    Ronny, Desi, and Roy should all host again!

      Look at how they are bringing back outside hosts for a second round even before all the current correspondents have had their own full week; Ronny and Dulce have only had two nights a piece thus far.

    Kal Penn good, Charlamagne bad, huge gulf between them in my estimation

      Scheduling new people every week is more lazy?

      Might as well. Nobody will watch. He’s horrible.

      Kal deserves a second shot though, he was definitely in the top third of guest hosts

        Did you know he worked for the White House? (Edit: I agree he just rides that idea too much)

      Not interested in a break. I do like the show. The writers are great and can make anyone sound funny. Kal would be okay by me. Charlemagne is not a comedian. Kind of a prerequisite for the show.

    I still want them to give it to Jordan Klepper.

      Totally respect your opinion and I’m gonna get fire for this but Jordan Klepper is so mid. I hate his segment where he makes fun of Trump voters - how does that help us win in an election in any way whatsoever. If Jordan wasn’t tall and white he wouldn’t be popular 👀

    The biggest factor, besides being funny, is that the new host is able to listen and then sound thoughtful when they speak. Both Jon & Trevor had that, and that’s what made them great hosts for this platform, IMO.

    With that in mind, out of the options available, I think Kal Penn has to be the choice.

    Is this run by the same people that did jeopardy?

    John just got canceled. Bring him back with a 50 million dollar deal. He will sign

    Whoever is running TDS currently is an idiot. They’ve completely bungled this hosting selection process.

    Personally think someone like Ziwe would be really fun, but if they’re not going to go with someone fresh they should just give it to Kal, he does well.

    Wild swings have done wonders in that studio.

    Fuck it, just hire Fern Brady and see what happens.
