The Daily Show (titled The Daily Show with Jon Stewart from 1999 to 2015 and The Daily Show with Trevor Noah beginning September 2015) is an American late-night talk and news satire television program, which airs each Monday through Thursday on Comedy Central and, in Canada, The Comedy Network.

Half-hour-long show premiered on July 21, 1996, and was hosted by Craig Kilborn until December 1998. Jon Stewart then took over as the host from January 11, 1999, to August 6, 2015, making the show more strongly focused on politics and the national media, in contrast with the pop culture focus during Kilborn's tenure. Stewart's version is currently the second-longest-running program on Comedy Central after South Park, & has won 21 Primetime Emmys.
