Publishing timestamp: 2024-01-24 12:45:00
Summary
Jon Stewart will be returning to "The Daily Show" as the host on Mondays starting from February 12. He will continue to appear at least through the 2024 election cycle. The rest of the week will feature a rotating cast of show regulars. Paramount, the owner of Comedy Central, is bringing back Stewart to keep the signature series afloat, especially during the election year. Late-night TV has been facing economic challenges as advertisers move away from linear TV and audiences turn to streaming services and online video clips. Stewart's return is seen as a way to provide much-needed clarity and commentary on the current state of the country.
