Behind the scenes with Trevor Noah

60 Minutes goes backstage as "The Daily Show" comedian fine-tunes his jokes — and Lesley Stahl finds herself walking right into one of them.

"60 Minutes" is the most successful television broadcast in history. Offering hard-hitting investigative reports, interviews, feature segments and profiles of people in the news, the broadcast began in 1968 and is still a hit, over 50 seasons later, regularly making Nielsen's Top 10.

Standup is Trevor's best talent. He's brilliant. His sets are worth seeing over and over. Hilarious intelligence.

I had the pleasure of attending "The Daily Show". The great thing is the interactions with Trevor before the show and during the commercial breaks. He is very warm and friendly, and does not miss a beat. Loved the Netflix documentaries of his stand-up shows. Its on my Life List to attend one of his stand-up shows in person.

Keep shining Trev, you are an inspiration to millions.

Travor Noah is inspired by the conversations he has with people he knows or doesn't know and that's what makes his comedy interesting, drawn from everyday life. He reminds me of the best comedian in sub-Saharan Africa called Jean Miché Kankan who was inspired by the conversations he had with his entourage. Such comedians do not invent anything and can improvise at any time because they are real facts.

I love this man. He is so talented !! When Jon announced Trevor as taking over the daily show I was like WTF !? who ?? But he stepped into the role, made it his own and has continued to impress me show after show.

IT’S CRAZY HOW IT TOOK A SIMPLE CONVERSATION WITH LESLIE A MADE JOKES OUT OF THEM. TRULY GENIUS

A legend is born. His interactions with people and his understanding with individuals allow him to understand language and culture and his strengths in that makes him entertain us over and over. Kudos 👍

Trevor is just one of the most charismatic and genuine show hosts ever. We just love him.

I liked seeing behind the scenes, and the chat with friends. It is a refreshing glimpse which I enjoyed.

In order to find a replacement for himself, Jon Stewart had to come across someone who 1. had natural talent for comic improv, 2. had the ability to see things objectively, from a US but also a non-US perspective. 3. had an international dimension to him/her, with knowledge ABOUT the world, and not just USA. That's what Jon's show was essentially about and that's why it was also aired for non-US audiences through CNN International across the world. And that's why Trevor was the natural choice, being all 3 in one 😉😉
