The third season of BBC America’s hit late-night talk series The Graham Norton Show is now almost half over, but the big-name guests are still showing up regularly.
Tonight at 10pm EST, host Norton will welcome the latest veteran actress to grace his stage, the one and only Susan Sarandon. I have no doubt the New York native will be able to keep up with his trademark raunchy improvisation and banter, so the appearance is definitely one worth looking forward to.
Also stopping by are English comedian Jon Culshaw, who has a knack for impressions, and musical guest The Feeling, a …read more

As everyone in the United States knows, the long-awaited film version of Sex and the City opened in theaters yesterday. Fans of the series will get a treat tonight when star Cynthia Nixon pays a visit on the latest episode of BBC America’s 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.

I hate to be a holiday spoilsport on Christmas Eve, but the truth is out there and must be reported. David Letterman’s production company Worldwide Pants failed to strike a deal with the Writers Guild of America when they met last Friday. The main purpose of the talks was to reach an agreement enabling Letterman and his fellow Worldwide Pants late-night host Craig Ferguson to return to the air soon with writers in tow creating fresh material.
Consequently, as of now, there remains no official guarantee that CBS’ Late Show with David Letterman and The Late Late Show with …read more

And following swiftly on Conan O’Brien’s heels is Jay Leno with the following statement released this morning regarding the return of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno to the airwaves on January 2, 2008.

This has been a very difficult six weeks for everybody affected by the writers strike. I was, like most people, hoping for a quick resolution when this began. I remained positive during the talks and while they were still at the table discussing a solution “The Tonight Show” remained dark in support of our writing staff. Now that the talks have broken down and there are no …read more

Late-night chat show fans, host Conan O’Brien issued a statement earlier today indicating that his NBC series Late Night with Conan O’Brien will return to the air with new episodes starting the second day of the New Year. Here’s what the man himself had to say in his own, I presume, words.
