Am I the only one that finds James Corden irritating?

Just that really. Never got him when he was here. Don't understand why the US do now. He has turned into David Brent.

No. I find him horrendously irritating.

JuicyCake · 07/06/2017 23:58

I've never actually seen him in TV. I just know of him & imagine that he might be annoying...

avamiah · 08/06/2017 00:03

I can't stand him , well that's a bit harsh as I don't know him, but you know what I mean, I hope.
He is very lucky to break into the US, how did he manage it that's what I have always wondered.?
On the back of what?

glitterglitters · 08/06/2017 00:04

There's a lot of "Brits done good" in the US that I'm like "Really? Them?!"

glitterglitters · 08/06/2017 00:05

@avamiah I can't see Gavin & Stacey translating well to the US either

avamiah · 08/06/2017 00:08

glitterglitters,
Absolutely.
I know he co wrote it but how did he get that job in US?

NeedATrim · 08/06/2017 00:08

I don't like him. He comes across as someone who failed to establish a serious music career but through his show, lives his dream. Does anyone get what I mean?

glitterglitters · 08/06/2017 00:09

I think it was his work on the Other Guys/Wrong Guys whatever it was called.

Forwardsforwards · 08/06/2017 00:10

Not my cup of tea at all. Am sure he's a nice guy but I can't see any discernible talent....

avamiah · 08/06/2017 00:10

NeedATrim,
I take it your referring to that car pool crap .
Or whatever it's called?

Notmyrealname85 · 08/06/2017 00:10

Think he once had a bust up on stage with Patrick Stewart? Came across as really really bitter - think he's like the sad clown...but not sad and just nasty

DonaldTrumpsTrump · 08/06/2017 00:11

Agreed, I said to OH earlier on funnily enough, when I noticed his show on the sky TV guide, that I can't fathom how someone as annoying as him managed to break the US!

glitterglitters · 08/06/2017 00:12

@Notmyrealname85 oooh I remember that! Tbh Patrick Stewart was a bit dismissive but he's fucking Patrick Stewart. He can do anything he wants in my book Grin

avamiah · 08/06/2017 00:12

What is that all about in a car?
And the crazy thing is they love it over there.
🤔

glitterglitters · 08/06/2017 00:13

Anybody remember him in that horrendous fake docusoap about a boy and? He was the "fat talented" one andcrgey covered D-I-S-C-O Grin

glitterglitters · 08/06/2017 00:13

And they covered*

LorLorr2 · 08/06/2017 00:13

Nobody in my family likes him! And yes we too think he tries to do Ricky Gervais' humour.

glitterglitters · 08/06/2017 00:14

Don't really rate Ricky Gervais much nowadays either if I'm totally honest.....

avamiah · 08/06/2017 00:16

He will be hosting the Oscars next year trust me.
That's what he is aiming for in my opinion?
Any thoughts???

GinSwigmore · 08/06/2017 00:17

I thought he landed it from his stage work fame, two guvnors thing.
Given he had the leads in the Paul Potts thing and a big part in Into the woods, his musical career isn't bloke from Have I met your mother/Hugh Jackman, but it's okay.
His car-aoke makes me smile. At least he has a better voice than Frank Skinner or write the theme tune Dennis Waterman.
He's relatively harmless. He can come over as a bit cocky/big ego and got pulled up for it years ago iirc but he doesn't irritate me as such, he's just not John Oliver.

GinSwigmore · 08/06/2017 00:20

Oscars? Yeah I could see that. Look, he won't be any worse than Ellen, Jimmy Kimmel or pains me to say it, Jon Stewart.

avamiah · 08/06/2017 00:21

Omg Ellen what was she like hosting the Oscars.😬,
I can't bloody stand her.
She is so set up .

Terfing · 08/06/2017 00:27

The Americans happily had Piers Morgan for a while too... Confused

Don't remember many of these but Franco/Hathaway were awful.
I am not fond of Ricky Gervais but he knows how to do an awards ceremony, they just won't let him insult everyone at the Oscars.
Tina Fey/Amy P would be good.
James Corden would do the Hugh Jackman/Neil Patrick Harris route. "He's singing again"

avamiah · 08/06/2017 00:36

Yes what happened with Piers ?
We have to put up with him every morning.
