Tom Hanks can be so funny and spontaneous when he just wings a conversation. He's wasted on all the other talk shows doing nothing but skits and games.
One of the things I've noticed about Craig is that comedians love being on his show because they are with a fellow comedian who doesn't give a hoot, is genuine like meeting somebody at a bar. They get to be themselves and do their little stand up while conversing. Plus, Craig either knows a lot of them prior to coming on the show as acquaintances or very good friends. Others just end up bonding with him immediately and then want to come back multiple time. Craig was just gold at Late Night, as much as he undermines it.
So funny how no one seems to have noticed that the lovely photographer at the beginning of this segment was actually Tom's long-time beautiful wife, the actress Rita Wilson.☺
Wonderful gem of an interview. Craig is still admired by and endearing to people around the world, especially in Inner-Mongolia. They call him the "Dhali Hahah".
