This is the kind of talk show that most of America lacks. The amazing thing about Graham is that he has the ability to make the guests relax. He gives them alcohol and doesn't ask too many questions... all the guests interact and Graham just joins the conversation its basically just a bunch of celebs chilling out and drinking x
@@theGoogol Craig was brilliant... remember he is originally from Scotland, so he is going to be using the same sort of approach. I love his interviews... no structure, just chatting with his celeb chums. I remember seeing James Woods go on his show once and they just chatted about phones, twitter and girls... just two guys hanging out. Talk shows are about the guests not about the interviewer trying to get some laughs.
It's true. American hosts are always going on about themselves while trying to be funny (and, therefore attention-grabbing). Graham Norton keeps the focus on his guests, reminding us who we're really there to watch - the celebrities! And, consequently we enjoy watching him, too!
Corden has taken the "couch" format and adapted it to American late night while still making the overall show his own. Its close without copying Graham explicitly but you can tell he's paying homage to the format made infamous by him.
Yeah, it's crazy how effortlessly the entire show seems to go. Graham can bring out the best in people. All American talk shows suck compared to his. Colbert, Fallon, Kimmel all seem so forced and disingenuous compared to Norton, and they're also less funny even though they rehearse everything. Conan is funny, but also seems forced sometimes.
Niamh, I totally agree and I am from the US, have been watching them for 30+ years. lol Though I have fond memories as a kid staying up late (think it came on at 11pm in NYC) watching Arsenio Hall. :) Thankfully we have BBC America channel and so I've been watching Graham for years now. :)
There's a fundamental difference between chat shows in the U.S. and those in Britain. In the U.S.A. the host of the show is the star and guests are like incidental extras. In Britain the host makes sure that the guests are the most important people on display.
Is that why James Corden does his show with all guests at once, because he's British? I like that format. I agree with your comment about American talk show hosts. I don't even like watching them, anymore. I do enjoy watching James Corden occasionally, though. I don't know when Graham Norton's show is on, or what station, either.
Nobody said the American format is "wrong", but personally, and I think many will agree, I find the American format boring; mostly because it's been done too many times. Nobody tries to innovate. Nothing wrong with the hosts either, but if I'm watching an interview of an actor I like, I'm watching it for the actor, and I wanna hear him/her talk, not the host interrupting and trying to be funny every 10 seconds. Besides, the whole "the show should revolve around me, the host" seems a little too self-centered and egotistical. Graham lets the spotlight shine on the guests, and it is thanks to this show that I've come to actually know anything interesting about the guest celebrities. And this reflects on the topics of conversation too. Graham clearly does his research on every guest and asks actually interesting questions, while, for example, Conan (as funny as I think he is) asking Nina Dobrev about her dress was the thing that made me get away from American chat shows for good.
@@miaferrari958 ... I agree with basically everything you just wrote. Except I've never watched Conan's show. But I WAS thinking of Stephen Colbert when you were talking about self-centered. I used to enjoy watching his show sometimes. Then, before the 2016 Presidential election, all he seemed to talk about in his monologues, and still does from the commercials I see, was (and is) Donald Trump. I don't like Trump (in general), and I want to watch the show for the guests, and hear monologue jokes about other stuff aside from his stupid impressions of the President. Once in a while I can understand. But by the time I stopped watching, it was every single night. Basically his whole monologue, each night, was Trump this, Trump that. And with his guests, he does the same thing you wrote about. It's all about the host, and not the guests. It's tiring.
My personal favourite moment to ever happen on Graham's show is the Chris O'Dowd fly incident. If you haven't watched it yet, I highly recommend. Makes me laugh every time I watch it.
It's amazing to me how he juggles the guests and they get equal attention, how he directs the conversation to lead into another guests story (amazing research too) and making it flow in a natural way. The wit it takes to be so funny at need and the intelligence to orchestrate the show on the fly are the reasons why I think this is the best chat show I've ever seen.
I can't forget how Graham bullied Jade Goody so mercilessly on his show and had the gaul to meet her straight out of the BB house before she had chance to see any of it. If he did it today he would be cancelled immediately. Plain nasty imo.
I dont always find Nortons comedic style funny, but he is the most gifted of interviewers. He simply lets the stars be who they are, with clever interjections. he respects the stars enough not to jump into the frame like many noisy paranoid egotistical maniac interviewers hell bent on outshining the guests.
Pretty all of our american talk show hosts suck. At least since craig ferguson left. Conan is the only tolerable one just because he's been doing it so long.
Alistair Shaw - He is better than others and has more reputable guests, but the rest of his show is just liberal propoganda. He was awesome when doing the colbert report.
Haha, when he recovers from his James Bourne almost immediately with a Jason Bond quip, that's when you remember there's a reason he and Affleck won an Oscar for writing. He's a sharp fellow.
HRDstrange ah, it's not that funny so I wouldn't bother watching them. going back and watching 12 years worth of videos about a couple of celebrities.. no thanks
Matt Damon: "This is the Most Fun I've Ever Had on a Talk Show" Yes because Graham Norton is by far the best talk show host. American hosts are good but nowhere near him. Why? because GN never takes the 'I am better than my guests' attitude.
I think probably because Graham never tries to catch them out. He sends them up sometimes but hes never nasty or trying to look better than his guests.
Graham is such a great interviewer. He doesn’t ask uncomfortable questions or make his guests feel awkward. It’s all about fun and it makes them open up much more ❤
Tbh he does show a lot of embarrassing photos of his guests (which are out there anyway) and elicit a lot of embarrassing stories, but otherwise I agree.
Graham is the best. Without a doubt, completely the best. He’s beyond good, beyond great. I love that he’s a real person, he’s warm, he’s funny as hell, and he can say the things that are needed, human things, real things. I respect him so much.❤️
The fact Graham has genuine global superstars on time after time is testament to the show. It's always a great mix of current A Listers and national treasures. I genuinely believe as well the guests actually enjoy it as it is often so bonkers !
I'm damn sure these big Hollywood celebs when they come to the UK as part of their world wide press tours are actually excited and relieved when a GN show appearance is a part of it, as it would definitely break the monotony for them from the usual chat shows and press junkets that ask the same questions, and plus the entire episode isn't on them having to answer questions, they also get to sit back and chill and listen to other people's stories who they may not have even met before.
He really is in a class of his own. I can imagine most of his guests leaving at the end of the show thinking damn that was the best time I ever had doing this. It makes perfect sense to me why so many keep coming back again and again.

Too few compliments are paid to the designer of Graham's set. The vibrant, passion-rich colours, and especially the reflective surfaces, make for a very active evening atmosphere.
@Hahhah0 - Not sure how you jumped straight to the assumption that it would be sexual assault... Sounds as if your political agenda is erasing your sense of humour.
No talk show surpasses The Graham Norton Show! Nobody else creates truly entertaining talk shows! Loving Graham, all his guests and the connection Graham creates amongst guests and audience! Love it!
Matt Damon is smart, great actor, good looking, and has a great sense of humor. And also appears to be a nice man as I haven’t heard of any personal flaws like cheating etc.. that are very common in Hollywood. His wife, kids, parents must be proud of him
@@deathbeforedecaf7755 Conan is on the spectrum. Neither funny nor intelligent and with zero class 😆. He probably just appeals to you cause you're just as slow and unfunny 😂
This isn't a talk show this feels like highschool friends meeting up again and talking about what had gone off in their lives after highschool and college,while also reminiscing in the embarrassing times together. That's what it feels like to me. Whenever I get bored I watch these ans they make me smile without fail.
I just realized, Graham Norton and his staff research every last detail of all the guests that come. They do a lot of hardwork💜 The detailed information he gives is amazing! It makes it more fun!
Graham Norton is probably the best talk show host in history. His ability to make three guests gel together and laugh at themselves is unsurpassed. Gay Byrne from RTE in Ireland was amazing. Norton is all that and more.
English talk shows are just more relaxed and don't make whatever they're there to plug be the be all and end all of the interview. Think American shows have every second of the show practiced and rehearsed with long lists of what is or isn't ok to talk about. This takes all the fun out of it.
“British” talk shows, I swear people’s geography in other countries is pants! The United Kingdom consists of 4 SEPARATE countries, the others being Wales, Scotland & Northern Ireland. Also Graham is Irish ffs!🙄🤬
@@elliequinn6660 I think many of my fellow Americans came to believe that Britain is England because of the same reason America refers to the US. GB is referring to the island, but England is the most powerful in the island, so the island's name applies to England. Substitute island for continent and you have the same thing going on with America. I do wish my people would take the ten seconds it takes to understand the difference between GB, UK, England, and the British Isles, but you can't make people care about stuff
What separates the greats, such as Norton or Craig Ferguson, is that they are actors and not just sketch comics or standup comedians, so they create moments for the guests to shine without looking for a killer punchline or throwing to some pre-recorded gag bit in which they star.
I love watching this show. Graham is a fantastic host, who really enjoys seeing his guests relax and have a good time. We get a glimpse of their real personalities when they're having fun and interacting with each other, and Graham is such a nice guy, happy to let them loose 😄 ☘🍾
This is arguably the finest ever edition of The Graham Norton Show; (The one with Matt Damon, Hugh-Bon and Bill Murray. That’s why it’s the most fun Matt had ever had on a talk show.
Graham is the best.. it's what the American ones try to be. Guest actually sit, finish their thoughts and talk to each other. Instead of the rehearsed lines.
I've lived through all the classic talk-show hosts, going back to Parkinson, and Graham Norton is by far the best, in my 'umble opinion - he's natural, and knows just when, and what, to interject. Always a pleasure.
IF I was ever to forget the rest of Graham Norton's shows - I will always remember what Matt Damon said at the end there ~ it's the biggest possible compliment to Mr Norton from a very fine & funny young man.
Graham is very tenacious with his humour and very relaxed style in interviews. I Remember this guy in father Ted. Irish humour is hilarious. Nobody feels too uncomfortable on his show and UK gets away with more This show has been running since i was a kid!
One of the biggest reasons graham norton is more enjoyable than fallon and kimmel is because there are always more than one guests on graham, so its not like the host and the single guest are talking back and forth,its more like a lot of people hanging out together.
Graham Norton is superb & is very good at keeping the topic of politics at bay, making his show much more enjoyable than American shows overall. His guests genuinely seem to be having a great time!
He's good however Howard stern has the best interviews. He asks good questions and makes guests feel like they're just having a private conversation so they wind up revealing alot of stuff
Love ur show. This episode Ive watched at least 50 times. Bill Murray's laughs are so genuine & the entire show had such a positive vibe. Always cheers me up when I'm down.
"This is literally like the Milgram experiment!" Okay, but casual references to science experiments, though? Dude just earned extra respect in my book.
Yeah my boy is wicked smARt but seriously he is one of the smartest actors of his generation where many actors get that stereotype of being an airhead and just reading lines Damon’s also a writer and attended Harvard and you can just hear it when he does interviews he knows what he’s talking about and he’s a more than competent individual
It takes an amazing talent to bring multiple celebrities together, often from different countries, and make it work so seamlessly, and hilariously. Norton and Johnny Carson are probably the two best talk show hosts in history.
These kind of shows are better than other ones who just do boring straight interviews. It's great for both entertainers and fans to all join in and have a laugh together.
this isn't even a talk show anymore it's a mini party where celebrities come and hang out with graham and we all chill together
ruoweii and I am here for it
Its always been that way and it's the best way to interview
like those dinner parties when you're waiting for the food to be done so you booze up and hang
@@AW-ex8fn and you end up having dinner at 11 p.m.

This is the best talk show right now. Reasons for those:
1. Liquor
2. Guests interact
3. No censorship
4. Host is actually witty and funny.

What is so great about Graham is that he never rushes his guests. Just love him!
Too few compliments are paid to the designer of Graham's set. The vibrant, passion-rich colours, and especially the reflective surfaces, make for a very active evening atmosphere.
"Matt, I will use your ponytail to steer while you dine upon my lady sandwich.". Wow was _the_ appropriate response. *wow*
What it means?
@Hahhah0 don't tell me that I'm not the one who said it I was explaining what it meant
@Hahhah0 Nope consensual sex
Jay Laing lol
@Hahhah0 - Not sure how you jumped straight to the assumption that it would be sexual assault... Sounds as if your political agenda is erasing your sense of humour.
No talk show surpasses The Graham Norton Show! Nobody else creates truly entertaining talk shows! Loving Graham, all his guests and the connection Graham creates amongst guests and audience! Love it!
Seriously! Graham is just so silly and fun!
Matt Damon’s smile is so genuine and sincere. I love that guy.
Matt Damon is smart, great actor, good looking, and has a great sense of humor. And also appears to be a nice man as I haven’t heard of any personal flaws like cheating etc.. that are very common in Hollywood. His wife, kids, parents must be proud of him
There’s no better host than Graham Norton. He’s HILARIOUS and a genius! I love his quick wit and the natural flow of it all
He is such a nice person!
I love the fact Matt Damon just comes across like a down to earth guy rather than as a “celebrity “
Most of them probably are they are still only people remember
The “James Bourne and Jason Bond” mixup was very sharp
I love Matt. He is just so down-to-earth. He seems not to think anything about himself. Really a mature guy. Thanks for that.
The interview of The Monuments Men is probably the best Graham interview ever.
I love Matt Damon, he's such an underrated actor.
underrated?! he's in every other movie!
Perhaps more understated than underrated. He has the star talent and movie draw, but without the star ego.
Intan Mawarni wtf Matt Damon is regarded as one of the best actors of all time. He’s not underrated.
He’s even got an Oscar ... ONLY an Oscar?!? so underrated...
I think it’s the best time all of Graham’s guests have ever had on a talk show. He is the best!
My favourite actor Matt Damon. Incredible talent❤
I really like Matt Damon he seems so down-to-earth and mega cool I'd totally have a beer with that man

Graham is the best talk show host right now!

Conan O Brien is funnier and more intelligent
No he isn't.
+watertownnative you are irrelevant and have been weighed, measured and found wanting..an average mute pedestrian TTVOMJ
@@deathbeforedecaf7755 Conan is on the spectrum. Neither funny nor intelligent and with zero class 😆. He probably just appeals to you cause you're just as slow and unfunny 😂
This isn't a talk show this feels like highschool friends meeting up again and talking about what had gone off in their lives after highschool and college,while also reminiscing in the embarrassing times together. That's what it feels like to me. Whenever I get bored I watch these ans they make me smile without fail.
Graham is great, he makes friends with his guests and it’s genuine.
I just realized, Graham Norton and his staff research every last detail of all the guests that come. They do a lot of hardwork💜 The detailed information he gives is amazing! It makes it more fun!
Graham Norton is probably the best talk show host in history. His ability to make three guests gel together and laugh at themselves is unsurpassed.
Gay Byrne from RTE in Ireland was amazing. Norton is all that and more.
Graham Norton is my favorite interviewer. Seems like he is having fun and everyone else is vibing off of it.
The last clip, "this is the best time I've ever had on a talk show", is so sweet. It just melts my heart every time they use it.
English talk shows are just more relaxed and don't make whatever they're there to plug be the be all and end all of the interview. Think American shows have every second of the show practiced and rehearsed with long lists of what is or isn't ok to talk about. This takes all the fun out of it.
Yeah, there's a certain tension that American shows have that I'm not sensing here. You win this battle, Brits
He’s Irish lmao
“British” talk shows, I swear people’s geography in other countries is pants! The United Kingdom consists of 4 SEPARATE countries, the others being Wales, Scotland & Northern Ireland. Also Graham is Irish ffs!🙄🤬
@@welshbird2363 yeah and America’s get confused when we don’t know all their states but they don’t know that England isn’t Britain lmao
@@elliequinn6660 I think many of my fellow Americans came to believe that Britain is England because of the same reason America refers to the US. GB is referring to the island, but England is the most powerful in the island, so the island's name applies to England. Substitute island for continent and you have the same thing going on with America. I do wish my people would take the ten seconds it takes to understand the difference between GB, UK, England, and the British Isles, but you can't make people care about stuff
What separates the greats, such as Norton or Craig Ferguson, is that they are actors and not just sketch comics or standup comedians, so they create moments for the guests to shine without looking for a killer punchline or throwing to some pre-recorded gag bit in which they star.
What a great actor. Matt has given us some great movies. Also a lovely host on the show. He has a nice way of talking and expressing himself.
*"Loser"* - Jimmy Kimmel
it would be even better if the official Jimmy Kimmel YT account responded to this xD xx
Spirited Gal hey I am a subscriber to your channel and I love your videos💟 I like graham too.😁
Aah, thank you for watching
"Human trash can Matt Damon"
This is the most fun I've ever had watching a talk show. Nothing comes close. Absolute brilliance.
“I’ve never seen this colour before and now I see it on 3 men at once” 😂😂👍🏻
" have a go at Matt day "
I love watching this show. Graham is a fantastic host, who really enjoys seeing his guests relax and have a good time. We get a glimpse of their real personalities when they're having fun and interacting with each other, and Graham is such a nice guy, happy to let them loose 😄 ☘🍾
I'd say Matt Damon is a very genuine person. No notions about himself, just so sweet.
This is arguably the finest ever edition of The Graham Norton Show; (The one with Matt Damon, Hugh-Bon and Bill Murray. That’s why it’s the most fun Matt had ever had on a talk show.
A talk show host not attacking the guests? Wtf since when
or bringing up politics and Trump whenever possible? oh wait, Graham isnt American, thats why
GenericUsername Irish
What talk show hosts attack their guests?
Since hes Irish which means being a pissshead is in his dna which means he knows how to throw hangouts that get people to talk.
Michael McDonald ever heard of jimmy fallon
Graham is the best.. it's what the American ones try to be. Guest actually sit, finish their thoughts and talk to each other. Instead of the rehearsed lines.
Matt Damon saying its " the most fun I've ever had on a talkshow " is so great !
The video title says that too but if you go to 6:40, you'll hear what Matt REALLY says.
6:40
Matt Damon: "This is the Most Fun I've Ever Had on a Talk Show"
Thank you
How humble and cool Matt Damon is.i m big fan of him
I've lived through all the classic talk-show hosts, going back to Parkinson, and Graham Norton is by far the best, in my 'umble opinion - he's natural, and knows just when, and what, to interject. Always a pleasure.
IF I was ever to forget the rest of Graham Norton's shows - I will always remember what Matt Damon said at the end there ~ it's the biggest possible compliment to Mr Norton from a very fine & funny young man.
true
He's 50 plus... Young...?
@@tariqmalik1177 It all depends on your perspective, some of us are VERY old.LOL
@@26faraway a lesson I will be sure to remember. I hope to be blessed with very old age one day
Graham is very tenacious with his humour and very relaxed style in interviews. I Remember this guy in father Ted. Irish humour is hilarious. Nobody feels too uncomfortable on his show and UK gets away with more
This show has been running since i was a kid!
So many great shows. Really enjoy the ones with Matt Damon on. You can see it's always a joy for him to be there.
Graham Norton is incredible, and sometimes he really doesn't get the credit he deserves
One of the biggest reasons graham norton is more enjoyable than fallon and kimmel is because there are always more than one guests on graham, so its not like the host and the single guest are talking back and forth,its more like a lot of people hanging out together.
15 thumbs down.
14 from Jimmy Kimmel
1 from Guillermo
Anindya Tejomartoyo 😂😂😂😂😂
Guillermo 😂😂😂😂😂
So this babyface is older than Ben Affleck.
Ikr...
I was shocked too
Well Affleck does smoke.
He would make a better Batman as well
Matt hasn't been to rehab...3 times.
I broke my toe feel depressed. This is the best show ever!!! It always makes me feel better. Thank you so much!!!!
Graham Norton is superb & is very good at keeping the topic of politics at bay, making his show much more enjoyable than American shows overall. His guests genuinely seem to be having a great time!
This is one if not the only favorite talk show. It's just sit back, laugh and enjoy!❤🙏💜
Grahama is the best interviewer in the whole world
Ons Kasraoui He puts everyone at ease. Such a lovely guy.
He's good however Howard stern has the best interviews. He asks good questions and makes guests feel like they're just having a private conversation so they wind up revealing alot of stuff
@@KellerCRD I know I'm really late to this convo but have you seen the Howard Stern interview with Harry Styles. It's painful to watch.
Love ur show. This episode Ive watched at least 50 times. Bill Murray's laughs are so genuine & the entire show had such a positive vibe. Always cheers me up when I'm down.
"This is literally like the Milgram experiment!" Okay, but casual references to science experiments, though? Dude just earned extra respect in my book.
I mean... it's one of the (if not THE) best known experiments ever.
Yeah my boy is wicked smARt but seriously he is one of the smartest actors of his generation where many actors get that stereotype of being an airhead and just reading lines Damon’s also a writer and attended Harvard and you can just hear it when he does interviews he knows what he’s talking about and he’s a more than competent individual
The guy went to Harvard, he isn’t the average celebrity
Y’all are acting as if you didn’t go to Harvard it’s completely implausible to even have heard of the Milgram experiment lmfaooo
@@brandontydings865 Matt Damon has the same IQ as Einstein and Hawking.
Matt Damon is such a nice guy for giving Graham the complement he deserves!! The only talk show where im not getting annoyed by host
The best talk show host ever.
It takes an amazing talent to bring multiple celebrities together, often from different countries, and make it work so seamlessly, and hilariously. Norton and Johnny Carson are probably the two best talk show hosts in history.
James Bourne is probably sitting at home like "Matt Damon said my name!!!" (The guy from Busted)
Is he the bald old guy?
adad nah he’s got blonde hair Matt Willis has a shaved head
These kind of shows are better than other ones who just do boring straight interviews. It's great for both entertainers and fans to all join in and have a laugh together.
4:20 I´ve never even seen this color, and now I see it on three men at once.
This left me in stitches.
And near the end, out of nowhere, there's Paloma Faith sitting next to Matt Damon. I didn't think the video could get any more perfect.
Perfect example of how UK chat show hosts are the best in my opinion.
And Irish born UK chat show hosts are the best. 😁
@@EileanoirDaly saddd
Graham is not from the UK
This show is 100% unrivalled.
