"Jon Stewart's Return to 'The Daily Show' Garners Record Ratings and Sharp Political Commentary"

Jon Stewart's return to The Daily Show as a part-time host drew 930,000 viewers, marking the highest viewership for the show in almost six years. The show's same-day rating among adults 25-54 was the best since August 2017 and more than doubled the audience during Trevor Noah's final weeks and the series of guest hosts in 2023. Stewart will host the show on Monday nights only through the presidential election in November, with the show's correspondents taking over hosting duties on other nights.
