Jon Stewart: The Real "End of an Era"


We seem to have a lot of endings these days as talk show hosts move off the stage or change places, but I for one will miss Jon Stewart of The Daily Show more than most of them. Like Bill Maher, he makes politics more palatable. 

Sadly, with his last show taping tonight at 6pm he will miss out on follow up to the clown car careening off a cliff otherwise known as the first republican presidential debate. Such a feast for comic news more so than real news. Maybe he will be the cherry on top of a crazy night.

Best wishes, Jon. You will be missed.

Update:  It was great seeing all the cast from over the years together again.  Stephen Colbert offered a heartfelt thank you to Jon for all of his work and support over the years.  Colbert later stated "That might be my favorite thing I ever did on the Daily Show, making Jon squirm."
