On last night's THE DAILY SHOW, when host Jon Stewart feels uncomfortable pitching his own movie 'Rosewater' on the show, he uses a pot of English tea to summon the obvious candidate to step in as an alternate host. Later, Jason Jones and Tim Greenberg describe the series of events that culminated in "Rosewater," beginning with the filming of a segment in Iran with Maziar Bahari.

Below, check out last night's return of John Oliver to the Comedy Central show!

About THE DAILY SHOW:

One anchor, several correspondents, zero credibility.

If you're tired of the stodginess of the evening newscasts and you can't bear to sit through the spinmeisters and shills on the 24-hour cable news network, don't miss THE DAILY SHOW with Jon Stewart, the nightly half-hour series unburdened by objectivity, journalistic integrity or even accuracy.

The Emmy and Peabody Award-winning Daily Show takes a reality-based look at news, trends, pop culture, current events, politics, sports and entertainment with an alternative point of view. In each show, anchorman Jon Stewart and a team of correspondents, including Aasif Mandvi, John Oliver, Wyatt Cenac, Jason Jones and Samantha Bee, comment on the day's stories, employing actual news footage, taped field pieces, in-studio guests and on-the-spot coverage of important news events.

THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART -- it's even better than being informed.
