Many younger voters are engaged by him.

But he cannot possibly hold a candle to a Stewart/Colbert tag team. Just impossible. And we need them.

he just isn't close enough to US politics, IMHO. And, his cadence seems to be very offputting? I love Larry Wilmore. Just wish he hadn't turned so many people off at the Correspondent's Dinner - way too overtly mean to people. He could have really taken his show to new heights.

...and I'm not sure why. I really like him, but I'm kinda "meh" on his show.

It's just that it's against the re-engineered Colbert Report, which, by re-engineering, I mean it had a hearty helping of Dave in it. A new juggernaut.

but I don't care for the panel in the last segment. I often fast-forward through it as people tend to talk over each other. Some of the humor is outstanding, but some is a bit sophomoric.

I have a hard time finishing his show, and you're right. It's that panel. I hope he tweaks it. He's a talent.

most episodes had two panel segments. Evidently someone realized that wasn't working. I'd like to see more like the first segment. Yes, Wilmore is really a talent and I'd rather see more of him than three or four people having a random conversation. The occasional "Nightly, Nightly" segments are absolutely stupid and painful to watch.

And I was actually impressed! I know it took a while for Stewart to find his groove after everyone said he'd never replace Craig Kilborn.

...but how does one follow Jon????

He could jump right back into it if he wanted to imo.

That reminded me how much I miss him. I think Trevor Noah is doing a great job, but Stewart is a tough act to follow.
