What’s on Tonight: The Graham Norton Show
If you have cable network BBC America and want a change of pace tonight, I highly recommend checking out an all-new episode of the fab Graham Norton Show.
For those who aren’t familiar with Norton, the popular late-night host is an Irish comedian and actor who’s gained a tremendous, deserved following for his always entertaining and often raunchy (or “cheeky,” as they say in the United Kingdom) humor.
His BBC America series has a format familiar to fans of the genre — the requisite monologues, improvised bits, and, of course, interviews with tons of people famous and not even close.
What differentiates The Graham Norton Show from its American counterparts, aside from the talented host’s signature flamboyant style, is the flexibility he has on European television to introduce subjects that would give FFC members and network censors here fatal heart attacks on a regular basis. In other words, it has lots of the weird, off-the-wall — and, yes, sex-related — stuff that people really talk about when they’re hanging out with friends and family.
The third season of The Graham Norton Show just debuted stateside last Saturday, with Tony Curtis and Kevin Bacon as guests. Norton welcomes another great group tonight, as well, including entertainment veteran Martin Sheen (The West Wing).
Irish comedian Ed Byne shares the couch with the actor, while Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas will be joined by Girls Aloud member Cheryl Cole to perform their new single “Heartbreaker.” Sounds like a good time to me.
Check out a few photos from the episode after the jump to get a better look at what’s in store, and also visit the BBC America website for The Graham Norton Show to watch exclusive video clips and see more photos.
