Vulture compiled some clips of Corden's work.

So did EW, and I think managed to duplicate just one of Vulture's picks.

CBS remains mum, hence the references to Corden hosting in potentia.  Maybe CBS 
is taping test/tryout shows and Corden was spotted in Television City?

Interesting idea. 

Corden came to fame in the UK for co-writing a sitcom - Gavin & Stacey. He's 
run panel game shows over here, and presented the Brit Awards (UK version of 
the Grammys). He also regularly does Comic Relief skits (see here with David 
Beckham https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=po1rRYksoX4). As well as his stage 
work, he seems to have been getting more film work recently, and if you haven't 
seen it, you should check out The Wrong Mans which was a BBC/Hulu co-pro that 
he co-wrote as well as starred in. Probably best to avoid Lesbian Vampire 
Killers though. Not his finest moment.

The interesting question is how much else of this would he be able to do while 
also appearing on a nightly chat show?
