I know Mr Corden has as many friends as enemies on this board, but The Wrong Mans is actually pretty funny.
I think it's well worth checking out.

Anyone else watching it?

I'd rather spend the evening eating Mr Corden than watching any show of his on tele.

I'm not bothered either way, which probably helps.

Smiffy was great, but not really had much to do with Corden since.
Although this character isn't a million miles away (or one for that matter) from Smiffy, the comedy story as a flight of fancy, is still delivering with some particularly nice touches thrown in.

It's not like we're overrun with laugh out loud comedy.

Yes, definitely the best thing he's done since Gavin and Stacey. Reminded me I need to finish watching the latest episode on iPlayer ... :thumbsup:

Enjoying it here too, the Mrs says its rubbish, yet watches each episode sneekily over the top of her book.

Like it, apart from the fact that James Corden is playing James Corden............................again.

I'm surprised it's managed to keep the story line going.
It's been well written, as one ludicrous plot fizzles out another one just pops up in it's place.

Fingers crossed it can keep the momentum going for 3 more episodes.

Yeah it's quite good, but I do think yet again that Corden himself is a much better writer than actor.

...and therein lies the problem with James Corden....

I like this, it is at least someone trying something different and the co-writer and lead from Horrible Histories is very good and stops it being too 'Corden'
