After scuttling a months-long search for a new host, the Paramount Global network said it had enlisted Jon Stewart, who presided over the late-night mainstay’s most popular era, to serve as its host on Monday nights throughout the 2024 election cycle and to run the program. He is expected to oversee the program through 2025. Various “Daily Show” correspondents will host the program Tuesday through Thursday nights, and Jen Flanz, the current executive producer, will continue her duties on the show.

That is a point, as we're reasonably new to the service we had/have a backlog to get through, so it feels like a lot of content... but if I'd been a long term subscriber it quite probably doesn't add up. We're just finishing Slow Horses and it should tie in nicely for the start of Masters of Air if we squeeze a couple episodes in tonight and tomorrow.
