why do so many people like james corden

[alienjiive]

I thought they hated him in the UK

We do, but people allow him only in the form of his G&S character I think. By "people", I mean those with shit enough taste to actually watch G&S and find it entertaining or decent.

[biene]

we do, only exception is for Gavin and Stacey.

[aspacecake]

I think it’s because The History Boys is one of my favourite shows/plays, but I find James Corden relatively harmless? Has he done anything problematic or do people just think he’s an annoying theatre kid?

[sjazzmreow]

This is a legit question in need of a genuine answer from the people who keep renewing his show and casting him in stuff.
