(New York, NY) — Jon Stewart is giving Comedy Central its biggest ratings in nearly six years. Paramount Global says nearly two-million people tuned into the cable network Monday night to see Jon Stewart return to The Daily Show, bringing the network its largest audience since March of 2018. Stewart left the satirical news program back in 2015, and spent much of Monday’s show criticizing both President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump for their advanced age. Stewart said, “They’re both stretching the limits of being able to handle the toughest job in the world.”
