Comedy Central

The Daily Show and Comedy Central have announced that, after a long search with many rumored candidates, Trevor Noah will succeed the retiring Jon Stewart as the host of the late night program. Noah, a 31-year-old stand-up comedian, has served as a correspondent for the show but, so far, has only made three appearances.

Did you know that Daniel Tosh, not Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert, is actually the highest-rated host on Comedy Central? Well, it's true. And perhaps the reason 'Tosh  is so successful is because the controversial comedian is willing to do things that more traditional TV hosts would never dare dream.
