NEW YORK — “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah” is going back to where it all began.
Comedy Central announced Monday that the long-running, late-night comedy series will welcome back an in-studio audience when it returns to its original Hell’s Kitchen home on 11th Ave. and 51st St.
The show, which airs Monday through Thursday, had been filming at the ViacomCBS Times Square corporate headquarters since last September. Before that, the fast-pivoting Noah had filmed “The Daily Social Distancing Show” from his Manhattan apartment since the early days of the pandemic. It will bring back studio audiences from April 11.
The Hell’s Kitchen studio was put to good use, however. Comedy Central’s weekly series, “Tha God’s Honest Truth with Charlamagne Tha God,” hosted by Lenard McKelvey aka Charlamagne Tha God, was filmed in the space last fall.
A rep for the basic cable channel confirmed to the Daily News that the Stephen Colbert-produced show has been renewed for a second season, and there will be news of a new studio soon.
“The Daily Show” will take a brief hiatus starting March 18 as Noah is scheduled to host the Grammy Awards live from Las Vegas on April 3.
