As Jon Stewart prepares to depart the Comedy Central show after 16 years as host, the Internet has gifted us with a time-lapse video of Stewart’s run on the series, chronicling nearly two decades in two minutes.
The video allows us to watch in awe as Stewart transforms from bright-eyed newcomer to, well, not so much. It’s like “Benjamin Button,” except in reverse, a lot shorter and more entertaining.
Marvel in the evolution of Jon Stewart by watching the video.
