Jon Stewart's return to host 'The Daily Show' has been met with enthusiastic viewership, as evidenced by the impressive numbers from Monday night's episode. Drawing in 1.3 million viewers on Comedy Central, this marks the highest viewership the show has seen on its home network since Stewart's departure in 2015.
Following Stewart's departure, Trevor Noah took over as host until his own exit in 2022. While some post-2015 episodes of 'The Daily Show' have surpassed 1.3 million viewers, it's worth noting that those numbers often included simulcasts on other Paramount-owned networks, which Monday's episode did not have the advantage of.
