    I hope the world is willing to give him a few months to find his footing.

    The show won’t be perfect right off the bat! And that’s fine!

      Agreed! I have high hopes for him. Also, I know people love to hate on Larry Wilmore, of course, but he’s actually improved a TON and now I really enjoy his show :)

    I am still mourning Jon, but I will say this about Trevor Noah:

    He real real cute.

    I watched his special on Netflix. He wasn’t funny like my usual go to comedians but he did have an interesting perspective on how he viewed the world that made me want to watch more of him. I am curious on how he will tackle the upcoming election. It’s always eyeopening and entertaining to watch American politics through a non-American’s eyes. Like giving someone who has never seen the circus a tab of acid and sitting them down right in the middle of the three rings. They minds usually explode with, “WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE????!!!” Welcome to America. And welcome to America politics. It’s going to be a long and crazy ride.

      I am interested in his take as a non-American. It’s part of what I liked about John Oliver’s show.

      I believe that’s what’s been helping John Oliver as well: sometimes it really does take a wildly befuddled Brit to put things in perspective.

    Are people excited for this guy to take over? I’ll give him a fair shot, but my hope is that once John Oliver’s HBO contract ends in two years, that he would return to The Daily Show. He’s doing great work right now, but i’d selfishly rather see him 4 nights a week.

      He’ll never do it. His show is super successful, he probably renegotiated a ton of money for the second season, AND he only has to do it once a week for half the year. He’d be a fool to give that up.

      I kind of doubt Oliver would do that now that he’s established his own show. But who knows. Last Week Tonight is Oliver’s show through and through. The Daily Show was Jon Stewart’s (yeah, Kilborn came first, but let’s be real). I imagine there’s some element of pride in making something your own like that.

      I didn’t see a big difference in Stewart and Oliver’s styles on The Daily Show so I think Oliver would come very close to filling the hole left by Stewart. Oliver struck me as a little angrier and more acerbic though. But anyway, Oliver’s digging deep into a lot of important and underdiscussed issues in a way that he could never do with The Daily Show’s format.

    I like the subtle jab at Jon Stewart’s height. I’m interested in seeing how Noah handles the role. I know very little about his comedic style.

      His stand up is on Netflix, it’s worth checking out.

      I saw his African American comedy special and wasn’t *that* impressed but my understanding is that his material has evolved a lot since then.

    I beg EVERYONE! Give him a chance. His past ‘Daily Show’ appearances didn’t do him justice at all. He is VERY (VERY) funny.

    I would say spend some time to get to know him before the 28th. Watch his stand-up movie ‘African American’ on Netflix. I laughed so hard, I cried. He is incredible at accents and impressions. (I really was so surprised.) I also listened to him on a bunch of podcasts, too. So it really won’t feel like a stranger is taking over next month.

    Plus, he looks HOT DAMN in a suit.

      And if you don’t have Netflix, a lot of it is available on YouTube. I laughed so hard I cried when I watched the Tacos video.

      Brave man. I truly hope he succeeds. I loved Jon Stewart, miss him already. Jon Oliver knocked it out of the park and then got his own show, so maybe Trevor will be just as amazing.
