE BANISHED.
BUT YOU WOULD HAVE ALREADY KN THAT IF PER MY LAST EMAIL YOU
LEVERAGED BEST PRACTICES AND CLOSED THE LOOP WITH ME.
AND INSTEAD OF SAYING YOU'RE ON MUTE, PEOPLE ARE BEING
ENCOURAGED TO NOW SAY HEY DUMB ASS, WE'RE TWO YEARS INTO THIS,
GET IT TOGETHER.
NICK BERNSTEIN, ANY PHRASES YOU WOULD LIKE TO GET RID OF.
ANY PHRASES?
I IMAGINE YOURS IS LIKE ARE WE GOING ON A CRUISE?
>> NO, I DON'T REALLY HAVE ANY PHRASES THAT I WANT TO GET RID
OF.
I THINK THE ONLY THING THAT I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS
WHOLE TIME IS CBS MADE TODAY A COMPANY HOLIDAY AND I DIDN'T
KNOW THAT UNTIL I GOT TO WORK.
AND THEY SENT AN EMAIL SO I SHOULDN'T EVEN BE HERE RIGHT
NOW.
>> James: WOW.
JANUARY 3rd IS THE FIRST SHOW BACKK AND SHOW WE'RE IN THE
MONOLOGUE AND YOU'VE AGAIN MANAGED TO MAKE THIS WHOLE THING
ABOUT YOU.
HANG ON, THIS IS A HOLIDAY DAY FOR CBS.
>> YEAH.
>> James: SO WHY ARE WE HERE?
>> YEAH, NICK.
>> James: YEAH, NICK, EVEN THE AUDIENCE ARE LIKE YEAH!
WHY ARE WE HERE?
>> THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.
I DON'T KNOW.
I GUESS I HAVE TO FIND THAT OUT TOMORROW WHEN EVERYONE'S BACK AT
WORK.
>> James: THAT IS THE PROBLEM.
YOU CAN'T REPLY AND GO WHY AM I READING THIS.
>> THIS HAS BEEN BOTHERING ME ALL DAY.
>> James: OKAY.
ANYONE ELSE.
>> SORRY, IT IS NICE TO STEE YOU.
[LAUGHTER].
>> James: OH, HAGAR HAS GOT ONE.
>> WHEN SOMEONE SAYS I SHOULDN'T EVEN BE HERE RIGHT NOW, THAT.
>> James: AND FINALLY A FORMER WHITE HOUSE ADVISOR TO DONALD
TRUMP IS NOW PROMOTING A PROTRUMP BOARD GAME THAT PUSHES
BASELESS CONSPIRACY THEORIES ABOUT THE 2020 ELECTION.
IT'S CALLED ELECTION 2020, YOU DECIDE.
HERE IT IS HERE.
LOOK AT THAT, RIGHT.
BECAUSE WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO RELIVE THE 2020 ELECTION.
IT IS LIKE A TRUMP SUPPORTERS FANTASY OF MONOPOLY COMPLETE
WITH HILLARY CLINTON SPENDING THE ENTIRE GAME LOCKED UP IN
JAIL.
I THINK THEY BLEW IT ON THE TITLE THOUGH, I DO, A CONSPIRACY
THEORY BOARD GAME SHOULD BE CALLED CLUE ANON.
AND THAT'S THE NEWS.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH MORE OF THE "LATE, LATE SHOW,"
EVERYBODY.
>> James: WELCOME BACK.
WE WANTED TO TAKE A MOMENT OUT OF THE SHOW TONIGHT BECAUSE LAST
WEEK WE LOST A LEGEND.
BETTY WHITE WAS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST, KINDEST PEOPLE I'VE
EVER HAD THE PLEASURE OF MEETING, IN THE TIME SINCE I
HAVE BEEN DOING THIS SHOW.
SHE WAS INCREDIBLE.
SHE RADIATED JOY, EVERYWHERE SHE WENT, WHILE KEEPING HER RAZOR
SHARP SENSE OF HUMOR THROUGHOUT HER ENTIRE 99 YEARS ON THIS
EARTH.
SO MEAFN OF US HERE-- SO MANY OF US HERE AT THE SHOW AND AROUND
THE WORLD WERE INSPIRED BY HER.
SHE CREATED SOME OF THE MOST MEMORABLE CHARACTERS ON
TELEVISION WITH A COMBINATION OF HUMOR AND HEART THAT WAS TRULY
UNIQUE TO HER.
AND THE FIRST TIME BETTY WHITE CAME ON THE SHOW IT WAS QUITE
EARLY IN THE RUN.
I THINK WE HAD ONLY BEEN ON THE AIR A FEW WEEKS, RIGHT, ROB.
>> RIGHT AT THE BEGINNING.
>> James: RIGHT AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SHOW.
AND I WENT TO SEE HER IN THE DRESSING ROOM BEFORE THE SHOW
STARTED.
AND SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE HAD READ AN INTERVIEW THAT I HAD
DONE, BEFORE THE SHOW AIRED WHERE I HAD BEEN TALKING IN THIS
INTERVIEW.
I SAID THAT I THOUGHT THIS SHOW WAS DOOMED TO FAIL AND I WOULD
BE BACK IN LONDON WITHIN A FEW MONTHS.
AND I HAD NO VISIONS OF STAYING HERE OR BEING HERE.
AND I COULD NEVER ENVISION, I THINK I SAID IN THE INTERVIEW,
THERE IS NO CHANCE YOU ARE GOING TO STEE ME DRIVING DOWN SUNSET
BOULEVARD IN A PORSCHE IN THREE YEARS TIME.
AND BETTY TOLD ME BEFORE THE SHOW THAT SHE HAD READ THIS
INTERVIEW AND SHE TOLD ME, SHE SAID TO ME, SHE SAID THIS SHOW
IS GOING TO BE AN ABSOLUTE HIT.
AND SHE GAVE ME THIS, WHICH WAS THIS PORSCHE THAT SAYS TOO JAMES
LOVE FROM BETTY WHITE, SHE SAID YOU CAN HAVE THIS ONE UNTIL YOU
BUY YOUR OWN AND DRIVE IT DOWN SUNSET BOULEVARD.
BECAUSE I ABSOLUTELY BELIEVE YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE A REAL
SUCCESS OF THIS.
AND IT SAT ON THE SHELF IN MY OFFICE AND I HAVEN'T BOUGHT A
PORSCHE, BECAUSE I DON'T THINK I WILL EVER BE ABLE TO BUY A
PORSCHE THAT WILL MEAN MORE TO ME THAN THIS ONE THAT SHE GAVE
ME THAT DAY.
WE WERE SO LUCKY TO KNOW HER.
WE REALLY, REALLY WERE.
HERE ARE SOME OF OUR FAVORITE MOMENTS ON THE SHOW WITH BETTY
WHITE.
>> A LIVING LEGEND, A WOMAN WHO NEEDS NO INTRODUCTION, SIMPLY
BETTY WHITE IS ON THE SHOW TONIGHT.
THERE SHE IS.
DID YOU ENJOY YOUR JOURNEY ON THE.
>> OH, YES, AND, ARE YOU MARRIED?
>> I'M BETTY WHITE AND I'M GOING TO CALL JAMES CORDEN AND PLAY A
LITTLE PRANK ON HIM, BUT HE DOESN'T KNOW THAT.
>> HELLO.
>> MY DRESSING ROOM IS NOW, IS BROWN.
AND THERE'S NOTHING WORSE THAN BROWN.
>> I DON'T THINK IT'S BROWN.
I THINK IT'S LIKE AN OFF WHITE, MORE LIKE A CREAM.
>> CREAM IS JUST BROWN MILKED DOWN.
I LIKE M & MS BUT ONLY THE YELLOW ONES.
>> ALL RIGHT, JOHNNY, I REALLY APPRECIATE IT.
>> James: I APPRECIATE IT TOO, BETTY.
>> JOHNNY, I WILL SEE YOU LATER.
>> James: GIVE ME YOUR BEST POKER FACE.
[LAUGHTER] >> OH HONEY, YOU PROMISED ME YOU
CHANGED.
AND SO DID YOU.
>> James: BETTY, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
WE LOVE YOU, BETTY.
WE'LL MISS YOU SO VERY, VERY MUCH.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH MORE OF THE "LATE, LATE SHOW."
♪
>> James: WELCOME BACK, LET'S MEET OUR GUESTS TONIGHT, SHE
STARS IN GOOD SAM, PLEASE WELCOME SOPHIA BUSH.
>> Reggie: IT'S SOPHIA BUSH.
>> James: HOW ARE YOU?
>> GOOD TO SEE YOU.
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.
AND HE WROTE AND DIRECTED BEING RICARDOS, IT'S AARON SORKIN.
>> Reggie: IT'S AARON SORKIN.
>> WOW.
>> James: WELL, LOOK AT US, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING
HERE, THANK YOU FOR COMING.
IT'S OUR FIRST SHOW BACK, NEW YEAR, JANUARY 3rd, NEW
YEAR'S RESOLUTION, IS THAT SOMETHING IN YOUR LIFE, DO YOU
DO THAT?
>> I'M JUST NOT VERY GOOD AT THEM.
>> James: SURE.
>> I HAVE SORT OF GIVEN THEM UP BECAUSE THEY MAKE ME FEEL BAD
ABOUT MYSELF.
I DID DECIDE THIS YEAR I WANTED TO BE BETTER AT A FEW THINGS.
I WOULD LIKE TO ACTUALLY TAKE THE VITAMINS THAT I BUY, BECAUSE
THEY SIT THERE AND JUDGE ME ON THE KITCHEN COUNT EAR.
AND I WOULD LOVE TO NOT HAVE 804 UNREAD TEXT MESSAGES.
>> James: REALLY, 804.
>> THEY'RE NOT RECENT, I DON'T KNOW HOW I HAVE MISSED THEM,LET
ALONE THIS MANY.
>> James: TELL TU WHAT, I THINK YOU ARE OKAY BECAUSE YOU
HAVEN'T READ THEM.
SO THEN YOU'RE NOT IGNORING THEM.
IT'S WORSE TO HAVE WHAT I HAVE WHICH IS A MASSIVE THING THAT I
HAVE READ AND THOUGHT I'LL DO THAT LATER.
AND THAT WAS FOUR YEARS AGO.
YOU KNOW?
NEW YEAR AS RESOLUTIONS A THING FOR YOU, AARON?
>> WELL, YEAH, I THINK THAT I SHOULD EAT FEWER POP TARTS THAN
I HAVE BEEN EATING?
>> James: DO YOU.
I NEVER HAD YOU DOWN AS A POP TART GUY.
>> POP TARTS ARE DELICIOUS.
THEY'RE FANTASTIC.
BUT I EAT THEM EVERY DAY ALL DAY LONG.
>> REALLY?
>> James: SERIOUSLY.
I HAVE NEVER HAD A POP TART.
>> OH.
>> IS THAT BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT FROM HERE OR YOU DON'T LIKE
PASTRIES.
>> James: WELL, THEY CAME OUT LATER IN SHALL-- THEY ONLY CAME
OUT IN THE U.K. WHEN I WAS AROUND SORT OF 14, 15.
WE COULDN'T IN OUR HOUSE AFFORD SUCH DELICACIES AS POP TARTS.
THAT WASN'T, BECAUSE THEY WERE SEEN AS SORT OF SOMETHING THAT
LIKE RICH KIDS AT SCHOOL WOULD BE LIKE I HAD A POP TART.
AND YOU WOULD BE LIKE YOU KNOW, LIKE THAT.
BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING NAME BRAND.
YOU KNOW, WE DIDN'T HAVE COCA COLA, WE WOULD HAVE LIKE ROLLA
COLA, YOU KNOW, STUFF LIKE THAT, YOU KNOW.
>> YEAH.
>> I WAS ACTUAL THREE DOING A TALK SHOW WITH ONE OF YOUR-- .
>> James: GRAHAM NORTON.
>> NO.
>> IT IT WAS JIMMY KIMMEL.
>> James: I THOUGHT YOU MEANT IN BRITAIN.
>> NO, I-- I DIDN'T WANT IT TO NAME A COMPETITOR OF YOURS, I
GOT LOST IN THAT.
BUT I HAD TALKED ABOUT POP TARTS AND I MENTIONED THAT STRAWBERRY
AND BLUEBERRY, THOSE ARE THE ONLY-- THOSE ARE THE REAL POP
TARTS, UNFROSTED, UNTOASTED.
>> UNFRASED.
>> YEAH, AND NEXT DAY KELOGUES-- KELLOGGS SENT ME A
CRATE OF POP TARTS, SO I DON'T WANT TO SAY ANYTHING THAT IS
GOING TO STOP THAT FROM HAPPENING.
YEAH.
>> James: NOW SOPHIA, I WANT TO TALK TO YOU, THIS PAST
CHRISTMAS YOU GOT INTO MAKING YOUR OWN ORNAMENTS.
>> YES.
>> James: OKAY.
EXPLAIN WHAT I AM LOOKING AT HERE.
THESE ORNAMENTS HERE.
WHAT IS HAPPENING?
>> WELL, YOU KNOW, SANTA GLASSES, WE'RE SIFTING FOR JOY,
ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS WATCHED A TIKTOK, I LEARNED THERE IS STIK
TOK FOR CRAFTING, I'M NOW DOWNLOADING TIKTOK AND WE
LEARNED HOW TO MAKE ORNAMENTS.
SHE MADE A COUPLE OF CUTE LITTLE RED AND WHITE MUSHROOMS THAT
LOOK LIKE SOMETHING FROM A GNOME VILLAGE TO GO ON OUR CHRISTMAS
TREE, I GOT HOME, I NEEDED A THING TO DO WITH MY MER IN VOWS
ENERGY, SO I'M NOT SLEEPING AW MONTH, I MADE ONE AND THEN I
MADE 76 OF THEM.
>> James: CAN I ASK, WERE YOU ON MUSHROOMS.
>> HONESTLY, NO, BUT I THINK IF I HAD BEEN THERE WOULD BE 200.
I MADE ENOUGH TO FILL THEM WITH ALL THE ORNAMENTS ON THE BIG
TREE IN THE BACK AND THEN HAD TO ORDER A FOUR FOOT STREET
OVERNIGHTED SO I CAN PUT THE REST OF THE MUSHROOMS ON THEIR
OWN TREE.
AND I THINK WHAT I SHOULD DO NEXT CHRISTMAS IS PUT JUST A
LITTLE BIT OF A REAL MUSHROOM IN ONE OF THEM AND MAYBE EVERYBODY
FIND IT, LIKE EASTER BUT MORE FUN.
>> James: THERE IS NO WAY SOMEBODY MAKES 76 MUSHROOM
ORNAMENTS UNLESS THEY ARE ON MUSHROOMS, OR, OR, HERE ME OUT,
COCAINE YOU KNOW, I NEEDED NEITHER BECAUSE MY FIANCE IS
VERY INTO WINE.
SO HE JUST KEPT OPENING RED WAYNE FOR ME.
AND I WAS LIKE WATCH ME AND THE PAP-- PAPER MASHIER ALL NIGHT, I
ALSO BROUGHT IN THE TREADMILL, I DON'T RESPOND TO EXMAILSK TAKE
VITAMINS OR RIDE THE EXERCISE BIKE.
I SAUD IS WHAT YOU.
>> YOU.
>> AARON, ARE YOU KNOWN TO BE A BIT OF A WORKAHOLIC.
YOU DON'T STOP WORKING, COULD YOU DO THAT.
COULD YOU MAKE 76 MUSHROOM ORNAMENTS.
>> COULD I MAKE ONE SWRZ NO.
NOW YESTERDAY REPUBLICAN REP MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE, SHE
QUOTED.
>> YEAH, SHE CAN GO TO HELL.
>> James: YEAH, WELL SHE QUOTED YOUR LINE, YOU CAN'T
HANDLE THE TRUTH WHEN SHE GOT SUSPENDED BY TWITTER.
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON HER USING YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE
TRUTH.
>> I LIKED IT IT A LOT BETTER WHEN BURGER KING WAS USING IT.
>> James: WHAT DID THEY USE IT FOR.
>> YOU CAN'T HANDLE THIS WHOPPER.
>> James: YOU CAN'T HANDLE THIS WHOPPER.
>> AND I COULD NOT GET A FREE WHOPPER OUT OF THEM.
>> James: HANG ON, ALL YOU DID WAS MENTION POP TARTS ON KIMMEL
AND YOU GOT A.
>> POP TARTS FELL OUT OF THE SKY, OKAY.
BUT BURGER KING, NO, IF I SAY THIS NOW THEY WILL BE WHOPPERS
AT MY DOOR.
>> James: THEY WILL.
IT WILL BE A WHOOPERO, OONIE.
NIX TIME YOU WERE ON THE SHOW, YOU WILL BE LIKE I DON'T KNOW
WHAT HAPPENED.
SOPHIA, YOU GREW UP A FEW BLOCKS FROM THE STUD.
>> I DID.
>> James: WHAT WAS THIS AREA LIKE WHEN YOU WERE GROWING UP
AROUND HERE, BEFORE THE GROVE AND ALL THOSE THINGS.
>> YEAH, VERY DIFFERENT.
I MEAN THE GROVE WASN'T HERE.
THE FARMER'S MARKET WAS.
AND WE GREW UP, WELL, I GREW UP, MY PARENTS WERE CLEARLY ALREADY
GROWN UP, ON FIFTH STREET.
WE HAD THIS CUTE LITTLE BUNGALOW.
MY BAD DAD'S FIRST PHOTO STUDIO IS WHAT WAS NOW ANDANTE COUGH
YEE ROASTERS, YOU CAN SEE THE TILES MY PARENTS HAND LAID IN
THE 07S BECAUSE THEY DROVE UP HERE IN BAJA IN THEIR TRUCK.
I RAN AROUND THE STREET AND PLAYED WITH MY NEIGHBORS AND
WENT TO THE FARMER'S MARKET.
I WAS REALLY INTO TEENY TINY DOLL HOUSE FURNITURE WHICH WAS
PROBABLY A PRELEWD INTO REALLY INTO MAKING MUSHROOMS WITH PAPER
MASH YER I LIKE SMALL THINGS, WHICH IS PROBABLY WHY I PLAY A
SURGEON ON TV.
I WORK WITH NEEDLES ALL DAY LONG.
>> James: THAT IS NOT A SMALL MUSHROOM.
AARON, LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR BRILLIANT FILM, BEING THE
RICARDOS, YOU WROTE IT, I THINK THE PERFORMANCES ARE GREAT, IT
IT TK LOOS BEAUTIFUL.
IT IS INCREDIBLE.
FOR ANYONE WHO DOESN'T KNOW, WHAT WAS IT ABOUT THIS STORY
THAT APPEALED TO YOU.
THIS PARTICULAR MOMENT IN THEIR LIFE.
>> THE FIRST THING THAT GOT TO ME WAS I DIDN'T KNOW THAT
LUCILLE BALL HAD BEEN-- BEEN-- KEEP-- SHE CAME CLOSE TO
BEING CANCELED.
I FOUND THIS OUT ON SUNDAY NIGHT AND SHE ALMOST-- THERE WERE ALSO
THESE VERY INTERESTING POINTS OF FRICTION BETWEEN LUCY AND DESI.
ESPECIALLY BECAUSE WHEN WE THINK OF THEM THE PICTURE WE HAVE IN
OUR MIND IS OF LUCY AND RICKY RICARDO.
JUST LIKE WHEN WE THINK OF CHAFERLIE CHAPLIN, WE THINK OF
THE LITTLE TRAMP AND HE DIDN'T LOOK ANYTHING LIKE THAT LUCY AND
DESI WERE NOTHING LIKE LUCY AND RICKY.
THEIR LIVES, NO SURPRISE WERE CONSIDERABLY MORE COMPLICATED
THAN LUCY AND RICKY.
SO ALL OF THAT INFORMATION WAS BEING FED TO ME BY OUR PRODUCER
TODD BLACK DURING KIND OF AN 18 MONTH COURTSHIP HERE TO HELP ME
WRITE THIS.
I DIDN'T KNOW YET I WOULD BE DIRECTING IT.
AND THE THING THAT TIPPED ME INTO YES WAS LUCY ARNEZ, LUCY
AND DESI'S DAUGHTER, THE FIRST TIME I MET HER AT A LUNCH SHE
WENT TO ME AND SAID LISTEN, MY MOTHER WAS NOT AN EASY WOMAN,
TAKE THE GLOVES OFF.
I WENT ALL RIGHT, I'M NOT GOING TO WIN ANY NEW FAINS BY TAKING
THE GLOVES OFF AGAINST LOSEL BALL BUT ITS WITH AN INTERESTING
MOVIE TO ME.
>> THE PART IN THE MOVIE WHERE THE CBS EXECUTIVE TELLS, LUCY
AND DESI WHAT THEY CAN AND CAN'T DO.
>> CBS STANDARDS OF PRACTICES WHICH I'M SURE YOU HEAR IT FROM
TIME TO TIME.
>> I DON'T THINK THEY GET INVOLVED IN OUR SHOW VERY MUCH,
DO THEY.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE NOTE THAT YOU HAVE GOT FROM AN EXECUTIVE
IN YOUR CAREER.
>> MY FAVORITE WAS EARLY IN THE WEST WING, ONCE THE SHOW WAS A
BIT OF A HIT WE GOT A LITTLE MORE ELBOW ROOM, VERY EARLY ON.
AND ACTUALLY INTO THE SECOND EPISODE, EVER.
AN AIR FORCE JET CARRYING MILITARY MEDICAL PERSONNEL GOING
TO A PLACE THAT NEEDED THEM IN THE MIDDLE EAST ACCIDENTALLY
WANDERED INTO SYRIAN AIRSPACE AND WAS SHOT DOWN.
SYRIA SHOT IT DOWN.
AND WE GOT AN ANGRY LETTER FROM THE HEAD OF AT RAB AMERICAN
ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE.
SO NBC WAS KIND OF ON THEIR TOES AND A FEW EPISODES LATER I WROTE
A LINE TO RICHARD SHIP WHO PLAYED TO BY, A THROW AWAY LINE
REFERRING TO HEBREW SLAVES IN EGYPTS 5,000 YEARS AGO, AND
STANDARDS AND PRACTICES CIRCLED THE LINE AND SAID PLEASE SHOW ME
YOUR RESEARCH.
SO I SENT THEM EXODUS.
THIS IS HOW I WAS TAUGHT.
YOU GOT SOME OTHER INFORMATION.
SO THAT WAS MY FAVORITE.
>> James: AND THEY WERE LIKE OH, OKAY, GOT IT.
>> AS LONG AS YOU CAN SOURCE IT.
>> James: WELL, THE FILM IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> James: LET'S LOOK AT A CLIP FROM BEING THE RICARDOS
AVAILABLE RATE NOW ON AMAZON PRIME.
>> ACT ONE, TWO, THE RICARDO'S LIVING ROOM, NIGHT.
>> EXCUSE ME, DONALD.
>> YES.
>> GOOD MORNING, I'M LUCILLE BALL.
>> I SURE KNOW THAT.
>> I WANTED TO MAKE SURE, BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T BEEN HERE
FOR AWHILE, ARE YOU GOING THROUGH PUBERTY.
>> I LOOK YOUNG, YES, I WENT THROUGH IT A LONG TIME TOOG, I
HAVEN'T BEEN HERE WITH BECAUSE I'VE BEEN DIRECTING DANNY
THOMAS.
>> THE COMMUNIST KID.
>> YOU DON'T HAVE TO [BLEEP], BUT YOU DO NEED TO KNOW DANNY
TELLS JOKE, I DO PHYSICAL COMEE.
>> I HAVE SEEN THE SHOW.
>> SO HAVE 60 MILLION OTHER PEOPLE.
>> I'M HAZING YOU A LITTLE, IT IS JUST MI WAY OF SAYING I HAVE
NO CONFIDENCE IN YOU AT ALL.
>> STICK AROUND, MORE WITH THESE TWO WHEN WE COME BACK, EVERYBODY
.
>> Reggie: ALL RIGHT, JUST LIKE HE SAID, THEY'RE GOING TO
BE BACK.
>> STOP.
>> IF YOU HAVE A HEART ATTACK I WILL NOT GOING TO STAVE YOU, DO
YOU HEAR ME.
>> I JUST CAN'T GO THROUGH WITH IT.
IT'S TOO RISKY WITH MY DIE BEAT EATS, MY BLOOD PLEASURE.
>> WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT THERE.
THE BENEFITS OUTWEIGH THE RISK.
>> I COULD DIE ON THE TABLE.
>> YOU WON'T DIE ON THE TABLE.
>> HOW CAN YOU BE SURE.
>> BECAUSE DR. GIVEIT IS YOUR SURGEON, HE IS ONE OF THE BEST
CARDIO THORACIC SURGEONS IN THIS COUNTRY.
AND I SAY ONE OF THE BEST BECAUSE I'M QUOTING U.S.A. AND
WORLD REPORT BUT IN MY UPON DR. ROB GIVERIT IS THE BEST.
-- GIVETTE IS THE BEST.
>> Reggie: LOOKS LIKE WE'RE BACK JUST LIKE WE PROMISED, IT'S
GREAT TO BE BACK.
>> James: THAT WAS A CLIP FROM GOOD SAM WHICH PREMIERS
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AT 10:00 ON CBS AND IS ALSO AVAILABLE TO STREAM
LIVE AND ON DE NAND ON PARAMOUNT PLUS.
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE SHOW.
FOR ANYONE WHO DOESN'T KNOW YET TELL US WHAT IT IS ABOUT, AND
WHO YOU PLAY.
>> SO THERE IS A CENTRAL ISSUE YOU MIGHT SAY TO OUR SHOW WHERE
MY CHARACTER, AN ACCOMPLISHED CARDIO THORACIC SURGEON, ONLY 3
PERCENT OF ALL CARDIO THORACIC SURGEONS IN THE U.S. ARE WOMEN,
SHE IS AT THE BEST HOSPITAL, HAS A BOSS WHO IS AN ICON AND A
BULLY AND A TOTAL PAIN IN HER ASS, I'M SORRY IF THAT IS NOT
ALLOWED ALSO, AND HER BOSS HAPPENS TO BE HER FATHER.
SO THIS SORT OF DYNASTIC CLASHING OF THE RAMS CREATES A
LOT OF VERY GOOD FAMILY DRAMA INSIDE THE WORLD OF THE HOSPITAL
THAT OFTEN GIVES US THE LIFE OR DEATH CHASE, TO REMIND US OF
WHAT IS IMPORTANT.
>> James: IT IS NEVER EVER ONCE OCCURRED TO ME THAT I WOULD
EVER WANT TO BE A SURGEON.
>> REALLY.
>> James: IS THAT SOMETHING, DID YOU EVER THINK ABOUT THAT
WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER.
>> OH YEAH.
>> James: REALLY?
>> SO IT IS THE WEIRDEST THING, THIS IS THE LONGEST MAN
FESES-- MANIFESTATION GAME I EVER PLAYED.
I GREW UP WANTING TO BE A SURGON.
AND MY PARENTS WERE THRILLED WHEN I TOLL THEM I CHANGED MY
MAJOR AND WANTED TO GO TO THEATER SCHOOL, AS I'M SURE YOU
CAN IMAGINE.
BUT IT WAS TO THE POINT THAT MY SWEET 9th GRADE BIOLOGY
TEACHER, MR. HALLMAN IF YOU ARE WATCHING, YOU ARE STILL MY
FAVORITE, WOULD STAY WITH ME AFTER WE WOULD DO OUR CLASS CAN
DIE SECTIONS IF BIO TO DO MORE WORK THROUGH MY LUNCH PERIOD,
THIS ANGEL OF A MAN WAS LIKE I THINK SHE REALLY IS INTO THIS
STUFF.
I WAS SO SURE THIS WOULD BE MY CAREER.
AND THEN I DID A PLAY AND EVERYTHING CHANGED.
>> IT IS INCREDIBLE.
>> James: REALLY?
>> NO.
>> >> James: AM I RIGHT IN
THINKING THAT YOU ONCE, IS THIS LIKE YOU WERE WRITING A SCENE
SCENE AND YOU ENDED UP IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM.
>> I BROCK MY NOSE WRITING ONCE.
>> WHAT?
>> AND I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING IF IT WAS FOR A COOLER REASON LIKE
I GOT INTO A BAR FIGHT DEFENDING SOPHIA BUSH.
>> James: YEAH.
>> PLEASE.
>> BUT I GOT UP IN THE MIDDLE, IT WAS THE NEWSROOM, I GOT UP IN
THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT BECAUSE I THOUGHT OF A JOKE THAT COULD
END THE SCENE AND I HAVE A LITTLE OFFICE AT HOME.
I WENT IN THERE.
AND I GET, I'M VERY-- VISCERAL, I'M SAYING IT OUT LOUD, JUMPING
UP AND DOWN FROM MY DESK, WALKING AROUND IT WAS REALLY
WORKING, OBVIOUSLY WHAT I GOT.
WHAT IT WAS IS JEFF DANIELS LNCHING AT A STAFFER LIKE I'M
GOING TO KILL YOU AND TWO STAFFERS HOLDING HIM BACK, THAT
IS ALL IT WAS.
AND THE WANDERING, I ENDED UP IN A BATHROOM IN MY HOUSE.
AND I DID THE LUNGE THAT JACK DANIELS WAS GOING TO DO BUT
THERE WERE NO STAFFERS TO HOLD ME BACK AND MY FACE WENT RIGHT
INTO THE MIRROR.
AND IF IT HAD BEEN A SCORSESE FILM HE WOULD HAVE SAID CUT,
LET'S GO AGAIN, THIS TIME A LITTLE LESS BLOOD.
BLOOD WAS EVERYWHERE, SOO I CALLED THAT FRIEND THAT YOU CAN
CALL AT MIDNIGHT, LISTEN, I THINK I JUST BROKE MY NOSE
WRITING, CAN YOU COME CHECK ME OUT.
AND SHE CAME OVER, WAS PRETTY HORRIFIED BY WHAT SHE SAW, MY
NOSE HAD REALLY SWOLEN UP, YOU HAVE TO GO TO IT THE EMERGENCY
ROOM, I SAID OKAY, BUT CAN YOU LOOK AT THE SCENE AND TELL ME IF
IT IS FUNNY.
[LAUGHTER].
>> James: WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK, EVERYBODY.
>> AMAZING.
>> James: WELCOME BACK, WE ARE HERE WITH SOPHIA BUSH AND AARON
SORKIN, REGGIE DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION FOR OUR GUESTS THIS
EVENING?
>> Reggie: I SURE CAN DO.
TONIGHT'S QUESTION GOES TO, LET'S GO FOR EVERYBODY.
THERE IS A NEW YEAR THAT WE'RE CURRENTLY INVOLVED IN.
ANY PREDICTIONS FOR ANY KIND OF STREAMING FORE MAT COMPRESSION,
ADVANCEMENTS IN THE NEW YEAR THAT MIGHT RIVAL THAT OF 35
MILLIMETER PRINT?
>> James: OKAY, JUMP INTO THAT, SOPHIA.
>> I MEAN GO BIG OR GO HOME, BRING BACK THE AN SELL ADAMS,
REALLY, WOULD BE MY VIEW.
>> James: AARON.
>> SERIOUSLY, IT IT TAKES ME FIVE MINUTE TO FIND A POWER
BUTTON ON MY COMPUTER, HAVE I NO IDEA WHAT ADVANCEMENTS ARE GOING
TO HAPPEN IN TECHNOLOGY IN THE COMING YEAR BUT I LIKE YOUR
IDEA.
>> YEAH, WE'LL GO OLD SCHOOL.
>> James: REG?
>> Reggie: YEAH, THAT'S CORRECT.
>> James: IT'S ABSOLUTELY CORRECT.
PLEASE THANK SOPHIA BUSH, AARON SORKIN, EVERYBODY.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
