His run on the show was “the wildest journey,” Noah said . [Comedy Central](https://variety.com/t/comedy-central/)’s flagship program bid a low-key farewell to a small studio audience that gathered Thursday for the final broadcast of “ [The Daily Show](https://variety.com/t/the-daily-show/)” of his tenure. When “Daily” returns in mid-January, it will rely on a shifting group of guest hosts and correspondents who will lead each evening in duos and trios. Before any of that gets underway, Noah wrapped his tenure on the program. He told the crowd Thursday that they should be “celebrating” his departure, rather than bemoaning it. But the bulk of the evening belonged to Noah, who used the show’s last segment to try and make sense of a surreal seven-year journey during which he was plucked from near-obscurity in the U.S.
The South African comedian who replaced Jon Stewart in 2015 ended his seven year run on the Comedy Central program Thursday. Here's how it went down.
Instead of a big-name guest to finish out, his final conversation at “The Daily Show” desk was with friend and fellow comedian Neal Brennan. Noah give each of “The Daily Show” correspondents — Roy Wood, Jr., Desi Lydic, Ronnie Chieng, Michael Costa and Dulcé Sloan, along with contributor Jordan Klepper — a chance to poke fun at the host one more time. ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel — in his 19th season — is the longest-running late night host. (Noah, a rabid Liverpool fan, began hugging stage crew members when the Rodgers and Hammerstein tune played). Noah brought a more global view to the program (early in his run he memorably made historically biting comparisons of Donald Trump to African dictators). “Who do you think shaped me, nourished me and formed me from my mom, my gram, my aunt — all these Black women in my life. “It was a wild journey,” Noah said on his show. Younger viewers likely got to know Noah through social media sharing of his clips. Being Black and not from the U.S. ... Black women can’t afford to f— around and find out. The comedian was not widely known in the U.S. Nine months later he became the program’s third host as Stewart moved on.

He added: "After the seven years, my time is up, but in the most beautiful way, honestly. Noah took over the show in 2015. ... But after seven years I feel like it's time." "When I look at this now, I don't take it for granted, ever," he said, looking at the masked crowd. "They're a lot of the reason that I'm here." I still think it was a crazy choice, this random African," said Noah, who hails from South Africa.

In his final 'Daily Show' appearance, South African comedian Trevor Noah bid his audience farewell for now, not forever.
While later years would see Noah criticized for his tendency to “just talk it out as humans” during some tense political situations, the Daily Show host charted the show from a global perspective, allowing Noah to imbue his comedy with an earnest intent to see the good in others.

But Noah took the praise and the thanks with aplomb, continually redirecting the attention toward the audience and the executives in the audience who first chose him. “[You] brought diversity to late night,” he said, presenting Noah with his *literal* flowers.
