![]() Whereas Colbert’s guests are wheeled out individually to sit on the host’s right side – a long tradition on American chat shows – Corden’s guests come out together and sit bunched up on his left on a too-small sofa that seems to encourage chaos. While Colbert’s show feels like, well, a television show – arid, canned, rehearsed – Corden has gone out of his way to make his show feel more like a club, more intimate, more spontaneous, more live. Having sat and watched Corden’s show numerous times this past week, it’s clear how different the two shows are – and that ranges from vibe to guest type to comedic tone. The audience might be laughing, but no one in the green room so much as titters. Watching backstage on a jumbo screen, either it’s my jet lag or Colbert’s show has a serious problem.
