One of the most influential comedians/actors of our generation is Jon Stewart. The man who hosted The Daily Show for 16 glorious years left Comedy Central and the beloved show last year and ever since, fans have been dying to know what’s next for Stewart.

Well, the anxiety can come to a halt as it was announced earlier today that Jon Stewart has signed a 4-year production deal with premium cable network HBO. Stewart will be producing short-form digital content that will appear on HBO Now, HBO Go and other platforms.

At the moment, HBO Go is only available in the US and Latin American countries so if you’re a Jon Stewart fan based outside of these countries then you’ll need to find a different way to watch hbo streaming services — like using a VPN to change your location. Wherever you’re located, we’re sure you’re as excited as we are to be getting new Jon content!

Here’s what HBO and Jon had to say:

“Jon Stewart led a revolution that changed the face of TV comedy on the Daily Show,” said HBO programming president Michael Lombardo in a release announcing the news Tuesday. “He graced our network nearly 20 years ago, so we’re thrilled to welcome back his immense talents in this next chapter of his career.”

Jon Stewart:

“Appearing on television 22 minutes a night clearly broke me. I’m pretty sure I can produce a few minutes of content every now and again.”

Congratulations to Jon Stewart on his new deal! Are you excited to see what he cooks up?
