Too much of a mediocre thing?

Wed Jun 16, 2010 12:04 pm

I watched James Corden's World Cup Live, last night. To say it was poor would be an understatement.

I haven't seen it before [and based on last night, won't bother again], but wondered if last night was an aberration
in an otherwise whimsical series or if it always as flat, stale, unfunny, awkward and embarrassing as that?

Can't stand the fat waste of space.

He think's he's hilarious. Believes his own hype. Plank!

Saw some of the first one - he just spent his time sucking up to Simon Cowell and Katy Perry when he should have been ripping the pee. I think he is more concerned with being great mates with celebrities than being funny. All very dull, I shan't be watching it again.

It's nowhere near as good as Baddiel and Skinner, but then again, Corden isnt as funny a comedian as Skinner

Has anyone seen his cringeworthy performance at some awards ceremony (i would post the youtube link if i knew how to :oops: ) trying to upstage Sir Patrick Stewart ? A great actor putting him firmly in his place. Tosser !

Read about it... Corden is an arse, he is about as funny as a hemarrhoid.

I like him, find him funny but he does tend to try and become mates with the celebrities I find.
Oh and Pixie Lott... Well, speechless :wink:
