Craig Ferguson

[ClownsandEntropy]

True, though sometimes I worry that too often there will be a specific type of late-night show host which is the standard of how you do things, or is how you must be if you're going to host a show and make that show famous against the many other show hosts out there. Because of that, maybe there aren't going to be show hosts of every single quadra.

<3 Craig Ferguson. he seems like a genuinely funny and nice person

<3 Stephen Colbert too.

I'd love Craig to be an ILE because I love the man so much, but I can't really see it.

Have you read his autobiography at all? It's called "America on Purpose" (I criiiiied). It sheds more light on his actual personality (which is a lot like whats on the show, only he reveals more of how he thinks and reacts to things.) I can see ESE though. And I see why SEE has been mentioned, but I can't really see gamme SF.

He doesn't feel ILE to me though it's a common typing for his brand of craziness.

Sp/so 7 and probably SEE.

[suedehead]

ILE-Ne.

[Narc]

I remember using intertype relations to type Ferguson and my initial belief of SEE eventually gave way to ILE. The biggest hint is how well he gets along with Billy Crystal.

[darya]

Ne base.

[Contra]

Either IEE or ILE. Ne can kind of mimic Fe sometimes so it's hard to say. I lean ILE as of right now, but he seems to get along somewhat well with Fi valuers.

[aisa]

Imo SEE e7 abusing his role Ne.

Conan is a better example of an ILE show host.

Ferguson is basically the guy who is always at the bar, knows EVERYONE, universally loved by everyone, everyone's friend, WANTS to be everyone's friend. He's that guy zooming around from the bar, to the pool tables, back to the smoking pit, on the dance floor, working the room. Getting more and more inappropriate as the night progresses. Complete democrat approach.

This is what Se blocked with Fi looks like imo.

[wacey]

This is interesting, Marion Cotillard and Ferguson together. She is either an EII, his supervisee, or an LII which makes them conflictors. I can't decide which. Either way, a tiny bit awkward? Ferguson and her swing and miss quite a bit.

I think ILE makes more sense for Ferguson. His talk shows are wacky, casual and light-hearted. There is a strong Alpha feel to his comedy. At the same time, his humour has an edgy side to it that can often be seen in the Fe-mobilising Fi-vulnerable combo. The Britney Spears video is him trying to keep things more pleasant and nice when someone is having a bad time. I wouldn't necessarily call it Fi, he has not particular friendship with Britney or is doing this out of a feel for her as a person. He's citing a general principle of not kicking people while they're down.

[myresearch]

XEE types don't make sense for him because he is using Fe back and forth, hence it is valued. I also can't see him as Se-base. ILE-D(Fe), rare subtype.

Here is a scenery that made me thought that he is definitely Ne-dom:
