John Oliver began his first night hosting Comedy Central's The Daily Show last night. "Let's all acknowledge for a moment that this is weird. This looks weird, it feels weird, it even sounds weird," joked Oliver at the beginning of the broadcast. Check out highlights from the show below!
John Oliver will take over as guest host of The Daily Show WITH Jon Stewart on Monday, June 10 at 11:00 p.m. ET/PT.
