Comedy Central confirmed on Monday that comedian Jon Stewart has signed an agreement to remain with 'The Daily Show' for the next several years. Under the terms of the extension, Stewart will continue to host the program on Monday nights and serve as an executive producer through December 2028.

This extension ensures that Stewart will remain a fixture on the network throughout the next presidential election cycle. Since returning to the show in a part-time capacity, Stewart has anchored the Monday night broadcasts, while a rotating group of correspondents and guest hosts manage the remainder of the week's episodes. The network's announcement solidifies the current production structure that has been in place since Stewart's return to the desk earlier this year. No changes to the show's format or the current rotation of guest hosts were announced alongside the contract extension.
