Trevor Noah then stepped into his shoes before leaving the job in 2022. Episodes are now hosted by comedians Ronny Chieng, Josh Johnson, Jordan Klepper, Desi Lydic, and Michael Kosta.

When did ‘The Daily Show’ take a break?

As per the official website of Comedy Central, the last episode of the show was aired on July 31, during which Lydic spoke with actor Tony Hale, who came to promote his movie ‘Sketch’. At the end of the episode, the host announced that the show would be taking a break but would return to screens soon.

“We’re going on a production break for August, which was planned months and months ago. So don’t freak out," he said in reference to the abrupt cancellation of fellow late-night host Stephen Colbert's "The Late Show" on CBS. "Have a great summer, and we’ll see you in September when we can all freak out together.”

When and where will it return?

Airing on weeknights from Monday to Thursday at 11 PM ET/ 10 PM CT, the show is streamed on Comedy Central. The same episodes can later be streamed on Paramount+ the following day.

A news satire television program, the show analyses and presents the latest developments in news, politics, and culture to its audience in a humorous manner. The show was created by Madeleine Smithberg and Lizz Winstead, as per IMDB.
