For 14 years, Jon Stewart has presided over the most influential fake-news program of our time. But as Stewart steps back from his Daily Show duties, taking a three-month leave to direct his first feature film, correspondent John Oliver will take over as fill-in host.

Monday, June 10, at 11 p.m., Comedy Central
