Late Late Night Stuff

Here's a piece about what James Corden is planning (or not planning) for The Late Late Show. I'm encouraged by the roster of writers he's hired so far, especially David Javerbaum.

I've been spectacularly disappointed by the guest hosts they've had filling in. I had this silly idea that someone would try to do something different with the opportunity but it's more like they've been told to make it boring and non-innovative so that Corden will look better when he shows up. Wayne Brady's hosting this week and he's a little better than some of the others but we're getting very generic talk shows. Sean Hayes actually managed to make Dame Edna boring when he/she was in his guest chair.

Dick Cavett is a guest on the show Wayne Brady is hosting this Friday night/Saturday morning. Wish they'd give him a week as host so he could show them all how it's done.
