Jon Stewart is coming back to a broken TV landscape
"Welcome back to TV, Jon Stewart.
It's gotten pretty gnarly since you were here.
Monday evening marks Stewart's return to "The Daily Show" — a program that meant a lot to a lot of people, including me, back in its heyday. But since Stewart left in 2015, the "Daily Show" audience has gotten very small, and very old.
When I pointed this out last month, I took pains to say that what has happened to "The Daily Show" has happened to conventional TV — "linear TV," as the industry calls it — in general: Multiple generations either have stopped paying for TV or have never paid for it at all. Some of them are spending time with streamers like Netflix; others are fully engrossed in YouTube and TikTok. A lot of people are doing both."
