The Jon Stewart Show

Talk Shows

Before his hugely popular program on Comedy Central came along, Jon Stewart cut his teeth in the talk show realm with this late-night offering, which followed the genre's same basic formula -- an opening monologue, and then interviews with celebrities and local personalities. It was unique, however, in that it featured musical guests who were largely ignored by other talk shows, including Warren Zevon, Slayer, Faith No More and Marilyn Manson.
