Fabulous!
19 July 2004
I am an avid fan of Graham Norton and saw his British talk shows on BBC America (thank God for BBC America) so when I found out he was doing an hour show in America I was ecstatic. This show is just the same as his overseas hits. Asking the audience devastating personal questions, sharing obscure and disturbing internet sites, displaying sexual toys and products for our consideration, creates bizarre game show-like competitions for the audience and chats with big stars like Jennifer Tilly, Paul Rudd, Alan Cumming, Marlon Wayans and Makuly Culkin.

Graham is the strength of this show. Eventually, American guests will understand that, shocking though this may be, IT'S NOT ABOUT THEM! The only reason Graham even has celebrity guests is to have a playmate to get freaked out reactions from. It's all about Graham, kiddies and he deserves it. He is a forty-one-year-old man with the energy and enthusiasm (and randiness) of a teenager. Old ladies love him.

So if you like depraved sexuality run rampant, watching respected actors and comedians go "Wuh??" or just like gay guys with funny shoes, tune into "The Graham Norton Effect."

And, for you homosexual Comedy Central viewers out there, this MORE than makes up for "Straight Plan for the Gay Man." I don't know WHAT they were thinking there.
