10 ‘Late Late Show With James Corden’ Moments That Actually Didn’t Suck
After eight years of celebrity singalongs, musical reenactments, and a million truth-or-dare-style segments with the Kardashians, The Late Late Show with James Corden is saying goodbye.
Despite its viral success—particularly for the Emmy-winning Carpool Karaoke segment—many people aren’t exactly mourning the end of the late-night program. Although rumors that British boy band One Direction could be reuniting for the final episode, airing tonight, have made an otherwise somber event a reason to celebrate.
It goes without saying that Corden is not a particularly well-liked individual, at least on social media (notwithstanding YouTube, where the Late Late Show’s games and sketches still reign supreme). Upon taking over the show from funnier British person Craig Ferguson (sorry!) in 2015, Corden quickly earned a reputation for being, well, not as sharp or charismatic as the rest of his late-night counterparts (I’m even including that constantly wheezing animatronic known as Jimmy Fallon).
