This is the best summary I could come up with:
Just months after Jon Stewart’s sudden departure from Apple TV Plus, the comedian is set to make his return to The Daily Show on Comedy Central.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, The Daily Show’s yearlong search for a new host following Trevor Noah’s departure in 2022 has culminated in Stewart’s return this February.
In a statement about the news, Showtime / MTV Entertainment Studios president Chris McCarthy described Stewart as “the voice of our generation,” whose political perspectives are going to be invaluable as we get deeper into the 2024 presidential election cycle.
“In our age of staggering hypocrisy and performative politics, Jon is the perfect person to puncture the empty rhetoric and provide much-needed clarity with his brilliant wit,” McCarthy said.
In the year during Comedy Central’s search for someone to replace Noah, multiple guest hosts sat in for brief stints at The Daily Show desk, and a somewhat similar structure’s going to remain in place going forward.
Even if The Daily Show hadn’t been building up hype about who the new host might be, bringing Stewart back is the kind of move that’s likely going to be a ratings boon.

survivalmachine ( @survivalmachine@beehaw.org ) 3•5 months agoNoah ran the show for 7 years and decided to go out while he was still very much loved, way back in Fall '22. The show’s been using guest hosts for the past year.
He left like a year ago, it’s been a rotating cast of hosts since then.
library_napper ( @library_napper@monyet.cc ) 2•5 months agoWhy?
I don’t have any unique insight that would add anything to what’s already been said about this. Trevor Noah said he wanted to go back to his hobbies and I don’t really think he was let go given how the show fell of the cliff after his departure.
