Season 9
🎬 161 Episodes 📅 2004 ⏱ 32 min
The Daily Show is a satirical news program that treats politics, media, and current events as material for comedy and criticism. It is not built around a continuous fictional plot; instead, its daily episodes combine topical monologues, interviews, field segments, and sharp commentary on public discourse. Its strength comes from reacting quickly to real events and turning serious headlines into accessible, pointed satire.
