After an episode dedicated to denouncing Donald Trump’s White House staff, Bee shared warm wishes of peace and comfort for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, and closed her show with a video of Jon Stewart. In the clip, the former _Daily Show_ host—who [slammed the now President-elect several times](http://time.com/3704321/jon-stewart-daily-show-fake-news/) during the election—soothes his feelings with a coloring book, a surprisingly popular [adult pastime](http://time.com/money/3941973/adult-coloring-books/). “It’s over, I’m coloring a turkey and it’s over,” he sings as he pencils in one of the feathers. “I’ve really turned into a very odd person, with the little horses and the coloring,” he observes. Watch Stewart explore his new hobby below. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4571514/jon-stewart-samantha-bee-video/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4571514/jon-stewart-samantha-bee-video/"},"headline":"Here's Jon Stewart Wistfully Coloring a Thanksgiving Turkey Now That the Election's Over","datePublished":"2016-11-15T16:47:01.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:38:41.567Z","description":"\"I'm coloring a turkey, and it's over\"","url":"https://time.com/4571514/jon-stewart-samantha-bee-video/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","Jon Stewart","samantha bee"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Ashley Hoffman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/ashley-hoffman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4571514/jon-stewart-samantha-bee-video/","name":"Here's Jon Stewart Wistfully Coloring a Thanksgiving Turkey Now That the Election's Over"}}]}] ```
