Jon Stewart will return to 'The Daily Show' as its Monday host and executive producer. Show correspondents will host other nights of the week

After scuttling a months-long search for a new host, the Paramount Global network said it had enlisted Jon Stewart, who presided over the late-night mainstay’s most popular era, to serve as its host on Monday nights throughout the 2024 election cycle and to run the program. He is expected to oversee the program through 2025. Various “Daily Show” correspondents will host the program Tuesday through Thursday nights, and Jen Flanz, the current executive producer, will continue her duties on the show.

    DENNIS: Oh king, eh, very nice. An’ how’d you get that, eh? By exploitin’ the workers – by ‘angin’ on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic an’ social differences in our society! If there’s ever going to be any progress–

    WOMAN: Dennis, there’s some lovely filth down here. Oh – how d’you do?

    ARTHUR: How do you do, good lady. I am Arthur, King of the Britons. Whose castle is that?

    WOMAN: King of the who?

    ARTHUR: The Britons.

    WOMAN: Who are the Britons?

    ARTHUR: Well, we all are. we’re all Britons and I am your king.

    WOMAN: I didn’t know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective.

    DENNIS: You’re fooling yourself. We’re living in a dictatorship. A self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes–

    WOMAN: Oh there you go, bringing class into it again.

    DENNIS: That’s what it’s all about if only people would–

    ARTHUR: Please, please good people. I am in haste. Who lives in that castle?

    WOMAN: No one live there.

    ARTHUR: Then who is your lord?

    WOMAN: We don’t have a lord.

    ARTHUR: What?

    DENNIS: I told you. We’re an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week.

    ARTHUR: Yes.

    DENNIS: But all the decision of that officer have to be ratified at a special biweekly meeting.

    ARTHUR: Yes, I see.

    DENNIS: By a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs,–

    ARTHUR: Be quiet! DENNIS: –but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more–

    ARTHUR: Be quiet! I order you to be quiet!
