Jon Stewart is back as Monday Host in 'The Daily Show'

Hindustan Times  

Los Angeles, January 27 : After a months-long hunt for a new host, the Paramount Global network announced that Jon Stewart, who reigned over the late-night mainstay's most successful era, will serve as host and programme director on Monday evenings for the 2024 election cycle, Variety reported. "Jon Stewart is the voice of our generation, and we are honoured 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," said Chris McCarthy, President/CEO of Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios, in a statement. Executives at the network may be expecting that Stewart would foster new talent for "Daily," eventually finding the show's future leader. Stewart's "Daily" stint helped launch the careers of numerous comedians, including John Oliver, Samantha Bee, and Steve Carell.
