Desi has absolutely been killing this. She's fantastic.

[@chadholmes3956]

I been waiting for Desi to take the seat, and 100% have not been disappointed!

[@13orrax]

Why does she dress like she knows what a church is?

[@muellerphyllis]

I agree 💯 she’s funny and smart!!

[@paultaylor4951]

I prefered Sarah Silverman.

[@ladychiere]

I want her there permanently!

[@nicolesaenz2933]

The guests that have been on for Desi's week have been absolutely chef's kiss! This line-up of passionate, empathetic, talented women is so appreciated

[@anarkyst9595]

Ditto

[@lordbuddybear]

But it was all softball. Not meaning that it wasn't in other weeks as well, but Trevor could always give it a deepness I miss since he's left

[@oneirishpoet]

@@lordbuddybear agreed 👍

[@wshwe]

Desi is on fire! ❤

[@r8chied770]

Sophie Bush is a breathe a fresh air. She makes me want to be and do better. What a truly radiating human. Grateful for her light.

[@betamasego]

You have been an incredible anchor Ms. Lydic

[@aureliusmcnaughton6133]

Hands down the most stimulating and inspiring interview since Trevor left. Desi is totally stepping up to Jon's legacy of thought-provoking social commentary perfectly mixed with high-level wit and humor. I think it's time we had a female in the upper ranks of late night comedy. Vote Desi for host of TDS!!❤🎉🌠

[@lubnachitalwalla]

Desi’s real personality is the exact opposite of her sarcastic daily show character. She is warm and sweet and genuine. The fact that I was convinced she is really her saracasmo persona is a testament to her amazing humour and acting ability.

[@asrexproductions]

Stewart used to say that his wife didn't watch "The Daily Show" while he was host because it was "too smarmy." I think that persona is kind of just the gig.

[@DvdFrlng]

Sophia you're connecting with me too. Keep your heart right where it is, and never give up that right to express yourself. Luke 🇺🇸💫

[@DoubleO7-11]

Seeing Sophia reminds me that I don’t wanna be anything other than what I’ve been tryna be lately 🤗

[@princessathena2271]

GavinDegraw taught me that

[@sweetheartkelly12]

Genius

[@shannon8765]

❤️❤️LOVE THAT SHOW

[@hall1739]

Hmm, she reminds me that part of where I'm going is knowing where I come from.

[@restlessly12]

😁👍🏼

[@MsRedsphere]

I love Sophia Bush and everything she works for in our country.

[@historychannel365]

Sophia is the best; I'm so happy Desi invited her. All of Desi's guests this week were wonderful.

[@sleepinglionarchives]

She was a delight. What a cool, positive person

[@michaelsalovaara567]

What I respect about all the guest hosts is what they bring to the table. It is hard to say who brought more laughter, it’s a matter of degrees. They all bring their thing. ❤

[@SinginTheDream]

Sophia Bush is such a radiant light. So glad to see her on talk shows like this talking about her passions!

[@ericvanvlandren8987]

All love for Desi and Sophia!!!

[@53gardengnome]

They really need to just rotate each week with Roy, Jordan, and Desi. Over and over. They each pick such unique and different guests.

[@lpd411]

Dear @ComedyCentral , if you give Desi Lydic a permanent spot as HOST on the Daily Show i promise to watch the show not only nightly but several times a day. Thank you in advance.

[@Kishabwc]

Wow I am watching One tree Hill on Hulu right now watching the show for the first time. I've even listened to a couple of episodes of their podcast Drama Queens. This is so cool!

[@LXSeaV]

Sophia's the best -- so glad Desi had her on. Loved all of Desi's guests this week.

[@julsca3738]

“Having a platform is a privilege”

[@cerebralideas]

This was wonderful! Desi is absolutely, positively amazing! Please, please, please, give us more Desi!!

[@deeprecce9852]

Desi Lydic is so versatile..hope she is here to stay!

[@Ohanarhythmz]

Yeah I have to admit she's funny, very likeable, also very serious about what's she's passionate about and she's funny af.

[@pdxrick7804]

Seriously....hire Desi as the new full time host. She has won the competition.

[@MrSidney52]

Really loving Desi's shows. Sophia sounds like an involved, level headed, young lady, respect.

[@rgwak]

The rotating guest host thing is so amazing, both with the other correspondents and non-Daily Show folks. Desi is crushing it this week too! 😝

[@smalls9852]

Great interview. Sophia brings up a great point about where you can do the most to help people. Seems like our government consistently proves to not be that place. And it is beyond sad.

[@pipersall6761]

Wonderful interview with Sophia Bush and her excellent work and ideas. And thank you Desi for another great show!

[@stevepower6616]

I love Dasi as the anchor, but I also loved all of the Daily Show regulars. I hope they just rotate them all week after week...forever!

[@betagemslostmedia607]

Desi gets the job --

[@FelipeKana1]

She could! I'm between her and Hasan, if we ever get to vote

[@worschtebrot]

I appreciate that you started cutting the applause short. That makes it much easier to follow the conversations. Thank you!!

[@sunshine3914]

Never heard of her, but she’s extremely & instantly likable.

[@oneirishpoet]

Same here, I have no idea who she is but seems smart and decent and kind

[@Washougalite1]

Same.

[@kalilahrichardson6711]

Love, love LOVE Desi!! Please be the new host! 🙏🏽💞💕💞💕

[@catherinerobson5482]

You ladies rock....so happy to tune into see you and hear you- yeah your perspective.

[@BasiCitizen]

Desi has been crushing it this week.

[@prcbras]

Sophia is such a light. i do hope she runs for President one day

[@bunnymad5049]

A woman actually getting an award for actually doing something for us all. Love this show. Funny and touching.

[@courtneywingate44]

Desi is amazing. Keep her as host. Also, I would totally vote for Sophia for president.

[@erinthrockmorton9678]

Two thumbs up for Desi! And Sophia Bush for President!

[@joannbisnath6738]

Really inspiring and love Desi’s quick wit

[@nubiana75]

Sophia rocks! Such a wonderful role model

[@Rkcuddles]

So much love! Keep at it yall.

[@smolapril]

Sophia Bush is such an inspiration ♥♥♥

[@andrewtarr7487]

I agree with most of the comments here about who should get the job, but I feel like Hassan is being overlooked. I really thought his week was tight.

[@KM-rt5jj]

💯

[@oneirishpoet]

He's ok but always seems a bit shouty to me, plus I think the Daily Show MUST have a female in the anchor chair, or maybe three? 🤔

[@Marijuanifornia]

You will accept whoever they give you because you have nothing else to believe in. Every comment every week has been the same. "Host A deserves to be the permanent host! They're the best!" Next week, "Host B deserves to be the permanent host! They're the best!" Next week, "Host C deserves to be the permanent host! They're the best!" See the pattern? This is a country with no purpose or direction, scrambling desperately to find anyone or anything to believe in.

[@palakperiwal8702]

I am waiting for Dulce. I think se will be amazing.

[@WindsorMason]

​@@Marijuanifornia there are different people that resonate with different guest hosts, the comments are not all by one person, and all of those individual people are allowed to have their own opinions about who they enjoy seeing in the seat.

[@chrisray1567]

The daily show should keep the format of rotating hosts every week. It works for SNL.

[@FredRoxstar]

Always liked Sophia's voice

[@Zig_Was_Here]

Desi is definitely top notch!

[@IMCPstar]

Awesome, awesome, awesome host & guest. One of my favorite pairs 🥰

[@kevinhamilton2403]

I'm glad you made it through Sophia.

[@chino3796]

Desi & Klepper for co-hosts.

[@chriswood7798]

If it's not Desi or Klepper I'll be so mad.. better be Roy if not them.

[@anarkyst9595]

Don't forget Hasan and Wanda Sykes

[@Ohanarhythmz]

#1 keep the hosts from the show rotating every week. #2 make Jordan KePpler the permanent host. #3 make Roy the permanent seat as host. They all deserve recognition and applause. Very much appreciated by all ur fans. You all give us joy when we need it the most. Thank you

[@irubberyouglueonethousand5384]

I want more Desi !!! 💯

[@udemeudofia4153]

Sophia Bush. Loved her when she was in Chicago PD

[@lauranydb7979]

she should be the primary host

[@babybliss834]

I never heard of Sophia Bush before, but she seems to be an amazing woman.

[@HWolfe]

I think she's one of the (President bush gene line, type of Bushes. I'll have to check.

[@libbybertrand9320]

Fantastic interview😄👍🏼

[@The_R-n-I_Guy]

Awesome stuff. Never watched One Tree Hill, but Sophia is brilliant

[@Banquet42]

It's a bit cheesy and possibly dated these days but it was very entertaining and managed to hit on some important topics.

[@darinz7182]

Desi has been the best so far. I thought Roy Wood Jr would walk away with this gig, but Desi deserves it if this is what we can expect.

[@AIChameleonMusic]

Gather round, all you brave and bold For a tale of terror, so chilling and cold Of a ghostly presence, so ominous and grim That haunts the halls, where once life did brim In an old, abandoned mansion, decaying and gray Lived a wealthy family, who one by one, passed away Rumors spread of a curse, upon the land and its keep And the ghost of the patriarch, who still roamed in his sleep One dark and stormy night, a group of friends did dare To explore the mansion, and see if the ghost was still there As they crept through the halls, creaking with each step A cold and eerie feeling, enveloped them in its grip Suddenly, a shadow appeared, a figure so tall and pale With eyes that glowed, like embers in a gale It let out a haunting cry, that echoed through the walls And the friends knew then, they were not alone in these halls They ran and they screamed, but the ghostly presence gave chase Its howls and wails, a reminder of death's embrace They stumbled and fell, as the ghost closed in Their fate was sealed, by the curse of their sin For they had dared to enter, a place where they did not belong And now they were lost, in the ghostly presence's throng So heed this warning, if you're ever drawn To explore the mansion, where the ghost still wanders on.

[@charlesrobinson7469]

Desi should be the new Host, She's ready. I desperately wish Sophia would come back to Chicago PD. 👍

[@ms0824]

It should definitely be one of these top correspondents. Cast your votes. A. Desi B. Roy C. Jordan D. Hasan E. Write In Candidate

[@jd190d]

Hasan, but I really liked Desi as well.

[@lauranydb7979]

Desi, Klepper likes to be out in the field or I would say he is 2nd.

[@kellysikula]

C so far,,,, E. Dulce

[@monikac8566]

Hasan, Desi, Sarah Silverman

[@ms0824]

@@monikac8566 I love Sarah so much!!!! But idk, I want one of the OGs in that spot. That's just me.

[@DTay-bn2ro]

Yessss a awarded Weapon 🎉🎉❤

[@nannerz1994]

She's so right its still so toxic

[@cocococo1213]

Yes, but so much more toxic in the past. But all needs to end, for sure. ( I mean the further back you go, the worse things were)

[@oneirishpoet]

@@cocococo1213 yep it helps to have some perspective, sadly humans will soon be extinct due to ignorance and greed...we've got 10, maybe 20 years before complete ecological and economic collapse

[@Familylovenw]

I totally agree. Go Desi! 😊

[@bradgillette9253]

Just... yes.

[@MrBogus213]

Sophia's political energy is in the right place (says this white guy lol). I can always appreciate when someone acknowledges they understand that they're faced with problems and part of other problems. And when they move forward from that understanding. She seems like a nice person to be around.

[@OfDeath]

Love this!

[@TengAi21]

Brooke Davis makes me actually wanna watch 1TH at some point. It's actually on my TD list. One day. Who knew Brooke was so deep and intelligent. lol

The runner ups for the shows host list: #1: Chelsey Handler #2: John klepper #3: Wanda Sykes

[@Xgmzydyk]

I never realized Sophia was such a cool gal!

[@whoscares]

It’s so profoundly sad that we have to distinguish between having people who like other people as a need in our political system.. because she is totally right..many people (especially people that are right wing in politics) do not like people.

[@sinsincere5748]

Sophia & Desi are both amazing women!

Ooof! Desi just casually mentioning the woman who allegedly broke the interviewee's first marriage.
