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