It's time to replace Trevor Noah
Look, it's not that we have to be stuck with Noah. I mean, in every business it's like this: if you are not competent you get fired.
Noah is not smart enough, also pointed out by him saying things like 'I didn't expect there would be so much journalism involved', he brings down the ratings, and he is by far less funny than any single member of the old crew. The constant laughing about his own jokes doesn't help either.
Yes, nobody can replace Stewart, but at least do your best to find someone who *understands* the concept. Do your due diligence before making such a big move.
Comedy Central really screwed the pooch by not considering/ignoring/letting Samantha Bee leave. She was the perfect choice. Just look at her current ratings. By the way, she brought with her the two head writers from Stewart's team.
And about the old crew, look at the new crew. Someone like Trevor Noah attracts mediocre talent, mediocre writers and a mediocre production. That is why Jessica Williams is leaving this week.
There are enough smart not-too-young women and men who can do a much better job. But if they don't make me laugh out loud to begin with, then don't even bother.
