Andy Cohen Says ‘The Late Late Show With James Corden’ Copied His ‘Watch What Happens Live’ Set

Andy Cohen is calling out The Late Late Show with James Corden for ripping off his Watch What Happens Live set. The Bravo star went on the Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi podcast where he said his late-night show set a new standard. “I’m not a comedian [and] I think [WWHL is] a different type of talk show.

I think there has been a traditional idea of what a late-night talk show is, and I would argue that Watch What Happens Live redefined what the late-night talk show is,” Cohen said on the iHeartMedia podcast that dropped on December 27.

Cohen continued, “[WWHL] was the first bar on late-night [then] James Corden got a bar. James Corden kind of wound up [copying our set].

It is what it is.” The podcast host added, “Ripping off your set,” to which Cohen said, “There you go. I am so glad we’re still going.
