you can't even get him to host it daily? at this point just shutter the show. there's plenty of people doing good lib/progressive political comedy (and way more doing it badly), but a legacy network like Comedy Central has nothing to offer them.
There was a time when I would have praised Stewart for getting out while the getting was good (ignoring his awful podcast), but it looks like he wants to go the way of Stephen Colbert instead. RIP in peace you god damn liberal.
I think that, with everybody else zigging, they should zag. Give it to Stavros and make it completely apolitical, just bring celebrities on to talk about their dicks.
How do we not have a Stavi emoji? God damn.
Well, anyway, I will see your Apolitical Stavros Dick Jokes With Celebrities show and raise you Bring Back Virgil.
nah. is bill o'reilly still alive? bring him back! papa bear hosting the daily show would be amazing. and bipartisan. what's not to love here?
It's kind of a shame that Taylor Tomlinson didn't get a shot at this instead of...whatever the terrible show she just started is.
Watching The Colbert Report and Daily Show in the 2000s was something I always looked forward to each night. It'll be nice to have Jon back, if only once a week.
Fwiw:
Stewart, who spent 16 years at the show, the majority of them Emmy-winning, will be heavily involved as an executive producer on the other nights as well.
But yeah we'll see - they are offering him a ton of work that just isn't worth it, but if he is willing...
I doubt the "what if x on weed" guy has much to contribute in the way of material rather than star power but maybe idk
