WATCH: The Epic ‘Daily Show’ Reunion We All Need Right Now

By Thea Glassman May 10, 2017
Watching Jon Stewart, John Oliver, Samantha Bee, Stephen Colbert, Ed Helms and Rob Corddry all sit down together for a “Daily Show” reunion kind of feels like being wrapped in a warm blanket on a very rainy night. Safe, cozy and absolutely necessary.
The six comedians, all of whom worked on the hit Comedy Central show, gathered on Colbert’s “Late Show,” to reminisce about old segments, which included mole removals, gay penguins, and running away from the Ku Klux Klan. They also produced an 80’s style skit, recreating Colbert’s last day on the show — complete with a lot of not-so-veiled jokes about Donald Trump, Jared Fogle and Bill Cosby.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism you rely on. Make a gift today!
— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
