Jon Stewart can’t wait for the GOP debate

The reaction-from both fans and media alike-was fast and furious, and took on a somewhat mournful tone, especially since the final episode of The Colbert Report had aired just weeks earlier. Was it sinister? I don’t f***ing know.

His calm and cool exterior doesn’t meant that Noah ever dreamt of actually hosting “The Daily Show” before he was picked by Comedy Central. The show would go on to garner substantial ratings boosts for election coverage in 2004 and 2008.

Arriving two years before Stewart… There’s also Ed Helms, who starred in “The Hangover” movies and “The Office” (with fellow “Daily Show” alum and Oscar nominee Steve Carell), and now plays Rusty Griswold in the new film “Vacation”, which opened this week. And while he hopes the show will maintain the same satirical tone as Jon Stewart’s version, Noah realizes that because he’s coming to the show with a different perspective, it’s only natural things will play out differently on screen.

Will YOU watch The Daily Show with Trevor Noah???

There’s been memorable guests over the host’s 16 years as Stewart mentioned on Tuesday, but only a few can be considered quintessential “Daily Show” guests.

On CNN, ex-attorney Dean Obeidallah wrote: “Why wouldn’t Obama consult with Stewart, a man who is truly the Walter Cronkite (with more laughs) of our generation?”

“Top Obama aides David Axelrod and Austan Goolsbee knew Stewart’s voice mattered and made sure to field calls and emails from the host and “Daily Show” staff”, it continued. When Stewart returned to the airwaves on September 20, his stirring monologue showed a vulnerability and sense of compassion never before associated with the host. “You ran with such audacity”, he said. “My intention is to start something off the way he did… but luckily I have a foundation that’s been set up by a wonderfully smart and amusing man”.

The 52-year-old is saying goodbye more than 15 years after taking over as host back in 1999.

“I’d love to have [Donald Trump] on”, he said.

Politico also credited Stewart with fueling the recent national conversation about the Confederate flag-a valid topical discussion of racism, though it failed to address deeper concerns about institutionalized prejudice. “Right now I am looking at finding a way to incorporate the newer

media into the show while still keeping the core of what the show is”.
