Jon Stewart came back toThe Daily Showin true Gen-Xer fashion, quoting the originalStar Warstrilogy.
Dressed in full Obi-Wan drag, Stewart appeared to help guest host Roy Wood Jr. go viral.
Feels sort of kingmaker-y, no?
Stewarts appearance during a guest hosts run feels like a seal of approval from the former Jedi master.
Stewart explained that he used to host the show, which bugged Wood out.
The Daily Showhad a white host?
he asked, puzzled.
Wood had been on a riff comparing Trump to Darth Vader, hence the Jedi robes.
But he objected to being shunted into the Luke Skywalker role opposite Stewarts Obi.
Luke Skywalker kissed his sister, Wood said.
Hed rather be Han Solo, which would make Stewart Chewie.
Plus, if hes Skywalker, does that make Trump his dad?
Did Trump kill Stewart?
In the sense that he was the death of satire, 100 percent.
RIP to satire, catchThe Problem With Obi-Wan Kenobion Apple TV+.
