  1. YOU GO JON STEWART!!!!
    This is gone 123 duplicate. 

  2. Based on what I’ve seen, he seems more interested in a both sides independent thing than helping to defeat the existential threat that is Trump and his Republican enablers.

    I mean if that’s his thing, it’s cool but it’s not really what the country needs.

  3. Hope he focuses his ammo on Trump because both siding this election like he did in his first appearance will not be looked on kindly by history, especially if Trump wins

  4. Ehh it was ok. Felt like his Apple show a little bit, which wasn’t that great. I’m stoked to watch more though. Maybe he needs a few shows to get back in the groove.

  5. Not just America. I’m Canadian and I needed Jon back.

  6. His return was the best news I’ve heard so far this year.

  7. What America needs is more television programming is such an American thing to say

  8. This is what we need, an “old guy” telling us that our leaders are older guys. Cool.

  9. Jon Stewart is no longer Jon Stewart.

    I used to be the hugest Jon Stewart fan. Even got his face tattooed on my cat. Either way, I have to say something about his nose. What the hell. Did they add half a centimetre to see if any would notice? For a joke like the old Daily show or something? When they put up an old pic of him, you could tell right away. His nose is longer. I was like “I knew something was different!”. I’m serious. His nose is either longer or his head is thinner. Probably just getting older.

    lolz.

    Either way, I suspect the writers of this show will never give him the scope to tell the news like before he left. I remember the good ole days, when the daily show could pretty much mock anything. Nothing seemed off limits. They would draw a dick in front of say, the leader of America for split second. While commenting about this or that. You could expect some kind of decent mocking on the political system.

    Today is not the same and I now desire, no want, no DEMAND a second interview with Tucker Carlson by Jon Stewart. lolz. I want to see those 2 battle it out again. To see if there is any free speech left.

    Good to see Jon in the chair, sad to know things are different now.

    Edit :

    To be clear, I am no fan of Tucker.

  10. Can he be president of America AND prime minister of Australia please

  11. America needs more both sides are the same commentary? I doubt it.

  12. If he hadn’t quit the daily show, I’m fairly certain Trump would have never been in office. A lot of voting Americans back then were getting their news directly from the Daily Show, and Stewart would have skewered both candidates to hell and back, but only one of them could have taken it.

  13. Smugness, reductionism, and belittling people not agreed with. Jon Stewart was the start of the current toxic America where we talk past each other, I f’n hate him, and we definitely don’t need more of him. He pushed me more right just because I couldn’t stand him and the smug liberals who he validated in their smugness and unwillingness to see two sides.

  14. I saw he already made fun of trump on his new show for being OLD of all things – how delightfully original! Trump should buckle in, he’s on his way to the BURN ward!!

  15. Not hyperbole, I really hope that Jon Stewart uses this return to spring board a run for political office. This man has the charisma, wit, and at least a decent knowledge in many different areas of government and political issues. He would fit that pissed off everyman that speaks clearly and has a way to connect with everyone who listens, which I think honestly most Americans would love that in a serious political candidate. #Stewart2028

  16. Yes what we need is more white dudes with huge platforms spewing BOTH SIDES ARE THE SAME because obviously repeating 2016 over and over is a great idea.

    Are you even listening to yourselves?

  17. More unhinged rants about Wuhan?

    How many virologists has he spoken to?

  18. No, John Stewart in the WHITE HOUSE is what America NEEDS…but we will settle for his commentary on the apocalypse if we have to.

  19. Jon Stewart coming back is like when Gandalf the White comes back in LOTR.

  20. I wonder if the plan all along was to bring him back. Trevor Noah quit and the network was trying out other people for a year. Were they just biding their time and laying the foundation for him to return?

    Even now, he won’t do it every day; just Monday. The other days will rotate other people in. Seems kinda lame. There won’t actually be a proper, regular host.

  21. Uhhhh, I think America NEEDS a lot of other things first. But yeah, it’s nice to have Jon’s voice more prominent in public discourse

  22. I hate how freaking old he looks now.

    Like wtf happened?

    He an I being the same age has absolutely nothing to do with it.

  23. Now if only rage against the machine could get their shit together and release a new album…

  24. Would prefer him in the White House really, but this is good too
