When it was announced last year that Jon Stewart, the longtime host of “The Daily Show,” was at last returning to TV for a new series, fans rejoiced. Then they wondered: What is this show going to be? And when can we see it? We still don’t know the exact premiere date for the new venture, but Apple TV Plus has announced the show’s title, and general information about when viewers should expect it.
So, get ready: the show will be called “The Problem With Jon Stewart,” and it will launch this fall. OK, exactly when this fall we still don’t know, but that’s at least more detail than was included in the initial announcement of the multi-year deal between Stewart and Apple TV Plus.
