Talk show host James Corden says he is not upset about lagging behind in TRPs and does not look at the ratings.
The 38-year-old presenter says there is no point in worrying about the numbers as he can hardly do anything about it, after numbers revealed his show trailed behind "Late Night with Seth Meyers" and "Nightline" in viewership, reported Variety.
"My ego is too big to make a show that's on at 12:37 at night. It's as simple as that.
"What's the point (in thinking about ratings)? I can't move that needle. I can't change that dial," says Corden.
"The Late Late Show with James Corden" host says he is more interested in creating a show that appeals to a digital audience.
"We want to make a show that can be consumed all through the day and all through the night. But what I can do is make the very best television show we could ever possibly make -- one that's consumed whenever people want to find it," he says.
