Corden is a talent worth watching for his sheer likability, musical and comedy talent, and genuine love of culture, pop and otherwise. He’s bending the late-night comedy show formula to fit his skill set, which given this first outing, is impressive. Read full review

Corden clearly appears to have the goods.... Most importantly, he has an obvious ability to perform bits that'll hold up in the cold light of dawn, or more specifically on the Internet. Read full review

It was an undeniably endearing, energetic and star-studded hour of television. Read full review

There’s definitely something Fallonized about the new Late Late Show, not necessarily in a bad way at all.... The device of bringing both Hanks and Mila Kunis on at once cocktail-party style is promising, but we’ll see if it works with a wider range of guests.... Other elements of the show are embryonic. Musician-comedian Reggie Watts was an inspired choice for bandleader, and let’s hope the show gives him an active role. Read full review

The Daily Beast Kevin Fallon

Mar 24, 2015

For all that he would shamelessly borrow from them across the hour, he seemed markedly different from that pack he’s lumped in with. In fact, he was even refreshing. Read full review

June Thomas

Mar 24, 2015

The show relied heavily on pre-taped sketches: First came an overlong, cameo-heavy bit about Corden’s unlikely path to the late-night lineup.... Corden bears an odd resemblance to a golden retriever—friendly, approachable, and desperately eager to please. Read full review

Corden is inoffensive and upbeat, so it’s hard to hate him, but it’s hard to imagine him building a dedicated following, either. Unlike Ferguson, who made his little corner of late night into something unique, Corden is just marking time until viewers fall asleep. Read full review

James Corden is not only funny, but he's absolute genius ! I will stay up until 11:35PM just to watch
the monologue and have RARELY not found it funny.

James Corden You are so funny! Love the show... love the interviews... and more over, how refreshing it is for an interviewer to ask open questions... (without answering for them)... My family and I belly laughed at your One Direction and JB sketch.. Keep up the good work!

What I like about the show is James is trying something that has long been missing from late night tv: sincerity and talent. Like Johnny, way way before him, he strives to make room for the guests to be the highlight of the show. He doesn't come with that comedian's need to be on top at all times.

At the begining i enjoyed it and i could n't wait to watch the next episode, however i am starting to get sick of his schizophrenic ways of hosting the show... way too much compliments to the guests, trying to be on the right sides of things ,etc. and i can't put my finger on in what it is with the show that it's running thin . i guess, that piece of dancing in the middle of the street (Grease) was my breaking point . It was way too long and ridiculous . I guess, i am going to hang in there until Colbert comes along. I truly miss Craig Ferguson , Geoff and Secretariat...but i guess they are busy solving crimes. :D… Expand

I LOVE Craig Ferguson! I couldn't bring myself to watch James Corden. However now, the Colbert Show over & Corden comes on. He is overweight, and standing there holding his hands together like he needs the bathroom. It sickens me that he got a studio makeover, is getting advertised & CBSI LOVE Craig Ferguson! I couldn't bring myself to watch James Corden. However now, the Colbert Show over & Corden comes on. He is overweight, and standing there holding his hands together like he needs the bathroom. It sickens me that he got a studio makeover, is getting advertised & CBS promotes him. I have tried, but I can't watch him without thinking he looks uncomfortable being so heavy. I cant make it thru a show. His carpool karaoke is a good idea depending on his guest. Cordon panders to his guests, &while he may be sincere, he isn't funny.
Trevor Noah is fantastic replacing John Stewart, with his own brand of humor. James Corden unfortunately just makes me miss Craig Ferguson more.… Expand

The Late Late Show with James Corden is a mediocre attempt at copying Graham Norton. As a huge fan of Craig Ferguson, I am appalled by this show. This is a **** version of Graham Norton, with a bit of Jimmy Fallon thrown in to appeal to Americans, because Americans love post-SNL Fallon forThe Late Late Show with James Corden is a mediocre attempt at copying Graham Norton. As a huge fan of Craig Ferguson, I am appalled by this show. This is a **** version of Graham Norton, with a bit of Jimmy Fallon thrown in to appeal to Americans, because Americans love post-SNL Fallon for some reason. Everything he says to the guests sounds heavily scripted and extremely fake. I miss Craig ripping up the interview cards every episode. Overall, awful.… Expand
