In this transitional period, the show continued to be co-produced by Worldwide Pants and the staff was mostly made up of holdovers from Ferguson's era.
The writing staff consisted of Stilson along with Ferguson-era writers Jonathan Morano, Bob Oschack, Ben Stout and Joe Strazzullo.
New shows were aired from January 5, 2015 until March 6, 2015 with repeats of guest hosted programs being run during the final two weeks prior to Corden's premiere.
The fireplace component was removed, as were the props that sat on Ferguson's desk, and the door previously used by Secretariat, the pantomime horse, remained closed, and the set used a black vinyl surface floor.
The opening credit sequence consisted of a montage of stock time-lapse videography of New York City scenes while the theme music remained the same.
