In actually good political news, Jon Stewart is officially extending his return to “The Daily Show.” The late night legend will continue to host the Comedy Central show once a week through December of 2025.

Previously, Stewart was only expected to host through the 2024 election. This upping of his onscreen appearance is a sign that “The Daily Show” in its new format seems to be working for Comedy Central.

“Jon’s incisive intellect and sharp wit make him one of the most important voices in political and cultural commentary today,” Chris McCarthy, Paramount Global Co-CEO and president and CEO of Showtime & MTV Entertainment Studios, said in a statement to press.
