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."

"Hi! I'm Gav" "I'm Dan" "We're the Slow Mo Guys and Today we're gonna hit James Corden in the Face"

[@SirAuronthehonorable]

Apparently Jade next, we’re gonna show him how to be funny!

Anyone else think it’s funny the level of professionalism Gavin has on these types of events versus the level of idiocy he achieves at achievement hunter and rooster teeth 😂😂😂

[@TheBeastFatboy]

Spencer Goldstein Slowmo Gav and RT Gav are different. I figure Real Life Gav would be too.

[@jordanbrown145]

I love seeing them taking it to new levels and getting even bigger.

[@catchingbird1]

As if no one sees lol

[@raffyoli]

duality of gav

[@OneGeekStudios]

I'd imagine that real life Gav is a mixture of Slo mo Gav and RT Gav

[@Clisare]

Did he.... gesture to the wrong guys for the names?

[@adambock1449]

Yeah, I'd say he earned that shot to the face.

[@iyanalopez7622]

I love you r channel.

[@jlindsayuk]

I did a double take at the beginning and rewound. Straight to the comments in hope it wasn't just me that saw/thought that!

[@Barefoot_Joe]

You're being unfair, he need's the names written clearly and within easy sight when he's doing these very high level intense interviews. They could have put the names on their jackets for instance, in 3" tall letters. Lazy bastardos

[@noahnoahnoahnoahnoahnoah910]

That's exactly what I thought

[@garrettpritchett7648]

Gav : "it hit my nose" Dan "big target to be fair" You can see the discomfort on gavin's face 😂

[@angelbear_og]

No you can't. Didn't even seem like he heard Dan, since James was talking pretty loudly between them.

[@theindianmeme]

Well Gav always takes the nose jokes like a sport and maybe he didn't wanna hear it on national TV

[@elzeus13]

James took that ball to the face like a champ.

[@antifascist1]

Uhuehueheuehue

[@darennfreitas3636]

elzeus13 a rubber ball thrown from 2 inches away. Five yr olds could take that hit be a man

[@NemesisDawn]

Of course, he did, he's a pro at taking balls to the face.

[@OfficialGameHub]

You've won

[@wabashstudio]

Probably not the first ball to slap him in the face before.

[@22mx82]

The one dislike is the janitor of the set of the late late show

[@marymagness7467]

Mbegr22 That's called "Job Security"!!!

[@airwaveshorizon]

Whats the relation between a janitor and dislike? Is it because they are poor and you think they are likely gonna hate these guys who made lot of money from just pooping balloon and slow mo it? Or maybe do you think they are too stupid to understand these kind of things and you are on different class than them? Wow 450++ likes on ignorant comment like this lol.

[@Jalphaneera]

It's because he has to clean it up you idiot

[@airwaveshorizon]

Alex Sheardown clean up what? Water that pour into the box? There are many other episodes with more messy leftovers idiot. But okay if that what was he mean then thats fine.

[@cynthiamathew255]

[@pjf1997]

I like how James Corden is such a big fan, but forgets that Dan is the one on his left and Gavin is on his right at the very beginning

[@addiosnia]

Ikr

[@meritlessgamer]

I feel like its a joke

[@Plague_Doc22]

It is possible that the monitor he's looking at is reversed...but even then thats not a great excuse.

[@trickytreyperfected1482]

I feel like he's definitely exaggerating, but at the same time, he is a tv host in front of a lot of people. Even if he is very experienced.

[@starvalentino]

2:11 DANNN!!!!! LMAOOOOOOOOOO and nobody even heard him roast his best friend on national tv except for his best friend.

[@mauroalulema2075]

I cant understand what Dan says :/

Mark Kostecki ya it’s super weird he went from playing Minecraft in a room with a bunch of friends to making hundreds of thousands of dollars and being on television

[@josefsieffen18]

To be fair he has worked on movie and TV sets before he ever worked with RT.

[@Stroopwafe1]

Yeah, he was a cameraman for Top Gear.

[@bbrbbr-on2gd]

thats why they decided to hit him in the face with a ball :v

[@EdmundSnow98]

The worst part is they have name tags on their lab coats

[@kjab7860]

TRUEEEEE

[@highviewarts]

Didn't even look he was trying to gesture towards someone. When he says Gave name, he kinda just gestures towards the front. Even if he did mess up, oh well, I'm sure he knows the name but just messed up

[@Erdnussbuttertoast]

y'all are making such a huge deal out of the fact that James Corden pointed at the wrong person when he introduced them but that isn't indicative at all of whether he's seen their videos; it's possible they were standing the other way around in rehearsal and it then got switched for camera purposes, or that he looked at a TV screen and thought it was mirrored when it wasn't, or it just slipped his mind. I'm pretty sure you've called people by the wrong name before, even close friends.
