Following the end of Trevor Noah’s seven-year stint on The Daily Show, Comedy Central is yet to announce a full-time replacement for the comedian. Instead, it's handled these last few months in a manner that some might consider to be unusual: by having a series of guest hosts fill in weekly at the desk made famous by Jon Stewart. So far comedy stars like Leslie Jones, Kal Penn, and Sarah Silverman. Now, for the week of March 20th, the seat will be filled by none other than SNL legend and former United States Senator Al Franken. The program's mix of comedy and politics should be perfect for such a veteran, which is why I believe the powers that be should give his pick for Noah’s replacement some serious consideration.
