Desi Lydic celebrated her 10th anniversary on The Daily Show Saturday by winning her second Emmy and telling reporters that for now, no one from the new leadership team at Paramount has told the show to cool it with the political humor.

“We haven’t been asked to change anything,” said Lydic to reporters after she won in the Performer in a Short Form Comedy category at the Creative Arts Emmys. “We aren’t holding back and we don’t intend to.”

The Daily Show comedienne was also asked to weigh in on the state of late night, especially given how The Tonight Show with Stephen Colbert will end its run next year.

“I sure hope” there’s a future for the genre, she told reporters. “I think there is certainly a need for catharsis right now and for laughter. We all need it. I’m hopeful that continues … We’re living in challenging times, that’s for sure. I feel so grateful I’ve been on The Daily Show for as long as I have. I sure hope we get to keep doing it.”

This is Lydic’s first Emmy in the Performer in a Short Form category. She shared the Emmy win for Outstanding Talk Series when the Comedy Central show won in 2024.

During her acceptance speech, Lydic said she watched “a lot of Fox News” to win Saturday. She also thanked the “Deep State” TV Academy.
