On the one hand, ugh a return to the traditional talk show format. On the other, it's Reggie Watts.

I don't see why he couldn't do both Late Night and CBB. Fred Armisen still has his projects.

Tosh.0 is actually pretty funny and Tosh is good interviewer and comedian.

Also in the same breath as the news about Watts:

http://www.avclub.com/article/reggie-watts-will-be-james-cordens-band-leader-lat-212951

quote:

Watts isn’t the only new Late Late Show hire as the network brings in a showrunner, a pair of producers, and perhaps most notably Mike Gibbons–the co-creator and executive producer of Tosh.0–as the show’s head writer and co-executive producer. This move brings Gibbons back to The Late Late Show, where he previously served as head writer during Craig Kilborn’s tenure.

Kilborn's head writer is coming back to be head writer on LLS.

Only 5 more days of Craig to go. :(

Does James Corden giggle more than Jimmy Fallon?

Unless there's a return of the puppets or a musical intro, I don't know how Jim Parsons or Jay Leno can top the end of the Betty White interview. That was delightfully ridiculous.

You know, I honestly think they missed a huge chance for years of just letting Craig chat to his guests as long as they felt like it then tossing it up unedited on the website.

Aww drat. Sorry about the loss of your mom. I lost my grandpa 2 days before Christmas so I know how much of a pisser it can be to lose a family member around the holidays. It's never easy no matter what time of the year but it stings a lot more around Christmas when everything else around you is lively and festive.

I hope he does a podcast when he's had time to unwind a bit. Even Conan has his own "talk to people I want to talk to for as long as I want" thing.

Part of me regrets not pushing to go to that first (thurs night) taping because of the huge cold open number that they taped during it. But then the other part realizes that it was with Jim Parsons and as much as I dislike Jay Leno, that interview was pretty solid to see a former talk show host talk with a now former talk show host.

That and I'm positive we're going to be in at least two of the crowd shots when they swing to audience in going to commercials during the episode.

Everyone's Playing!

So, we've got rotating guest Late Late Show hosts until Corden takes over in March (which is like auditioning replacements for Corden if he flames out, and judging by how nervous he was with Craig this week, it could happen).

Then Letterman retires in May, but Colbert doesn't start until August, right? What happens in the meantime at 11:30 on CBS? 2.5 months of Letterman reruns seems odd. Maybe a Best-Of Letterman extravaganza? Other guest-hosts?

There was a considerable amount of time after Letterman left NBC before Conan started. I think they just aired reruns that whole time. Then again, this is a higher-profile slot.
