Comedian on “The Daily Show,” Roy Wood Jr. is saying his goodbyes to the show after Trevor Noah left the show last year.

He made a statement about his departure saying, “made the decision to move on” and showed some love to the show where he expressed that he has, “been able to pursue my comedic and political curiosities with some of the best writers, producers, crew and correspondents anyone could hope for.”

He also gave his thanks to all of the shows production team, Trevor Noah, all of the shows former host, Paramount and Comedy Central for allowing him to be able to have stand-up specials, have podcasts, write a film and be able to shoot a pilot TV show.

Roy ends his statement by saying “see what the future holds for me in the shifting sands of late night television, scripted comedy, and whatever else the comedy gods may have in store for me.”

Comedy Central execs saw Roy as possibly being the next host of “The Daily Show” as he is one of the most memorable correspondents on the show and the show has a long history of promoting people from the show to the next host.

The Daily Show came out and said, “Roy Wood Jr. is a comedic genius and beloved teammate.  His insights and hilarity helped us make sense of the 2016 election, the pandemic, and countless hours of Fox News. We thank him for his time with us and can’t wait to see what he does next.”
