Each week night, THE LATE LATE SHOW with JAMES CORDEN throws the ultimate late night after party with a mix of celebrity guests, edgy musical acts, games and sketches. Corden differentiates his show by offering viewers a peek behind-the-scenes into the green room, bringing all of his guests out at once and lending his musical and acting talents to various sketches. Additionally, bandleader Reggie Watts and the house band provide original, improvised music throughout the show. Since Corden took the reigns as host in March 2015, he has quickly become known for generating buzzworthy viral videos, such as Carpool Karaoke."

Watching all this unfold from New Zealand is so sad. Stay Safe America.

These protestors were a complete embarrassment to this country.

I didn’t hear Trump called them “thugs”, didn’t hear him say “when the looting starts the shooting starts”

When James is serious, the shivers go down my spine.

Didn't expect this from James tonight, but I really appreciated it.

You know shit is real when James Corden wasn't even trying to crack a joke.

• Jimmy Fallon: stunned and struggling to be hopeful.
• Jimmy Kimmel: still making puns amidst internalized disgust.
• James Corden: unshaken hope for the America he admired growing up.
• Stephen Colbert: simmering rage bursting into patriotic fervor.
• Seth Meyers: no jokes as he explains why Trump and the seditious congressmen must be removed for democracy to survive.

Don't mess with late night hosts.

James, a man who wasn’t born a U.S. citizen is more patriotic then all those people yesterday!

Thank you for all the likes!

A woman died for nothing, died for a man who wouldn't give her the time of day, truly sad.

[BetoEnLaVidaReal]

And he said Mexico was sending “bad hombres” ... this is ... unsettling

[claulamb]

James didn't have to do a message like this, but he did. This will forever be my fav talk show <3

[sixx]

You know it’s bad when James who isn’t an American citizen cares about American politics as wants better.

[elizabethtrainer]

Why did it take THIS to finally and seriously start talking about the 25th Amendment?

[EFantasic]

Today has made me so angry and so sad. Two weeks feels like two centuries.

[marcydow]

James Corden, you expressed our sorrow, addressed our distress and still managed to make us laugh. Thank you.

It's becoming more & more embarrassing to be American these days...
