With both Jimmy Fallon and Jay Leno not airing tonight, it’s a pretty slow day for comedy. The only offering on the late shows is an appearance by comedian Paula Poundstone. She was rated #88 on Comedy Central’s 2004 list of the 100 greatest stand-ups of all time, and #7 on Maxim magazine’s list of “Worst Comedians of All Time.” Maybe you need to tune in tonight to determine which list she belongs on.

Paula Poundstone on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (CBS | 12:35 AM EST)
Paula used to work at a mini golf course as a caddy, but got fired for recommending the wrong club. Though not true, Poundstone has been in the comedy business since the `80’s. She’s got that Seinfeld-esque observational comedy-thing going on. If that’s your cup of tea, then check her out on Ferguson tonight.
