imagine if jon wasn't so racist and didn't have the falling out with Wyatt Cenac, of if they hadn't made larry wilmore's show do the shitty panel segments instead of the proven formula of 1 on 1 interviews
Lol very good point, but yeah I was specifically pointing out that there were people already working at the Daily Show that would’ve been good hosts. Jordan Klepper for example
I suppose. I a little bit blame Netflix and the other stuff around it and think if he took over the Daily Show it would’ve gone better, but you might be right.
Just looked it up, when Jon Stewart left there were 5 correspondents, Hasan Minhaj, Jordan Klepper, Jessica Williams, Al Madrigal, and Aasif Mandvi. I think I would’ve preferred any of those to Trevor Noah. They also totally could’ve offered it to someone who had previously worked on it and left
Hell, if Stewart had left a bit earlier they could’ve given it to John Oliver, who’s been super successful with Last Week Tonight. That started a year before Stewart left though
The two people on the team apart from Stewart who were funny(ish) got better jobs and they wouldn't spring for an established political comic because they're all either too chuddy even for libs or outright communists.
The bar is so low in that respect. He's competing with the likes of Dave Chappelle and Dennis Miller and whatever-the-fuck that Rothaniel shit was. Dude had three jokes to his name, but that's at least two more than half the late-'10s comedy class.
quite possibly the least funny comedian on TV. I'm baffled as to how he got the job in the first place.
Especially when there were funnier people to promote from within

Omg Wyatt Cenac would’ve done a great job
yeah. for the same reasons jon didn't like him. :deeper-sadness:

I believe wyatt was a pita to deal with also. It's probably also the reason you don't really see him any where
Wyatt Cenac got his own show, Problem Areas on HBO.
Oh shit I need to check that out
I mean, almost literally anyone else would have been funnier. but I get what you mean, lol.

yeah. Not sure if they were still there at the end, but Larry Wilmore or Wyatt Cenac would have been better choices.

Yeah, all of those people were pretty good.

liberals loved having a person say lines white people wrote

Amber Ruffin takes the cake easily.
