As a fellow Brit, it seems appropriate for me to report that current Daily Show correspondent John Oliver will be getting his own “weekly topic comedy series” on HBO. This is likely based off of the success of his summer hosting stint on The Daily Show, which went remarkably well, and proved that Oliver definitely has the chops to host his own program.

This is pretty fantastic news, and we’re all very excited to see what wacky British antics John Oliver will get up to on HBO!
