THE GRAHAM NORTON SHOW
April 19, 2014  | By David Bianculli

BBC America, 11:00 p.m. ET

 

I’m not pleased that BBC has pushed this series back to 11 p.m. ET for its new season – Season 15, an impressive run indeed – because, each week, Graham Norton always seems to provide a talk-show moment that’s laugh-out-loud entertaining. He doesn’t do musical bits or viral videos, he just talks with his guests, and gets them to react, or otherwise reveal themselves, in ways that other talk hosts never even attempt to approach. Tonight’s case in point: In an installment built around The Amazing Spider-Man 2 stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, and Jamie Foxx, Norton works Stone into near apoplexy by suggesting that he might have hidden in the wings one, or more, of Stone’s absolute childhood idols: The Spice Girls.
