Jon Stewart waves goodbye to ‘The Daily Show’ at Emmys

It’s no surprise to see The Daily Show getting tons of love in Jon’s a year ago at the 2015 Emmys, and it took home one of the biggest trophies of the night winning the award for Outstanding Variety Talk Series!

In accepting her sixth Emmy, Louis-Dreyfus quoted her own show and said, “What a great honor it must be for you to honor me tonight”. Numerous final moments included tragic, ambiguous or comedic deaths of the main characters, including Jackie Peyton’s overdose from Nurse Jackie, Nucky Thompson’s violent murder from Boardwalk Empire and the brief return of Charlie Harper to Two and a Half Men that ended with pianos falling on him and the show’s creator Chuck Lorre.

“The Daily Show” also won awards for writing and directing on Sunday night.

“To everybody on television, I just want to tell you, cling to it as long as you can”, joked Stewart, who’s turning over “Daily Show” to Trevor Noah.

“The Voice” won a best reality series trophy, breaking the hold that “The incredible Race” long had on the category and snaring an award that always eluded “American Idol”.

He said, “I am still waiting for service!”

I wish there be a three-way tie for Letterman, Colbert and Stewart?! “You will never have to see me again”.

HBO dominated the Emmys with 43 awards, followed by NBC with 12, Comedy Central and FX Networks with eight awards each, ABC with six and Amazon with five.

“I will never have an experience like this again”, he continued.

Host Andy Samberg performs at the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards in Los Angeles, California September 20, 2015. Prior to Sunday’s broadcast, “Bessie” won the Emmy for TV movie. He went on to explain that other TV people don’t know how it is out in the real world.

“The Saturday Night Live 40th Anniversary Special” won the Emmy for best variety special.
