The much anticipated and long wait for Trevor Noah to take over "The Daily Show" finally arrived last night, and for the first time in over 16 years, a new anchor officially took over the seat of the legendary political comedy satirist Jon Stewart.

What was immediately evident on Noah's debut, according to Deadline, is that the show is completely different but very much the same. There have been a few notable changes to the set but not so much that the show is any different. There have also been a few differences to make note of in Noah's routine but still in the same taste as his predecessor.

Stewart was always seen scribbling weird notes on a sheet of paper at the opening of his show on Comedy Central, but Noah abstained from that.

He also took the time to pay tribute to Stewart and pumped a little comedy into the bit as well.

After calling Stewart "our political dad," he added, "It's weird because Dad has left. And now it feels like the family has a new stepdad -- and he's black. Which is not ideal."

He even got a few jabs in about immigrants doing the work Americans don't want to do, such as himself.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Noah then went on with his debut monologue, ending the segment with, "To you, the 'Daily Show' viewer, both new and old -- at home and on your phone -- thank you for joining us, as we continue the war on bullsh*t."

The second segment, Noah did what everyone was waiting for: a segment about the John Boehner resignation with a correspondent live. Of course, needless to say, they traded pot shots back and forth on the situation in classic satirical style.

What would "The Daily Show" be without its classic political jabs? That may not be the case with the Pope, but he still featured the headline news in delicious style.
