Jon Stewart will return to 'The Daily Show' as its Monday host and executive producer. Show correspondents will host other nights of the week

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.

    He didn’t retire, really. His show on Apple+ was canceled a few months ago.

    I was actually wondering if he would wind up back at home because of it.

      No, his original retirement was from the daily show to have an animal sanctuary with his wife.

      Apple gave him a stupid amount of money to come out of retirement.

        And then fucked him off because he dared to criticize China, who got big mad at Apple who wants to sell iPhones to Chinese still.

      His apple+ show kinda sucked though tbh. I wanted to like it but it didn’t have “it”. I could never get into it and stopped watching it pretty quickly
