Jon Stewart to Return to 'The Daily Show'

The GOAT of Late Night Satire is Back

Jon Stewart, who hosted the popular late-night news satire program 'The Daily Show' from 1996 to 2015, will return to the show as its Monday host and executive producer, NBC News has confirmed.

Unwelcome Comeback?

Some of the show's biggest fans may not be thrilled to see Stewart's return. The comedian, now 61, will host the show every Monday beginning Feb. 12 through the 2024 presidential election cycle.

Stewart received an extended ovation from the studio audience Monday as he returned to 'The Daily Show' after more than eight years. While he will host on Mondays, show correspondents will host on other nights.
