I take it he was/is big in the U.K.? He has a show over here now (I think it's been on for about a month now) that plays on Comedy Central. Anyway, when I first saw previews for it I wasn't sure if I'd like him or not. But when the show finally came on (after many weeks of promos) I started watching it and I think it's pretty good. I like it because his show has a lot more interactive parts then most talk-shows. He uses a lot more "props" and such. That, and he pushes the edge more as well. (At least as far as American talk shows go) There's a lot more adult humor. Oh, and he involves the guests he has with certain activities which makes for more interesting watching (as opposed to a talk show host just sitting there talking with someone for 10 minutes) That, and the guests stay onscreen a lot longer, usually for the duration of the show. Anyone else watch? |

I'm going to prove a bit unpopular because I know a few people on here loathe him, especially his overly camp demenaour, as it's demeaning to homosexuals in a way, but I really like him. I really used to enjoy his skit at the start where he made fun of Big Brother. I also like "Doggy phone", and of course the almost legendary "Betty". What's good is that the guests have an excellent time and really losen up so they talk more candidly. I mean he even got Dustin Hoffman to perform in a skit where he made fun of Big brother UK. Seing the star of Rainman and Tootise wear a false beard and act as a drunken, foulmouthed geordie was hilarious and something I'll never forget. |

I watch. I like it for the same reasons Legion does. | |||

Bad news for you two then, Graham has transferred to the BBC, so it'll probabl;y neuter his act a LOT, the BBC has always been seen as the most strait laced as the networks over here. | |||

Elmo: Nah, the BBC's always been great for Comedy... They'll screen him if they screened The Young Ones and Bottom Graham Norton is good, and extremely funny My favorite was when he got Linda Hamilton (Sarah Connor, of Terminator fame) to dress up as classic soap character Vera Duckworth I don't think she quite mastered "'ey up, chuck", though As far as talk shows go, it pales in comparison to Jonathan Ross |

I've been seeing the commercials on Comedy Central, but I haven't actually tuned in. To be honest, it looked really really odd. But, who am I to judge? I'm going to watch it sooner or later, probably later though... |
