Analysis: As host of “The Daily Show” on Comedy Central, Trevor Noah, whose last episode is Thursday, reflected America back to itself the way no other late-night host could.

The Trump years were a struggle for late-night comedy, as shows grappled with how to parody something that already seemed so unbelievable. Watching habits also changed; no longer did people need to wait until 11 or 11:30 p.m. to hear jokes when they could just catch up.
