guest host, fear not: Current correspondents and contributors are set to be part of the anchor rotation as well.has had guest hosts in the past, executive producer and showrunner Jen Flanz tells Vulture that, as far as she can remember, “This is the first time we’re really having outsiders into our house.” The nature of Noah’s relatively sudden departure is also unprecedented in the show’s history: It now faces its longest stretch ever without a permanent host.

Indeed, while Comedy Central and Paramount execs have “general thoughts and a thesis” about what they want the post-Noah era to look like, McCarthy says they view the upcoming months of external and internal guest hosts as a chance to experiment. “This is an opportunity to test different models and formats,” he says. “And we’ll do that to give ourselves the time to plan over the next few months before we really begin to lock in on what the next chapter’s going to look like.

And the exciting thing about this time is that it’s blown the whole thing wide open again, and we can experiment.”The Daily Show
