Looking at UK TV schedules, it seems that we're getting the Jon Stewart
episodes of The Daily Show, but *only* the Stewart episodes.

Comedy Central UK had dropped episodes sometime last year, even though they
only aired on Comedy Xtra (their second channel here) at around 3.00am in
the morning, around 24 hours after episodes aired in the US. Obviously,
ratings at that time were basically zero, and Paramount probably saw it as
too much hassle to even air in the middle of the night.

In practical terms it meant that viewers couldn't realistically watch
Monday's episode until Wednesday sometime. The new Monday episodes look
like they're getting shown at 11.00pm on Tuesdays.

Still if Stewart is regularly throwing forward to later in the week
episodes, that's going to be a bit weird. Personally, I do miss those great
Jordan Klepper bits. I know there's YouTube, but CC tend to geo-block
everything so I have to fire up the VPN.
