    I'm quite enjoying it. He needs to tone it down a little bit and focus more on the guests but it's lighthearted enough.

    I actually like this, its not often I can say I like him. I think this could work as a 40min 3 nights aweek chat show.

    BIB, i think thats the trouble, he isnt connecting with the guests, he just wants to try and say something funny instead of letting them speak

    Christ! Is he going to let his guests get a single word in edgeways?

    No point them being there.

    I like the man I think he's funny, but play to your strengths please. Stick to the Apollo and arenas and let the professionals (Ross, Norton etc) do the talk shows. I'd like to see McIntyre take on a sofa full of A-list Hollywood stars a la Norton. He would be buried alive.

    Then cut to clips and pictures and there is no time for the guest to say anything.

    This is nothing more than The Michael McIntyre Show, with some guests popping in.

    It's not a chat show!

    Norton himself gets buried alive. Dude is just way too camp and like McIntyre today has to resort to humiliating random ass guests for some cheap laughs. Whilst Norton geuinely finds the chair thing hilarious like some kind of child, you can tell his guests are laughing at the stupidity of the whole thing.

    Jonahan Ross' original bbc show was easily the best out of the three. Best i can say about Norton is that he isn't as dreadful as McIntyre today.

    i suppose it is. Michael McIntyre is a celebrity and he is talking informally about various topics, while the celebrities look on bemused. ;-)

    An equally poor lineup next week, I think I'll pass. I'd welcome a genuine, in-depth Parkinson-meets-Hard Talk style talk show, this one is just feeble and redundant.

    He did! oops....haha was Michael supposed to mention the next series of the Apprentice coming soon? :D He was like an over-excitable puppy and the show was like a sit down, stand up, but an entertaining half hour nevertheless!

    Yes, it is.

    The 'celebrities' didn't get time to talk about one topic leave alone 'various' ones.

    So no it isn't!

    Norton doesn't get 'buried alive'. He sits back once he's initiated the topic of conversation and let's the guests talk to him and each other and relax - that's why he gets the best interviews out of them.

    Jonathan Ross spent far too much time talking over his guests about himself. Not to mention resorting to crude humour when feeling he was losing the audience.

    I like Michael McIntyre and the show was quite entertaining, but I don't think he's that suited to it and looks very worried, which doesn't give a relaxed feeling to the show. If he calms down a bit it could be quite a good little show, but he MUST STOP SHOUTING!!!!!!!!

    Yes they did, you're just choosing to pretend they didn't because you didn't enjoy it. How much they spoke is irrelevant. They did speak about various topics. It was a chat show. That simply cannot be argued.

    Really makes you wish you were watching Graham Norton, Jonathan Ross or Paul O'Grady instead. Whatever you may think of them they sure do effortlessly hold a chat show together single-handedly with natural easy going charm and quick-wit.

    With this show we're closer to 'Davina' territory http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0497854/ ^_^ Hahahahahaha

    I would even go as far to say that The Alan Titchmarsh Show is more bearable than this. :o haha

    He (Sugar) does them because he probably enjoys having the likes of McIntyre simpering around him, generally massaging his massive ego.

    Oh my! You are one of those.

    I thought it was awful, and I like McIntyre in standup. Lily Allen got it right when she said they could probably have got a show out of the Mobile phone gag, it was the best thing in it.
    The chat with Terry Wogan just about worked, but he's the ultimate professional. After that it was embarrassingly poor.
