Don't Put Trevor Noah in a Basket

[@rostamsunny8802]

Trevor is a good choice. Hes done a fine job on daily show. Everyone keeps comparing him to Jon Stewart, which is natural. But i think hes done a good a job as can be done on the daily show.

[@jstos3675]

The Bevillian is a Stewart Elitist.

[@Cyberdactyl]

Trevor sucks boiled eggs. He is barely hanging on. The comedy channel needs to start considering someone else.

[@jstos3675]

Cyberdactyl = Trevor Noah hater and possible Stewart elitist.

[@arlom5132]

It's really hard to compare them. Stewart's an old Jew, who makes me feel very comfortable, and Trevor's a young South African, with a very different perspective. It's also a problem that CC is more mainstream now, so Trevor can't say some of the things John could. I still have high hopes for Trevor though.

[@rostamsunny8802]

+Bevill good. Difference of opinion is healthy.

[@Nygaard2]

I like Trevor's point about earning his own chant. I think he was a good choice for The Daily Show!

[@peculiarnewbie]

Yes

[@Niklback1]

Especially if it had a Harry Potter allusion

[@Niklback1]

Actually a tupperware full of chants. More is better

[@xniquilador]

The best one it seems... but what do i know. Point: he is an excellent representation of humor & common sense and wait for it... The American Dream. ahhhaa, How you like them apples. Very much, from what I see. (I'll continue my babbling in my head now, thank you very much!) :)

[@Hammerton32]

He also recognizes that the talented Noah may need a boost, and is happy to supply it!

[@amirmahdi.latifi]

Considering the pressure he had to take by replacing legendary Jon Stewart, I think Noah has done a marvellous job. keep going man.

[@Niklback1]

Trevor has been really enjoyable to watch

[@Tedphoenician]

Although his people do a lot less research than Jon's did.

[@diamond852]

Tedphoenician lolol what a silly comment. Trevor brings in view from the entire world and not just the US. It's hilarious how people can't just accept that he is doing a great job.

[@burton188]

I have to admit, I was in such mourning after John left the Daily Show, I wasn't ready to accept Trevor. I needed time, space, and a place to grieve. Now that I have come to terms with everything, I gotta say Trevor Noah is pretty great. I love that he's from South Africa as well; just having a outside perspective is cool.

[@dsmithers944]

Pretty great?? He plays the race card all the time and makes fun of black people shooting each other in Chicago. He's a failed comedian.

[@woodstpreuxpaul4396]

He's great period,u realise that u don't have to watch him,right?

[@STAWSKINATOR]

+dsmithers944 "He's a failed comedian" Oh, yeah he's such a failure that he hosts the Daily Show; one of the most watched comedy shows on TV.

[@dsmithers944]

BryceStawski the ratings have plummeted since he took over

[@retiredjuggies361]

If you take the outlier of when jon announced his final month of DS (I mean, who wouldnt tune in to that retirement hype?), aside from the slippery slope of August-Sept 2015, both the DS current rating and exposure is at its highest record.. and still remained the highest of any comedy-news.. And race card? Wut now, so it is perfectly fine when Jon often pull his jewish card cuz it is funny for whites to do so, whereas it is not allowed for trevor cuz he is actually black talking about blacks?

[@asimdeyaf]

[@robroy25]

[@PristinePerceptions]

Ginger ice-cream is disgusting. I don't think anybody would like it ... oh wait.

[@romanfox5368]

Because black people are racist.

[@benmessenger3238]

"No you can't say full of black people because then it means they contain the black people" I'm amazed this line didn't get a huge laugh! Honestly that line is absurd and hilarious, witty enough to be a line from Seinfeld but totally off the cuff.

[@menacedemort2878]

I laughed so hard to this line

[@ApemanMonkey]

I don't get it.

[@benmessenger3238]

It's absurdity. He's implying someone will think you are talking about imprisoning or enslaving black people using tupperware...

[@ApemanMonkey]

Ben Messenger I got what he was implying, and I love absurd humor, but I just didn't think it was funny. His delivery is extremely lacking.

[@AppleCore360]

4:34 Did Trevor just stump Colbert?

[@eszee7474]

I thought the same. For the first time, I see Colbert stumped. Love these two. They are so funny!

[@arlom5132]

Yes!

[@renegade5130]

hey

[@STalvacchia]

I didn't really see it as getting stumped. I saw it more like Trevor's nonsense had nose dived so hard that Colbert, with all of his wit and charm, couldn't think of any direction to take that. I loved the Daily Show for over a decade and I was actually excited to see Noah take over. He has funny stand up. But I found this interview awkward as hell and most of the DS interviews now to be pretty weak. He always spends way too long complimenting the guest instead of asking interesting questions. Some have been alright, but more misses than hits. The Carson debate was terrible. Ben Carson somehow ended up looking more sensible afterwards.

[@FlyingPastaLin]

When Colbert said, "let me try", I knew he just walked right into it.

[@MissJ224]

I think Trevor needs to do Trevor and not John Oliver. Trevor doesn't swear, Trevor doesn't get angry. Trevor is sweet and friendly and smiles.

[@anevoultionarylevelaboveg9202]

[@t10god]

I think Trevor is a great replacement of Jon.

[@BilegerantNinja]

Remember that Jon was on air for like 10 years. If you can find it, watch his first couple years. He learned and grew to what he was when he left. Trevor needs the same time. Editing to add that i think Trevor is fantastic right now. I freaking love his show. Just, for the people saying he doesn't have that Je ne sais quoi Jon had, im saying the only difference is time and experience.

[@anobjectiveninja]

Trevor Noah is great... But, I don't think Jon can have a replacement at all. That guy was like a god compared to Trevor, John Oliver, Colbert, etc.

[@the-chillian]

Jon also didn't take over for someone whose tenure on the show could be described as epochal. Craig Kilborn was nowhere near as influential as Jon grew to be. Even a relatively low-key Jon Stewart, as he was at first, didn't feel disappointing by comparison. But Stewart grew into such a gargantuan figure that _anyone_ following him was going to seem a little inadequate no matter how brilliant. That's an impression that will fade with time too.

[@caseyb1346]

I don't think Trevor is as funny, but he has a very soothing way of speaking. Stewart made you feel like the world was going to end. Trevor makes you feel like its all gonna be ok.

[@bluewrenreilly129]

I think it is fast fading if it hasn't already.My feeling is Trevor Noah is headed for great things as long as he always stays true to himself.
