Various guests and correspondents at The Daily Show have spent the last month highlighting various aspects of Jon Stewart's 16-year run as host. On Wednesday night's penultimate show, correspondents Jessica Williams, Jordan Klepper, and Hasan Minhaj dropped the pretense of theme and celebrated Stewart, "a man who was on TV." What that looked like in real life was some three minutes of Stewart's best impersonations — there's Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, generic New Jersey Italian-American, and Lindsey Graham, among others — plus a delightful look at the chyrons that made Stewart look bad. For good measure, the Daily Show staff had one last chyron to send Stewart off in Daily Show style. You can watch below. Peter Weber
