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.

    The coincidental timing with his contract non-renewal with Apple is also quite… serendipitous, no?

    Stewart is at the point in his career where he doesn’t want to commit to something more than a weekly show and executive producership. He’s also digging the podcasting space. This works out for everyone.
