Beloved host James Corden leaving ‘The Late Late Show’ in 2023

Apr 29 2022

The days of carpooling with James Corden are almost over, as the beloved host of the ‘The Late Late Show’ is set to give up his seat next year.

This will bring the show to a close after an eight-season run, with Corden getting emotional as he spoke about his departure in a monologue on Thursday night.

‘I never want this show to overstay its welcome in any way. I always want to love making it. And I really think in a year from now, that will be a good time to move on and see what else might be out there’ he said.

He did say that the next season will be the best year and that he intends to go out with a bang. Seven years ago, Corden took television by storm, particularly in the USA.

His creative comedic swings resonated with viewers worldwide, with his Carpool Karaoke helping the show generate more than a billion YouTube views as he sang alongside celebrities.

CEO of CBS George Cheeks commended Corden’s creative genius, saying that he had the privilege of experiencing his valuable partnership with CBS, both as a performer and a producer.
