And now, for your moment of yay!: Jon Stewart will perform in a HBO stand-up special in the near future, the premium cable network announced Wednesday.
The special will mark Stewart’s first comedy outing with HBO since 1996’s Jon Stewart: Unleavened.
Stewart previously had partnered with HBO for a short-form animated project which both parties recently abandoned, citing a more-complicated-than-envisioned production.
Since exiting The Daily Show back in August 2015, Stewart has poppedup on CBS’ The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, on which he retains an executive producer credit.
