The show was originally created by Jon Stewart, who had previously hosted The Daily Show on Comedy Central from 1999 to 2015. Stewart signed a multi-year deal with Apple TV+ in 2020, and announced that he would return to television with a new show that would tackle current affairs and social issues. The show was titled The Problem with Jon Stewart, and was set to premiere in 2021 as a weekly series. The show was executive produced by Stewart and Richard Plepler, the former CEO of HBO who had also joined Apple TV+ as a producer.
The show featured Stewart’s trademark wit and humor, as well as his in-depth analysis and commentary on various topics, such as the pandemic, the climate crisis, the media, the military, the economy, and the political system. However, the show also faced some challenges and controversies during its run on Apple TV+. The show also faced some creative differences and conflicts with Apple TV+, which reportedly wanted to censor or tone down some of the show’s content or opinions. 
In 2023, the show was canceled by Apple TV+ after two seasons because of those differences, mainly regarding the shows coverage of AI and China. However, in October 2023, the show was quickly picked up by Horizon Television. This was because of the fact that Horizon Television offered Stewart full creative control of his show, as well as a larger budget and a wider distribution to network television and streaming. It would mark the first time Stewart hosted a late-night television show on a network. It is expected to air from 11:35pm to 12:35am starting from November 2023.
