'''The Steve Show''' is the unofficial name for [[Stephen Merchant|Steve]]'s new show on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC_6_Music BBC 6 Music], which started in January 2007. He is joined by his friends [[Dan Warren|Dan]], [[Harry]], and occasionally [[Rufus Wright|Rufus]] who are, in the best possible sense, nobodies. The show is more music based than the [[Xfm Shows]], although there is still banter, and we see the return of features that were first seen in the Xfm years, such as  [[Hip-Hop Hooray]] and Cover Cover Man (formerly known as [[Cover Me Up]]). However, the show has introduced many of its own unique features such as [[Songs to Seduce Women By]] and 'The Fiendishly Difficult Music Question'.

===Episode 1===
'''The Steve Show''' was the unofficial name for [[Stephen Merchant|Steve]]'s show on [[BBC 6Music]], which ran from January 2007 to April 2009. In the show, Steve was joined by long-time friends [[Dan Warren|Dan]], [[Harry]], and [[Rufus Wright|Rufus]] who were, in the best possible sense, nobodies. The show focused on music more than banter but was not without its comedic and anecdotal elements.  Steve brought some old [[Xfm]] features into his show, including [[Hip-Hop Hooray]] and [[Mr. Cover Cover]] (formerly known as [[Cover Me Up]] on Xfm). The show also introduced many of its own unique features such as '[[Songs to Seduce Women By]]','The Fiendishly Difficult Music Question', and 'Songs to Nurse a Broken Heart'.


:''[[14 January 2007|14th January 2007]]''
Due to its early "laddish" nature, Steve and his mates conducted a search for a "[[She-J]]" in the spring of 2007, accepting tapes and mp3s from women wanting to join them regularly in the studio.  Ultimately Steve and his mates selected [[Sammy]] who quickly became an essential part of the team.


Introductions all round, as we are welcomed to Steve's mates. We get to see the return of a couple of old features and a new one where Dan and Harry's musical tastes are pitted against each other. Also, Steve's mate Dave calls, on his way to walk from Land's End to John O' Groats for no particular reason. <br> This weeks '''Mr Cover Cover''' is ''Love The One You're With'' by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Isley_Brothers The Isley Brothers]
On April 2009, Steve announced the end of '''The Steve Show''', saying they had no further plans for a show on 6Music and citing the need for a break in order to work on a movie ([[Cemetery Junction]]) with partner Ricky Gervais. The 6Music bids him a fond farewell on their site: "Our man's off to glamorous tinseltown, where the Hollywood execs will puzzle over what on earth he's talking about with that Brizzle accent! Bon voyage, Stephen, see you at 6 Music again soon...remember, we understand you!".

This week's show was pre-recorded which Steve thinks takes some of the energy out of the show - and it's hard to disagree really.

The goggle-eyed freak finally got his own show

This article refers to The Steve Show. For the radio shows that Karl Pilkington did with Russell Brand, see 6Music Shows.

The Steve Show was the unofficial name for Steve's show on BBC 6Music, which ran from January 2007 to April 2009. In the show, Steve was joined by long-time friends Dan, Harry, and Rufus who were, in the best possible sense, nobodies. The show focused on music more than banter but was not without its comedic and anecdotal elements. Steve brought some old Xfm features into his show, including Hip-Hop Hooray and Mr. Cover Cover (formerly known as Cover Me Up on Xfm). The show also introduced many of its own unique features such as 'Songs to Seduce Women By','The Fiendishly Difficult Music Question', and 'Songs to Nurse a Broken Heart'.

Due to its early "laddish" nature, Steve and his mates conducted a search for a "She-J" in the spring of 2007, accepting tapes and mp3s from women wanting to join them regularly in the studio. Ultimately Steve and his mates selected Sammy who quickly became an essential part of the team.

On April 2009, Steve announced the end of The Steve Show, saying they had no further plans for a show on 6Music and citing the need for a break in order to work on a movie (Cemetery Junction) with partner Ricky Gervais. The 6Music bids him a fond farewell on their site: "Our man's off to glamorous tinseltown, where the Hollywood execs will puzzle over what on earth he's talking about with that Brizzle accent! Bon voyage, Stephen, see you at 6 Music again soon...remember, we understand you!".
