Comedy Central has released a 30-second trailer for the upcoming season of _The Daily Show_ with Trevor Noah. The comedian was crowned the show’s new host after Jon Stewart announced his retirement and aired his [emotional](http://time.com/3988456/jon-stewart-daily-show-signs-off/) final episode just about two weeks ago. As Kanye West’s song “Power” plays, the dapper comedian is seen adjusting his chair as the tag line “Same Chair, Different A\*\*” flashes across the screen.

Trevor Noah will officially take over _The Daily Show_ on Sept. 28.
