Jon Stewart to Return as Host of ‘The Daily Show’ Through 2024 Election Cycle

Jon Stewart is returning to The Daily Show. According to Variety, Stewart will be the host on Monday nights through the 2024 election cycle.

In addition, Stewart will serve as the producer for the series through 2025. He is set to return to hosting on Feb. 12, the day after the Super Bowl.

“Jon Stewart is the voice of our generation, and we are honored to have him return to Comedy Central’s ‘The Daily Show’ to help us all make sense of the insanity and division roiling the country as we enter the election season,” said Chris McCarthy, President/CEO of Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios, in a statement. “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.”

Friends. After much reflection I have decided to enter the transfer portal for my last year of eligibility. Excited for the future!
