It's odd that she felt she was "next in line" for The Daily Show........
Still, I would've chosen her over Trevor Noah who is just awful. The guy is South African with an accent which simply does not work for an American comedy show.
Anyways, back to the point.
I would've chosen Jason Jones as Stewart's successor.
Back to the thread topic: The idea that she was next in line is frankly offensive. No one is "next in line," this is not the public sector union where seniority rules apply.
The last few years of TDS, she seemed tired and really off and she was always overrated to begin with, her interviews were often stupid and she was witty, her timing was also off.
