Jon Stewart’s New Show Is a Flop

Jon Stewart’s new show on Apple TV+ “has failed to gain traction in its first season and lags far behind its competitors on broadcast and cable TV,” Bloomberg reports.

“Last fall, about 180,000 U.S. homes saw the show’s first episode within the first seven days… By the fifth episode, which aired in early March, about 40,000 U.S. homes tuned in, down 78% from the season premiere. By comparison, an episode in March of HBO’s Last Week Tonight with John Oliver was seen in 844,000 U.S. homes.”
