Jon Stewart Returning to ‘The Daily Show’ as Monday Host Through 2024 Election
'The Daily Show' is bringing back beloved former host Jon Stewart on a Mondays-only basis to shepherd the series through the 2024 election season.
Following Trevor Noah’s exit in December 2022, the series spent 2023 relying on a revolving door of special guests and correspondents to hold down the fort while Comedy Central settled on a permanent host. “Jon Stewart is the voice of our generation, and we are honored to have him return to Comedy Central’s The Daily Show to help us all make sense of the insanity and division roiling the country as we enter the election season,” Chris McCarthy, President/CEO of Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios, said in a statement ( via Variety). Stewart joined The Daily Show in 1999 — taking over for original host Craig Kilborn — and remained with the program until 2015, inconveniently leaving before the rise of Trump and the 2016 presidential elections.
