THE DAILY SHOW WITH TREVOR NOAH to Air Live During National Conventions

THE DAILY SHOW WITH TREVOR NOAH will telecast live on the final nights of both the Republican National Convention (Thursday, July 21) and the Democratic National Convention (Thursday, July 28), providing the first late-night commentary on the historic acceptance speeches of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. Each live episode is scheduled to begin at 11:00 p.m. ET. In addition, "The Daily Show" will simul-stream the first act of both live episodes via Facebook Live.

The two live episodes add to "The Daily Show's" extensive and unprecedented coverage of the 2016 Republican and Democratic National Conventions, the most-comprehensive and multiplatform experience of any late night show covering the quadrennial events. As previously announced, the show will feature increased convention programming, a unique on-the-ground activation in Cleveland, and an expanded reach across digital platforms Snapchat, SiriusXM and Amazon, striking new ground for late night talk shows.

Since its premiere, it is the most-watched late-night talk show among millennial men (18-34, 18-24) and #2 among all millennials. Multiplatform streams are up +22% for Noah's "Daily Show" vs. the comparable time period in 2014-2015 driven by massive increases across YouTube (+145%) and Facebook (+110%).
