"When Corden crossed the pond to take over for (Craig) Ferguson, the star had no hold on American media, almost making him an underdog (he was well-known to people like me for his role on Doctor Who)," says Sarah Hagi. "Slowly, it became apparent that, in order to prove himself, Corden would have to overcompensate by convincing celebrities to participate in all kinds of embarrassing behavior. celebrities he can get them to participate in any type of embarrassing behavior. But unlike the similarly annoying and dark-sided Ellen DeGeneres or Jimmy Fallon, Corden’s desperation to be liked doesn’t manifest itself in negging (Ellen) or laughing too hard at celebrities’ bad jokes (Fallon). It comes in the form of him desperately wanting to be liked more than the celebrities beside him. It’s rare to see someone so openly wanting attention in the presence of guests, so often he is silently screaming LOOK AT ME."
