The JR show used to be THE premier chat show in the UK with really high profile celebs sitting on the couch. Unfortunately those days are long gone and for the last few years it's just come across as a poor man's Graham Norton show. Whomever is booking the guests for the JR show really needs to start making more of an effort as these days it's mainly just a conveyor belt of dull, uninteresting C list celebs with a VERY occasional big star. Contrast that with GN who seems to pull in multiple Hollywood A list megastars on a weekly basis. For example, GN this week had Jason Momoa, Emilia Clarke, Regina and Camila Cabello (and that's that not even a big week) whereas JR has three people from Strictly Come Dancing, one member of One Direction (remember when they were a thing), a not very well known UK comedian and somebody from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy who I have literally never heard of. Seriously ITV, start making more of an effort with this show or else put it out to pasture as at this point it's just getting embarrassing.
