HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB

Jon Stewart is returning to The Daily Show, at least once a week for the next few months, but given that the show itself is a long way from finding a permanent host and that the best option is to apparently bring back the "fresh face" from 1999, it has people wondering what the future of late night talk actually is.

Prime Video has acquired a series called The Baxters, which will star Roma Downey and Ted McGinley. (Deadline)
