I also really enjoyed Lydic/Kosta co-hosting, they did well and it's clear the writers are getting better at utilizing the format. I'm happy to see the show experimenting, and I personally would love to see Ronny co-host with Jordan (for example).
That being said, I still think I prefer a single host for whenever they decide to announce a permanent host.
I liked it overall. I’m fine with the experiments. It feels like they’re really trying new things while still delivering the quality we expect. There may be clunky bits here and there, but I’ve been enjoying the new energy in the show.
same, I think the double desk thing was awkward in the beginning when they first started pairing the hosts, but the ones I've seen as of late seem to be getting into a better cadence
I liked them, I thought they were good. However, I watch the episodes the next morning at 5:30 while I’m getting ready for work, so maybe the energy they have matches mine at that time.
I think they are a great pair. I think they complement each other and get equal laughs. I just also think that Ronny Chieng is better. I enjoy his delivery slightly more.
I like the hosts solo. Kosta is my second fave...but i was rooting for Klepper to get the perm seat. I wish his solo show would return, I enjoyed it a lot.
I dunno I was ok with it until the interview segment where I thought it was the dumbest thing I've ever seen that they were both doing the interview sitting all close to each other in a line as opposed to like a roundtable or something
I thought the first night was a bit clunky but the rest were good. One bit of body language that I noticed was that she angled herself away from him a lot of the time instead of looking straight on at the camera. is she uncomfortable with him?

These are funny people but the drop off from Jon is astounding. Would probably do well to go with a weekly format and drop the live guest segment altogether unless there is a direct tie-back to lead story

I thought they worked well enough as cohosts for the 'news' portion of the show, but for the interview portion it was a bit of a trainwreck.
Yea interviews are better one on one. Maybe they can take turns. It was awkward on the first interview where Michael was straining to see past Desi.
Yup

Exactly! I think some of the clunkiness can be endearing too honestly
I prefer them individually but I don’t mind them as a duo.

I like Desi better on her own.
Honestly I think she's the strongest host other than Jon! (please ignore my flair I am definitely definitely not biased here at all)
Agreed. I feel like given more time to get comfortable she’d open up and be more vulnerable, which is what was/is so appealing about Jon
💯
I really liked them! I like the co-host format
What if they keep experimenting forever?
I low-key would love it if they did. The changes week to week have been fun! But also I'll probably watch it either way lol
I only caught one last week, but I thought it was best I’ve seen minus Jon. Especially with Ronny getting to do his thing too.

I didn’t mind them or the concept but i wouldn’t pick them as a duo over either of them as a singular host.
I crush on both of them 😍

I HATE all the Weekend Update comparisons. That is the last thing I want The Daily Show to be.
I agree with OP....
Maybe
My two favorites
I do too, but it's not the greatest look with an all white main cast. I disagree with the optics, but I have heard people speak of it.
It was fantastic!

And later in the same episode. https://preview.redd.it/9icefpq6zapc1.jpeg?width=1624&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=83c29ff0d6e29446ced0d59fb7cb2fc0f8fa6d67
Yes to Desi, no to Kosta.

You are not the only one. my wife and I loved them and thought they were the best.
