Editorial Reviews

Part talk-show host, part comedian, and all-out extrovert, the very Irish and very gay Graham Norton is one of the few people who deserves all the adjectives that are thrown at him: "bawdy," "saucy," "outrageous," "extreme," and "hilarious" are a few of them. His BBC talk show, So Graham Norton, is something that you just couldn't find in America: a rampant exercise in audience titillation that wallows gloriously in bizarre human behavior. Okay, so it sounds like something hosted by Ricki Lake (who's been one of Norton's guests), but in reality it's more like an audience-interactive NC-17 Saturday Night Live, with occasional breaks for celebrity chit-chat. If you ever wanted to see Orlando Bloom, Gillian Anderson, Cher, Sophia Loren, or Dolly Parton (a Norton favorite) break the talk-show mold with bawdy sex talk, then your dreams have come true. And Norton's cringe-inducing yet compulsively watchable audience polls, which ask common folk to relate embarrassing, adult-oriented tales, reveal a European openness (and sense of humor) that just wouldn't fly here if tried in the U.S. Alas, for most American Norton fans, this DVD will be something of a letdown, as it takes bits and pieces from various shows and splices them together, instead of showcasing separate episodes. (One of Norton's strengths is his inspired pairings of A-list and B-list celebs in an entire episode.) Still, this greatest-hits style compilation will provide a wild-ride intro and satiate fans eager to revisit prime Norton moments--especially uncensored. A little unexpurgated Norton is better than none at all! --Mark Englehart

Puerile and funny as hell5
Right up front it must be confessed this is humor from the high school boy's bathroom. But what's wrong with that? If that's not your speed, pass. But if you can tolerate a reminder of that brand of humor that stroked your funny bone when you were a teenager, then this is the ticket. Norton is a fast-witted, outrageous, flamboyant, extroverted class clown, and about the best at this particular game (low-brow sexual humor). The star-studded guests, including Elton John, Cher, Dolly Parton, Dustin Hoffman, Ozzy Osbourne, etc. the list goes on and on, are fun to watch in their unguarded moments when they use dirty words and talk about things that just aren't talked about on other talk shows. Nothing sophisticated here, but still worth your time. Will cleanse you of a dozen different sexual hang-ups.

GODLEY 5
This is one of the best dvd's ever. It is on the funny level of the BBC's COUPLING or the US's Seinfeld.

MUST SEE!5
I normally don't like this kind of humor but this DVD is so flippin hilarious I actually got a headache from laughing so hard. I don't think I stopped laughing for more than 30 second the entire show!! MUST SEE!
