Comedy Central pulls old episodes of 'The Daily Show,' 'The Colbert Report' from website

It's a good thing Jon Stewart is back on 'The Daily Show' once a week because episodes of the program when he hosted for the first time around are suddenly much harder to find. This week, Comedy Central yanked hundreds of episodes of the late night show — along with other vintage programs like 'The Colbert Report' dating back decades — from the network website. Until Wednesday, ComedyCentral.

But if parent company Paramount Global is trying to drive comedy fans to its streaming service, Paramount +, they may be disappointed to find that only the last two seasons of 'The Daily Show' are available to stream — which means no episodes from Trevor Noah's time on the show from 2015 to 2022, or Stewart's original tenure, from 1999 to 2015. 'The Colbert Report,' which concluded in 2014, is not available at all on the service.
