Couldn't agree more, have loved Graham since his days on Channel 4, I find he's toned himself down a bit as he's aged but who hasn't.

And Graham also gives them space to talk! And they tend to try to fill up that space, which is great for revealing things ha!

[@mark99k]

Another huge advantage in GN's show is that his guests (mostly) appear *together*, not sequentially, so they interact not just with the host but also with each other. As a result, some of the show's most endearing or hilarious moments come when guests of different ages, backgrounds, or career arcs interact with each other. No American talk shows do this anymore, and we're worse off for it.

@@stephanemignot100 Graham Norton is the GOAT at being the classic talk show host. Nobody is better at getting material out of his guests and directing the show. Craig Ferguson is a special case, because his show was very much an anti-talk show that parodied and lampooned talk show cliches - no pre-interview, question cards being ripped apart at the beginning of the interview, robot skeleton for a sidekick, no band, insults to the audience, constant self-deprication about the show, the fourth wall constantly being broken etc. Loved his show. I also think Conan is pretty good because of his ability to co-operate with his guests comedically.

[@221b-Maker-Street]

That format was created originally by _Sir Michael Parkinson_ - who many Brits would argue was the UK's finest talk show host _ever._ Michael (known affectionately as 'Parky') sadly died just two weeks ago and he set the bar for what talk show hosts should be. Never the star, always the facilitator - the unlocker - of conversation, candid stories, and occasionally even secrets. 🤍

Graham does as well, but he did turn to the audience more times, where Seth maintained active listening👍 As many have said, two great hosts. Also shout out to Seth for immediately calling out the awkwardness that Graham had as a guest rather than host, excellent strategy mate 👍

It shows why both are great at their job. Seth is there to host Graham and Graham is there to entertain the audience. It's something Fallon and Corden will likely never learn.

The one aspect that i appreciate with Graham is that he does a really good job of getting his guests to talk to each other. I used to get frustrated with hosts like Johnny Carson, who had guests, but each was interviewed for 5 minutes, and then pushed over to the couch, not to be heard from again, but still "there".

Thınk about ıt, the man lıterally buılt an entıre career just by beıng HİMSELF... I really hope to meet him ...or at least get to see him ...An absolute tresure.

[@LindaC616]

Coming into this hours late, I see that this is by far the happiest, most agreeable comments section I have ever seen on one of Seth's videos! Because everyone agrees that this man is an absolute Legend! They should have him host Saturday Night Live for sure!

[@SolarianRedmoon]

Whenever I´m studying for uni and I just can´t take it anymore, Graham´s show has always been there for me! I adore him

[@PowerDiva]

Graham is just so naturally entertaining.... even when he's not the one asking the questions

[@missbee431]

I ADORE Graham Norton. He is such an authentic delight!

[@dogtato]

true to form, graham mentioned not recognizing celebrities and got an embarrassing story in return

[@yournanna866]

Graham got me through the pandemic….I watch all his you tube shows…made me laugh out loud…

[@0hffs]

Miriam Margolyes is LIFE when she appears on his show!

[@mimikins7748]

She’s hysterical 😂😂😂

[@scottipippen6554]

When it comes to talk show hosts, he is the best in the last 20 years in my book. Watching his show is always entertaiment at his finest..- much love from Germany, the black whole of talk show hosts since Harald Schmidt letf tv..

[@Meena-hv4lq]

I absolutely love this man’s show! The Graham Norton show helped me get through the pandemic

[@redvelvetsexpiredicecream]

I love him so much, the only host who truly makes me laugh every single time, I really wish all the episodes of graham's show were on an accessible streaming platform, that would be so great.

[@jeanneratterman4174]

So fitting that Graham visits Seth’s show. Two of my favorite hosts. Good spirited hearts, great humor!

[@kazza6078]

I love LOVE this interview so far, it's like listening to a seminar on hosting a late night talk show. Such different ways to go about a similar idea

[@ashleybuffa7971]

Graham is such a rare gem 💎

[@evahorgan4638]

It’s great to see a fellow Irish/ Cork person doing so well. I didn’t realise he was famous in America and Canada. What are ye watching of him over there??.

[@franchk8372]

Graham Norton, the creme de la creme of show hosts. Nothing compares. So many witty, funny, entertaining and even enlightening shows. Tom Cruise .... oh my goodness, just the bees knees. Fantastic, fun movies ... especially the Mission Impossible series which I've watched a gazillion times.

[@gab.lab.martins]

There it is. The two best chat show hosts currently.

[@idalefreed7370]

Graham is THE BEST host, great charisma

[@Ok2BHuman]

I love everything about Graham Norton! Amazingly gifted talk show host and comic!

[@johnking5174]

2:20 - The Late Late Show in Ireland launched in July 1962 and is still running today. For 37 years it was hosted as Graham said by Irish broadcasting legend Gay Byrne from 1962 to 1999, he was Ireland's Johnny Carson. The show would attract nearly 80% of the Irish TV audience on a Friday night. It's start time is 9.35pm and runs for over 2 hours live. Not taped, 100% live from RTE Studios in Dublin.

Two of my "when you're on vacation, my life isn't worth living" late night talk show hosts. Graham Norton is a rare gem and I absolutely love his show. The caliber and the plethora of guests he has on are remarkable. He's so funny and very engaging. The guests can really open up and it gets rather salty at times which is great. Picture of him and RuPaul is hilarious because Ru obviously drinks from the "Dick Clarks Fountain of Youth" potion.

[@er8925]

I love that he mentions things about Ireland. He has never forgot where he came from. True gent!

[@jodyvollmer4125]

I LOVE GRAHAM!!!! great interview❤

[@sgouerec66]

Since I discovered Graham, it’s my favorite host. The best ever.

[@midtownjohn]

i love the format of his show . All the guests are together at one time interacting with each other .

[@rohanm54]

His show is really unique. It has smth that the American talk shows don’t have with the whole group interview setting.

[@thereisnosuchthingasabiasi80]

Loved this! We don't normally get to see Graham like this, so this was a treat!

[@eloisou8485]

Thanks youtube exists. Im french and discovered the Graham Norton Show as a teenager like 16 years old and im 30 now and looove him ever since, fantastic host

[@i.t.t.]

my absolute favourite talk show host (and show). interesting to see him as a guest always. thank you.

[@wanderingseth]

❤❤❤❤ this is the mash-up I didn't realise I needed. I feel like two universes have collided and I love it.

[@nancyharding5848]

I’ve gone down the Graham Norton rabbit hole on KZbin MANY times. So easy to watch him. Love his interview style. ❤ him!

[@taralynn7441]

I love Graham's laugh.

[@spennybullen2178]

I still laugh at his turn as Father Noel Furlong on 'Father Ted'.

[@seankeating8559]

Had the pleasure of meeting Graham when he came to watch a musical I was in at drama school. Lovely man and the best chat show host of all time imo.

[@heatherhopf8466]

I love seeing Graham be interviewed..it's awesome. What a lovely man.💗💗

[@GerthebearBrady.]

What a legend

[@alek2932]

This is the most perfect pairing on TV ever. Graham has been my all-time favorite for years while Seth is the best American talk show host ever. And both are great interviewers, it's just such a delight! This plus the trump/tucker/fox news - what a week *chefs kiss*
