Jon Stewart Reveals His Final Daily Show Guests

1 minute read

Jon Stewart has named his final three guests on The Daily Show, and it looks like the host is sticking with his own kind for the last week of his run. Fellow comedians Louis C.K., Denis Leary and Amy Schumer will sit opposite Stewart in the lead up to his finale next Thursday, the Washington Post reports.

Stewart has hosted big names in culture and politics in recent episodes, including President Obama, J.J. Abrams, Doris Kearns Goodwin and David McCullough. Plans for the final episode are naturally being kept under wraps, but many have speculated that Stephen Colbert will make an appearance. The show will last 50 minutes to squeeze in extra goodbye time, and Comedy Central will run a best-of marathon leading up to Stewart’s last episode on Thursday.
