BBC-A TONIGHT: Martin Sheen Endorses Obama on Graham Norton Show
Don't forget to watch BBC-A TONIGHT: Martin Sheen Endorses Obama on Graham Norton Show.
From a BBC Press Release Link on BBC-America:
Now back to the news. Here's the video:
The Graham Norton Show - Episode 2 24/04/08
Can't you just imagine her dismissive response? "An imaginary president endorses an imaginary candidate. Fitting."
LOL.
Will.ia.am is also one of the other guests, so I thought I'd add the video of his performance from the show as well for those who won't get to see tonight's episode:
From a BBC Press Release Link on BBC-America:
The Graham Norton Show episode with Martin Sheen, comedian Ed Byrne and musical guests Will.i.am and Cheryl Cole will premiere on Saturday, May 3, 10:00 p.m. ET/PT on BBC AMERICA.(Tony looks terrible btw, but when he could remember, told a good story. Kevin was funny, especially when he got Graham to go find the YouTube video some guy made of him that started out nice but ended up with a stick figure of Kevin get it from behind from the guy who made the video. Very funny. Unfortunately, Youtube removed the video already otherwise I would include it).
The Brit talk show kicks off its third season on BBC AMERICA this Saturday, April 26, 10:00 p.m. ET/PT with Tony Curtis, Kevin Bacon and musical guest Robyn. Graham Norton takes the audience and celebrity guests one step further than other talk shows dare and this season continues that tradition.
Now back to the news. Here's the video:
The Graham Norton Show - Episode 2 24/04/08
Martin Sheen - “It’s unfortunate that they’re beating each other up. I haven’t made a proper claim, maybe I should do it here, I’m an Obama supporter. But you mustn’t reveal it yet, Bill Clinton loved the West Wing and he still calls me his President, so I have to be careful for just a while longer.”
Guest comedian Ed Byrne - “I’m afraid that you’ve done it.”[my emphasis]
Martin Sheen - “I’ve done it. I still think the Democrats will win. No matter which one of them comes in, the country’s ready for a change, we’ve had it. It’s just been a disaster.”
Graham Norton - “Even from a distance, we’ve noticed.”
Can't you just imagine her dismissive response? "An imaginary president endorses an imaginary candidate. Fitting."
LOL.
Will.ia.am is also one of the other guests, so I thought I'd add the video of his performance from the show as well for those who won't get to see tonight's episode:

I don't know, isn't a Martin Sheen endorsement about on a par with a Michael Moore endorsement? Will it help or hurt Obama? I don't watch TV so I have no sense of how popular Sheen is, but doesn't he have a reputation as a radical left-winger? (Which to me isn't pejorative but is to many.)

Nah. I don't think so, anyway. I know a lot of Republicans who like him.

I think most watching BBC America , especially a talk show with an openly gay host,are more than likely an Obama supporters anyhow so I'd
say it's okay!
I can't envision many conservatives watching!

Well, shoot fire, if you're going to watch BBC-A tonight tune in an hour earlier and watch "Robin Hood" before hand. It's one of the funnest shows on tv; action, adventure, sword fighting, romance, robbing the rich, fascistic government and dammit, they do good puns! Or tune in two hours earlier and watch the Season 2 premiere first. I love that silly show.Or, they replay both hours immediately following Graham, who is a riot, BTW.
