The Daily Show - Comedy Central

The Daily Show (now known as The Daily Show with Jon Stewart) is a satirical talk show focusing on political content, produced and broadcasted by Comedy Central in the United States. It has won the Peabody Award and Emmy Awards for Outstanding Short Form Comedy or Drama Series multiple times. The show first aired on July 22, 1996, hosted by Craig Kilborn. In 1998, Jon Stewart replaced Kilborn as the host, and his addition turned The Daily Show into one of the most satirical political talk shows on American television. The program gathers important news from major media outlets across the country every day, such as Fox, CBS, and CNN, selects representative news items for commentary, features live guests discussing with the host daily, and invites celebrities to participate in the show. The Daily Show airs four episodes weekly, recorded live at 6:30 PM from Monday to Thursday, and broadcasts at 11 PM Eastern Time and 10 PM Central Time.
