James Corden is a ridiculously overrated "comedian". I find him annoyingly unfunny and I'm surprised more people aren't embarrassed on his behalf.

Thing is, alot of tv people seem to love him and maybe as someone who's a bit older now, I simply don't have the capacity to appreciate his brilliance. Still you compare him to genuine talents like Jimmy Carr, Bill Bailey, David Mitchell etc and I think you'll find him out of his depth.

It's interesting that despite being flavour of the month he has only secured the inevitable panel show on Sky and not the BBC or ITV. Maybe even they saw that he's not everything they thought he was.

And yes, Stewart is acting strangely here or at least that's what the clip suggests.

Awesome! Last 5 seconds FTW! What is this show?


Screenwipe

This was succeeded by Newswipe which we've seen around the sift before and his panel show 'You have been watching'

Yesterday he also started a radio 4 show titled 'So wrong it's right'.

All of them worth a watch/listen.

I have come to the conclusion that Britain is one giant television studio with everyone swapping appearances on each other's panel shows.

Thanks.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

What the hell, another funny panel show from the UK. I had to watch all three parts of this.

The Scotland stuff from Boyle each week is amazing - still he was really on fire this week. Another panel show worth looking up is Would I Lie To You. The new series has been consistently brilliant.

Sigh... Were the Egyptians this tough on the empire that superseded them after their pathetic collapse?


Nope.

But it was because panel shows didn't get a lot of viewership back then.

Oh god ANOTHER brit panel show I need to watch!???$@*(&@
