As for The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, despite lackluster performance and a wholly lacking “buzzworthy” presence, Comedy Central says it remains devoted to this new incarnation of the show. New host Trevor Noah is an incredibly nice guy and can certainly be funny at times, but he lacks the anger and frustration that made Stewart’s incarnation of the series so cathartic, and his viewership is definitely lacking. Moreover, he faces stiff competition from other former Daily Show correspondents who have carved out their own successful series like John Oliver’s Last Week Tonight or Samantha Bee’s Full Frontal, the latter of which has quickly taken up Stewart’s mantle as essential viewing.
