Roy's righteous indignation is both hilarious and touching. I think he's showing his support while making it clear how much he's going to miss Trevor.

[@luv4cat986]

I agree

well said

No one is gonna miss Trevor. He's got a team of 16 writers and is never accidentally funny...

Thank you Roy for doing this scene because I felt the same way when Trevor announce he was leaving the show, no one had any idea Trevor was even thinking about leaving. So this skit help ease the pain of Trevor leaving. This was also so very funny.

[@Khronogi]

Thought the same thing. Even thought "oh trevor, now it sounds like Roy somehow got you to quit"

[@Wood-In-My-Eye]

I really think it has to do with ratings and Paramount. I think him being able to travel again and go back to his roots, was just validation it was time to move on. One door closes and two open.

[@jimm.6542]

@@Wood-In-My-Eye Trevor is a remarkably intelligent human being. He’s done a great job taking over from Jon. I think he wants to do the show a service by passing the torch to a fresh face. I think he’s that kind of person.

I love how the audience is super hesitant on laughing, because they genuinely don't know whether or not Roy Wood Jr. is fully joking

[@poetiktearz]

I feel like it started as a joke but then he really got emotional, and then tried to make light of it again

[@theMLBfan]

Lame, overly sensitive audience as usual. They forget they're at a comedy and this is all for fun! They're just joking around.

The best part about this generation of the Daily show with Trevor Noah is his team. Tevor is amazing but every single member of his team is absolutely amazing and I am genuinely curious where all of them will be after Trevor leaves.

[@LiAnNaLoVe88]

To be fair Trevor, you don’t get people this mad about you leaving unless you meant that much to them ❤

[@cwill30665]

❤ absolutely

[@MzC00ki327]

This was deeply therapeutic. Roy said what he said, but he spoke for all of us 😅

[@JonesJr876]

These were my actual feelings when i watched Trevor tell his departure. I was cryng too, how Trevor just shook up everyone's life and flow. I get it Roy.

[@lovejackson2830]

Thank you Roy for giving us this skit. It really conveyed the disappointment, hurt, Love, and appreciate that is felt all at once. Just like a child graduating and leaving the home, it's difficult to put a finger on exactly which emotion to deal with first. It's like you went through all if the stages of grief in 3 min. And with your acceptance, came healing. We will all miss Trevor.💙

[@Ti5qu4ntum]

This act is priceless... This is basically how we're all feeling about Trevor Noah's departure. But, This is nothing new... We just need to be thankful that we have so much talent out there, ready to keep us sane during such uncertain times... Thank you Trevor.

[@Woozlewuzzleable]

This was so funny to me because I was wondering if Ronnie knew about it because he looked confused to me and now I know.

[@Mister006]

Never make the mistake of trying to drink anything when Roy Wood Jr. is on the screen. I was choking on my tea for most of this segment! Dying laughing is a real thing!

[@martinhealy5989]

😂

[@Chawtho]

"Man, do your own traffic." Ha, definitely makes it easier for all of us diehards to prepare for his exit. I mean, well at least he didn't just leave...he's giving everyone time to adjust to his absence. As a fan, we'll have to adjust. This piece was definitely funny and necessary. That's comedic genius right there!

[@TheBasher-_-]

He said "You was out there with Dua Lapita and you was out there in the streets with that sanging girl" 😂🤣😂🤣

[@tktoadE]

Roy was on fire from start to finish!!! One of the best comedic pieces I have seen in my 55 years.

[@npatriciacastillo6671]

[@israelluhalima9642]

I don't think this was a joke, Roy is really hurt Trevor is leaving. I'm crying too.

[@monicabrandt6234]

Love Trevor and Roy...The comedic timing of Roy is awesome... I personally want Roy to have a bigger platform to showcase his comedy... Being a host doesn't fully allow you to go all in, prolly what Trevor misses about standup...

[@chezmoi42]

He is amazingly funny, but he is also an excellent, thoughtful host on Beyond the Scenes.
