CBS pulls the plug on James Corden's costly late-night show.

James Corden's The Late Late Show was reportedly costing CBS up to $20 million a year, while netting less than $45 million. Corden was earning around $5 million a year to host the program, which was costing between $60 million to $65 million a year to make. If Corden had stayed, he would have faced a multimillion-dollar pay cut and staff reductions. CBS has previously said it tried everything to keep the British actor as host. Corden bid a tearful farewell on his final show last month and may be set for a big-money move to ITV.
