You step into this new role and you’re doing a new job and most of the first year was just trying to stay afloat, just trying not to get canceled and trying to find my footing. That dynamic could play a role in how executives at Comedy Central choose to proceed. Noah has worked intensely to make the program his own, holding court with various media influencers after hours, and devising new “Daily” formats. That program, which draws a different audience than Comedy Central’s, has seen growth in the time period. Discovery, [executives have scuttled late-night shows led by both Samantha Bee and Conan O’Brien](https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/samantha-bee-canceled-full-frontal-1235324772/), and have made no efforts to replace either. James Corden has already indicated he plans [to step down from CBS’ “The Late Late Show”](https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/james-corden-replacement-late-night-1235285678/) next year, and NBC is no longer in the business of airing comedy programming at 1:30 a.m. With no timetable for his departure, we’re working together on next steps,” the network said in a statement. Noah revealed his plans to an audience at Thursday evening’s taping of the program in New York, according to two people familiar with the matter.

NEW YORK — Trevor Noah, the South African comedian who took over the hosting reins of “The Daily Show” after the departure of Jon Stewart seven years ago, ...

“I stood here tonight and I made fun of the president of the United States, and I’m going to be fine. “I came in for a tour of what the previous show was. And he recalled the advice that Stewart gave him before starting in his new role: “Make the best show that you feel needs to be made. Samantha Bee, an alum of “The Daily Show”, announced that her show would not return to TBS in the fall. He joked to The Times in 2015 that since joining the programme, the “blackness has tremendously increased at the show. He said he missed touring, going to other countries, learning other languages and “being everywhere, doing everything”.

Comedian Trevor Noah, host of "The Daily Show" on Comedy Central, said he was going to leave the program after hosting it for seven years.

Stand-up was done, and when I got back out there again, I realized that there's another part of my life that I want to carry on exploring," Noah told his studio audience late on Thursday. But after seven years, I feel like it's time," Noah said. It was not known who would succeed him.

The current 'Daily Show' host announced he is leaving, sparking speculation over who will fill the chair. The possibilities include two current and one ...

Bee is well-connected, well-respected and a former member of the Comedy Central family, which makes her a likely choice to succeed Noah (and the network will be under pressure to choose a woman, because of the current dearth in late night). Also a current Daily Show correspondent, Wood has exceptional reporting skills, honed from a background in journalism during college and beyond, and a fantastic delivery style.

(And bonus points if her executive producer, Jenny Hagel, were to come with Ruffin to Comedy Central—they often appear in segments with Meyers, and they make a fantastic team.) Chieng would be the first Asian late night host on a major network. Occupying one of the premier spots in late night, Noah’s influence has gone far beyond ratings, which are modest by television standards.

Comedian Trevor Noah, who will step down from "The Daily Show" after hosting for seven years, did not say when his final episode would be.

(In an episode of the late-night program airing shortly after, Noah [jokingly referred](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=243wWj9haKQ) to Wolf’s performance as “disgraceful.”) He also hosted the past two Grammy Awards ceremonies, the latter shortly before he [headlined April’s White House correspondents’ dinner](https://www.washingtonpost.com/arts-entertainment/2022/04/30/trevor-noah-white-house-correspondents-dinner/?itid=lk_inline_manual_18) — making him the first comedian to do so since former “Daily Show” contributor Michelle Wolf stirred controversy with her set in 2018. “I sort of felt like ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,’ ” Noah recalled Thursday. “ ‘The Daily Show’ is back, with its essential wit and irreverence intact.” He didn’t reveal when his final episode will be but said his departure is “not instant.” [Jon Stewart](https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/2015/08/07/jon-stewarts-last-daily-show-a-sentimental-sign-off-from-the-b-s-detector/?itid=lk_inline_manual_10), who hosted the show for more than 15 years, loyal viewers were skeptical.

Noah increasingly looked like a performer who was growing beyond the grind of a late-night Comedy Central show. If he doesn't find a new perch in the genre, ...

In his first episode as host, Noah joked about reports that better-known celebrities like Chris Rock had turned down the job by cracking "once more, a job Americans rejected, is now being done by an immigrant."

His profile was growing outside of the show as well. Noah took over The Daily Show in September 2015. partisanship while exploring deeply issues affecting people of color and expanding the show's online footprint. And from my spot in the room, he scored tremendously, relying on a quick wit and ready charm to leaven even his sharpest jabs. In the traditional showbiz world, one possible next step for Noah would be a network TV gig, offering a bigger paycheck, wider audience and greater exposure. Since ABC's host Jimmy Kimmel just re-upped for three more years and all the top dog late night hosts are relatively young, taking Corden's gig might require Noah to wait an awfully long while for his shot at the big job. He managed to sound even-handed while chiding us American journalists to produce work worthy of the press freedoms we have. He had to tell jokes sharp enough to resonate with his savvy audience of journalists and politicos, but not so cutting that they seemed nasty or ill-intentioned. It's later in the evening in a spot where he would always be No. "I miss learning other languages.

The South African comedian announced his exit from Comedy Central's flagship late-night program last night, saying that his “time is up.”

Per Matthew Belloni’s Puck [newsletter](https://puck.news/newsletter_content/what-im-hearing-mgm-whispers-bond-politics/), Noah makes an eight-figure salary, which would possibly be renegotiated if he were to extend his contract. “We are grateful to Trevor for our amazing partnership over the past seven years. He went on to express his gratitude for having been chosen to man the Daily Show desk, reflecting on his tenure on the show. It’s been one of my greatest joys.

The comedian shared his intended departure during Thursday’s show, saying, “I feel like it’s time.” The South African comedian was relatively unknown in the US before being tapped to replace longtime Daily Show host Jon Stewart in 2015, a choice that Noah called “a crazy bet to make” during his remarks on Thursday’s telecast.

I hope that the show continues to recognise the importance of diversity. It is vital that TV satire shows continue to highlight and critique political and social issues. American late-night comedy has become a highly saturated space with lots of different programmes vying for the attention of audiences who are leaving TV in favour of digital platforms. The appeal of successful satirists like him is that they are on the audiences’ side, they articulate citizen concerns and anger on a public stage but in a funny and compelling way. These unique perspectives have caught the attention of a younger and more diverse global audience that have been introduced to The Daily Show via Noah. The American late-night comedy scene is very male, white, and American.
