It's absolutely dreadful. James Corden is about as funny as cancer.

Sorry, hate it - Corden trying to be as funny as Ricky Gervais and Craig Cash.

Being a wanker doesn't help either!

I enjoyed it, but both Gavin and Stacey in particular are a right pair of whiny twats. How I Met Your Mother did a similar thing where you're expected to root for a main character who's just an awful person. Friends as well, actually.

I hate Corden but do enjoy Gavin and Stacey.

Hopefully Corden doesn't allow too much of his god awful persona into it

I thought that he basically played himself in it

Disagree, I quite liked him as Smithy but don't really like Corden too much, a bit too smug for my liking.

Wasn’t the biggest fan to be honest, certainly not a laugh out loud comedy but it isn’t terrible

With a bit of luck this means we don't have to suffer Mrs Brown on Xmas Day.

Clearly going against the grain here, but love the series. Looking forward to this.

Agree, that's where I stand.

It's not laugh out loud comedy but it's funny enough to watch and I look forward to the special!

Who was the “awful person” in Friends?

Its the only thing he’s in that I don’t mind watching him. League of their Own isn’t too bad either tbh.

Monica turned into a monster, ate Chandler and spat out an obedient husband but only married him after seeing if she had any chance of a bit with Tom Selleck first

Rachel flew across the world specifically to fuck up a wedding, Chandler stole his best friend's girlfriend and treated Janice like a piece of shit for years

Ross abused his position as a professor, sacked his daughter's male nanny because he thought it was all a bit gay, didn't tell Rachel they were still married and didn't seem to give the slightest shit that she was taking his daughter across the world to live

Phoebe was a preachy arsehole about ethics who contradicted herself every single one, made Ross seem the bad guy for suggesting a little girl's cat should go back to the little girl rather than be the ghost of her dead mum or whatever, sabotages Joey's work and guitar lessons, strings the nerd guy along for years before finally dumping him while he's on holiday with her. She's easily the evil twin

Joey was a bit sleazy but alright

Skip season 5, the whole thing about Gunther being a serial killer was dropped way too quickly

Stacey yes, but I wouldn't say Gavin is. His character is more level headed. His looks at the camera when the situation is chaos shows he is like, "seriously?"

Cordin has allegedly turned into a right diva and is up his own arse. Not liked at all when he’s at Soho Farm.
