Graham Norton Effect 6/24

I didn't see a thread about this, so I figured I'd start one. Did anyone else check The Graham Norton Effect out last night? I thought it was very very funny, but I'm not sure if an American audience will get it.

For the first time in a long time, Sandra Bernhard didn't annoy me. Thumbs up to the show that can do that.

I liked the show when it was on BBC-America.

I still don't understand why the word "dick" got bleeped, when far more interesting visuals appeared (marlon humping the monitor).

great show....and a refreshing counter to the terrible awful Man Show.

Hopefully this will start a new trend towards making basic cable more adult friendly after 10pm as it regular tv is in Europe.

I watched V Graham Norton when I lived in England, so I was really excited to see this, then I forgot it was on.
Anyone know when they're going to rerun it? I'd say "if", but it's Comedy Central.

It will probably re run every three hours, if I know Comedy Central. They must have played "Introducing Graham Norton" 43 times in the week running up to the actual talk show.

For some reason, I can never randomly find a repeat of a Comedy Central show. They should learn from their cousin MTV and repeat it non-stop until everybody is sick of it, so lazy people can eventually see things.

I saw a repeat at 1 AM last night (or well, today), it was pretty good. I liked the bits and pieces that I saw from "Introducing Graham Norton", those were hilarious.

I loved Graham Norton on that one episode of Father Ted where he plays a socialite priest on vacation. The bit where he's leading a Riverdance session in a tiny little fifth wheel trailer is priceless.

They actually rerun it THAT NIGHT at midnight.

I really enjoyed this - found myself laughing out loud several times.

Only thing was - did anyone notice that the guy marked #1 in the bed game was editted out of the show? I wonder if it was just boring, cut for time or too racy. The doll bit was hilarious!

I can't wait for more - move over Man Show!

I noticed that. I bet they edited them out because they were boring. How interesting is a young heterosexual couple compared to gays, old people, and a threesome?

My answer: not very.
