really late reply to you.....and maybe you know this..... .but usually talk shows tell the guests about which Stories they can narrate. any interesting quirky stuff. American talk shows usually have a pre-interview where they rehearse how the conversation will flow. watch this - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZbmEjz9t0AE.html Now, what I think according to me, Graham Norton show DOES discuss the stories that the celebs can tell...but also packs some unexpected surprises. The other guests from different film also create a sense of unpredictability...as they may ask and start talking among themselves....and Norton never interrupts. And also....loads of booze....which helps keep the flow of conversation And then there's Craig Ferguson who just tears all the prepared question paper. Because he showed it as natural as he could. And he loved a little bit of awkwardness. I think you can watch that interview between him and Gillian Jacobs where she literally has to think of some good story that happened to her and suddenly she does surprise him with a good one.
Tom Hanks was on Letterman several years ago and told the story of when he was walking his dogs at night and they came upon a couple of skunks. He has excellent story telling skills.
In the movie, Tom is on the right, and he was driving that day, so from the viewpoint of the guy on the bus, they were in the same framing! The auto windscreen the Proscenium!
Now, speaking to our friends in England who occasionally host Tom Hanks on the Graham Norton Show. Please remember he is ours, he's an American, and we loan him sometimes to make y'all feel good. Handle with care and return to sender, please. We know you don't have the history with him that we do, but he is a treasure, we love him, and don't get too possessive of him. Thank you.
@David Roberts Nah man. I meant he can make a simple conversation very interesting and engaging just by the way he says things, either by the contents and/or physical expressions.
I have a "coincidence" story re an actor. In 1986, I lived in the greater LA area. One Sunday, I decided to go to an afternoon movie and saw "Man, Woman, and Child", a film with Martin Sheen. On my way home, I stopped at a McDonald's, went in, and standing in line about 2 people in front of me, I recognized MARTIN SHEEN, also in line to get food. It was bizarre having just seen him HUGE on the movie screen and now seeing him in person less than an hour later. And, there he was, just standing in line at McD's, just like the rest of us.
I kinda had that moment when I moved to LA. I had just finished bingeing Sarah Connor chronicles. I was walking to get lunch and thinking about how much I like the show when I ran into Summer Glau walking her dog on the sidewalk. I just couldn't process that real-life encounter after 3 days of watching the show. No, I did not talk with her, there's a rule here with stars. Don't disturb them in there day to day activities, it's rude. Just let them have their space. I did nod and smile but kept walking.
anmllvr19 I love him but he annoyed me at the Golden Globes this year. Acting offended over some stupid jokes. So maybe your friend could see something we could not.
anmllvr19 I would agree if he had only made one weird face. At first, I, too, thought he was just reacting funny. But then he did it again a couple of times. Finally at the end of Ricky’s monologue he had an undeniably offended expression. By then he knew the camera kept coming back to him (the celebrities know when the camera is on them) so he knew what he was doing when he was “acting” offended. He wanted it to be known that he found it offensive. I found it disappointing. He does not need to be offended on the behalf of privileged celebrities.
They butchered the series on DVD by removing Billy Joel's title song and editing out some songs that were used in the series, and editing out some material deemed inappropriate. REALLY?

Guy tells his wife, ‘I was watching Sleepless in Seattle on the Bus 🚌 heading back home and guess who pulled up beside me and waved? Tom Hanks!.. Wife replies, ‘You’ve been smoking too much crack..’ 😂😂😎
