(AP Photo/Jae C. Hong, File) Jon Stewart is set to extend his hosting duties on The Daily Show through the end of 2025. Paramount revealed that Stewart will continue his reign on the Comedy Central program each Monday, a schedule he has maintained since his return in February. He was originally supposed to stay just through the November election. Stewart, known for his biting critique and insightful political commentary during his earlier tenure from 1999 to 2015, has kept his trademark style. Paramount Global's co-CEO Chris McCarthy praised Stewart's ability to "cut through the noise" and provide indispensable insights into American politics. Stewart humorously noted that he considered a less frequent hosting schedule but decided to "suck it up" and continue weekly appearances on the show. In addition to hosting, he will remain an executive producer for the program. The show is broadcast at 11pm Eastern time and is available for streaming the following day on Paramount+.
