Jon Stewart returning in Apple TV+ series

Hollywood Reporter:

As part of an expansive, multiyear deal with Apple, the Emmy-drenched former writer, producer and host of The Daily Show is set to front an all-new current affairs series for the streaming service. The show, which will run for multiple seasons, puts Stewart back in the anchor’s chair as he explores a host of topics at the center of both the national conversation and his own advocacy work.

And:

For Apple, nabbing Stewart’s Daily Show follow-up is a major coup. In his nearly two decades as host of the Comedy Central series, he earned 20 Emmys – including 10 consecutive outstanding variety series wins – and almost single-handedly redefined political satire in American culture.

Jon Stewart’s Daily Show was foundational, the strongest of voices. His absence created a painful void. John Oliver stepped in nicely, but having Jon Stewart return is absolutely brilliant. Great addition for Apple TV+.
