The Nightly Show

David & John have lacked energy in my opinion, something that chat show hosts need, but then again as it's not their show for long they won't care for the show. At least Davina will bring energy.

I said previously in the thread that it feels less structured and lacks pace this week; the two shows so far with John have had longer monologues and one guest and felt a big dragged out. He didn't seem to turn on the fun for the dog bit either. Compared to last week or how much Graham fitted in V Graham Norton's half an hour slot and it makes it seem even slower.

You miss the monologue, but skim through the episode and it's filled with energy and features.

Didn't James Corden do a show on ITV4 for either the Euros or World Cup?

James Corden's World Cup Live, which aired during the 2010 World Cup.

Not much has changed in James' delivery either. Considering this was 7 years ago it had a lot more energy on itv than the nightly show seems to have, then again I suppose it's a case of appealing to the football fans straight after the match rather than the viewers coming out of Broadchurch or Benidorm.

THis is getting worse, I hope his wife tell him again what was that ****..... What has happened to Zippys voice?

Thinking about it, they missed a trick not having Paul O'Grady do a late night show instead of the tea time slot he used to occupy.

The sofa looks different again. This show has had more sofas than hosts.

I think there should have given Paul one of the week, it would have shown up everyone else..

I wouldn't be surprised if Mrs Brown gets a week. I know she's a BBC face but she managed a spot on Ant & Dec last week, and she has a chat show coming up so it would be a good way of breaking her in for that.

Err…

I obviously meant a late night show as in five nights a week. And late night.

Well, he didn't do very well on a primetime talk show once a week, I doubt he'd have done much better five nights a week in an even later slot (and if I recall, one of the reasons he ended the 5pm show was because he didn't want to do a daily show anymore - though he briefly came back a couple of years ago)
