The Daily Show with Jon Stewart: Final Episode - Blu-ray Forum

BigPudge · 08-07-2015, 04:29 AM

Now THAT'S how you end a show!!!

The first half hour (commercial free) might be my favorite half hour of television i have ever seen. Getting every correspondent back (including Wyatt Cenac, who i did not think would be coming back after his comments a few weeks back)

Then the Goodfellas scene inteoducing the crew.. genius

And finally... the ****in BOSS!

Just a tremendous hour of tv.

Regardless of your political leanings... or your feelings towards Stewart and his show... this was just a great way to end a show.

Im jot sold on Trevor Noah yet though.. we shall see

I loved it. A great ending and I can't wait to see what Trevor does. Like Larry, I don't expect him to be on his A game for a year (Larry is still working on it), but I am curious to see how it will continue. Is the show taking another break or is he starting up next week?

BTW, I loved John Oliver's "What's a commercial?"

I remember watching Craig Kilborn's last episode as host. Fu**, I'm old...

Thank you, Jon Stewart, for being an integral part of the American conversation. You will be missed.

Truth.

You know, I keep hearing so much about this Jon Stewart guy; I think I might tune in tomorrow and finally give him a shot.

Jon's still got it. It's kind of weird to see all these guys age as I haven't followed him as much over the last few years. I actually probably remember him most from the 90s since MTV was a big part of my childhood. Once a week episodes may be about perfect to maintain energy and enthusiasm. I'm a fan of Jordan as well and wouldn't mind him as a full-time host.

Yep, it's good to have him back, even if it is only once a week. His AppleTV show The Problem was well worth a watch if you haven't seen it.

Klepper would certainly be a better choice for a host than some of the stand-ins they had, though he seems more interested in being out in the field.

I'd be very happy if I never saw the walking ego 'Charlamagne the God' (who?

) ever again. He was dreadful.

When Noah took over, I watched maybe 2 episodes before realizing I jusy didn't find him funny. So I never watched Daily Show during his tenure.

When they had guest hosts I watched a few like Kal Penn and Desi Lydic.

I was extremely happy Hasan Minaj didn't get the gig, I find him to be painfully unfunny.

I loved Stewart's first episode back and look forward to his run this year.

I would say Klepper or Lydic to take over as permanent host after Stewart leaves after the election
