Last night marked the final episode of THE NIGHTLY SHOW WITH LARRY WILMORE on Comedy Central. As previously reported, the late night talk show, which replaced the network's Stephen Colbert-hosted show, was cancelled due to low ratings.

During the opening monologue, host Larry Wilmore struggled to get feedback from his contributors until a special guest stops by - Jon Stewart. Check out the video!

During his appearance, Stewart praised Wilmore for his fine work as host of the show, sharing, "What you, my friend, were tasked to do, you have done and done beautifully. You gave voice to underserved voices in the media arena."

He added, "You started a conversation that was not on television when you began, and you worked with a group of people who you invited to that conversation to collaborate with you, to sharpen that conversation, and what you don't realize is that when you walk out of here, that conversation doesn't end."
