After scuttling a months-long search for a new host, the Paramount Global network said it had enlisted Jon Stewart, who presided over the late-night mainstay’s most popular era, to serve as its host on Monday nights throughout the 2024 election cycle and to run the program. He is expected to oversee the program through 2025. Various “Daily Show” correspondents will host the program Tuesday through Thursday nights, and Jen Flanz, the current executive producer, will continue her duties on the show.

    What’s the best way, without cable or torrenting, to watch Comedy Central these days?

    Edit: looks like Paramount+ might have it in the states. From time to time I sub to that to blast through all its Trek content, so this might work out for me.

      Parts of the episode are uploaded to YouTube by Comedy Central.

      Large portions of the show, actually.

        Seems like the only way to watch full episodes is to have cable, no?

          Yes and no.

          When new episodes are aired, they’re broken up into chunks and are uploaded to YouTube on the Daily Show channel. This includes the opening comments, any special pieces, and guest interviews.

          It actually gets a bit annoying sometimes. There can be as many as four videos released in a day, and then you add in the shorts and internet exclusive rehash episodes…

      I deleted my comment, because it was deceiving, you DO have to have a cable package to watch them online on the comedy central website. I misread originally.
