Jon Stewart's Final 'Daily Show' Message: B.S. Is Everywhere


The hashtag #JonVoyage has been trending for the past few days in anticipation of Jon Stewart's last day at the 'Daily Show' desk. The day officially (and unfortunately) arrived last evening to say good-bye to one of the most influential people in comedy and news.

To say Stewart will be missed is a tremendous understatement. Who we will look to for the amazing comedic take on foreign policy? Or who is going to yell at Donald Trump for one, going to La Famiglia for New York pizza, and two, eating it with a fork! And of all things, we would loved to have just seen his reactions and commentary to last night's first GOP Debate.

The list is far too long to name every contribution he has made to the world of comedy, and it certainly showed on last night's episode. It seemed as though there hadn't been that many famous faces on television since the SNL 40th Reunion. Everyone from Judd Apatow, to Steve Carrell, to Hillary Clinton came back to send off Jon Stewart.

It is tough to pick the best moments from last night's epic show, but below are a few of our favorites.

1.) Correspondent greatness
Every correspondent that has graced the 'Daily Show' stage was on hand to thank Jon Stewart for giving them the opportunity to work with him. Ed Helms, Samantha Bee, Steve Carrell, Olivia Munn. You name it, they were there.

2.) Trevor Noah got Stewart's measurements
It's certainly sad to see Jon Stewart leave, but his legacy and inseam will forever be remembered. Both hosts had a hilarious exchange as Noah started to take measurements of the stage, and Stewart himself.

3.) Haters said goodbye
Jon Stewart made a few frenemies throughout the years and they were all present to bid him a fond farewell. From John McCain to Bill O'Reily, Stewart managed to get his haters to love him.

4.) Stephen Colbert
It's safe it say everything was going smooth until Stephen Colbert decided to come out and give one of the most sincere, and heartfelt goodbye's on television. If it didn't a bring a tear to your eye, check your ducts. The serious and sweet moment came from Colbert as he thanked Stewart for his mentorship, and giving him the ability to get his start in the world of comedy.
